De Gruyter Gestalterinnen: Frauen, Design und Gesellschaft im Wien der Zwischenkriegszeit
Gestalterinnen hatten einen entscheidenden Anteil an der Entwicklung der Moderne im Wien der Zwischenkriegszeit. Die Publikation präsentiert neue Forschungen zu Designerinnen, Keramikerinnen, Modeschöpferinnen, Grafikerinnen, Gartenarchitektinnen, Fotografinnen, Kunsthistorikerinnen und Mäzeninnen. An ihrem Beispiel wird gezeigt, wie angestammte Rollenbilder in der Zwischenkriegszeit aufgebrochen wurden und welch eminente Bedeutung diese Frauen für die Wiener Moderne hatten. Sie setzten sich mit bestehenden Vorurteilen auseinander und schufen neue visuelle Sprachen, um erfolgreich Karriere zu machen. Gleichzeitig trugen sie zu einem kritischen Diskurs über die Emanzipation der Frau bei. Zu den Gestalterinnen der Wiener Moderne gehörten u.a. Emilie Flöge, Mathilde Flögl, Jacqueline Groag, Fanny Harlfinger-Zakucka, Yella Hertzka, Else Hofmann, Hilda Jesser, Maria Likarz, Madame d'Ora, Pauline Metternich-Sándor, Bertha Pappenheim, Marie Reidemeister-Neurath, Lisl Weil, Vally Wieselthier, Helene Wolf und Berta Zuckerkandl

De Gruyter Vom Konsum des Begehrens: Appropriation Art, Sex Wars und ein postmoderner Bilderstreit
In feministisch geprägten Kunstproduktionen der 1980er Jahre erfolgte in den USA eine intensive Auseinandersetzung mit Sexualitätsentwürfen und Geschlechterverhältnissen im Hinblick auf deren ökonomische Bedingungen. Susanne Huber untersucht das Motiv des Begehrens als Schnittstelle zwischen den kontroversen Debatten um Pornografie und der Kritik an Darstellungskonventionen in kommerziellen Massenmedien im Umfeld der Appropriation Art. Vor dem Hintergrund postmoderner Kulturtheorie und Konsumkritik verweisen die spezifischen Techniken der Aneignung in den Werken von Lutz Bacher, Sarah Charlesworth und Barbara Bloom auf komplexe Konstellationen hegemonialer Differenzkonstruktionen und gesellschaftlicher Wertzuschreibungen sowie die formalen Konflikte der Wiederholung.

De Gruyter Unsichtbare Malerei: Reflexion und Sentimentalität in Bildern der Düsseldorfer Malerschule
Painting in Düsseldorf at the time when Wilhelm Schadow was director of the art academy was of world rank. Not a few considered what was happening artistically in Düsseldorf to be as important, perhaps even more important, than what was happening in Berlin, in Munich, in Paris. This was not in spite of, but because of the pictorial strategy characteristic of the “Düsseldorf School of Painting” of translating poetry into painting, of making reflections and feelings — i.e. the invisible — the subject. The invis- ible, which only appears before our inner eye, does not make the paintings poorer. On the contrary, it makes them richer. The paintings of the Düsseldorf School of Painting attracted particular criticism for their depiction of the non-representable. What the invisible of painting can be, and how it manifested itself in the perception of contemporaries, is the subject of this book.

De Gruyter Portrait à la mode: Weibliche Figurenbilder der École de Paris zwischen Belle Époque und Années folles
École de Paris steht seit jeher für die internationale Pariser Kunstszene zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts, untrennbar verbunden mit auratischen Namen wie Picasso oder Matisse. Doch daneben wirkten in der École de Paris auch Porträtisten und Porträtistinnen, deren mondäne Damenporträts in der Pariser Gesellschaft sehr beliebt waren: U.a. Paul-César Helleu, Giovanni Boldini, Marie Laurencin, Kees van Dongen und Jacqueline Marval kreierten mit dem Portrait à la mode ein eigenes Genre, das – im Schatten der Avantgarde – kunsthistorisch bisher wenig Beachtung fand. Stets auf der Höhe der Zeit bieten die Portraits à la mode Anlass zu einer kritischen Betrachtung der Gesellschaft, der Mode und des sich wandelnden Frauenbildes während der Belle Époque, der Zwischenkriegszeit und der „Verrückten Zwanziger“.

