€550.00

MARCLAY Christian [Christian Marclay] (San Rafael 1955)

Zürich / Tampa, JRP|Ringier, co-published with Graphicstudio, 2011, 33 x 22.2 cm, Softcover, 116 pp., monograph documenting six series of cyanotypes produced by Christian Marclay in collaboration with Graphicstudio, Tampa. Placing unspooled cassette tapes directly onto photosensitive surfaces, Marclay transforms a medium for recording sound into an instrument of visual abstraction. The resulting Prussian-blue images register tangled ribbons of magnetic tape through a photographic process requiring no camera. Designed by NORM in close collaboration with the artist. Edited by David Louis Norr, with texts by Noam M. Elcott and Margaret A. Miller examining the works and their relationship to the history of the avant-garde.
