Art-Art Books Catalogue Graphic Design by Benjamin Critton ii. 5 May – 9 June MMXII ii. Nos. 81 – 150 Arch-Art! Books consists of seventy publica- tions that present the artist book as a medium through which architecture might be photographi- cally and representationally explored. Using the periodicals in Archizines (17 April – 9 June) as its inspiration, Arch-Art! forms a complementary presentation of artist books that mine the over- lap and friction found in the recent resurgence of independent architecture and art publishing from around the world.

  • Croxby Primary Academy Graduate Award
    CROXBY PRIMARY ACADEMY GRADUATE AWARD NATHALIE DU PASQUIER LIFE AND INFLUENCES Nathalie Du Pasquier was born in Bordeaux, France in 1957. She was first inspired by her Mum, an art historian, which gave du Pasquier an appreciation for classic art. From 1975 to 1977, she travelled through Gabon and West Africa, and in 1979 she moved to Milan. Pasquier drew influence from African art and music. After a brief time illustrating, until 1986, she worked as a designer with a focus on fabrics for fashion design brands, but she also designed a range of furniture and installations. Many of Nathalie’s pattern designs were influenced by her time in Gabon, Africa. She watched sign painters, observed culture and absorbed local pattern design. Moving to Milan, Italy, the Byzantine mosaics also added to her later creativity She was introduced to the Memphis Group ideals by her husband George Sowden who was a founding member with Ettore Sottsass. MEMPHIS GROUP The group was a collaborative design group conjured by Italian designer Ettore Sottsass, with its roots in furniture design – it made its influential debut at the Milan furniture fair in 1981, but it was relatively short- lived as an actual collective, closing down after just six years, though its influence still lives on. The Memphis style was perhaps similar to the Art Deco and Pop Art styles that had become so popular over the previous decades. Since the disbandment of the Memphis Group, Nathalie has focused more on her still-life paintings, of which her more recent pieces still hold onto cubist themes.

  • This Book Is a Compendium of New Wave Posters. It Is Organized Around the Designers (At Last!)
    “This book is a compendium of new wave posters. It is organized around the designers (at last!). It emphasizes the key contribution of Eastern Europe as well as Western Europe, and beyond. And it is a very timely volume, assembled with R|A|P’s usual flair, style and understanding.” –CHRISTOPHER FRAYLING, FROM THE INTRODUCTION 2 artbook.com French New Wave A Revolution in Design Edited by Tony Nourmand. Introduction by Christopher Frayling. The French New Wave of the 1950s and 1960s is one of the most important movements in the history of film. Its fresh energy and vision changed the cinematic landscape, and its style has had a seminal impact on pop culture. The poster artists tasked with selling these Nouvelle Vague films to the masses—in France and internationally—helped to create this style, and in so doing found themselves at the forefront of a revolution in art, graphic design and photography. French New Wave: A Revolution in Design celebrates explosive and groundbreaking poster art that accompanied French New Wave films like The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962) and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964). Featuring posters from over 20 countries, the imagery is accompanied by biographies on more than 100 artists, photographers and designers involved—the first time many of those responsible for promoting and portraying this movement have been properly recognized. This publication spotlights the poster designers who worked alongside directors, cinematographers and actors to define the look of the French New Wave. Artists presented in this volume include Jean-Michel Folon, Boris Grinsson, Waldemar Świerzy, Christian Broutin, Tomasz Rumiński, Hans Hillman, Georges Allard, René Ferracci, Bruno Rehak, Zdeněk Ziegler, Miroslav Vystrcil, Peter Strausfeld, Maciej Hibner, Andrzej Krajewski, Maciej Zbikowski, Josef Vylet’al, Sandro Simeoni, Averardo Ciriello, Marcello Colizzi and many more.

  • The Cut NY May 29
    The Memphis Design Movement Is Having a Moment By Lauren Schwartzberg May 29, 2017 9:02 pm The Memphis-filled apartment of Raquel Cayre. Photo: Bobby Doherty/New York Magazine The ’80s design movement known as Memphis has reemerged, inspiring Greenpoint ceramicists, Supreme collaborations, and an exhibit at the Met Breuer. See those wormlike patterns on the ceramic vases sold at Dimes? That’s Memphis. The urgent impulse to outfit your office with a canary-yellow filing cabinet? You’ve got Memphis brain. Loud colors and zany patterns, once laughed off as one of many bad decisions made in the 1980s, have sneaked back into the Zeitgeist. All of a sudden, everyone from young Brooklyn artisans to the creative director at Valentino is riffing on a style invented in December 1980, when a group of like- minded designers gathered in a tiny Milan apartment one night and founded Memphis. At the time, the collective (and ensuing movement) known as Memphis was reacting to the austerity of modernism. Designers like Mies van der Rohe and Milo Baughman made furniture with chilly chrome and expensive leather; Memphis designers had an affection for cheap plastic and a mishmash of shapes and colors. When Memphis debuted its first collection, spectators lined up early on to gawk but, aside from a devoted few (Karl Lagerfeld and David Bowie among them), not necessarily to buy. But now, nearly 40 years after Memphis’s inception, its Tahiti lamps are replacing exposed-filament bulbs in apartments throughout the city. Even West Elm has embraced the Memphis squiggle. As in the past, this resurgence is also a response to design trends: We’ve hit peak mid-century modern, and all that sleek, teak, “tasteful” furniture is starting to look the same.