De Gruyter Glaskunst am Bau und Intermedialität: Das Atelier Stäubli in St. Gallen
The leaded and cemented stained glass of the workshop of Heinrich Stäubli (1926-2016), St. Gallen, which is integrated into churches, restaurants, and schools, continues to shape the built environment of Eastern Switzerland today. The output of the workshop is characterized by relations among stained glass, murals, and graphic, textile, and funerary arts. This is the first analysis of the artworks and the estate from the perspective of intermediality and within the framework of modern art history. The study offers a systematic contextualization of Stäubli’s work within the history of stained-glass art in German-speaking countries, elucidating not only the operations of the artistic workshop but, more broadly, the artistic-social relevance of stained glass far beyond Switzerland in the 20th century.

De Gruyter Kältebilder: Ästhetik und Erkenntnis am Gefrierpunkt
Als Mittel der Konservierung ist Kälte seit alters her von fundamentaler Bedeutung für die menschliche Kultur, doch erst mit dem Industriezeitalter wurden Möglichkeiten künstlicher Kühlung ersonnen, die heute selbstverständlich sind. Mit ihr gingen auch neue Möglichkeiten der Erkenntnisgewinnung einher. Die gefrorene Bewegung wurde zur Metapher der verlangsamten Aufzeichnung. Ohne Kryotechnik gäbe es keine modernen Rechen- und Bildgebungsprozesse. Diesen Möglichkeiten eiskalter Beobachtung stehen Sichtbarkeitsverluste durch Frost oder Niederschlag gegenüber, so wie die künstliche Absenkung von Temperaturen gerade durch ihren Energieverbrauch den Klimawandel weiter anheizt. Die Technik der Kühlung erreicht in jeder Hinsicht neue Tiefst- und Höchstmarken - mit umfassenden Folgen für das Wissen und die Wahrnehmung. Das Cover der Bilderwelten wurde mit einer thermochromen Farbe gedruckt. Diese reagiert auf unterschiedliche Umgebungstemperaturen mit der Veränderung des Farbtons. Schauen Sie selbst!

De Gruyter Kunst an den Rändern: Wie aus Bildern und Objekten Kunst werden kann
Images are not born as art. With his ready-mades Marcel Duchamp embro-iled the art business in a debate about the inclusion and exclusion of every-day objects in ‘high’ art. Since then, it has been possible to cite Arthur Danto and talk of the „end of art“. In retros-pect it becomes clear that Duchamp’s expansion of what constitutes art resulted in an explosive increase of art objects and concepts of art, a trend still evident today. Moreover, images and objects from non-art areas with their own tradition provoke the art system by adapting art criteria. The contributions in this book address pro-vocations and interventions, the trans-fer or melding of image and object cultures and explore images, objects and actions in their cultural contexts to get to the bottom of the art system that is in a state of dissolution.

De Gruyter Britain and the Continent 1660‒1727: Political Crisis and Conflict Resolution in Mural Paintings at Windsor, Chelsea, Chatsworth, Hampton Court and Greenwich
This monograph examines the most prestigious political paintings created in Britain during the High Baroque age. It investigates a period characterized by numerous social, political, and religious crises, in the years between the restoration of the Stuart monarchy (1660) and the death of the first British monarch from the House of Hanover (1727). On the basis of hitherto unpublished documents, the book elucidates the creation and reception of nine major commissions that involved the court, private aristocratic patrons, and/or civic institutions. The ground-breaking new interpretations of these works focus on strategies of conflict resolution, the creation of shared cultural memories, processes of cultural translation, the performative context of the murals and the interaction of painted images and architectural spaces.

De Gruyter Oskar Kokoschka: Neue Einblicke und Perspektiven / New Insights and Perspectives
Oskar Kokoschka hat sich als „Oberwildling“ der Wiener Moderne, als Multitalent in Bild und Wort, als Schöpfer eines viel rezipierten Puppenfetischs und als prominenter, von den Nazis als „entartet" diffamierter Künstler und Antifaschist in den Kanon einer explizit widerständigen Moderne eingeschrieben – als Inbegriff des radikalen, politischen Künstlers. Kokoschka revisited: Die Publikation versammelt als Ergebnis einer internationalen Tagung am Oskar Kokoschka Zentrum der Universität für angewandte Kunst Wien aktuelle Forschungen aus Kunst- und Kulturwissenschaft, Zeitgeschichte, Literatur- und Theaterwissenschaft, Gender Studies und Biografieforschung. Auf Basis bislang unbekannter Quellenfunde beleuchtet sie Leben und Werk des faszinierenden Künstlers neu und hinterfragt kritisch seine wirkmächtigen Narrative.

