andy Warhol always made himself<br />
available and accessible to younger<br />
emerging artists, and in the vibrant<br />
new York art scene of the 1980s,<br />
Jean-michel Basquiat and Francesco<br />
Clemente forged particularly close<br />
friendships with Warhol—even becoming<br />
something of a triumvirate, as this<br />
new publication on the three artists<br />
shows. Between 1983 and 1985,<br />
Basquiat, Clemente and Warhol<br />
produced a number of collaborative<br />
paintings whose compositional vitality<br />
lay in their fusion of contrary energies,<br />
and the three constantly borrowed<br />
and adapted motifs from each other,<br />
also making portraits of one another.<br />
Ménage à Trois: Warhol, Basquiat,<br />
Clemente offers a comprehensive<br />
overview of this generative friendship,<br />
which is contextualized through<br />
full-color reproductions, documentary<br />
photographs, essays and an interview<br />
with Bruno Bischofberger, the collector<br />
who initiated Warhol and Basquiat’s<br />
collaborations.<br />

Andy Warhol:<br />
Paintings from<br />
the 1970s<br />
skArsTedT GALLerY, LTd.<br />
Text by Trevor fairbrother.<br />
after andy Warhol was shot in 1968,<br />
some critics accused him of softening<br />
the intensity of his art in favor of pursuing<br />
a more superficial, jet-setting social<br />
agenda. and it is true that during<br />
the 1970s, Warhol focused much of<br />
his energy on less solitary activities—<br />
filmmaking, his “superstars” and<br />
supporting Interview, his adventurous<br />
underground magazine. However,<br />
Warhol’s art practice of the 1970s underwent<br />
huge changes and forged into<br />
vital realms that have proved as influential<br />
as his earlier work. During this<br />
decade he produced such iconic series<br />
as the abstract Oxidation paintings,<br />
which combined urine on metallic copper;<br />
the classic Ladies and Gentlemen<br />
portraits depicting new York’s drag<br />
community; his screen prints of the<br />
actor and native american political<br />
activist russell means, and of the<br />
Chinese Communist leader, mao<br />
Zedong; as well as the Shadow, Skulls<br />
and Hammer & Sickle series. this<br />
volume collects works from each of<br />
these series, alongside an essay by<br />
curator-scholar trevor Fairbrother.<br />

Jasper Johns:<br />
In Press<br />
The Crosshatch Works and the<br />
Logic of Print<br />
hATJe CAnTz<br />
Text by Jennifer quick, Jennifer L.<br />
roberts.<br />
Centering on “the Dutch Wives”<br />
(1975), a double-panel encaustic-andnewsprint<br />
painting in the artist’s signature<br />
“crosshatch” motif, this catalogue<br />
explores the impact of print on the<br />
work of Jasper Johns (born 1930). the<br />
two panels of “the Dutch Wives” are<br />
imperfect duplicates of each other—a<br />
reminder that the process of the mechanical<br />
reproduction of words and<br />
images is never quite perfect. the<br />
book examines the concepts of “print”<br />
and “the press” in terms not only of<br />
printmaking and Johns’ celebrated experiments<br />
in that medium, but also in<br />
informational terms, tracing his frequent<br />
use of newsprint and its material,<br />
temporal, political, and formal<br />
implications. the publication also features<br />
prints and drawings by Johns<br />
that help demonstrate the aspects of<br />
printmaking that inform his entire<br />
oeuvre: repetition, reversal, indexicality,<br />
layering, sequencing and topology.<br />

Keiichi Tanaami:<br />
Drawings and<br />
Collages<br />
1967–1975<br />

Text by stefano stoll.<br />
Keiichi tanaami (born 1936) is one of<br />
the most influential artists of Japan’s<br />
postwar avant-garde. among the country’s<br />
first video artists, and a member<br />
of the Japanese neo-Dada movement,<br />
tanaami visited new York in the late<br />
1960s and came face to face with the<br />
paintings of andy Warhol. Having<br />
worked as a graphic designer, tanaami<br />
was entranced by Warhol’s amalgam of<br />
graphic and fine arts, and began to<br />
make drawings and collages that<br />
blended psychedelic kitsch with traditional<br />
Japanese arts, in a style that<br />
quickly led to album covers for the<br />
monkees and Jefferson airplane. this<br />
volume collects tanaami’s erotic, surreal<br />
and cartoonish drawings and collages<br />
from these years, when the artist<br />
was most steeped in american pop<br />
culture, just before he became art director<br />
for the Japanese Playboy. the<br />

Neo Rauch: The Graphic Work, 1993–2012<br />

foreword by kerstin wahala. Text by rudij bergmann. Interview by wolfgang büscher.<br />
one of today’s best-known contemporary artists, new Leipzig School painter neo rauch (born<br />
1960) blends the realistic figuration of Social realism with Surrealism: brightly colored figures<br />
parade through upended environments, and multiple historical periods overlap in a single work.<br />
most recognized for his paintings and drawings, rauch has also created an impressive output of<br />
printed works over the past two decades, which visit the same themes as the rest of his output,<br />
and in rauch’s own words “are accessories to my painting.” this publication presents the artist’s<br />
complete oeuvre of prints from 1993 to today, and celebrates rauch’s gift of an edition of each of<br />
his prints to the town of aschersleben in germany, where he was raised. the collection will form<br />
the basis of a new art foundation and exhibition space, established in the artist’s name.<br />
Neo Rauch (born 1960) was born, reared and trained as an artist in Leipzig, where he continues to<br />
live. In august 2005, rauch was awarded the chair of painting at Leipzig University..<br />

Luc Tuymans: Graphic<br />
Works 1989–2012<br />

edited by Tommy simoens. Text by Manfred sellink.<br />
Graphic Works 1989–2012 offers a retrospective of graphic work by Luc tuymans<br />
(born 1958), arguably the most celebrated Belgian artist working today,<br />
whose recreations of historically saturated imagery examine themes of memory<br />
and trauma. Using unpublished source material and proofs, polaroids and<br />
watercolors—some from the archives of master printer roger vandaele and<br />
the artist’s own studio—this book offers in-depth insight into tuymans’ variety<br />
of graphic techniques and his process of analysis and translation of images,<br />
color separations and proofs. the volume concludes with an illustrated survey<br />
of the artist’s complete graphic work from 1989 to 2012, ranging from a photocopied<br />
portfolio with a selection of tuymans’ early drawings through suites<br />
such as The Spiritual Exercises to his masterpiece The Rumor, an installation<br />
combining a series of monotypes and a scale model in a single edition.<br />
