John Latham (1921 - 2006) is widely considered a pioneer of British conceptual art.His multifaceted practice encompasses sculpture, installation, painting, film, land art, engineering, found-object, assemblage, performance happenings and theoretical writings, the diversity of which is galvanised by his unique understanding of our place in the universe.This publication traces the trajectory of Latham's practice and brings together archival material, including documentary photographs, texts, correspondence and various ephemera, in order to build a picture of the artist's life and work. Latham saw the artist as holding up a mirror to society: an individual whose dissent from the norm could lead to a profound reconfiguration of reality as we know it.Latham has been associated with several national and international artistic movements, including the first phase of conceptual art in the 1960s. He was an important contributor to the Destruction in Art Symposium of 1966, and also a co-founding member of the Artist Placement Group APG (1966-89).The Serpentine Gallery exhibition (and this accompanying catalogue) spans Latham's career to include his iconic spray and roller paintings; his one-second drawings; films such as Erth (1971), and Latham's monumental work, Five Sisters (1976) from his Scottish Office placement with APG.Published on the occasion of the exhibition, A World View: John Latham at Serpentine Gallery, London, 2 March - 21 May 2017.

Drawing on his own experiences and inspirations - from staging his first exhibition in his tiny Zurich kitchen in 1986 to encounters and conversations with artists, exhibition makers and thinkers alive and dead - Hans Ulrich Obrist's Ways of Curating looks to inspire all those engaged in the creation of culture. Moving from meetings with the artists who have inspired him (including Gerhard Richter and Gilbert and George) to the creation of the first public museums in the 18th century, recounting the practice of inspirational figures such as Diaghilev and Walter Hopps, skipping between exhibitions (his own and others), continents and centuries, Ways of Curating argues that curation is far from a static practice. Driven by curiosity, at its best it allows us to create the future.

"Many years ago this artist placed a singles ad in Denver's alternative weekly newspaper. The headline read "Work Hard, Play Hard" and now this book celebrates 25 years of happy marriage thanks to a fun advertising experiment. In a bit of whimsy, image and text play off of each other to create irreverent pairings of singles pick-up lines with intimate portraits of abandoned furniture that can be found cast aside like a bad romance on city streets everywhere. Twenty Polaroid-style photographs are paired with text highlighting the becoming features of the lonely furniture"--Artist's statement

In these multiple excursions through recent artist film-installations, Daniel Birnbaum pursues a problem that preoccupied Deleuze in post-war cinema: what is the logic of this peculiar time ?after finitude?, based neither in God nor Man, salvation nor destiny; and what does it mean for our brains and our lives to invent new ways to make it visible? With a light wry wit, he thus renews a question, at once aesthetic and philosophical, still very much with us.John Rajchman, Philosopher, Columbia UniversityBoth a deep insight into the future and a protest against forgetting (Eric Hobsbawm), Daniel Birnbaum's essay Chronology is quite simply the best art book of the year.Hans Ulrich Obrist, Co-director of exhibitions and director of international programs, Serpentine Gallery A philosophical essay on time, phenomenology and beyond, Daniel Birnbaum?s Chronology was reviewed in frieze as a ?compelling and sophisticated take on the common theme of Deleuzian immanence.? Brian Dillon, writer and criticWhereas many theoretical books littering the bookshops of art institutions are laudations of excess, Daniel Birnbaum?s convictions presented in Chronology cut a way through the ?caesuras of non-meaning and blankness into the thick web of sense.? The works of artists such as Paul Chan, Stan Douglas, Eija-Liisa Ahtila, Doug Aitken, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, Tacita Dean, Darren Almond, Tobias Rehberger, Pierre Huyghe, and Philippe Parreno are scrutinized as so many attempts to capture the very dialectic of time itself. The book can be seen as ?an exploration of the crystallization of time that uses phenomenology as a pretext for saying things about artworks that create their own theories?.Fully illustrated, this 2nd edition features a new introduction where the author reflects on the book?s critical reception and further extends Deleuzian ideas to the fields of art and film. In his afterword on Paul Chan, Daniel Birnbaum discusses a new sense of messianic time, a new chronology, as experienced with The 7 Lights series by the artist.In addition to annotated artwork illustrations, the book contains a special insert by Paul Chan: twelve original drawings capturing the spatial metaphors evocated in the text. The book also features flip-book sequences from two films (Lady of Shanghai, 1947, Enter the Dragon, 1973) which elaborate on the Deleuzian themes of mirrors, death, and the crystallization of time.Daniel Birnbaum?s Chronology has become a productive point of reference and a source of inspiration for critics, curators, and ? perhaps more surprisingly ? dancers and choreographers. It has been reviewed extensively across Europe and has been translated into Russian and French, with German and Italian editions forthcoming.Daniel Birnbaum is Director of the Stadelschule and its Portikus gallery in Frankfurt am Main. A contributing editor of Artforum, he is the author of several books on art and philosophy, including The Hospitality of Presence: Problems of Otherness in Husserl?s Phenomenology (1998). He co-curated the 50th Venice Biennale (2003) and the 1st Moscow Biennale (2005). He is the co-organizer, with Christine Macel, of Airs de Paris (2007), an exhibition that celebrates the 30th anniversary of the Centre Pompidou.
