Bøker av Benjamin H. D. Buchloh

Two of the most important voices in art history discuss their intellectual foundations, the changing role of criticism, and the possibilities for artistic practice today.In Exit Interview, the prominent art critics and historians Hal Foster and Benjamin Buchloh discuss their intellectual foundations and the projects they've worked on together, from October magazine to Art Since 1900. Through three engaging conversations, Foster engages Buchloh on his early influences and aspirations, his formative years in Berlin, London, and Dusseldorf, and his career in North America, while exploring the impact of other art historians and critics. Buchloh candidly addresses his successes, critical significance, and unexplored avenues in art history, providing a unique window into his motivations and experiences. With a powerful postface by Buchloh, Exit Interview builds from biography and anecdote to important reflection on one’s critical life as a whole.

"An extended, critical appraisal of the contemporary German artist Gerhard Richter"--

The four large-format pictures, which Gerhard Richter first called "abstract pictures," but later titled Birkenau, were produced in 2014. They were based on photos taken at an execution. An essay by art historian Benjamin H. D. Buchloh explains the creation of these pictures. Richter has also made archive photos, documenting phases of the painting process, available for use in this book.
