<p>This monograph surveys the diverse oeuvre of the ever-popular German artist Imi Knoebel, whose adventures in the elementary functions of form and color seem more relevant than ever. Opening up new perspectives on selected phases of Knoebel's career, and tackling many lesser-known explorations alongside his classic geometric/minimalistic fiberboard paintings, it examines, in chronological order, the artist's time at the Darmstadt Werkkunstschule and the Düsseldorf Art Academy, where he studied with Joseph Beuys, and where he met one of the artists with whom he would become most closely associated, Blinky Palermo. Also addressed here is Knoebel's relationship to American Minimalism, and his early explorations of serial light photography and printmaking. This volume focuses on these early activities and recent paintings from the 1990s to 2009.</p>

A rapidly expanding city with millions of inhabitants, Tangiers is rich in tensions between east and west, and its location in the Straits of Gibraltar only heightens its ambiguous status. Yto Barrada (born 1971) speculates on the political and cultural precariousness of her adopted city in films, photographs and installations.

<p>Imran Qureshi (born 1972) is one of the most visible and popular representatives of Pakistan’s contemporary art scene. Schooled in the demanding and precise techniques of miniature painting, he employs symbolism and ornamentation from the Mogul tradition that blossomed in the north of the Indian subcontinent during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In his own idiosyncratic way, Qureshi combines these traditional motifs and techniques with conceptualism and abstract painting, and keen observations of current-day Pakistan are in evidence throughout this young painter’s work. His images convey reflections on the relationship between the West and the Muslim world and the region’s multitude of issues around religion, terrorism and military policy. Honored by Deutsche Bank with its annual Artist of the Year award, Qureshi will realize an installation on the roof terrace of The Metropolitan Museum in New York in the summer of 2013.</p>