  • Ettore Sottsass & the Memphis Group Inside a Collector's Home
    GRIEDER CONTEMPORARY Ettore Sottsass & The Memphis Group Inside a Collector’s Home November 24, 2017 – February 23, 2018 Opening hours: Fri, 11 am – 6 pm and by prior arrangement Grieder Contemporary is delighted to present the exhibition: Ettore Sottsass and The Memphis Group – Inside a Collector’s Home, marking the official inauguration of its new gallery space in Küsnacht/Zurich. After extensive renovation and extension works by Fuhrimann & Hächler architects, the newly built annex of the Modernist villa is now ready to welcome Grieder Contemporary's first exhibition in Küs- nacht with works by Ettore Sottsass and the Memphis Group. The exhibition will showcase masterpieces of the acclaimed designer and artist Ettore Sottsass, as well as other objects by members of the Memphis Group sourced from an original private interior collection from the early 1980s. Original vintage furniture and objects will send us back in time and allow us to immerse ourselves in a collector's household, a liv- ing environment transferred in its entirety to a gallery space. Ettore Sottsass founded Memphis in 1980 together with former colleagues from Studio Alchimia and a younger generation of architects and designers. In 1981 it counted among its members Michele de Luc- chi, Matteo Thun, Marco Zanini, Aldo Cibic, Andrea Branzi, Shiro Kuramata, Michael Graves, Javier Mariscal, Barbara Radice, Martine Bedin, George J. Sowden, Masanori Umeda and Nathalie du Pasquier. Memphis, named after a Bob Dylan’s song: Stuck Inside of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again, was a successful attempt to kickstart a radical change and emancipation from the international Modernist Style of the 1960s.

  • The French Artist Nathalie Du Pasquier Has Lived and Worked in Milan Since 1979
    The French artist Nathalie du Pasquier has lived and worked in Milan since 1979. Two years after she arrived in the city, Ettore Sottsass founded the design collective Memphis, whose riotous postmodern style – a collision of colours, forms and patterns – would help define the aesthetic of the new decade. At the time, Du Pasquier, who had no formal design training, was creating textile patterns for Italian fashion brands such as Fiorucci and Naj Oleari with the encouragement of her partner, George Sowden, who had worked with Sottsass at Olivetti. The pair was among the Memphis group’s original members. Du Pasquier’s graphic, exuberant patterns covered the surfaces of Memphis creations until 1987, when she decided to dedicate herself to painting. From the still lifes and surrealist-inflected landscapes of the late 1980s and early ’90s, her work has gradually moved towards more abstract compositions – many are paintings of constructions she has created herself. (She defines herself as ‘a painter who makes her own models’.) Earlier this year, ‘Big Game’, a solo exhibition of her works on paper, spanning more than 35 years, was held at Exile, Berlin, and a collection of her unpublished drawings from 1981–87, Don’t Take These Drawings Seriously, designed and edited by Omar Sosa, was published by powerHouse books in February. Her work is on show at Exile as part of the group exhibition ‘Ausstellung 61’ until 10 October, with a further solo show to follow at the gallery in March 2016. It is a strange exercise to go back in time and try to remember the things that have shaped the course that my life and work have taken.

It emerged in the winter of 1980/81, when a group of young designers eager to break away from the dogmas of functionalism and industrial design formed around the Italian architect and designer Ettore Sottsass. The group’s first collection, presented at Milan’s Arc’74 gallery in September 1981, was an international sensation. Characterized by garish colours and wild patterns, the Memphis designs seemed to have walked straight off the pages of a comic book and gave rise to a completely new look in which popular culture, advertising aesthetics, and post-modernism merged in a crazy medley. The exhibition »Memphis: 40 Years of Kitsch and Elegance« at the Vitra Design Museum Gallery celebrates the fortieth anniversary of the group’s foundation through its creations, presenting furniture, lamps, bowls, drawings, sketches, and photographs that give insight into the world of Memphis. Exhibits include works by such well-known members as Ettore Sottsass, Michele De Lucchi, George Sowden, Martine Bedin, Michael Graves, Barbara Radice, Peter Shire, Nathalie Du Pasquier, and Shiro Kuramata. The group’s declared aim was to overcome the dictates of functionalism, celebrate the banal and everyday, and break the taboos of good taste. Its design philosophy was also influenced by the emergence of the information society. Like television and computers, Memphis objects were meant to communicate with the viewer and tell their own unique story.

  • EVERY OTHER SPACE a Display of Artists' Books A
    EVERY OTHER SPACE A display of artists’ books A collaboration between Gregorio Magnani and Nicole Wermers 24.1 – 27.4.2020 The exhibition curated by Gregorio Magnani presents a wide selection of artists’ books exhibited within a display specifically designed by artist Nicole Wermers in the Mutina showroom. Wermers uses coir matting – a common material normally trampled on – in order to create a presentation mechanism for the books. Coir, which usually carachterises doormats, is turned from a transitional zone into a display layer. The artists’ books presented in the exhibition are autonomous artworks, conceived to exist exclusively in this format. Starting from Zang Tumb Tumb, the book-manifesto of Futurism published by Filippo Marinetti in 1912, the exhibition features artists’ books by Kai Althoff, Isa Genzken, Richard Prince, Laura Owens, Hanne Darboven, Christopher Williams, Wolfgang Tillmans, Andy Warhol and up to the most recent experimentations, and narrates the liberating and often disruptive encounter between artistic creativity and the book. Ironic and evocative, the presentation developed by Nicole Wermers and Gregorio Magnani challenges the rules and hierarchies of display. Coir is lifted from its usage as flooring – traditionally low in the architectural canon of values – and elevated to the height of exhibiting element. The original function of the coir and its coarse texture rubs physically and metaphorically against the books that rest on it. *Nicole Wermers (1971, Emsdetten, Germany) is an artist based in London and a professor for sculpture at Akademie der Bildenden Künste, Munich. Recent solo exhibitions include: Women Between Buildings, Hamburger Kunstverein, Hamburg; Seasons (with Markus Amm), Herald St, London; Givers & Takers, Tanya Bonakdar Gallery, New York and Manners, Tate Britain, London.
