Written English - Allen Jones - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Taking the form of a composition book – a classic style of American notebook – Written English is an Allen Jones RA artwork in book form. Over 40 pages, Jones playfully explores the English language, and its use… and misuse. “Conquest and trade allowed the English language to become the World’s lingua franca, perhaps because its phonetic and grammatical structure is more pliable than most languages,” says Jones. “Global, popular culture, advertising and newspapers have shown a creativity that has enriched and extended our English usage.” Jones was elected a Royal Academician in 1986. He is one of Britain’s most distinguished artists from the pioneering Pop Movement, whose paintings and sculptures are held in many important international collections, including: Tate Gallery and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC, the Museum of 20th-Century Art in Vienna, the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne, the Moderna Museet in Stockholm and the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. Written English is one of a collection of four artist’s books by Allen Jones that Black Dog Press is releasing in September 2022.

Form Follows Fiction - Luis Jacob - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

How do artists in Toronto visualise their sense of place? Are there particular ‘made-in-Toronto’ ways of thinking about the city? With work selected by internationally renowned Toronto-based artist Luis Jacob, Form Follows Fiction: Art and Artists in Toronto considers the ways in which artists see and understand their city, throughout a period of fifty years. Presenting a thematic clustering of works by 86 artists, the book is premised on the tendency of artists in the city to favour performative and allegorical procedures to articulate their sense of place. Four gestures—mapping, modelling, performing and congregating— serve as guideposts to a diverse array of artistic practices. The book is a constellation of symbolic forms, or memes, that repeatedly appear in the work of artists of different generations; it presents a panorama of the blueprints that artists have drafted over many decades to give form to life in one of North America’s largest cities. The book features work by artists such as Suzy Lake, Kent Monkman, Ed Pien, Roula Partheniou and Michael Snow, all of whom have previously published with Black Dog Press. It includes historical documents gathered from local archives, as well as contemporary ephemera.This title is published in partnership with the Art Museum at the University of Toronto.

Hardeep Pandhal: Inheritence Quest - - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Hardeep Pandhal: Inheritance Quest is the first monograph on Hardeep Pandhal, whose practice concerns the unsettling and transformative forces of migration, historical violence and cultural assimilation. Including images of the artist’s key works and QR links to view key videos online, this book offers multiple ways into his complex, multi-layered practice. The Glasgow-based artist works with an unusual fluency across various media, including rap, animations, embroidered jumpers knitted by his mum, sensitively rendered drawings of unsettling characters, airbrush paintings and installations. These works reference genres across a vast landscape of popular culture, from video games to cartoons, and from fantasy lore and mystical poetry to gothic horror and steampunk. In this book, Pandhal builds a luridly rendered world where the ghosts of empire slink alongside narratives of Tolkienesque fantasy; where game designer Hideo Kojima’s Solid Snake shares a backseat with an Uber Eats bag; and where personal memories of racist invective are untwisted into sinuous renderings of the headless figures of Sikh martyr Baba Deep Singh, or tottering troops of British-Indian sepoys. Beneath the surface of his visually seductive yet often disturbing imagery lies a lyrical ambition and allusive power that is literary in quality. Whether exploring the libidinal and orgiastic energies of empire, or the fantastical elements of his practice, Pandhal adeptly riffs on the immigrant experience in modern Britain. From the sung poems of the 15th-century South Asian mystic poet Kabir to Pandhal’s affinities and difficulties with contemporary fantasy – and that genre’s uncomfortable relationship with whiteness – this is an eclectic and erudite exposition of the relationship between race, place and art. Hardeep Pandhal: Inheritance Quest is commissioned by Anita Dawood. It includes critical texts by four writers: Zahid Chaudhary, Gabrielle de la Puente, Hammad Nasar and Jamie Sutcliffe. It also includes a conversation with artist and academic David Steans.

Colour Matters - Allen Jones - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

In this beautifully executed, concertina-fold book, Allen Jones RA explores the human form and how painting on a figure is a vastly different process, and has vastly different results, to painting from a figure. The first half of the book features detail photography of the artist’s sculpture series Waiting on Table . The second half concertinas out to reveal the front and back of one of Jones’s most prominent sculptures, A Muse , which can also be displayed as a wall hanging. For many years as a student, Jones had to draw from casts of Greek and Roman sculptures. Over time he developed a reverence for their idealised bodies, heightened by the tactile purity of the white marble. It seemed sacrilegious to him, therefore, to discover later that the marble was often painted over with colour. For many years as a student, Jones had to draw from casts of Greek and Roman sculptures. Over time he developed a reverence for their idealised bodies, heightened by the tactile purity of the white marble. It seemed sacrilegious to him, therefore, to discover later that the marble was often painted over with colour. “Painting on a figure is quite different from painting the figure” is an observation that Jones has grown to embrace, and one that has greatly informed his practice. Like the Romans, Jones has discovered that colour matters. Jones was elected a Royal Academician in 1986. He is one of Britain’s most distinguished artists from the pioneering Pop Movement, whose paintings and sculptures are held in many important international collections, including: Tate Gallery and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC, the Museum of 20th-Century Art in Vienna, the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne, the Moderna Museet in Stockholm and the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.

