En savoir plus sur le livre
Part monograph and part artist book, The Imagines started with an invitationto its writers to respond to four recent art installations by Berlin-based artistInes Lechleitner. Lechleitner furthers her artistic explorations in perception andlanguage by utilizing the Greek notion of ekphrases (vivid textual descriptionsof visual artworks). In the original Roman text, paintings (which may never haveexisted) are described in such a detailed and sensory manner that the reader canimagine standing in front of them. Employing this notion, Lechleitner collaborateswith writer/curator Agnieszka Gratza, Béatrice Gross, Chantal Pontbriand andAllen S. Weiss to build up narratives within the space of the book utilizing a varietyof visual and textual elements. The resulting collaborations invite the reader/viewer to reflect upon the intertwining of verbal and nonverbal communicationand the nature of dialogic exchange in contemporary art.
