Playful Experiments

This publication provides a comprehensive overview of Ulrich Vogl’s current artistic practice. The starting point ofhis work is his fascination with everyday objects and places, their stories and moods. In his works, Vogl either integrates them unchanged, reshapes them, or leaves them only as references. Some of Vogl’s pieces are movable, some work with shadows, sound, and projections, often they are cinematic or time-based, low-tech, revealing their mode of production. They are always part of a playful, experimental, and conceptual process, at the end of which is a work reduced to its essentials. The book presents a large amount of what Vogl calls “cognitive catalysts.”

ULRICH VOGL (*1973) studied in Munich, Berlin, and New York. He creates wall works, sculptures, installations, and works in public space. He has lived and worked in Berlin since 1999.

Tactile Communication Systems

This first monograph by N. Dash provides a comprehensive overview of the work of this emerging American artist, whose work operates within diverse media and materials. In her abstract and process-oriented works, N. Dash uses natural as well as man-made substances such as pigments, clay, jute, graphite, fabric, string, Styrofoam, or found objects to explore intuitive, touch-based communication systems. With her focus on the visual and tactile qualities of material, N. Dash’s work combines the raw with the sensitive, the abject with the beautiful. The text contributions place her work in art-historical and anthropological contexts.

N. DASH (*1980) works with painting, sculpture, drawing, and photography. She studied at New York University and Columbia University. In 2022, she has solo exhibitions at S.M.A.K. in Ghent and SITE Santa Fe.
