Der junge Avantgarde-Künstler Klauke erkannte schon Anfang der siebziger Jahre die Pionierrolle, die die damals noch nicht als Kunstform anerkannte Fotografie in der Kunst zu spielen vermochte. Von Anfang an stellte Klauke den eigenen Körper in den Mittelpunkt seiner Arbeit, wobei er mit seinen spektakulären Selbstinszenierungen und seinen die Geschlechterrollen befragenden Performances Mitte der siebziger Jahre innerhalb der so genannten Body Art international Maßstäbe setzen sollte. Klaukes Teilnahme 1980 an der Biennale in Venedig wie seine Schlüsselwerke - die 1981 entstandene großformatige Fotoserie »Formalisierung der Langeweile« und der 1987 auf der documenta 8 gezeigte Zyklus »Prosecuritas« - zeugen gleichermaßen für die innovative Kraft wie den Erfolg Klaukes, der einen nachhaltigen Einfluss auf die jüngere Künstlergeneration ausgeübt hat. Die Publikation zeigt in einem Umfang von annähernd 1000 Abbildungen eine repräsentative Auswahl von Werken aus allen Schaffensperioden des Künstlers von 1970 bis heute. Zum Künstler: Jürgen Klauke *1943 Kliding (bei Cochem). 1964-1970 Studium der freien Grafik an der Fachhochschule für Kunst und Design, Köln. 1977 und 1987 Teilnahme an der documenta 6 und 8 in Kassel. Seit 1993 Professor an der Medienhochschule in Köln. Ausstellungen: Kunst- und Ausstellungshalle der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, Bonn 23.3.-8.7.2001 · Staatliches Russisches Museum, St. Petersburg 23.8.-11.11.2001 · Hamburger Kunsthalle 24.4.- 4.8.2002

A Poetic Parable of Silence and Resistance
Format: Paperback
Ilya Kaminsky's Deaf Republic is a haunting narrative of political turmoil and collective silence, where a community's deafness becomes a powerful act of defiance. Through lyrical verse, Kaminsky weaves a tale of love, loss, and resistance, capturing the profound consequences of political violence on ordinary lives. This collection is a poignant testament to the resilience of the human spirit amidst oppression and serves as a stark reminder of our moral responsibilities in troubled times.

One of the most original and moving books of poems I've ever read
Format: Paperback
Ilya Kaminsky is practically a legend, at this point, and deservedly so. This is his second book of poems, and proves well worth the wait. The individual poems are beautiful and strange; together, they comprise a kind of allegory for our times, and manage to be both somehow light-of-heart, somehow luminous, and also seriously profound. I would recommend this book even to those who don't usually read poetry, because it's beyond poetry, truly.

Beautifully written and good quality book
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I received the book earlier than the estimated date. I love this poem collection of Ilya Kaminsky. Although it describes the social unrest in an unknown place (and unfamiliar to me), his poems are beautifully written with strong images and music. THe paper quality and the book are so new and lovely. I couldn't think that it is used (as it stated).

Life: A challenge in many ways in all cultures
Format: Kindle
I heard Ilya Kaminsky read his poems at Chautauqua this past summer. Over powering and dynamic to hear his voice speak his words... about his life experiences need to be remembered. A must read and if possible with the audio.

A brilliant poetic narrative whose lines leap off the pages which turn themselves.
Format: Paperback
When you get to the end, you wonder how Kaminsky worked his wondrous magic, how it's possible to think and write poetry like that. The poem is a story about Vasenka, a mythical town somewhere in the Ukraine, occupied by the Soviet army during an unspecified period of time. It is an allegory of the cruelty of occupation, the futility of the resistance of a few, and the deafness of the silent majority, a deafness that courageously resists the occupation and a deafness that hardens the heart and ignores the evil surrounding them. It could have happened anywhere anytime. The occupiers could have been Nazis, Ottoman Turks, American, English, or Spanish. The poetry is piercingly sharp, visionary, breathless and the metaphors are the likes of which you've never heard before, lines like “the sound we do not hear lifts the gulls off the water,” “Our hearing doesn't weaken, but something silent in us strengthens,” or “In these avenues, deafness is our only barricade.” This is drop-dead beautiful poetry.