Morgan Howell at 45RPM - Morgan Howell - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Morgan Howell paints classic 7” singles and takes into account every crease, every tear, every imperfection—producing a one-off, truly unique artwork, almost identical to the owner’s original copy, but blown up, supersize, to 27.6 by 27.6 inches, and three-dimensional, with the spindle in the centre, as if the record is ready to play. This completely original approach has resulted in Howell attracting a cult following amongst art collectors and musicians alike—with paintings commissioned by the likes of Neil Diamond, Jude Law, Edgar Wright, and The Stone Roses'' Ian Brown, and major music labels selecting the artist’s work for display in their headquarters, indeed, Howell’s painting of David Bowie’s The Jean Genie is displayed at the Sony Music Building in London, and Yesterday by The Beatles has been shown at the Capitol Building in L.A. Morgan Howell at 45 RPM, published by Black Dog Press, beautifully documents 95 of Howell’s creations, from Tutti Frutti by Little Richard to Heart of Glass by Blondie, to Gimme Shelter by The Rolling Stones, to Waterloo Sunset by The Kinks. The artworks are shown in full, alongside evocative commentaries from fans of Howell''s work, including The Smiths'' Johnny Marr, Spandau Ballet''s Gary Kemp, comedian Al Murray, journalist Tony Parsons, actress Kay Mellor, Happy Mondays'' Shaun Ryder, producer William Orbit and composer Andrew Lloyd Webber. The book features Forewords by Sir Peter Blake and Andrew Marr, plus an in-depth interview with Morgan Howell, exploring his process as an artist and why, for him, music and art are intrinsically linked. With a format perfectly designed to fit on record shelves, this book is a must for vinyl junkies, music heads and art lovers everywhere. A who’s who of the music world, this compendium is a list of the most must-have records of the last century. – Art Daily

On the Road: Parking Markings - Allen Jones - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Allen Jones RA’s 52-page book On the Road: Parking Markings takes the reader on a graphic visual journey… by road. “Since roads were first bisected by a white line, a pictorial language has evolved that, in classic parlance, is the first or Primitive phase in ever-developing visual vocabulary,” says Jones. “Parking markings were introduced during my final years as a student. Produced with stencils, these marks are enlivened by human error and chance. “Because of increasing traffic during the 1960s a change was needed. Yellow represented a new and Classical phase, telling us what we should NOT do,” the artist continues. “Familiarity breeds contempt and by the 1990s the problem required desperate measures. Red, the colour of danger, anger and hell marked a third, Baroque phase in the developing language of road marking. “During the 1950s we were asked politely – in white. During the 1960s we were told – in yellow. During the 1990s we were shouted at – in red. Now the air – is blue.” Jones was elected a Royal Academician in 1986. He is one of Britain’s most distinguished artists from the pioneering Pop Movement, whose paintings and sculptures are held in many important international collections, including: Tate Gallery and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC, the Museum of 20th-Century Art in Vienna, the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne, the Moderna Museet in Stockholm and the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam.

Residue - - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Realism has been held up to scorn for its perceived attachment to linguistic transparency?the sense that an image can reveal the full truth of the situation or object it depicts. This skepticism was extended in the late 20th century with the rise of conceptual art and the development of critiques that proposed that, in a world pervaded with spectacular images, the task of the artist should be to deconstruct the systems through which images flow and provide critical considerations of the ways images act upon us. Residue: The Persistence of the Real is comprised of work that draws upon a documentary impulse and pursues the real as something that cannot be entirely reduced to representation, while at the same time acknowledging the mediating character of the mechanisms that shape perception. The book presents recent work in a variety of media?including photography, video and installation?by nine artists from Vancouver and elsewhere.

Morgan Howell 7": 100 Paintings of Classic Singles - Morgan Howell - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Morgan Howell paints giant versions of classic 7” singles, taking into account every crease, tear and imperfection of a record and its sleeve to produce a one-off artwork that is almost identical to the original copy, but four times larger and three-dimensional, with a spindle at its centre, as if the single were ready to play. This original approach has attracted a cult following among art collectors and musicians alike, with paintings commissioned by the likes of Neil Diamond, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Jude Law, Edgar Wright and Hans Zimmer, and major music labels selecting the artist ’ s work for display in their headquarters. Indeed, Howell ’ s painting of David Bowie’s The Jean Genie is displayed at the Sony Music Building in London, and his version of Yesterday by The Beatles has been shown at the Capitol Building in LA. Morgan Howell 7” is a new, updated paperback edition of the Black Dog Press-published Morgan Howell at 45rpm and features a total of 100 works, including several new pieces such as “Stand By Me” by Ben E King, “To Sir With Love” by Lulu and “I Want You” by Bob Dylan.

Produced to fit perfectly on a record shelf, this book is a must-have for vinyl junkies and art lovers everywhere.

