Kelley Walker
Paula Cooper Gallery 2014 ISBN 9780975392164 Acqn 24475
Pb 22x25cm 116pp 233col ills 44.50
This comprehensive catalogue was published on the occasion of New Yorkbased artist Kelley
Walker's (born 1969) solo exhibition at the Paula Cooper Gallery in 2014. The catalogue begins
with an essay by noted art historian Robert Hobbs, which examines the technical and conceptual
scope of Walker's art. Hobbs finds parallels between Walker's work and that of Robert
Rauschenberg and Symbolist poet Stphane Mallarm. The publication also includes 233 superb
full-colour reproductions which highlight the sharp digital imagery of Walker's multi-panel works,
the layered polychrome hues of his silkscreens and the complex spatial play at work in his
sculpture. Ten fold-out spreads spanning 40 pages give the reader a sense of the expansive
dimensions of his multi-panel silkscreen pieces, the first of which is comprised of 196 parts.

Rob Churm creates drawings, collages and prints which take their inspiration from underground
comics and zines and from artists like Giovanni Battista Piranesi and William Blake. Raydale
Dower will install sound and sculptural works that play with duration, volume and void. Tony
Swain paints directly onto printed newspaper pages to create his works. All three have worked
with contemporary art and music in Scotland since the 90s. Rob Churm, Raydale Dower and
Tony Swain have previously worked together on an exhibition entitled Le Drapeau Noir as part of
the 2010 Glasgow International Festival. This exhibition explored avant-garde mythology, Dada,
caf culture anarchic history and underground music in a temporary artist caf. For Continue
Without Losing Consciousness we have worked with the artists to develop their original concept
into new projects for the DCA Galleries. The exhibition will include prints, paintings, sculpture and
sound works.

Stan Douglas
Fruitmarket Gallery 2014 ISBN 9781908612311 Acqn 24423
Hb 17x23cm 160pp 80ills 30col 17.95
Stan Douglas came to international prominence in the mid-1990s when his film installation Der
Sandmann was one of the highlights of Documenta X in 1997. Born in 1960, Vancouver, Canada,
Douglas is known for films, photographs and installations which use new and outdated
technologies, the tropes of cinema, TV and photography, the conventions of various Hollywood
genres, and classic literary texts to examine the intersection of history and memory in evocative,
mesmerising artworks.
The exhibition includes the video installation Vido, a reimagining of both Orson Welless film The
Trial (itself based on Kafkas novel of the same name) and Becketts film Film; photographs from
Midcentury Studio, a recent series of photographs taken by Douglas posing as a fictional North
American post-war press photographer; Corrupt Files, a sequence of large, beautiful, abstract
images; and Hogans Alley a companion piece to The Second Hotel Vancouver.
Together, these works provide both a rich introduction to and a reminder of practice of Stan
Douglas whose investigations into mistaken identity and unstable memory, reconstruction,
reinvention and the long shadows the past cast into the present, make him one of the most
interesting and important artists of our time.
