Gillian Laub: Family Matters
Aperture
2021

Gillian Laub’s photographs of her family from the past twenty years, now collected in one volume, explore the ways society’s biggest questions are revealed in our most intimate relationships. Family Matters zeroes in on the artist’s family as an example of the way Donald Trump’s knack for sowing discord and division has impacted communities, individuals, and households across the country. As Laub explains, “I began to unpack my relationship to my relatives—which turned out to be much more indicative of my relationship to the outside world than I had ever thought, and the key to exploring questions I had about the effects of wealth, vanity, childhood, aging, fragility, political conflict, religious traditions, and mortality.” These issues became tangible in 2016, when Laub and her parents found themselves on opposing sides of the most divisive presidential election in recent US history; and further exacerbated in the lead-up to the 2020 election, in the wake of a global pandemic and protests in support of Black Lives Matter. Family Matters reveals Laub’s willingness to confront ideas of privilege and unity, and to expose the fault lines and vulnerabilities of her relatives and herself. Ultimately, Family Matters celebrates the resiliency and power of family—including the family we choose—in the face of divisive rhetoric. In doing so, it holds up a highly personalized mirror to the social and political divides in the United States today.

The singular paintings of British artist Gillian Carnegie (b.1971) have been exhibited and discussed extensively for nearly two decades but this is the first substantial publication on her work.Carnegie’s work is explicitly analytical, systematic yet oblique in its reexamination of traditional painting genres such as still life, landscape, portraits, and the nude – all of them 'genres without a subject', as they have sometimes been called. Yet she makes clear that her impulse to resuscitate these categories is not simply an exercise in formalism, historicism, academic reverence, postmodern pastiche, or nostalgia. And far from being without a subject, far from having no story to tell, Carnegie’s paintings insistently suggest that there is a subject, that there is a story, but that the painting exists not to communicate it but to conceal it, to hold it incommunicado. In contemporary painting Gillian Carnegie's work stands apart, quietly, calmly and insistently uncanny, with an emotional tenor unlike anything else in art today.

This monograph provides an overview of the work of Gillian Wearing, one of the UK’s most significant Conceptual artists, from the iconic Signs that Say What You Want Them to Say and Not Signs that Say What Someone Else Wants You to Say (1992–93) – a series of photographic portraits of people holding up signs with written personal confessions or thoughts – to her 2010 video Bully, in which the roles of victims and perpetrators, actors and directors, are blurred. Also included are new photographic works, two portraits from her ongoing series of iconic photographers, and still lifes of flowers that are inspired by the rich symbolism of seventeenth-century Dutch painting. The publication accompanied a major international survey of the artist’s work at Whitechapel Gallery, London; K20 Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf; and Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, in 2012–13. It features 100 full-colour illustrations and never-before-published archival material, accompanied by new texts by the exhibition’s curators Daniel F. Herrmann, Doris Krystof and Bernhart Schwenk.

Makes the case for the rediscovery of British philosopher Gillian Rose’s unique but neglected voice Kate Schick explains the core themes of Gillian Rose's work. She engages with the work of Benjamin, Honig, Zizek and Butler and locates Rose's ideas within central debates in contemporary social theory: trauma and memory, exclusion and difference, tragedy and messianic utopia. She shows how Rose’s speculative perspective brings a different gaze to bear on debates, avoiding well-worn liberal, critical theoretic and post-structural positions. Gillian Rose draws on idiosyncratic readings of thinkers such as Hegel, Adorno and Kierkegaard to underpin her philosophy, refusing to privilege the particular over the universal. While of the left, she is sharply critical of much left-wing thought, insisting that it shirks the work of coming to know and taking political risk in the hope that we might find a ‘good enough justice’.

Gillian White, born 1939 in Orpington, Kent, has gained wide recognition for her work of monumental steel sculptures, the majority of them located in public spaces in Switzerland. White was educated first as a dancer at the Elmhurst School for Dance 1949-55 and later as a visual artist at the St Martin School of Arts (1956-60) and the Central School of Arts and Crafts (1959) in London, and at summer courses with Oskar Kokoschka in Salzburg and at the Ecole Nationale des Beaux Arts in Paris. She has been living and working in Switzerland since 1972. Her oeuvre consist mainly of large-size sculptures in steel, but also of smaller works in various materials, murals and mosaics. Although White's contribution to contemporary sculpture is strong and highly individual, this rich oeuvre has hardly been documented so far. "Gillian White. Dance in Steel" fills this gap and presents her work in a large number of images, mostly in colour. The focus is on her monumental sculptures in public spaces and the art-in-architecture works, but her paintings and the small sculptures, playful and precisely composed, are shown as well. Essays by expert authors and personal texts by writers and artist friends of White complement the images.

As an event planner, Gillian Romano's an expert at rolling with the punches and solving unexpected problems. But her flight getting hijacked while returning from a job is definitely out of her skill set. Passengers are being murdered, and when she's chosen by the terrorists to be their mouthpiece, even more innocent lives rest on Gillian's shoulders. Only the calm, reassuring voice on the other end of the line keeps her sane, forging a bond with a stranger she's never seen but trusts with her life. Walker "Trigger" Nelson and his Delta Force team have spent years training for close-quarter hostage rescue. When they get called to South America to attempt to save an airplane full of hostages, he doesn't expect to meet a woman who rocks his world in the middle of the op. Gillian's cool head and bravery in the face of certain terror--and possible death--blows him away. Any outcome that doesn't include Gillian leaving that plane alive and well is not an option. After their safe return to Texas, both Trigger and Gillian are excited to find out if their instant chemistry can survive the real world. Neither realizing that someone isn't happy with the outcome of the hijacking, and is watching, waiting, for a second chance to strike. ** Shielding Gillian is the 1st book in the Delta Team Two Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
