1955 fand die erste documenta in Kassel statt. Zunächst als einmalig konzipiert, ist sie zu einer heute alle fünf Jahre wiederkehrenden, grundlegenden Ausstellung und Reflexion zeitgenössischer Kunst geworden. In seinem Essay, 1987 an der University of British Columbia, Vancouver, als Vorlesung gehalten, beleuchtet Ian Wallace die erste documenta, die nach dem 2. Weltkrieg ebenjenen Künstlern ein Forum bieten wollte, die im Nationalsozialismus als » entartet « verfemt worden waren. Die erste documenta ist gleichermaßen Spiegel wie Protagonist des kulturellen und politischen Klimas der Nachkriegszeit und hat unter der Führung von Arnold Bode, mit Unterstützung Werner Haftmanns, wesentlich zum Siegeszug der Abstraktion beigetragen, der West-Deutschland den Anschluss an die europäische Moderne verschaffte. Ian Wallace (*1943) ist Künstler. Er lebt in Vancouver und hat an der University of British Columbia sowie der Emily Carr University of Art and Design gelehrt. Sprache: Deutsch/Englisch

This is the first extensive survey catalogue of the work of Vancouver-based artist Ian Wallace—a key figure of the extraordinary artistic ferment in the Canadian city of Vancouver, a pioneer and theorist of its internationally regarded tradition of photo-conceptualism, and a teacher and colleague of such luminaries as Jeff Wall, Rodney Graham, and Stan Douglas. Energized by the dialectic tensions between monochrome painting and documentary or staged photography, between the emblematic sites of street, studio and nature, Wallace''s practice fosters engagement with the persistent impulses of vanguard modernism. A distinguished company of European thinkers, curators and critics have been invited to consider Wallace''s art, inspirations, and influence: Vanessa Joan Müller considers the persistence of the monochrome in the artist''s oeuvre; Dieter Roelstraete addresses the dialectics of street and studio; and the eminent French philosopher Jacques Rancière pursues his on-going meditation on the politics of aesthetics, which has had a strong influence on Wallace''s thinking about art. The indispensable reference includes extensive color reproductions, catalogue of exhibited works, a chronology, and thorough bibliographic information.

Amazon Verified Purchase"Ian has put together a fine collection of anecdotes and memoirs from his working life and more specifically from his time spent working on a French vinery where he brings alive his new found love and rapidly growing knowledge of French wine and the industry behind it. During a previous French business venture, Ian finds a willing Frenchman to pass on his knowledge and he soon finds himself getting to grips with the subtleties of wine and how to select the correct wine to go with almost any gastronomic experience, determining that some wines will compliment say meat or fish dish whereas others actually detract from it; quite an art form! From there on he determines to expand his knowledge further with a working holiday at a vineyard helping to make a vintage or `vendange''.I should add that all of this is recounted in a most amusing fashion and even if you are not at all interested in wines or vineyards you will still find this book hard to put down as Ian keeps the flow and interest going throughout.My only slight annoyance was that I came across a few typos early on in the book but this is a very minor complaint.All in all this is a highly recommended read and I look forward to more tales from Ian''s interesting and varied working life."4.0 out of 5 stars Raise your glasses, please! 7 Dec 2013By Karen GuttridgeFormat:Kindle Edition

What they discover as they retrace the victim''s footsteps leads them inexorably into ancient customs and civilizations unknown to Man and to incredible riches. It also makes them targets for government agencies who don''t want the truth to be known. Pentagon Five is an adventure story with esoteric roots. The characters are fictional; the plot is semi-fictional but many of the events and references are all too real. As to the denouement, that is still to come.
