<p>Painter and sculptor Georg Baselitz is one of the most important German artists working today, and his art is held by major museums around the world. And for more than thirty years, photographer Benjamin Katz has been documenting Baselitz at work. Katz is famous for his photographic portraits of artists, including Gerhard Richter, Joseph Beuys, Sigmar Polke, Rosemarie Trockel, and Martin Kippenberger. His long experience working with artists—and the friendships he’s established with them—enables him to capture them when they are completely at ease. The resulting portraits offer an unprecedented view of artists actually working rather than posing. In this book, we see Baselitz with paintbrush in hand, contemplating a painting, lifting a hammer as he eyes an in-progress sculpture, or relaxing with a cigar and a dog at his side. <br>The photographs in this volume are intimate, personal, and disarming. A testament to decades of friendship, they reveal a new side of an artist we’ve previously seen only through his work.<br></p>

A thorough discussion of the 'exhibition' as a mediumThis book serves as a platform for issues on contemporary applied art with the aim of stimulating critical discourse within the fieldThe profession of exhibition making and curatorial practices has over the course of the last twenty years undergone a seminal change, something which in turn has challenged the notion of what an exhibition can be, not least in terms of communication and design. Large scale group exhibitions, like documenta in Kassel, seem to have involved discussions on exhibition making and curatorial models at the heart of their organizational body. Another common aspect of these large-scale events is that they employ new venues for showing and presenting works, be it museums that normally don't show contemporary art or craft, abandoned factories or various public spaces.Craft 2014, the annual group exhibition of the Norwegian Association for Arts and Crafts, created much lively debate concerning spatial design, as the walls and floor in the exhibition spaces were covered in tags by local graffiti artists. Was the perception of the individual works impaired due to the "smeared" exhibition walls, or has it not only elevated the exhibition but also made it more contemporary and more fun?
