Christian Marclay: Replay, catalogue (2007)

Christian Marclay is an eminent conceptual artist, fascinated with all aspects of popular music and cinema. A collector of audio recordings and films, his practice is eclectic – spanning collage to performance and ‘turntableism’ – and his obsession for collecting and re-assembling contemporary artefacts is infectious. If Marclay’s craft of re-construction is itself musical (the pauses and absences being as much part of the work as the shots and beats), his re-compositions also follow a rich heritage of montage within cinema and experimental film. The book reunites some of his most important films and projections to date and has been designed by NORM in close collaboration with the artist. Five important essays and an interview by Michael Snow bring new light to his work as a performer, musician, visual artist, and filmmaker. Published in collaboration with the Cite de la Musique and the Australian Centre for Moving Image to accompany the exhibition Replay at Cite de la musique, Paris, 8 March – 24 July 2007.

With contributions by Jean-Pierre Criqui, Emma Lavigne, Rosalind Krauss, Peter Szendy, Philippe-Alain Michaud, and a conversation between Michael Snow and Christian Marclay.

Software: Information Technology: Its New Meaning for Art, catalogue (1970)

Software was a show curated by an artist and critic Jack Burnham for the Jewish Museum in Brooklyn, New York City, 16 September – 8 November 1970, and the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C., 16 December 1970 – 14 February 1971. The show put together computers and conceptual artists, linking them through the idea of software as a process or a program to be carried out by a machine or, why not, by the audience based on “instruction lines” formulated by the artist.

Participating artists: Vito Acconci, David Antin, Architecture Group Machine M.I.T., John Baldessari, Robert Barry, Linda Berris, Donald Burgy, Paul Conly, Agnes Denes, Robert Duncan Enzmann, Carl Fernbach-Flarsheim, John Godyear, Hans Haacke, Douglas Huebler, Joseph Kosuth, Nam June Paik, Alex Razdow, Sonia Sheridan, Evander D.