De Gruyter China and the West: Reconsidering Chinese Reverse Glass Painting
With contributions from outstanding specialists in glass art and East Asian art history, this edited volume opens a cross-cultural dialogue on the hitherto little-studied medium of Chinese reverse glass painting. The first major survey of this form of East Asian art, the volume traces its long history, its local and global diffusion, and its artistic and technical characteristics. Manufactured for export to Europe and for local consumption within China, the fragile artworks studied in this volume constitute a paramount part of Chinese visual culture and attest to the intensive cultural and artistic exchange between China and the West. With contributions by Thierry Audric, Kee Il Choi Jr., Patrick Conner, Karina H. Corrigan, Elisabeth Eibner, Patricia F. Ferguson, Lihong Liu, William H. Ma, Alina Martimyanova, Christopher L.

De Gruyter Revisionen eines Schiffbruchs - Martin Kippenbergers Medusa
Martin Kippenberger (1953–1997) is considered one of the outstanding artists of the 1980s and 1990s. One of the artist’s greatest related bodies of work, Medusa, was produced one year before his death. In over 80 works he addresses Theodore Géricault’s narrative painting The Raft of the Medusa (1819). In this critical, historical analysis the body of work is for the first time set within the context of the entire oeuvre, its evolution is extensively traced and Kippenberger's reception of Géricault's salon painting is examined in detail. Medusa illustrates much more complex dimensions than simply the metaphorization of the artist’s personal situation. Kippenberger translates Géricault's painting into the present day and in doing so reviews a shipwreck.

De Gruyter Al Waqf: Philanthropy, Endowments and Sustainable Social Development in Egypt
This book explores how philanthropy is perceived and practiced in a predominantly Muslim society. It is the first academic quantification of philanthropic giving and volunteering using a representative sample of the Egyptian population, providing the reader with a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the state of philanthropy in Egypt. The book discusses traditional and religious philanthropic mechanisms and provides a thorough explanation of the waqf system, how it is perceived today, and how it could support innovation. Furthermore, as a solid direct product of the research embodied in the creation of a community foundation, it discusses reviving and modernizing the concept of waqf, thus elaborating an example of how academic studies may be employed to create proto-types for learning and calculated action.

De Gruyter La redécouverte de la couleur
The catalogue is dedicated to diverse aspects of the rediscovery of color in the glass art of the nineteenth and twentieth century. The influential color theories of Isaac Newton, Michel Eugène Chevreul, Owen Jones, or Johannes Itten, which created the theoretical basis, are addressed as well as methods for producing stained glass developed by artists such as Clement Heaton, Charles Wasem, or Marcel Poncet, and Islamic art, which served as a source of inspiration. The examination of color and the expansion of the existing color palette in glass art are then presented based on works created within the context of the opalescent era in American stained glass, the Bauhaus, and the revival of Swiss stained glass by the St-Luc group of artists.

De Gruyter The Transnational in Literary Studies: Potential and Limitations of a Concept
This volume clarifies the meanings and applications of the concept of the transnational and identifies areas in which the concept can be particularly useful. The division of the volume into three parts reflects areas which seem particularly amenable to analysis through a transnational lens. The chapters in Part 1 present case studies in which the concept replaces or complements traditionally dominant concepts in literary studies. These chapters demonstrate, for example, why some dramatic texts and performances can better be described as transnational than as postcolonial, and how the transnational underlies and complements concepts such as world literature. Part 2 assesses the advantages and limitations of writing literary history with a transnational focus. These chapters illustrate how such a perspective loosens the epistemic stranglehold of national historiographies, but they also argue that the transnational and national agendas of literary historiography are frequently entangled. The chapters in Part 3 identify transnational genres such as the transnational historical novel, transnational migrant fiction and translinguistic theatre, and analyse the specific poetics and politics of these genres.

De Gruyter Artist Complex: Images of Artists in Twentieth-Century Photography
With the Jungian term of the complex the present volume inquires about the making of the artistic persona in twentieth-century photography. The articles examine photographic (self-)portraits, the dynamics between self-statements of artists and photographers, the interrelations of photography, of painting and of performance art and investigate their origins in the history of ideas. The volume traces a portrait of photography as a metascience; as preparatory work, a source of inspiration and an alternate medium in which artists could explore different subjects. With essays by Ulrike Blumenthal, Till Cremer, Victoria Fleury, Jadwiga Kamola, Weronika Kobylińska-Bunsch, Nadja Köffler, Constance Krüger, Wilma Scheschonk, Gerd Zillner.

