| Summary: | Search Engine is a book project that situates Berlin-based artist Antonia Hirsch's conceptual practice on par with her image and object making. The publication's title and its central feature, a classic book index, stake the gamut of the artist's enterprise: mobilizing contemporary tools, narratives, and epistemic systems, she transforms raw information and raw material into investigations of how we situate ourselves socially, politically, and economically. The publication comprises an extensive image section (212 illustrations), texts by Henriette Huldisch (chief curator at the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis) and Katharina Rein (art historian and media scholar, University of Potsdam), a conversation between Elena Filipovic (director, Kunstmuseum Basel) and Antonia Hirsch, and an introduction and glossary by the artist. |
