Read a Parkett Text on Eija Liisa Ahtila
Parkett Vol. 68
Quote from Parkett
“Ahtila’s moving pictures often revolve around the house: around the objects and people that enter it from the outside and close it off from the inside. Access roads, parking places, bridges along the way, doors that are opened into the house from outside by odd visitors, curtains that keep out the light, cars that traverse the walls of the rooms, beds under which one can hide, drafts that undo everything: the picture that Ahtila conjures of a house is a fragile affair, somewhere between dollhouse and house of cards, model and construction site.”
Gertrud Koch, Parkett No. 68, 2003
Additional Quote
“A pure wool jacket emblazoned with text on both front and back, Ahtila here moves away from her realm of experimental filmmaking and moving image melodrama to produce a truly unique multiple. "Veil of ignorance" is printed on the back of the garment whilst it is mirror-inverted on the front, making it so that it is legible for others from behind and to oneself when standing in front of a looking glass. Released with the statement that "Ignorance is the mirror of knowledge", this fascinating piece is available in 5 different sizes and published in a limited edition of only 70. The dark suits appear like an official uniform, suits of bureaucratic authority. Although portrayed by the models in poses that evoke a fashion shoot, the printed text acts as a constant self-reflexive reminder to the wearer to not relinquish knowledge for ignorance.”

Read a Parkett Text on Allora & Calzadilla
Parkett Vol. 80
Quote from Parkett
“...materiality and metaphoricity constitute a couple. In other words, a material is never simply self-evident in its meaning; it is always marked with histories, cultures, and politics that are at once irreducible to and indissociable from the material in question. Any material is going to have the weight of history inscribed in it. The time of the world is there; geologically, geopolitically, there is always an allegorical dimension to materials. A tropical plant, for instance, cannot be treated as a bare biological life without effacing its colonial genealogy, even though we are quite interested in the actual temporalities and processes of the living organism as a sculptural problematic.”

Read a Parkett Text on Laurie Anderson
Parkett Vol. 49
Quote from Parkett
“Firmly rooted in time and in the world, her art explores a territory between keen wakefulness and (day)-dreams, where things of the real world and visions together penetrate consciousness, where perception stimulates dreams, and dreams sharpen perception. …For almost three decades, ceaselessly circling themes and motifs in text, image, and music have been coupled in Laurie Anderson’s performances and installations with new material, forever evolving in a cosmology-in-flux, in the endless flow of a great work in progress.”
Jacqueline Burckhardt, Parkett No. 49, 1997
Additional Quote
“Anderson's ingenious multiple takes the form of a seemingly decorative earring made up of a lithium battery, a circuit board, and a loudspeaker. Blending aesthetics with technology, it allows the delivery of a private sound message from the artist to the wearer. Designed to be worn rather like the earpiece of presenters and security guards, this work is firmly rooted in the real world and reveals Anderson's longstanding preoccupation with interactions between music and sculpture.”

Nairy Baghramian‘s two-part sculpture “Maintainers” consists of a cast of wax used for polishing aluminum and a seemingly identical aluminum cast. The two objects appear in close relationship and interact throughout the artist‘s serial casting process, as the wax cast is potentially consumed during the polishing act. The work playfully explores Nairy Baghramian‘s conceptual interests in “... thingly speculations, ... the organic and the mechanic, ... and the corporeal and the mental". (Caoimhín Mac Giola Léith in Parkett 100/101)
Read a Parkett Text on Nairy Baghramian
Parkett Vol. 100/101
Quote from Parkett
"Baghramian has often argued against both didactic art, on the one hand, and the adoption of social or political activity as a substitute for art in pictorial or sculptural form on the other. Even so, it is tempting to view the signature stratagem just outlined, her sculptures’ proclivity for boundaries, as emblematic of so many regulatory interventions or blockages in the flow of people, resources, ideas, capital across the world’s borders, many of which are currently being refortified and increasingly policed after a sustained period of relative relaxation."

