Konzeptkunst – Eines von 40 Exemplaren. - Hg. Edition Schellmann, München/New York. anlässlich der 51. Biennalie Venedig, 2005. - Die vorliegende Edition dokumentiert Bonvicinis gleichnamige Arbeit auf der 51. Biennale Venedig 2005: ein Kubus aus weißen Ytong-Steinen in den Maßen einer Skulptur Sol LeWitts, dessen Oberfläche während der Eröffnungstage von Bauarbeitern nach dem Vorbild von Caspar David Friedrichs Das Eismeer abgetragen wurde, ohne dass sie von der Künstlerin genaue Angaben zum Vorgehen erhalten hatten. Der Titel benennt die Kollision, die das Werk zum Ausdruck bringt: Minimalismus trifft Romantik, konzeptuelle Strenge trifft malerische Geste, und der formale Kubus wird durch physische Arbeit in Trümmer verwandelt. Bonvicinis Werk gilt als paradigmatisch für eine Künstlergeneration, die Raum und Architektur als Material begreift, um Diskurse über Macht und Politik zu verhandeln.

Conceptual Art – Conceptual Art. - Digital pigment print on semi-transparent foil. Signed and numbered. - Overall, very good. Excellent, nuanced printing of the full-page composition. - One of 40 copies. - Published by Edition Schellmann, Munich/New York. On the occasion of the 51st Venice Biennale, 2005. - This edition documents Bonvicini's work of the same name at the 51st Venice Biennale 2005: a cube made of white Ytong blocks, the dimensions of a Sol LeWitt sculpture, whose surface was chiselled away by construction workers during the opening days, modelled on Caspar David Friedrich's The Ice Sea, without the artist having provided them with precise instructions on how to proceed. The title refers to the collision expressed by the work: minimalism meets Romanticism, conceptual rigour meets painterly gesture, and the formal cube is transformed into rubble through physical labour. Bonvicini's work is regarded as paradigmatic for a generation of artists who conceive of space and architecture as material for negotiating discourses on power and politics.
