Editorial : "Though its title refers to your average set of cards, Shuffle is filled with photographic images taken from everyday life and decorated with a series of musical notes. Like John Cage's chance compositions, Marclay's set of 75 cards will entertain its owner with any number of musical revelations." -- Laura Allsop & Ruth Lewy --ArtReview
"Shuffle preserves a feeling of immediacy, of Marclay stumbling upon these fragments of music lurking everywhere in the world." -- Martha Schwendener --BookForum
"The sole rule of the game: Shuffle the deck and draw cards to create your own improv musical score. The best part? With an endless number of combinations and sequences, no two ditties will be alike." --WWD Scoop
"Marclay's new photography book, 'Shuffle,' packaged as an oversize deck of cards, is an invitation to play along with his view of aural and visual potentialities. Literally." -- Lynne Heffly --Los Angeles Times
Christian Marclay is known for using a range of media--video, sculpture, installation and performance--in his artwork to address the ways that music and sound impact our experience of the world. While he frequently uses photograms and found images in his work, most people don't realize the extent to which photography has become a tool of choice for this subtle but influential artist. For this project, a limited-edition boxed card set, Shuffle, Marclay photographed the appearance of musical notation in his everyday wanderings--finding examples on shop awnings, chocolate tins, T-shirts, underwear and other unexpected places. This body of work reveals Marclay to be an obsessive photographic note-taker with a flair for uncovering musical "clues" hidden in the landscape and adorning our world--musical notes just waiting to be called into action. Each of the 75 images collected here is presented on an oversized playing card, and the entire deck is enclosed in a distinctive package. Pa
The author succinctly dismantles the mainsteam kudos of globalization without remorse. This book may also answer one of the questions I brought with me from my former home in New Mexico: Where are the builders of the mounds now, and why have so few of their works been preserved? Reading lists and references will help me extend my understanding.. Hamilton explains the events of Paul's Ministry so well. And, of course, there is the internal use, often from a veggie cap. Caveat Emptor, friends.
Anyway, it's a lovely set of photographs on card stock of music staff and notation-based public design applications in many contexts.. A good way to show kids evolutionary stories, too. The alpha couple is still settling into mated life and the events that take place in this book, whether big or small, reinforces their relationship. There were choices made by a lead character that left me totally irritated by her seemingly irrational behaviour all through book, only to be revealed at the