Read a Parkett Text on Yto Barrada
Parkett Vol. 91
Quote from Parkett
"Yto Barrada’s photographs are fragments of a language of orientation, paralysis, pain, fragile resistance, a declaration of love for a city that signifies home, politics, commodities, trade—and life. The artist’s pictures dawdle and dally as if they had all time in the world, only to spin a web of illusions and information."
Urs Stahel, Parkett No. 91, 2012
Additional Quote
“Documenting details of life in Morroco, Yto Barrada’s photographs and films select evocative scenic details for greater study or contemplation. In her 2001 photographic diptych Aquariums for Sale on a Rainy Day, Tangier, Barrada finds a wistful image. Inside the stacked aquariums water is both strictly contained and required for sustaining life, outside it drips by, transient.” -Artspace

Quote from Parkett
“For Bonvicini titles are concrete, practical equivalents or absurd allegories. One way or another, language and built structures are positioned next to and on top of each other, abruptly engaging in blatant acts like the protagonists in a choreographed porn scenario. Fractured quotes and voiceless material mutually transform: it is as though words and sentences were materializing, developing a physical presence on the wall, in the dust, rigidified into fragmented letters; it is as though built structures were, in return, soaking up syntax and signification.”

Quote from Parkett
"For Brätsch, demonstrative style has ... to do with the mix and match borrowings of high fashion, DIY subculture, and the manufacturing of persona found in advertising and online viral campaigns."
Fionn Meade, Parkett No. 88, 2011
Additional Quote
“These fabric multiples are typical of Brätsch's interdisciplinary practice that critiques marketing techniques and image distribution within contemporary society. This line of multilayer knit pieces can be attached to items of clothing to promote the artist's creations, in a pastiche of the sandwich board. Decomposing advertising strategies from the inside, Brätsch's works reveal different design layers, to be unfolded one by one.

Parkett Vol. 66
Quote from Parkett
“Angela Bulloch’s work is based on activating the dynamics of [the] relationship between technical possibility and cultural space of perception... the presentation always takes the shape of a mix, contains shifts in size and speed, and can therefore never be reduced to one single interpretation.”
Martin Prinzhorn, Parkett No. 66, 2002
Additional Quote
“Based on her 2002 sculptural installation of the same name, Angela Bulloch’s Horizontal Technicolour depicts an array of colored boxes, lit by interior fluorescent tubes. The lamps, which come in different colors and are digitally dimmed or brightened over time, are capable of creating a staggering number of color combinations—here, they are captured in one such moment of colorful display.” -Artspace

Parkett Vol. 97
Quote from Parkett
"Throughout her practice, the artist probes 'tricky' thresholds not often explored in contemporary art – the blurry line between amateur making and fine art production, for instance, or the unexpected relationship between marginal religious experiences and philosophies of modernist contemplation."
Julia Bryan-Wilson, Parkett No. 97, 2015
Additional Quote
“Büttner has remarked that throughout art history—from Joseph Beuys to Nam June Paik—men have destroyed pianos to symbolize the death of bourgeois culture—a violent last gesture in the face of its end. Her silkscreen Piano Stool and the eponymous object are a gentle response to this— a "Wistful reminder of the grand piano that once was". Büttner's visual economy in this print is striking, as curator Aram Moshayedi states: "Büttner's prints instead speak of slowness… insisting on a modesty of means seemingly at odds with the demands of the global art world." -Fineartmultiple

Read a Parkett Text on Tacita Dean
Parkett Vol. 62
Quote from Parkett
“When asked, ‘What is the relation between sound and image in your work?’ Dean answered, ‘My interest resides in this gap between the sound and the image… I require sound to have its own autonomy.’ Thus, in opposition to an approach to cinema in which the viewer experiences a sense of identification with the spectacle, Dean creates a mode of apprehension in which the observer feels at odds with what she sees. (…) The slightly disjointed relationship between the sound and image, compounded by the clearly physical presence of the projector creates caesurae, which force the beholder to return to real-time, lived bodily experience rather than that of the cinematic.”
Paula Carabell, Parkett No. 62, 2001
Additional Quote
“A unique, stamped color postcard sent by Tacita Dean to Parkett, Dean’s The Green Ray is a sweet example of mail art and relational aesthetics.

