Matthew Barney works in film, video, photography, drawing, installation and sculpture, as well as sound. This catalogue, produced in collaboration with the artist, documents works from the world-famous Goetz Collection in Munich--spanning from early sculptural and performance pieces beginning in 1992 through the artist's most recent work in digital media. As in his 2003 retrospective at New York's Guggenheim Museum, Barney's Goetz Collection exhibition presents all five Cremaster films, with sound, simultaneously, thus turning the series into an installation that addresses all of the human senses.
This volume contains an introductory essay by Stephan Urbaschek; a text on the use of sound in Barney's work by Brandon Stosuy; interviews with the artist and his composer, Jonathan Bepler; a text on Cremaster 1 through 5 by Domenika Szope; a summary of Drawing Restraint 9 and a glossary by Karsten Lockemann; and a select bibliography and exhibition checklist by Katharina Vossenkuhl..

This fifth installation from the world-renowned Goetz Collection showcases eight artists born between 1949 and 1976, including James Casebere, Barnaby Hosking, Zilla Leutenegger, Magnus Plessen, Wilhelm Sasnal, Dana Schutz, Laurie Simmons and Matthias Weischer. Casebere and Simmons are likely the best known to most readers; the third featured American artist, Dana Schutz, born in 1976, creates politically tinged fairytale figures and narratives in paint, like "the last man in the world." Among her European compatriots are Hosking, born in 1976, who makes video installations on how works of art are created, from paintings to bowls for Japanese tea ceremonies. Wilhelm Sasnal, born in 1972, began by studying architecture; his films use press photos, collages, videos, comics, old-master paintings and simple snapshots. This series' topic is broadly defined as contemporary painting, and its hallmark--as the genre's--may be that its canvases vary widely from the traditional cloth..

The sixth and final volume of the Imagination Becomes Reality series, featuring works from the renowned Goetz Collection in Munich, includes a selection of works by 50 of the most interesting and relevant artists of our day, all of whom expand on the discourse of painting without ever being limited to one medium. Ingvild Goetz remarks: "Many artists expand the medium of painting in sculpture, photography and video; that is, they 'paint' on different surfaces, whereas conversely, painters often first generate their pictures on computers to then ultimately transfer them to canvas." This volume collects key works by Franz Ackermann, Olaf Breuning, James Casebere, Peter Doig, Inka Essenhigh, Barnaby Furnas, Wade Guyton/Kelley Walker, Eberhard Havekost, Lothar Hempel, William Kentridge, Mark Leckey, Loretta Lux, Raymond Pettibon, Lari Pittman, Michael Raedecker, Wilhelm Sasnal, Dana Schutz, Markus Selg, Cindy Sherman, Laurie Simmons, Hiroshi Sugito, Tal R and Jeff Wall, among others..
