post-hypnotic examines the resurgence of pronounced optical effects in the work of 28 painters living in the U.S., Switzerland, England, and Japan. Since the 1980s, numerous artists have revisited Op phenomena involving pulsating patterns, afterimages, vibrating illusionistic space, and other sensations often associated with altered states. This book will offer the first comprehensive view and critical assessment of optical phenomena in the 1980s and 1990s. Curator Barry Blinderman and artist/critic Tom Moody trace Op from its quasi-scientific origins in the 60s through its so-called deconstruction in the 80s to its present incarnation. Peter Halley contributes an interview updating his essay on Ross Bleckner and Op, "Painting at the End of History." Among the artists included are: Ross Bleckner, Peter Halley, Bruce Pearson, Philip Taaffe, John Armleder, and Yayoi Kusama.

People go by and it doesn't matter that someone was killed. I still care about people, but it would be so much easier not to care, it's too hard to care. --Andy Warhol News and death fascinated Warhol, and nowhere is this more uncomfortably reflected than in his paintings of electric chairs. Part of his "Death and Disaster" series, these works borrow from the eye-catching style of tabloid journalism to reflect on the clash of dreams and violence that suffused 60s America. Using photographs collected from various media sources, imagery often deemed too upsetting for the front page, Warhol compels us to look more closely at our own voyeurism and our response and lack of response to violence, as well as our reactions to the universal experience of death that underlies both high-profile public disasters and everyday violence.

Glee is a uniquely designed volume dedicated to new developments in the world of contemporary painting--developments that engage advances in digital technology instead of fleeing from them. Including such already-renowned and up-and-coming painters as Peter Halley, Franz Ackerman, Ricci Albenda, Pedro Barbieto, Linda Besemer, Alex Blau, Greg Bogin, Alex Brown, Ingrid Calame, Sharon Ellis, Jeff Elrod, Carl Fudge, Wayne Gonzales, Jim Isermann, Sarah Morris, Stephen Mueller, Albert Oehlen, Monique Prieto, John F. Simon Jr. and Yek, Glee documents how these artists are innovating via the influence of styles as diverse as Op Art, Pattern &amp; Decoration, early computer graphics and late 1960s psychedelia. The catalogue was designed by the rising young firm COMA, and features a gatefold that divides the book into two halves: the first dedicated to the artworks themselves, and the second devoted to essays and artist biographies.
