In this body of work, Fiona Tan focuses on the image and the role of women as portrayed in these photographs, drawing attention to the ideal as opposed to the reality of these formative decades in postwar Germany.Published on occasion of the exhibition, Fiona Tan: GAAF at Museum Ludwig, Cologne (4 May - 11 August 2019).Co-published with Museum Ludwig.English and German text.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52762463830289,"sku":"NIN9783960985990","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783960985990.jpg?v=1763600631"},{"product_id":"fiona-tan-mountains-and-molehills-book-fiona-tan-9789462087385","title":"Fiona Tan - Mountains and Molehills","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThemes of memory and documentation in recent works by the acclaimed Dutch artist\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis publication documents recent works by Dutch multimedia artist Fiona Tan (born 1966)-- \u003ci\u003eGray Glass\u003c\/i\u003e (2020), \u003ci\u003eInventory\u003c\/i\u003e (2012) and \u003ci\u003eFootsteps\u003c\/i\u003e (2022)--as well as the text of the works \u003ci\u003eBrendan's Isle\u003c\/i\u003e (2010) and \u003ci\u003eIsland\u003c\/i\u003e (2008).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52763769733393,"sku":"NIN9789462087385","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9789462087385.jpg?v=1763607358"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-de\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-fiona-tan.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
