Available for a limited time, this artist's book by renowned visual artist Tacita Dean explores her chance encounters with objects in the archives of the Getty Research Institute.

Dieses Buch ist eine Reise - an Orte der Inspiration, in den Backstagebereich, in Archive, Notizbücher, Textwelten und damit durch über 120 Produktionen (Theater, Hörspiele, Filme, Installationen) von Rimini Protokoll. Es ist der Versuch das Oeuvre nach zwanzig Jahren kollektiver Arbeitspraxis in Werkgruppen zusammenzufassen und chronologisch zu dokumentieren.Text: John McGrath, Helgard Haug, Stefan Kaegi, Imanuel Schipper, Daniel Wetzel

The New York architecture office MOS, founded by Michael Meredith and Hilary Sample, is one of the few in the United States that manages to build a quality work from their almost artisanal office structure. Their architecture's intention is not to programmatically experiment with social norms, wanting to use architecture to directly intervene or facilitate interactions between neighbors or occupants. MOS's projects are built through combining and aggregating a multiplicity of architectural elements: chimneys, corridors, courtyards, roofs, windows, etc. Their work is partially self-referential, drawing on a consistent set of elements, ideas, and characteristics from their own architectural catalogue.

This monograph is unusual in bringing the voices from a wide range of people - writers, curators, gallerists, collectors, colleagues, art critics - who have given way to and influenced the artist's work throughout the years. The concept and layout do not only mirror Buren's artistic structures and aesthetics but also his playful way of thinking by offering fragments of works from specific times and letting the reader collect the final pieces herself.The written contributions will be accompanied by a generous amount of visual material.Text: Sophie Calle, Jean-Louis Froment, Rudi Fuchs, Hans Haacke, Garry Neill Kennedy, Kasper König, Yvon Lambert, Paul Maenz, Massimo Minini, Naomi Spector a.o.
