Gerwald Rockenschaub
Published by Galerie nächst St. Stephan, Vienna, 1986, unpaginated (colour ill.), 21 × 22 cm, German
Price: €19 (Out of stock)

Publication produced on the occasion of Gerwald Rockenschaub’s exhibition at Galerie nächst St. Stephan, Vienna, 3 May–22 June, 1986.

Gerwald Rockenschaub works within a formal repertoire that he began developing in the 1980s when he was a central figure in the emerging “neo-geo” (neo-geometric conceptualism) movement. Uniquely influenced by his work as a techno DJ and composer of electronic music, Rockenschaub absorbs the everyday imagery and forms of logos, traffic signs, and pictograms to produce sculptures, wall installations, and animations that render an aura of hyperrealist perfection.

Vivian Suter
Published by Secession, Vienna & GAMeC, Bergamo, 2023, 168 pages, with leaf insert (colour & b/w ill.), 17 × 24 cm, English / German
Price: €44

Between December 2022 and March 2023, Vivian Suter shared hundreds of photos, all taken with her mobile phone, with the designer and editor of this book. A selection of these snapshots, condensed, juxtaposed, complementing each other, now forms a kind of photographic journal. It offers insights into Suter’s work on her art and everyday life, which are inextricably interwoven: Photos of canvases and paint pots in the thicket of her jungle-like garden and in the studio, of her dogs, of the house with its characteristic aquamarine green and purplish-red walls, of family pictures, of the play of light and shadow in nature and architecture. Among the many photos, one occasionally finds images of watercolours on (coloured) paper, which the artist made especially for the book. Designed by Sabo Day.

Price: €15

German artist Blinky Palermo has been associated with distinct 20th-century art practices, from Abstraction to Minimalism and Conceptual art. Throughout his brief and influential career—leading all the way up to his untimely death at the age of 33, Palermo executed paintings, objects, installations, and works on paper that mined various contextual and semantic issues at stake in the construction, exhibition and reception of works of art.
