The Nose - By Nikolai Gogol Art by Rick Buckley Four Corners Books | 2015 | 9781909829046 | English Acqn 24767 | Hb | 13x20cm | 96pp | 17 ills | £10.99 The Nose and The Overcoat are part of Four Corners Familiars, a series of artists’ responses to classic novels and short stories that provides a fresh look at the tradition of the illustrated novel, with each artist choosing a text to be reprinted in full as part of a newly created work. The Nose is a satirical short story with an unlikely protagonist. Taking on a life of its own, the nose of a St. Petersburg official leaves its rightful place to cause havoc in the city. This edition includes photographs by artist Rick Buckley documenting a Gogol-inspired street intervention where he fixed plaster noses on to buildings all over London.
The Overcoat - By Nikolai Gogol Art by Sarah Dobai Four Corners Books | 2015 | 9781909829039 | English Acqn 24766 | Hb | 22x29cm | 88pp | 17 ills | £15.99 In The Overcoat, a lowly government clerk’s life is briefly transformed by the extravagant purchase of a new coat. This new edition is accompanied by artwork from Sarah Dobai, who has taken a series of photographs of shop windows in London and Paris to reflect upon the story’s preoccupation with material desire and illusion.

Stan Douglas Fruitmarket Gallery | 2014 | 9781908612311 | English Acqn 24423 | Hb | 17x23cm | 160pp | 80 ills | £17.95 Together these works, exhibited at The Fruitmarket Gallery, provide both a rich introduction to and a reminder of the practice of Stan Douglas whose investigations into mistaken identity and unstable memory, reconstruction, reinvention and the long shadows the past cast into the present, make him one of the most interesting and important artists of our time. Works include the video installation ‘Video’ and a reimagining of both Orson Welles’s film ‘The Trial’ (itself based on Kafka’s novel of the same name) and Beckett’s film ‘Film’.
Possibilities of the Object - Experiments in Modern and Contemporary Brazilian Art Fruitmarket Gallery | 2015 | 9781908612328 | English Acqn 24765 | Pb | 13x18cm | 152pp | £14.95 Written by Paulo Venancio Filho with a foreword by Briony Fer, this book examines the pioneering role Brazilian artists played in the innovative international art scene of the 1950s to 1970s. Connecting the work of well-known and widely-exhibited Brazilian artists such as Helio Oiticica, Lygia Clark and Mira Schendel with the work of some of their lesser-known contemporaries and the younger generation of artists that followed, it is a celebration of some of the beautiful and artistically radical sculptures with which Brazilian artists have tried to redefine what an art object can actually be.

Gary Hume - Lions And Unicorns & Night Time White Cube | 2015 | 9781906072889 | English Acqn 24854 | Hb | 22x28cm | 72pp | £50 Hume’s ‘Unicorn’ paintings use architectonic motifs that derive from bunting - celebratory strings of colourful, triangular flags that are used for decoration. But, as with all of the artist’s work, an innocuous starting point becomes a springboard for exploring compositional limits, and the malleable ground between figuration and abstraction.
Christian Marclay - Liquids White Cube | 2015 | 9780876331736 | English Acqn 24855 | Hb | 23x30cm | 150pp | £50 Continuing Marclay’s long-standing interest in the relationship between image and sound, this exhibition is comprised of a series of works on canvas and paper that feature onomatopoeia taken from comic books. Combining cartoon-strip imagery and the dripping, pouring and splashing noises associated with gestural abstraction.

Isa Genzken - I’m Isa Genzken, the Only Female Fool Sternberg Press | 2014 | 9783956790812 | English Acqn 24265 | Pb | 14x21cm | 114pp | 48 ills | £14.95 The Only Female Fool’ is how Isa Genzken describes herself in the selfchosen title of her exhibition at the Kunsthalle Wien. This statement is typical of the fluid boundaries between deep seriousness and the exuberant, eccentric spirit that pervades her work.
Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen - Playmates and Playboys at a Higher Level Sternberg Press | 2015 | 9783956791055 | English Acqn 24751 | Pb | 10x15cm | 64pp | 15 ills | £6 After the infamous split in the Situationist International in 1962, the Danish artist J.

Amar Kanwar - Sovereign Forest Sternberg Press | 2015 | 9783956790454 | English Acqn 24752 | Pb | 20x26cm | 316pp | 135 ills | £28 Sovereign Forest renders visible and collects evidence of what has hitherto been hidden and suppressed within the site of a ‘modern war,’ in which industrial interventions have reshaped and permanently destroyed parts of the landscape of the Indian state of Odisha for over a decade, leaving villagers in suffering and devastation.

The concept became a key principle of performance and film art, and led to the development of process-oriented and interdisciplinary artistic techniques.
Not Now! Now! - Chronopolitics, Art & Research Sternberg Press | 2015 | 9783956791086 | English Acqn 24667 | Pb | 17x22cm | 188pp | 70 ills | £15.50 Not Now! Now! engages with the politics of time in art: historical narratives and memory, the unforeseen rhythms of time, and the challenge of visualizing time.

Fred Wilson - Sculptures, Paintings And Installations 2004-2014 Pace Gallery NY | 2014 | 9781935410607 | English Acqn 24315 | Hb | 24x30cm | 88pp | 47 ills | £34 Wilson’s appropriation is wide reaching. Simultaneously working with decorative art and national symbols, he breaks down the supposed structures in place and offers up an alternative view of nearly everything he touches. He treats even the seemingly simplest of forms, a mirror or a flag, in the same manner as an entire museum collection. 12

Picasso & Jacqueline - The Evolution Of Style Pace Gallery NY | 2014 | 9781935410621 | English Acqn 24680 | Hb | 24x27cm | 256pp | 202 ills | £69 With many works from the Picasso family and Jacqueline Roque’s estate on view to the public for the first time, plus loans from private collections and major museums this exhibition is the first to examine Picasso’s late transformation in style, as seen exclusively through the portraits of Jacqueline, his last and perhaps greatest love.

Her paintings feature copper and gold wires embedded in heavily gessoed surfaces, and fields of marks left with goldsmith’s tools, most notably the thinnam, used to incise ornamental patterns in bangles.
Adrian Ghenie - Golems Pace London | 2014 | 9781909406124 | English Acqn 24312 | Hb | 29x31cm | 64pp | 37 ills | £35 Ghenie talks often of his interest in painting the ‘texture of history’. Much of the visual information we see of historical figures, events and places are rendered flat and two-dimensional and it is their forgotten surface and texture that fascinates Ghenie. Darwin’s personal story and iconography holds a special fascination for the artist. 13

Cecily Brown Gagosian Gallery (NY) | 2014 | 9781938748066 | French Acqn 24384 | Hb | 20x24cm | 40pp | 26 ills | £42 Cecily Brown conceives each canvas as a compositional flux, compressing subject and background, and incorporating a palette of bright contrasting hues. Stylistically diverse nudes - some loosely suggested, others clearly identifiable - make explicit her aim of conveying images in a barely elusive shorthand.
