The present catalogue is a retrospective with a difference. Taking the work of two contemporary American artists, Christopher Wool and Sharon Lockhart, it looks back at the work of their predecessors as painters and filmmakers from earlier generations. The key figure of these reflections is Andy Warhol, who both revolutionized painting as a medium and made a major contribution to the development of film. His work spans both Barnett Newman's access to the materiality of pictures and the artistic exploitation of media images and their apparent reality with which Bruce Conner achieved such brilliant effects. The publication contains an extensive, complex panorama of art-historical references combined with contemporary historical and political analyses. Affinities and antitheses within the interrelationships, substance and formal idioms of the five artists involved are explored in a variety of ways. Along with illustrations of the paintings exhibited and films screened, the catalogue thus contains articles by Giuliana Bruno, Achim Hochdörfer, Wolfram Pichler, Christian Höller, Hans Dieter Hubert, Peter Pakesch, Ferdinand Schmatz, Marc Siegel and Ian White.

The first large-scale exhibition exploring contemporary abstract painting. In a major exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, director Jeffrey Deitch considers the reemergence of abstract painting among a broad range of artists whose work is as diverse conceptually as it is aesthetically. Looking back to Andy Warhol’s seminal Shadow, Oxidation, and Rorschach paintings as among the many touchstones that underwrite the contemporary impulse to abstraction, the show features artists such as Julie Mehretu, whose large-scale works densely layer maplike markings; Josh Smith, whose lush canvases often explore a single theme repeatedly, such as his signature; and Tauba Auerbach, whose highly formal explorations of materials challenge conventional modes of perception. Additional artists include Rudolf Stingel, Christopher Wool, Glenn Ligon, Urs Fischer, Mark Bradford, Wade Guyton, Kelley Walker, Seth Price, Kerstin Brätsch and Adele Röder, and Sterling Ruby. The exhibition catalogue features a roundtable discussion between Jeffrey Deitch, art historian Johanna Burton, and curators James Meyer and Scott Rothkopf.
