Simon, Taryn: Birds of the West Indies

Text(e) von Daniel Baumann u.a. Gestaltung von Joseph Logan und Taryn Simon. [Katalog anlässlich der Ausstellung in Carnegie International, Pittsburgh, 5.10.2013-16.3.2014]. In a meticulous and comprehensive dissection of the Bond films, artist Taryn Simon inventoried women, weapons and vehicles in Bond. The contents of these categories function as essential accessories to the narrative’s myth of the seductive, powerful, and invincible western male. In Birds of the West Indies, Simon presents a visual database of interchangeable variables used in the production of fantasy, through which she examines the economic and emotional value generated by their repetition. 439 Seiten mit 210 meist farbigen Abb., Großformat, Leinen (Hatje Cantz 2013) leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear
