| book description |
The first comprehensive monograph on visual artist and filmmaker Rosa Barba, one of the most critically acclaimed artists working today Rosa Barba is a Berlin-based artist whose work offers a crucial deconstruction of film and sculpture and how the two relate to each other. While her installations and site-specific interventions challenge and reconstitute the viewer’s notions of cinema and its staging vis-à -vis gesture, genre, documents, and information, her films settle at an ambiguous point between experimental documentary and fictional narrative, thriving in a contemporary moment while hinging on fleeting memory and encroaching uncertainty. Predicated by extensive study in a variety of places, and occasionally enhanced by live performances conceived to activate her pieces, Barba’s art provides an experience that brings back the audience to the bewildered, complex reality that surrounds us every day. Extensively illustrated with more than 150 photographs, this first monograph on the groundbreaking artist includes essays and texts from art-world luminaries, an illuminating new interview with Barba, studio photography, and more.
