( A new series in collaboration with Fondazione Antonio R...)
A new series in collaboration with Fondazione Antonio Ratti in Italy, each book focusing on a different artist that has taken part in their Advanced Course in Visual Arts. Black Dog Publishing start this series with the internationally acclaimed radical artists Hans Haacke and Susan Hiller. The books focus on the individual artists, their work, the themes that were addressed on the course and their commentary on the contemporary art world. This book focuses on his 2010 site-specific work, Once Upon a Time... screened in a disused church, San Francesco in Como, Italy. For the installation, Haacke projected footage from major Italian television channels onto sections of the original seventeenth century frescoes adorning the church’s apse. These videos were juxtaposed onto the frescoes, filling in the gaps where the originals had faded due to the ravages of time, the artist introduced continuously changing glimpses of Italy’s contemporary corporate culture. Into the missing parts of the frescoes the artist video-projects live TV programs of Rete 4, Italia 1, Canale 5 and the Milan stock exchange data in real time, in order to create a sort of collage made of seventeenth century representations and contemporary video images. Hans Haacke also exhibited two of his other works in the church, in response to the architecture of San Francesco and its frescos, Wide White Flow 1967 and The Population meets St. Francis. The book juxtaposes Hans Haacke’s writings from San Francesco with speech transcripts from Berlusconi and other essays commenting on his work to provide an overview of the contemporary work of this established artist.

Every year the Serpentine Gallery, located in the heart of Hyde Park in central London, invites an internationally renowned architect or designer to design a temporary pavilion in their grounds for the summer. In 2006, a 24-Hour Interview Marathon event took place in the Pavilion designed by architect Rem Koolhaas. It featured over 60 world-renowned artists, architects, writers, designers and theorists, among them David Adjaye, Damien Hirst, Gilbert and George, Hussein Chalayan and Doris Lessing, as well as the Director of the Serpentine Gallery, Julia Peyton-Jones. The interviews were hosted by the architect of the Pavilion, Rem Koolhaas, and the Serpentine Gallery s Co-director of Exhibitions and Programmes, Hans Ulrich Obrist. Small and with a soft-cover in the format of a traditional flip-book , the book is a lively representation of the now legendary 24-hour marathon of interviews, held with some of the greatest names in international contemporary culture. A highly visual and energetic book for its small size, it features over 150 colour and black and white illustrations and photographs interspersed with text extracts from the interviews, and moves along in chronological order of the 24 hours. Koolhaas is one of the latest additions to an illustrious list of architects which include Zaha Hadid (2000), Daniel Libeskind (2001),Oscar Niemeyer (2003), Álvaro Siza and Eduardo Souto de Moura with Cecil Balmond (2005), and Olafur Eliasson (2007).
