Inside a Book of Gold: Artist's Edition with Parkett

UCCA Beijing

 Beijing | China
Feb 25, 2012 - Apr 08, 2012
Founded in Zurich in 1984, PARKETT is an art journal like no other. In more than eighty issues over the past twenty-seven years, it has produced limited edition works with many of the most important artists of our time. Taken together, these 213 works by 192 artists offer a collective portrait of the situation and evolution of art at the turn of the twenty-first century. The works cover every possible medium including painting, photography, drawing, print, sculpture, video, and sound. Some represent the essence of a given artist鈥檚 work; others reveal an unexpected dimension.

Installed across three spaces at UCCA in the form of a house, the exhibition 鈥淚nside a Book a House of Gold鈥� takes its name from a saying by the most artistic of Chinese emperors, Song Huizong. The works are divided and exhibited according to the logic of domestic space, with a 鈥淧layroom,鈥� a 鈥淪tudio,鈥� a 鈥淐ity,鈥� and a 鈥淲ardrobe鈥� framing a central 鈥淕arden.鈥� Each of these rooms takes on a special feel and character, aided by radically different walls and other spatial interventions.


Accompanied by a bilingual (Chinese-English) catalogue raisonn茅 of all editions made with PARKETT to date, including texts by Deborah Wye, Susan Tallman, Philip Tinari, and Po Hung.