De Gruyter Herrscherbild und Fürstenspiegel: Eine ikonische Politologie
Das Herrscherbild des Mittelalters ist nicht bloß Quelle politischer Geschichte, es zählt zu ihren Akteuren. Dies aufzuzeigen, werden Hauptwerke der politischen Bildgeschichte wie z. B. das Frontispiz des Aachener Evangeliars, Lorenzettis Fresken oder die Bildproduktion Maximilians I. Fürstenspiegeln ihrer Zeit gegenübergestellt. Um auf ihre Adressaten einzuwirken, argumentieren diese Texte mittels des Bildes und bezeugen so das Vermögen medialer Herrscherbilder zur politischen Teilhabe. Damit erweitert die Studie ein allgemeines Verständnis von Bildpolitik, das von einer unangefochtenen Totalität von Macht ausgeht, die der Moderne angehört, dem Mittelalter und seinen Bildern aber fremd war. Die diesen Bildern eigene Dialektik erweist sich als eine genuine „Politologie des Bildes“.

De Gruyter Data Loam: Sometimes Hard, Usually Soft. The Future of Knowledge Systems
As a reaction to the dominant effect and interpretive authority of the digital, Data Loam combines radical approaches based on positions taken in the international practice of contemporary art. Previously: insistence on indexicality and the instrumental reduction of knowledge. Instead: a new metric that requires play, curiosity, experiment, and risk. As an urgent response to the continually growing flood of information that libraries, search engines, and cultural institutions are exposed to, the authors develop approaches that suggest and permit sensual logic, causal permeability, and new forms of man–machine interaction. Data Loam focuses on the future of knowledge systems in texts about artificial intelligence, cybernetics, and cryptoeconomics – as a means of counteracting end-of-the-world fears.

De Gruyter Nonlinear Dynamics
Many nonlinear systems around us can generate a very complex and counter-intuitive dynamics that contrasts with their simplicity, but their understanding requires concepts that are outside the basic training of most science students. This textbook, which is the fruit of graduate courses that the authors have taught at their respective universities, provides a richly illustrated introduction to nonlinear dynamical systems and chaos and a solid foundation for this fascinating subject. It will satisfy those who want discover this field, including at the undergraduate level, but also those who need a compact and consistent overview, gathering the concepts essential to nonlinear scientists.The first and second chapters describe the essential concepts needed to describe nonlinear dynamical systems as well as their stability. The third chapter introduces the concept of bifurcation, where the qualitative dynamical behavior of a system changes. The fourth chapter deals with oscillations, from their birth to their destabilization, and how they respond to external driving. The fifth and sixth chapters discuss complex behaviors that only occur in state spaces of dimension three and higher: quasi-periodicity and chaos, from their general properties to quantitative methods of characterization. All chapters are supplemented by exercises ranging from direct applications of the notions introduced in the corresponding chapter to elaborate problems involving concepts from different chapters, as well as numerical explorations.

De Gruyter Plastics in the Circular Economy
We cannot imagine a world without plastics. Plastic products make our daily life safe, healthy and convenient. Besides all the benefits, the current plastics economy gives rise to environmental concerns with respect to fossil oil depletion and plastic waste accumulation. In a circular economy, however, plastics can be redesigned for reusability and recyclability. This book makes the topic of sustainable plastics approachable for students and career starters alike, describing the nature and chemistry of (bio)polymers as well as how to create a closed loop of plastic materials.

De Gruyter Marginale Zeichentechniken: Pause, Abklatsch, Cut&Paste als ästhetische Strategien in der Vormoderne
Motorisch-mechanische Zeichentechniken wie Pause, Abklatsch und Cut&Paste gehören zu den elementaren Werkstattpraktiken der Vormoderne. Sie wurden ebenso in der Ausbildung wie von renommierten Künstler:innen wie Leonardo, Dürer, Michelangelo und Rubens eingesetzt, um Entwürfe zu verändern, den Motivvorrat zu erweitern und neue Kunstwerke herzustellen. In der damaligen Kunsttheorie waren sie jedoch weitgehend unbedacht oder gar herabgesetzt. Nur wenige Positionen der Wertschätzung bis hin zur entschiedenen Nobilitierung von Abklatschen im 18. Jahrhundert sind zu verzeichnen. Die Diskrepanz zwischen der Bedeutung der Zeichentechniken in der Praxis und ihrer Thematisierung in der Kunsttheorie blieb lange unbeachtet. Der vorliegende Band unternimmt in dieser Hinsicht eine unverzichtbare Neuperspektivierung der Zeichnungsforschung und bindet dabei transdisziplinäre Kontexte wie kunsttechnologische und philosophische Gesichtspunkte ein.