Read a Parkett text on Trisha Donnelly
Parkett Vol. 77
Quote from Parkett
“Trisha Donnelly, whose exhibitions suggest a fundamentally iconoclastic approach, and who—even in the sparsest showing of her pictures—will punctuate their reception with unexpected bursts of sound (in the same way that film scores influence one’s perception of the images on screen), seems to be particularly interested in pictures, or rather in the reconfiguration of our perception of pictures. She has immense faith in the ‘pictures’ that she creates through drawing, video, photography, sound, text, and ‘demonstrations,’ for her use of different media always plumbs the depths of that realm, where, through force of will, fantasy, and imagination, ‘things’ actually come to exist and have meaning.”
Beatrix Ruf, Parkett No. 77, 2006
Additional Quote
“Akin to her site-specific practice, Donnelly here involves the collector in the process of art production and reception. She conceives an edition subscription, where a total of 10 installments are made and delivered regularly over the period of one year. Consisting of four Xeroxes, three gelatin silver prints, one line-block, one felt-tip pen drawing, and marble slab, this edition makes for twelve months of mystery: ten unpredictable messages that will (or will not) be decoded in the record left behind.” -Fineartmultiple

Quote from Parkett
"I started out as a painter. Today, I'm both painter an sculptor in equal parts. The third dimension has always been important to me. I want people to walk into a picture in order to feel the tension between the object and the space around it, between postive and negative. The colors I use invest the objects with life and emotion. That interaction is extremely important in my work."

Parkett Vol. 73
Quote from Parkett
“Gallagher is a handworking, hand laborer (...). The production of a simple, flat, engaging image is never her sole purpose. This is why she works in print, as well as in painting and in drawing. Process, layers, materials—physicality is everything to her. Flesh is a texture as much as a color. DeLuxe is collage (paper), photomontage (digital), photogravure (the process of printing from an intaglio plate, etched according to a photographic image); it is mounted, built-up and –upon by: abrasion, aquatint, burnishing, drypoint, embrossing, etching, laser cutting, stenciling, tattoo-machine engraving (yes for skin)—adding blue varnish, crystals, cut paper, toy eyeballs, white spaces, glitter, gold leaf, pomade... and this is not even the half of it.”

Quote from Parkett
“Models—I wanted the pieces to be like models—are usually more fragile than some monumental metal sculpture. And people often find it very pleasing when they can still see something old, intended as a sketch, because it’s been preserved. Fragility can be a very beautiful thing, more beautiful than something that’s obviously made to last forever. It’s very important to me that the things I’m making are really by me, and not made by assistants or farmed out as commissions. Every piece is by me, made by my own hand.”

Read a Parkett Text on Tomma Abts
Parkett Vol. 84
Quote from Parkett
“Abts' compositions in fact emerge out of the give-and-take that comes with the application of numerous successive layers of paint and through choices being elaborated over many months. Interlocking linear elements might float across densely layered fields, objective aggregations of the thin strata.”
Suzanne Hudson, Parkett 84, 2008
Additional Quote
“Painter Tomma Abts here creates a winding, silvery form that draws attention to the act of painting. In this print, the metallic and black abstraction forces one to consider, and follow, its path around the canvas. The print truly bears the stamp of the artist, measuring exactly 48 x 38 cm—the framework Abts sets up for each piece she creates. The abstract geometric forms of the print are equally characteristic of the artist's non-representational style of working and refer to themselves and themselves only, disentangling the artist from any form of symbolism and figuration.”
