Sylvie Fleury | New Photograph Edition
Donald Taglialatella is pleased to announce the first collaboration between World House Editions and multi-media Swiss artist, Sylvie Fleury (b.1961).
Giulietta (2010, 15 x 19 7/8 inches) is a Chromogenic C-print mounted on Dibond in an edition of 24, and is the first photographic edition published by an American publisher. Giulietta is classic Sylvie Fleury; from the depiction of an American automobile (a fascination of the artists’ since her first car, a 1968 Chevy Camaro) through her use of designer clothing and jewelry as signs and signifiers commenting on consumer and popular culture, to the historical/art historical double entendre and ambiguity of the title of the work. Are we viewing a contemporary Juliet (Giulietta)?
Giulietta will debut and be featured at World House Editions' stand at the 2010 Editions|Artists's Books Fair from 04-07 November in New York. The artist is currently showing in, Fashionable Art – Mode in der Kunst, at the Kunst Raum Riehen in Basel, Switzerland.
