Barbara Bloom explores the nature of gifts in relation to aspects such as wrapping, covering and
uncovering, pleasure, secrets, and generosity. Through an exploration of art historical andcultural practices, she reveals the complicated relationship we have with the concept of the gift,considering how these traded objects take on meaning and serve as symbols of our affections,but also anticipate a sense of loss. The gift is a means of apology, making advances, gainingtrust, and providing assurances. Through gift-giving, we show a version of intimacy, love, anddesire that is deliberate and controlled, but also often more meaningful than intended. With textsby Susan Tallman.

Thomas Campbell - Slide Your Brains OutUm Yeah Press 2015 ISBN 9780985361105 Acqn 25952Hb 17x23cm 176pp col ills £32.95
Growing up in southern California, artist, photographer and filmmaker Thomas Campbell wasraised on the DIY aesthetic of the early 1980s skateboarding culture. Photography tips came fromlike-minded fellow photographers employed in the skateboarding press rather than from school,and art history was a matter of osmosis, not academia. In the mid-1990s, Campbell moved toNew York and immersed himself in the scene around Alleged Gallery, where he quicklybefriended and exhibited among the generation of artists who would star in the landmark 2004exhibition Beautiful Losers. Campbell began documenting surfing culture in the late 1990sthrough both photography and film. His first feature-length film, The Seedling , came out in 1999,followed by Sprout in 2004 and The Present in 2009. Campbell’s surfing photography has long
been admired among by fellow surfers for its lack of gloss finish; unlike most, he eschews thefamiliar fish-eye shots or tightly cropped land angles. The first of ten projected volumes in UmYeah Press’ surf photobook series, Slide Your Brains Out compiles work from the past 15 years.Often lo-fi and gritty, other times lush and saturated, Campbell’s compositions--which includeportraits and action shots of some of the best surfers in the world--are always surprising and fullof emotion, from melancholy to exultation.

Based around an out-of-print anthology devoted to prehistoric collections unearthed byarchaeological expeditions in Algeria, French artist Camille Henrot’s latest project treats thisethnographic material as motifs of a contemporary grotesque. The scientific document –photographs, diagrams, and captions – becomes part of a layered array incorporating traces ofour present age: humans, animals, plants, minerals, and other objects. Freely mixing the pre- and
post-historic, archaic and actual, Henrot constructs an exploration of human bodies, informationmedia, and meaning using dated pornography, technological refuse, tools and instruments, signs,and more.

William N. CopleyFondazione Prada 2016 ISBN 9788887029642 Acqn 25873Pb 21x28cm 400pp 480ills 395col £57
William N. Copley (1919–96) was a multifaceted American artist and art-world catalyst. Creator ofmadcap narrative paintings, drawings and installations, Copley was a unique figure in postwar arthistory well known for his humorous and sarcastic imagery. Known by his nom de plume CPLY,he was a self-taught artist pushing the limits of art-world decorum, as well as a collector, galleristand connector of some of the most important artists of the 20th century, in particular EuropeanSurrealists and Dadaists such as Max Ernst, Man Ray and Marcel Duchamp, and American Popartists. William N. Copley assembles works from all phases of the artist’s creation, from theParisian years to the last period spent mostly in solitude in his home in Sugarloaf Key, Florida,tracing the development of his painterly style and continual experiments with line, color, pattern
and allegory. In Paris in the early 1950s, Copley developed a unique, ribald figurative style thatbucked prevailing trends toward abstraction, taking inspiration from Surrealist painting, American,cartoon and silent-movie imagery. Throughout his career, he repeatedly returned to subjects likenudes, cars and nationalism; later works reveal his abiding interest in political and psychosexualthemes, surrealist visual punning and vaudevillian Americana, making Copley a link betweenEuropean Surrealist and American Pop circles. Featuring approximately 250 paintings and workson paper, the volume accompanies the first comprehensive presentation of the artist’s work in an
American museum, also scheduled to travel to Italy.

Like theexhibition, the book does not base its concept on the identity of the persons depicted – whetherfriends, family, fellow artists, poets, or strangers – instead choosing to present individual picturesthat trace a lengthy period of time in Neel’s artistic career, from 1932 until 1984, and thusformulating an aesthetic project. In short, it outlines her social activities and expressiveness asreflected in her paintings.

In a sense, the former, with their specific formsand exaggerated facial expressions, anticipate the swollen breasts and tiny heads of the latter.This juxtaposition of male and female in the art of Bourgeois brings to the forefront her approachto identity by contrasting the compressed, fixed expressions of the heads with the instability andmutability of the voluptuous pink and red bodies.

Danish artist Michael Kvium’s mode of expression is both fascinating and repellent. Againstbarren backgrounds, people are often presented as solitary and distorted in a critique of modernsociety and humanity. This book is published on the occasion of an exhibition of his work basedon the seven deadly sins, its title an acronym reflecting the Latin words first written down in thesixth century. Kvium invites us to darkly encounter ourselves, at the same time questioningwhether these moral values are still relevant today, from a contemporary perspective. Is itpossible that some of the cardinal sins have become accepted driving forces, even virtues, inWestern consumerism?

In 2012 a hitherto unknown "Eyckian" drawing of the 'Crucifixion' was exhibited in 'The Road toVan Eyck' in Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen. Forty years earlier Wim Hofman, a psychiatristand art collector from Groningen, had bought the drawing – as a reproduction – for just ten
guilders at a local estate auction. He was convinced, however, and rightly so, that it was anoriginal work of art, and he spent the rest of his life researching it. The Rotterdam museumacquired the drawing shortly after the exhibition. In this book leading specialists examine variousaspects of this mysterious drawing – its discovery, the scientific and technical research into thematerials, and the identity of the artist.