De Gruyter Oswald Wiener's Theory of Thought: Conversations and Essays on Fundamental Issues in Cognitive Science
As a versatile and creative thinker, Oswald Wiener (1935—2021) developed from an artist into a researcher out of sheer necessity. At the end of his life he emphasized: ”I do not aim at a synthesis of introspection and automata theory but rather at contrasting them. Which relationships identified in introspection can — in a fairly satisfactory way — be understood as realizations of relationships within a formal system, e.g., the formal system of automata theory. Or the other way around: How well does automata theory as a model (i.e., the computer as mental metaphor, 'Physical Symbol Systems,' today's Artificial Intelligence ...) capture essential features of human thought? What does 'in a fairly satisfactory way' mean in this context? What, and how strongly, does the formal system abstract from natural processes?“ In this book, three conversations with Wiener about the development of his theory and four essays introduce and elaborate on this new ap proach to the theory of thought, which has previously received too little attention in academic discourse. A pivotal role is played by Wiener's last major essay “Cybernetics and Ghosts.” “The collected essays in this book orbit around the mind of Oswald Wiener, becoming visible in his poignant text Cybernetics and Ghosts. The subtitle, in the no-man's-land between science and art adds an unnecessary caveat to Oswald Wiener's thoughts, because his thinking operates in a well-developed domain, just one that sadly resides in a parallel universe, one in which computer scientists are philosophers of mind, cybernetics did not die, and psychology did not end after Piaget. Artistic research in Wiener’s (1935–2021) œuvre Oswald Wiener’s approach to cognitive psychology On the link between informatics and self-observation Also available in German Oswald Wieners Theorie des Denkens 978-3-11-065960-3 Wiener's perspective becomes very timely when it comes to the current, dismal discourse about Artificial Intelligence, which is largely taking place between philosophically illiterate engineers and scientifically illiterate humanities scholars. Where the engineers present their discoveries of practically useful algorithms and the scholars their practically useful political opinions, Wiener remains a true intellectual, sifting through the phenomenology of AI systems in an attempt to understand its significance for the unanswered questions of mind, meaning and the construction of reality.” Joscha Bach, Cognitive Scientist / AI Strategist at Liquid AI / Research Fellow at Thistledown Foundation, San Francisco Bay Area

De Gruyter Camouflage: Landschaftslektüren zwischen Theater, Kunst und Krieg 1914-1945
Kunst im Krieg? Das Buch zeigt anhand der Geschichte der Camouflage, wie in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts überraschende neue Formen der Zusammenarbeit zum Zweck der Tarnung entstanden. Künstler*innen betonten ihre Expertise in Illusionsgestaltung und entwickelten fleckige Tarnmuster, kulissenartige Attrappen, nächtliche Lichtinstallationen und unterrichteten auch Camouflage. Am Beispiel des Londoner Salonmalers Solomon J. Solomon und des Chicagoer New Bauhaus (Leitung: László Moholy-Nagy) untersucht die Studie das Zusammenspiel von Kunst und Krieg. Dabei geht es nicht nur um eine Neuverhandlung der gesellschaftlichen Rolle von Kunst, sondern auch um einen neuen Blick auf Landschaften aus der Luftperspektive und um die verunsichernde Frage, wie sich die Wahrnehmung täuschen und manipulieren lässt.

The book presents the entire graphic works of the artist Jan Svenungsson, who has been responsible Graphics and Printmaking at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna since 2011, accompanied by a text that seamlessly combines practical information, stories and speculations in an entertaining way. His overarching objective is to critically discuss the meaning of graphic prints in contemporary art, and more specifically: to illuminate the role of single-handedly "making" them – at a time when the conditions for exercising creativity are undergoing rapid change: What are the implications of the tools the artist selects? What does authenticity mean in today’s art? How does the role of the artist change when he makes himself dependent on artificial intelligence?

Im Hinblick auf eine Neudefinition des Museums aktualisiert Nora Sternfeld Ansätze aus Museologie, Vermittlung und Erinnerungskultur. So verfolgen die Texte dieses Bandes Strategien, die das Archiv herausfordern, Museumsraum aneignen, alternatives Wissen produzieren und Bildung neu denken. Das Museum wird dabei zu einem Versammlungsraum, der es erlaubt, sich damit auseinanderzusetzen, was geschehen ist, darüber zu verhandeln, was dies für die Gegenwart bedeutet und wie sich eine Zukunft imaginieren lässt, die mehr ist, als bloß die Verlängerung der Gegenwart.
