Description: Le Parc Lumi re focuses on a single, key aspect of Julio Le Parc's work--his preoccupation with changing light. Le Parc, born in 1928 in Mendoza, Argentina, is one of the world's best-known kinetic artists. By 1958 he had moved to Paris and begun creating his first light works and mobiles, most of which were made in the 1960s, while he and other young artists, including Fran ois Morellet, were founding and developing GRAV (Groupe de Recherche d'Art Visuel). This large-format publication contains a comprehensive selection of those works that use both light and movement. It also includes an essay from Sebastin LApez and an interview with the artist that is full of insights into his world and his work.

Description: The Hours--the title alludes to a work by Argentine author and philosopher Jorge Luis Borges--offers a first representative selection of works from the Daros-Latinamerica Collection, the most extensive cache of contemporary Latin American art in Europe, and one of the largest in the world. The collection is weighted toward work created in the past 20 years, and it covers a wide range of media, from installations and objects to videos, paintings, drawings, artists' books and performances. Taken together, the works profiled here offer a complex picture of a vast cultural region, full of widely differing faces, identities and interests. Despite the presence of some familiar names, among them Fabian Marcaccio, Guillermo Kuitca, Alfredo Jaar and Vik Muniz, the vibrant art scene documented here remains largely unexplored by North American and European viewers. Short, succinct texts guide the reader on this journey of discovery.
