W. G. Sebald meets Maggie Nelson in an autobiographical narrative of embodiment, visual art, history, and loss. How do the bodies we inhabit affect our relationship with art? How does art affect our relationship to our bodies? T Fleischmann uses Felix Gonzáles-Torres’s artworks—piles of candy, stacks of paper, puzzles—as a path through questions of love and loss, violence and rejuvenation, gender and sexuality. From the back porches of Buffalo, to the galleries of New York and L.A., to farmhouses of rural Tennessee, the artworks act as still points, sites for reflection situated in lived experience. Fleischmann combines serious engagement with warmth and clarity of prose, reveling in the experiences and pleasures of art and the body, identity and community.

Museum Jorn in Silkeborg, Denmark, commemorates the 50th anniversary of Le Corbusier's passing with an exhibition and an academic conference. The coinciding book will reflect both, the exhibition's content and the results of the conference. Le Corbusier (1887-1965) aimed for nothing less than changing the world and therefore called out for a revolution in architecture and society. His thinking and sometimes megalomaniac ideas have been, and remain to the present day, highly influential for architects around the world. This new book for the first time investigates in detail Le Corbusier's reception in Scandinavia, in Denmark in particular. The book's focal point is the connection between the Danish experimental expressionist artist Asger Jorn (1914-73) and Le Corbsuier. As a young student of art in Paris, Asger Jorn collaborated with Le Corbusier on the Pavillon des Temps Nouveaux at the 1937 Paris World Exposition. The young Jorn was fascinated by architecture--the most public form of art--in general and also followed closely Le Corbusiers building activities and his book publications. The book opens with four essays providing a survey of Le Corbusier as an artist architect. Further contributions examine Le Corbusiers influence on Asger Jorn and the younger artist's initial admiration for and later critique of the famous architect. They discuss Jorns position towards Le Corbusier in theory, and also look at relationships in both men's artistic practice, e.g. in poetry, book production, tapestry, etc. Another four essays deal withLe Corbusier's traces in Danish architecture and urbanism, his intellectual reception in Scandinavia, parallels between Le Corbusier and Jorn Utzon, and a comparison of the Arhus Brutalism and Le Corbusier. The book also features reprints of texts by Asger Jorn and an especially commissioned photo essay by the German experimental film director Heinz Emigholz of Asger Jorns Aarhus Mural and Le Corbusiers Villa Savoye.

In 1921 Sam Rodia, an Italian laborer and tile setter, started work on an elaborate assemblage in the backyard of his home in Watts, California. The result was an iconic structure now known as the Watts Towers. Rodia created a work that was original, even though the resources available to support his project were virtually nonexistent. Each of his limitations—whether of materials, real estate, finances, or his own education—passed through his creative imagination to become a positive element in his work. In The Modern Moves West, accomplished cultural historian Richard Cándida Smith contends that the Watts Towers provided a model to succeeding California artists that was no longer defined through a subordinate relationship to the artistic capitals of New York and Paris. Tracing the development of abstract painting, assemblage art, and efforts to build new arts institutions, Cándida Smith lays bare the tensions between the democratic and professional sides of modern and contemporary art as California developed a distinct regional cultural life. Men and women from groups long alienated—if not forcibly excluded—from the worlds of "high culture" made their way in, staking out their participation with images and objects that responded to particular circumstances as well as dilemmas of contemporary life, in the process changing the public for whom art was made. Beginning with the emergence of modern art in nineteenth-century France and its influence on young Westerners and continuing through to today's burgeoning border art movement along the U.S.-Mexican frontier, The Modern Moves West dramatically illustrates the paths that California artists took toward a more diverse and inclusive culture.
