The Berlin Years

History & Criticism

McSweeney's

This lavishly illustrated monograph is the definitive publication on the internationally renowned Canadian artist Marcel Dzama. Characterized by an immediately recognizable cast of fanciful and frightening characters, Dzama’s work draws from a diverse range of influences, including Dada and Marcel Duchamp. While the artist is best known for his delicate psychosexual drawings, his work also includes sculpture, painting, and film. More than 500 color images from the late 1990s through the present trace the artistic evolution and tremendous talent of this highly acclaimed young artist. Textual contributions include a foreword by the contemporary artist Raymond Pettibon, three original short stories inspired by Dzama’s work by Dave Eggers, an essay by the art historian Bradley Bailey, and an interview with Dzama by the filmmaker Spike Jonze.

Lying deep within the urban metropolis of Hong Kong, Happy Valley is one of the most iconic racecourses in the world. It is also the chief source of inspiration for a new body of work by American artist Marcel Dzama. Jockeys ride through waves and cathedrals, Chinese symbols pulled from racing paraphernalia adorn the edges of paper, and bats swoop, hunting for prey. Dzama’s distinct visions of the racetrack come alive through a series of large-scale paintings and drawings, transposing imagery from his prolific oeuvre into this adrenaline-filled sporting arena. His new works reflect on the culture of horseracing and how the track has become not only a symbol of sport, but also of commerce, class, and wealth. The publication includes a conversation between Dzama and Laila Pedro. Published on the occasion of his solo exhibition at David Zwirner, Hong Kong in 2019, Marcel Dzama: Crossing the Line is available in both English only and bilingual English/traditional Chinese editions.

Marcel Dzama: The Journal

Marcel Dzama has changed everything about art that involves alligators and men in bear costumes holding guns. Dzama is from Winnipeg, and his work shows frequently in New York and on Beck's album covers. Sometimes he paints with root beer. This book — it's not even a book at all, really — is an envelope with 32 loose-leaf prints good enough to frame; plus a scrapbook; plus an insert card; plus an introduction by Sarah Vowell, recently brought back into existence after a long absence — and it's a wonderfully multifaceted introduction to the work of a really amazing artist.

With The Berlin Years, Marcel Dzama's visions of elegant, enigmatic bears, bats, and sexy ladies were delivered to a slumbering nation. Now, The Berliner Ensemble Thanks You All provides entirely new artwork for an eager audience. The book — actually a redesigned envelope with 28 loose-leaf prints suitable for framing — features watercolors and drawings of bats, nurses, horses, guns, girls, masks, ballerinas, cowboys and more, and shows why Dzama is sought after by such luminaries as Beck and Nick Hornby, and collected by Jim Carrey and Steve Martin.

Marcel Dzama’s prolific output as a draftsman has, in recent years, expanded to include works in many different media—film, sculpture, dance, collage, and even a recent collaboration with artist Raymond Pettibon are all part of his current practice. His at times surreal, often frightening vision, translates beautifully to film and dance, where actors in complex costumes bring to life the worlds Dzama draws on paper. Published on the occasion of his collaborative ballet with choreographer Justin Peck and musician Bryce Dessner at the New York City Ballet, The Book of Ballet documents the genesis of all aspects of the project. The gem-like booklet begins with “The Most Incredible Thing,” the Hans Christian Andersen story on which the ballet is based, and continues to present Dzama’s costume designs. The images not only show final design decisions, but also chart the changes in costumes as the project unfolded, and the ways in which Dzama’s conception of the characters in the ballet shifted over time. The book closes with a conversation between Dzama and Peck in which choreographer and artist discuss the nuances of their collaborative process, and the important role of renowned composer Dessner in bringing the project to life. Also included is a poster made specifically for this book by the artist.

L'artiste canadien Marcel Dzama fait vibrer le Maroc de son trait ensorcelant.Le voyage de Marcel Dzama interroge sa place de plasticien, mais aussi de touriste projeté dans un univers inconnu. Carnet de dessins à la main et appareil photo autour du cou, il se laisse séduire par la variété des marchés, par les boniments des charmeurs de serpents. De l’historique Tanger à la sauvage Essaouira, en passant par les montagnes de Chefchaouen, l’énergie chaotique de Fès, la culture berbère de Béni Mellal, la qualité de l’artisanat de Marrakech et la majesté du désert d’Agafay, il veut accueillir les émotions et non découvrir les sites par des lectures préliminaires. Le plasticien transforme alors ses aquarelles en une réminiscence d’Henri Matisse, remontant même en pensée jusqu’à l’orientalisme et Eugène Delacroix.\nFrom the Back Cover\nLouis Vuitton publie au printemps 2020 trois nouveaux titres dans sa collection de carnets de voyage illustrés par des artistes du monde entier. 
Cette année, l'artiste canadien Marcel Dzama fait vibrer le Maroc de son trait ensorcelant, l'artiste français Marc Desgrandchamps révèle les lignes d'une Barcelone évanescente, et l'illustratrice de mode américaine Kelly Beeman insuffle sa délicatesse à une Saint-Pétersbourg pleine d'élan.
