Published on the occasion of the first major museum survey of Karen Kilimnik's work, a traveling exhibition with stops in Philadelphia, Miami, Aspen and Chicago, this chic but scholarly catalogue is the most substantial on the artist to date. It highlights an important American artist whose work objectifies mass-cultural desire with glittering poignancy and includes a nuanced selection of 15 years worth of collage-based activity in the realms of painting, drawing, photography, sculptural installation and object-making, as well as new work. Fully illustrated at 180 pages, it features an essay by exhibition curator Ingrid Schaffner which analyzes the development of the artist's work and its historic contexts as well as four contributions from authors who address a theme or image within the work. Thus, cultural critic Wayne Koestenbaum addresses gossip; dance historian Joel Lobenthal writes on ballet; Associate Curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, Dominic Molon, focuses on influence; and Artforum Senior Editor Scott Rothkopf considers Kilimnik's titles. Includes a complete bibliography and an illustrated exhibition chronology. Called "sharp and witty" and "long overdue" for major recognition by The New York Times' Holland Cotter, Kilimnik is an important international artist with an extensive publication and exhibition history. Born in Philadelphia in 1955, she studied architecture at Temple University and continues to live in the region. Since 1991, her work has been represented by 303 Gallery in New York. She has had recent solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art, Ireland, and White Cube, London. In 1992, ICA Philadelphia presented Kilimnik's first museum show as part of its "Investigations" series.

Kirschgarten is an extravagantly glamorous artist‘s book published on the occasion of American artist Karen Kilimnik‘s exhibition at Haus zum Kirschgarten in Basle, a museum dedicated to 18th-century domestic culture. Kilimnik‘s starting point was an unfortunate circumstance we are all familiar with: you visit a museum, you see some objects that capture your fancy, and upon leaving you find out that there‘s no postcard of them. Kilimnik seized the opportunity and created a postcard album with her favorite objects and paintings from Haus zum Kirschgarten. It‘s a booklet with a taffeta-moiré cover—some of the books are cerise, others are black—held together by three luscious, elaborately tied taffeta ribbons. Inside you find eight pictures printed on postcard-cardboard. Five of them show objects that appealed to Kilimnik‘s trademark sensibility for romance and beauty; the others show paintings from the museum in ornate gilded frames chosen by Kilimnik. A unique object that pays homage both to Kilimnik‘s eye for the extraordinary and to the marvels of a domestic culture long past.

With overheated seductive power and sultry malicious glamour Karen Kilimnik introduces us to the rituals of her second-hand yearnings and her media worship, which she proceeds to dissect in an incomparable mixture of desperate innocence, post-adolescent ingenuity, and voodoo-like humor. ""A world where supermodels converge with the super-richKate Moss and Princess Di become oneand where the adult obsessions with wealth and beauty are offset by a childish preoccupation with pedigree dogs, thoroughbred horses and the Pink Panther.""Anna Chapman / The Fac

Dance Rehearsal explores Philadelphia-born artist Karen Kilimnik’s longstanding engagement with historical performance, in particular the romantic story ballets of the nineteenth century. These timeless tales and their protagonists have been a key inspiration for Kilimnik since the beginning of her career. The multi-disciplinary elements that bring the performances and narratives to life, including music, choreography, dance and scenery can be found reflected in the diverse styles and mediums in which Kilimnik has worked. This publication, featuring pieces from 1988 to the present, encompasses this eclectic variety in more than 60 large-scale color reproductions, from figurative drawing and painting to mixed-media mise-en-scéne installations, collage, photography and video. Dance Rehearsal also introduces Kilimnik’s more recent forays into set design and choreography and includes texts by editor, critic and curator Melissa E. Feldman and others.

The Ringier Collection, one of Europe's most informed contemporary art collections, includes key pieces ranging from John Baldessari (whose seminal 1978 work lends it's title to this book) to Richard Prince, Fischli & Weiss, Urs Fischer, Rodney Graham, Karen Kilimnik and Trisha Donnely. Published concurrently with an exhibition at Kunstmuseum Luzern, Blasted Allegories functions as a visual essay rather than an exhaustive account of the last four decades of contemporary art. Illustrations of more than 200 works loosely map the contemporary art scene, following both mainstream and alternative currents. Edited by Beatrix Ruf, Director of Kunsthalle Zürich and Curator of the collection, this publication compiles essays that are particularly relevant to the changing meaning and value of art within the increasingly important contexts of globalism and the market.
