Tobias Madison: NO; NO; H E P

Más información sobre el libro

Tobias Madison (*1985, Switzerland) is part of a generation of young artists who embrace cooperative strategies in their artistic processes. His diverse roles span various media, including sculpture, video, computer-generated painting, audio, text, photography, and scanned images, all characterized by a process-driven approach filled with references to found symbols. This publication reflects a 2-phase exhibition at Kunsthalle Zürich, showcasing Madison's belief that exhibitions transcend mere spatial limitations, allowing for temporal and physical expansion. The presentation occurred at multiple locations in Zurich, including the artist-run AP News and Longstreet Bar, linked by a series of events. The gallery's newsletter served as an ephemeral publication, featuring the artist's text alongside other content, now included in the book. Additionally, it deconstructs a poster series by Mathis Altman (*1987) that promoted club nights during the exhibition. This work is the first monograph dedicated to Madison and is part of the Kunsthalle Zürich series. It features a newly commissioned text by John Beeson and conversations with Beatrix Ruf and Bruce Hainley, providing deeper insights into the artist's work and concepts.
