Text engl., span. - Orders: circulacion@exitmedia.net. „100 Video Artists is a bold commitment to the medium that was born just 50 years ago, and which has become the most distinctive visual language of the 21st century. A hundred of the most significant and innovative video artists working today, of every generation, from the pioneers who began to develop this medium to young experimental creators. Video is a new and changing form of visual expression, on the crossroads of film, television, photography and action, between conceptual art, social criticism and the documentary. 100 Video Artists is a book which includes essays by two prominent specialists in the history of video art and current international video creation (David A. Ross and Christine Van Assche). The 100 artists each have a text devoted to their practice, written by an expert on contemporary art, illustrated with images of some of their most important videos (selected by the artists themselves). The majority of the artists chose the critic or theorist who wrote their essay. Authors from the whole world and from every sphere have taken part in this landmark publication which establishes a starting point for the study and analysis of video art today. 100 Video Artists is the first publication to approach the subject at this international level: 100 artists of 36 nationalities and 85 authors from 19 countries have come together to participate in an innovative and independent project, far from the trends presented by collections, museums and the market. A work made up exclusively of visual creation and specialised criticism. The main text authors are: Christine Van Assche is Head Curator at the Centre Georges Pompidou, in charge of the New Media department. She has curated numerous exhibitions as well as thematic shows such as La Vidéo, un art, une histoire. David A. Ross has a 38 year career as a museum professional, educator and arts entrepreneur. He directed the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston (1982-90), the Whitney Museum, New York (1991-98), and SFMoMA, San Francisco (1998-2001). Ross has lectured at various universities across the U.S., and has served as juror and commissioner at a broad range of international exhibitions, including the Venice Biennial and the Carnegie International.(Publisher’s text).

Text dt.; Glossar. - Zur Geschichte der optischen Bildentstehung. - „Ausgangspunkt für diese interessante Publikation ist Werner Nekes´ einmalige Sammlung mit historischen optischen Geräten, die als Vorläufer des Films angesehen werden können. Hier werden ca. 200 Exponate der Sammlung - Anamorphosen, Laternae Magicae, Kaleidoskope, Perpektivtheater, Wundertrommeln u.a.m. präsentiert. Dazu kommen Arbeiten zeitgenössischer Künstler, die sich dieser alten Techniken wieder bedienen, um zum Beispiel den Prozess der Bilderzeugung wieder sicht- und nachvollziehbar werden zu lassen. Den Band komplettieren einige Essays und zahlreiche Quellentexte zur Kulturgeschichte des Sehens.“ (Buchh. Lindemann Stuttgart 11.2012). - „Vom digitalen Image zurück zum analogen Bild. Sie lenken, bannen, verführen und täuschen das Betrachterauge: Anamorphosen, Laterna-Magica-Geräte, Kaleidoskope, Perspektivtheater oder Wundertrommeln. Den Bildern, optischen Geräten und Apparaturen, die als Vorläufer für Film, Fernsehen und das digitale Zeitalter anzusehen sind, wenden sich heute viele Künstler zu. Ihr Interesse ist weniger von einer nostalgischen Sehnsucht geleitet als von dem Ziel, die aktuelle Bildproduktion und gegenwärtige Sehweisen zu hinterfragen und den Prozess der Bilderzeugung sichtbar zu machen. So stellt Blickmaschinen zu diesem Thema Werke von 40 Künstlern seit den 1960er Jahren rund 200 historischen Exponaten aus der einzigartigen Sammlung des Filmemachers Werner Nekes gegenüber. In dieser Zusammenschau werden die Ursprünge und die Faszination erfahrbar, die seit jeher die Bildproduktion bestimmen. Zugleich zeigt sich, wie sehr Realität und Fiktion, Illusion und Vision ineinandergreifen.“ (www.amazon.de).

Text engl. - Haupteintrag/ Main entry. - „The notion of the minor, developed by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari in Kafka, Towards a Minor Literature (1975), is introduced and connected here for the very first time to the field of photography theory. Deleuze and Guattari defined minor literature in terms of deterritorialization, politicization and collectivization. By transferring ‘the minor' to the medium of photography, this book enlarges the idea of ‘the minor' and opens it up to all kinds of mutations in the process. The essays gathered in this book discuss the ways in which photography can make the dominant codes of representation stammer and how it can produce new affects and address people yet to come. - The authors consider ‘the minor' as a valuable tool to help photography research move beyond, or in between, binary and hierarchized ways of thinking (of high and low art, for example, or centre and periphery). As such, it aims to contribute to a rethinking of photography as multiplicity and variation. Consequently, the term is connected with both marginal and canonical photographic practices, covering photographers as different as Miroslav Tichy, Paul McCarthy, Tacita Dean, Dan Graham, and Paul Nougé. After developing a theory of the minor, this book explores how the operations of the minor can be found in major art practices. It closes by tackling the question of photography as variation in case studies of belated forms of surrealist photography.“ (Press release). The book consist of thre chapters of essays. The chapter are titled: 1. Towards a Theory of the Minor, 2. Major Artists - Minor Practice? 3. Surrealism in Variation.
