Item Number: 130248 Title: JOACHIM KOESTER : of spirits and empty spaces Author: Caron, Thomas Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788867490882 Description: Milano: Mousse Publishing, 2014. 24cm., hardcover, 352pp. illus. Exhibition catalogue. Summary: Starting in the mid-1990s, Joachim Koester developed an oeuvre that could be described as a complex web in which journalistic and historical research fuses with personal and fictive narratives. He belongs to an artists’ generation whose practices are based on what Hal Foster once described as the “archival approach.” Balancing the thin line between documentary and fiction, Koester’s films, photos, and installations reexamine and activate forgotten histories, failed utopias, and the obsolete. In his work, bygone counter-cultural movements reemerge in the same way that geographical and spiritual journeys are retraced. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O.
