Dismantling the Patriarchy, Bit by Bit
In Dismantling the Patriarchy, Bit by Bit, Judith K. Brodsky makes a ground-breaking intellectual leap by connecting feminist art theory with the rise of digital art. Technology has commonly been considered the domain of white men but-unrecognized until this book-female artists, including women artists of color, have been innovators in the digital art arena as early as the late 1960s when computers first became available outside of government and university laboratories. Brodsky, an important figure in the feminist art world, looks at various forms of visual art that are quickly becoming the dominant art of the 21st century, examining the work of artists in such media as video (from pioneers...

Frieze Art Fair
London's Frieze Art Fair is now one of the world's leading contemporary art fairs. Organized by the influential contemporary art magazine of the same name and successfully launched in 2003, it has been called "one of the very best fairs for contemporary art." This annual event brings together the 200 most dynamic contemporary galleries in the world, with each nominating three of their most exciting artists, creating an exhibition of more than 300 artworks. From established stars like Damien Hirst and Jeff Koons to unheralded emerging talent the fair provides an intriguing snapshot of the global contemporary art scene. This catalogue of the fair documents all the works exhibited. Each artist's entry includes an image of their work, a short article, a biography, and a bibliography. An index and resource section will reference all the artists and galleries involved. This comprehensive record of an important international art event will be an essential reference for collectors, dealers, curators, and fans of contemporary art.
Introjection
Introjection marks the first mid-career survey of the internationally recognized video artist Tony Oursler. Plumbing popular and punk culture for the twisted icons that structure our collective unconscious, Oursler creates fragmentary images and scenes that might belong to the hallucinations of a delinquent adolescent on a bad trip. The viewer is left to imagine what ungodly narrative was frozen in time to create such surreal, but somehow uncomfortably familiar, mayhem. Though darkly humorous, his work, known to most for his use of sculptural rag dolls onto which he projects the video image of a human face, delves deeply into the question of how the twinned forces of sex and violence, gender and power function in our culture. This catalogue traces the evolution of Oursler's career from early single channel videos through his current mixed-media installations and experiments in digital media. Combining sculpture, video, performance, and text, Oursler's work addresses complex contemporary issues with empathy, insight, and wit. Also included are four critical essays, two interviews, an essay by the artist as well as a comprehensive exhibition history and bibliography.
