Camille HenrotMother Tongue

Format: Hardback

Condition: New — £26.92
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

In den letzten 20 Jahren hat Camille Henrot eine von der Kritik gefeierte Praxis entwickelt, die sich zwischen Zeichnung, Malerei, Skulptur, Installation und Film bewegt. Mother Tongue ist die erste Publikation der Künstlerin, die sich ausschließlich auf Malerei und Zeichnung konzentriert und über 200 Werke aus den zwischen 2018 und 2022 entstandenen Serien System of Attachment, Wet Job und Soon vereint. Dieses jüngste Werk thematisiert die ambivalente Natur der Fürsorge und die Spannung zwischen dem gleichzeitigen Bedürfnis nach Bindung und Selbstbehauptung, das im Säuglingsalter beginnt und sich durch das ganze Leben zieht. Individuelle, intime Auseinandersetzungen führen dabei immer auch zu umfassenden Fragestellungen, wie den gesellschaftlichen Erwartungshaltungen an Mutterschaft und der Repräsentation des weiblichen Körpers. Der reich bebilderte Katalog wird begleitet von Texten von Emily Labarge, Legacy Russell, Marcus Steinweg, Hélene Cixous, Seamus Kealy und einem Gespräch zwischen Camille Henrot und der Kuratorin Julika Bosch.