Studio Time - - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

The ability to use imagination and envision future needs is crucial in art, design and architecture. Future thinking and making require imaginationand capability to create narratives for near and far futures and the capacity to compose proposals to meet the imagined future needs. Future-oriented creative practices also require future literacy—understanding the temporal continuum in which the future-oriented work is created, and being aware of underlying incentives, motivations and structures of the self-initiated works or commissions. Similarly, viewing or consuming the speculative creative works requires some level of understanding of the context of the works.Studio Time: Future Thinking in Art and Design approaches these questions with essays from international design and art thinkers, reflectiveshorter essays and a selection of art, design and architecture projects. The book consists of three parts that each focus on future fictions in art and design from different perspectives: future fictions and imagination in creative practices; future literacy; and future ethics. Each part consists of two essays, two practical, reflective contributions from artists and designers and a selection of art and design projects from practitioners around the world.The book is a closing chapter of Studio Future, which is one of the research studios developed by Belgium-based Z33 House for ContemporaryArt. Since 2012, Studio Future has focused on a variety of aspects on future oriented art and design practices through different research and exhibition projects, which have been accompanied by online and offline publishing.

Johnnie Cooper - - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Johnnie Cooper is the first monograph of the British artist’s work, joining a curatorial initiative over recent decades to undertake important re-evaluations of the careers of important twentieth- and twenty-first century artists such as Tess Jaray, William Turnbull and John Hoyland.Johnnie Cooper has, for the past half-century, devoted himself to a tireless investigation into the nature and potential of painting in his rural Worcestershire studio, constantly exploring new principles and processes.

Fractured Light - - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Fractured Light focuses on a key body of work by the British artist Johnnie Cooper, which was instrumental in his transformation from sculptor to painter. Throughout the 1990s, Cooper embarked on an industrious and experimental trajectory with paint and collage with a renewed dedication. These works on paper, made by layering multiple strips of paintings, were directly inspired by a series of large assemblage works he constructed during the late 1980s, when the culmination of his work in art education brought a new found freedom. The view from a new studio in rural Worcestershire conjured fresh inspirations and instilled a fascination with the ever-changing colour, shape and light values that fractured through a nearby woodland over the course of a day.

Points of Departure - - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

Points of Departure: Vera Frenkel Words and Works is the ambitious new publication to accompany an exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art (MOCCA), addressing Frenkel?s ongoing use of voice, character and storytelling throughout her practice. Whether making works that speak from the perspective of Vera Frenkel the ?storyteller?, Vera Frenkel the feminist artist or Vera Frenkel, one of many artists suffering from discriminating arts funding in Canada, Frenkel?s works consistently address the injustices and inequalities within contemporary art practice. Points of Departure: Vera Frenkel Words and Works acknowledges the artist?s influence on Canadian contemporary art and the importance of her early video works as well as addressing other core themes in her practice such as absence and presence, the use of language, artist?s copyright, and the marginalisation suffered by Canadan artists and minority populations alike. This Fall''s reinstallation of several pivotal works at the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art (MOCCA), Toronto will include Frenkel''s famous From The Transit Bar, 1992, which was first shown at Documenta 9 in Kassel and is now a part of the National Gallery of Canada?s collection. Other important works will include South to the Water, North to the Sky and Once Near Water.

Studios for Artists - - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

The form, function and future of the artist?s studio is the central focus of the collaboration and of this publication. The subject of studio provision is approached from the partners? different but entirely complementary roles and perspectives, as is their shared commitment to creating new models of support for students after graduation. Studios for Artists presents, through a series of written and visual essays, how the partners formalized and intensified their work, resulting in amongst other initiatives, the design and construction of an award-winning studio building and the establishment of a sustainable graduate studio program. Including a photo?essay by Hugo Glendinning, the book provides a remarkable insight into the world of art education and the artist in London at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It reveals not just the ongoing challenges faced by art education, but also the threat to affordable studio provision where spiraling property prices threaten this vital, but generally unacknowledged, part of the contemporary visual arts ecology.

Petal - Bex Day - Bog - Black Dog Press - Plusbog.dk

PETAL is a photographic series by Bex Day, created in celebration of the uniqueness of the vulva. Each vulva pictured in the collection is covered by either a single petal or flower to simultaneously reflect their shared qualities and individuality in an effort to dismantle the taboos that envelop female genitalia. Colloquial terms for the vagina, including “pussy”, “cunt” and “gash”, have all been adopted as negatives in the English language; being used as insults, curses or as an insinuation of weakness or passivity. In society as we know it, the vagina has for too long been perceived as the lesser sexual organ, conceptualised not on its qualities but what it lacks in comparison to the penis. Even the word vagina itself evokes a squeamishness among many, highlighting the urgent need for a change of perspective. Young children, especially people who are socialised and raised as female, are brought up to name their private parts “flower” and “foo-foo” among other diminutive names. This foundation has created a public misconception of what is considered a “normal” vagina, partially due to typecasting in porn and portrayals in mainstream media, but also the result of cultural censorship. The shape, colour and size of each petal has been chosen by each individual featured to represent how they see their own vagina. The series aims to unify female, non-binary and female-identifying individuals by showing the similarities of their vaginas rather than focusing on what is considered different. Spanning varying ages, races, genders, hair types, sizes and shapes, the series is a captivating and colourful compilation, with each image being accompanied by a message written by the subject about their own feelings about and experiences of their bodies.
