- First edition. One of 180, numbered and signed copies. An early project where Gerz still is explicitly interested in the relationship between text and image. In the form of a statement he writes in the introduction:”Die Aufnahmen zum Dachau-Projekt sind am 3. September 1972 an dem Ort entstanden, der als Konzentrationslager Dachau bekannt geworden ist und der heute die KZ-Gedenkstätte, mit dem Museum darin, beherbergt. Dabei wurde nicht berücksichtigt, was der Anlass zum Museum war, sondern die zahlreichen Anweisungen, Hinweise und Vorschriften, die das Museum selbst betreffen und sein Funktionieren. Da es sich in Dachau um ein Museum handelt heute und kein KZ - das Wort Museum wird man schwerlich in grosseren Buehstaben geschrieben finden als In Dachau -, könnten die zahlreichen Beschriftungen nicht unbefangener sein. Ihr Vorhandensein ist der Beweis ihrer Unverfänglichkeit. Die im Museum Dachau reproduzierten - hier nicht aufgenommenen - Beschriftungen aus dem KZ Dachau zeigen, dass die gleiche Funktion den Schriftzeichen eigen ist, im Museum und im KZ. Sie sind das Medium, das beide möglich macht. Latent beinhaltet die Beschriftung im KZ Dachau das Museum Dachau und die im Museum Dachau das KZ. Sie selbst ist das Dachau-Projekt.”

- First edition. One of 500 copies. This booklet is published after a performance that took place in the Museum Bochem. 'Das Stuck fand im Museum Bochum in einem Saal statt, der einen einzigen Zugang hatte. Der Boden des Raums (9x17m) war bedeckt mit dem Wort 'leben', das mit weisser Kreide geschrieben war. Beim Betreten des Saals fand sich der Betrachter der Beschriftung gegenuber, die den ganzen Boden bedeckte. Auf der Stirnwand konnte er zwei Tafeln erkennen, die ebenfalls beschrieben waren. Um die Schrift lesen zu konnen, musste er sich ihr nahern, d.h. die Schrift am Boden betreten und beschadigen. Die Schrift am Boden verwischte sich so innerhalb von zwei Stunden. Auf den Tafeln stand: 'An der Stelle uberfiel sie die gleiche Ratlosigkeit noch einmal. Nichts tat sich; man hdtte sie durchaus fur einen Zuschauer halten konnen, ware da nicht etwas iibrig geblieben wie ein inwendiges Zittern: das vorweggenommene Echo.' euro 30

051. Gerz, Jochen. Die Schwierigkeit Des Zentaurs Beim Vom Pferd steigen. Munchen: Kunstraum, 1976. Cloth clam shell box containing 6 original photographs (12, 7 x 17,7 cm) mounted on heavy boards, + one original handwritten text in mirror writing, signed and dated + one colophon page, numbered and signed in pen by Gerz in mirror writing also. Each photograph is hand painted and numbered in mirror writing. Clam shell box lightly soiled.

- First edition. One of XXV(XXX) numbered and signed copies with 6 original handpainted and numbered photographs + one handwritten text. In the handwritten text in mirror writing Gerz answers a letter. The answer is different in each of the 30 copies. Here Gerz writes:

"22/10/76

Am liebsten wäre mir, wenn schon dein Brief vorhanden ist und du es bist, die ihm schrieb, dass das worauf er sich bezieht, nicht existiere. Denn es würde mich viel weniger stören, dass dein Brief von ‘nichts handle” als von etwas, dass ausserhalb des Briefs ist und ihm nichts verdankt. Diese scheinbare Verbindung zwischen dem Brief und seinen Gegenstand ist ja pure Illusion. Die Sprache erträgt nicht, einen anderen Gegenstand zu haben als sich selbst. Ist sie nicht gerade deshalb “unsere Sprache”? Denn mir selbst geht es nicht anders, wir sin da am kommunikativsten und sozialsten, wo wir nichts beinhalten als uns selbst. Als ob wir den Wahl hätten! So ist es das kapitale Misverständnis, das ein Kunstwerk auslösen kann, wenn man sich damit abgibt und ihm mit Verstandnis, Passion, Kritik zu leibe rückt. Dabei übergeht man ganz dessen Eigenschaften und Bedingungen und negiert zuerst einmal, das überhaupt Kunst ist. Gerade die Produktion von Kunst zielt ja auf die Vermeidung dessen ab, was man oft als Mimetik bezeichnet, was aber selbst nur eine Kopie der Mimetik ist, Widergabe des Zwangs kopieren zu müssen. Eine solche Arbeit schafft eine Schöpfung, d.h. eine Abbild, doch ist das Abbild das Einzige, Unike, in einen Total ungeschaffenen Welt, in der nichts über sich selbst hinausgeht. Deshalb ist auch das Kunstwerk in Wirklichkeit eine immer misratenes Abbild, insofern als – sobald es zustande kommt – es keine Ruckschlüsse mehr auf seinen Ursprung, den Künstler, zulässt. Wie ein Portrait, auf dem sich der Portraitierte nicht widererkennt. Die missratene Kopie ist Kunst, den Rest ist leben und Illusion. Jochen Gerz (....)"

Gerz made for the 37th Venice Biennale in 1979 an installation "Die Schwierigkeit des Zentaurs beim vom Pferd steigen" that later has been reconstructed in the Landesmuseum Wiesbaden.

This publication is representative for an interest that Gerz develops since the early seventies about the relationship between text and image (photo/ texts) and the ‘impossibility of representation’. (see also moeglin-delcroix 80; Glasmeier 167). euro 2.600

- First edition. '« LA CAPRA » was presented the evening of Tuesday, January 20, 1976 at Studio Morra, Via Calabritto 20, in Naples. Performing with me in the piece were Vittorio Buongiorno, Fabio della Sala, and Felice Gallo . . . and also in a certain way, Jasmina Ban, who decided to cut off all her hair for the ladder, rather than just a single lock. My journal notes, expanded and annotated, which I made a few days before the performance, and after getting to know the space, establish my initial thinking about the work. The score diagrams the sequence of activities and the relationship of the four of us to each other that night. The third text I wrote several days after the performance, and is a summation of the images. The dreams are the ones I read that night, and which I dipped into a pail of water and tied to the chair I was sitting on, one by one after I read them. They are a random selection of my dreams, and some dreams of others close to me — family and friends. ' euro 60

- First edition. Originally produced as a contribution to the Multiples, Inc. "Artists and Photographs" portfolio of 1970. 'In New York and Seattle an area was arbitrarily selected within which a person in each city photographed places that he, or she, felt could be characterized as being (1) "frightening" (2) "erotic" (3) "transcendent" (4) "passive" (5) "fevered" and (6) "muffled". Within each area each person made two entirely different sets of six photographs after which all four sets were sent to a third person (the artist) with no information that would make it possible to key any one of the photographs with any one of the words originally specified. The four sets (24 photographs) were then scrambled altogether and 12 of these arbitrarily selected for this piece; to those were added 4 photographs that had not been made to characterize any kind of place. 16 photographs, a Xerox map of New York and another of Seattle join with this statement to constitute the form of this piece.'

Sie sind die Manifestationen der Subjektivität, durch welche hindurch andere Subjekte und Objekte erst sinnvoll werden und das Leben sich in seiner Zeitlichkeit demontriert. Wie lange solche Momente auch dauern: das volle Leben überschreitet die rationalisierte Zeitmessung und macht sich an derjenigen Zeit fest, welche empfunden und nicht gewußt wird…..” ”Und zwischen dem Geplänkel ein kurzer Griff zur Sofortbild-Kamera. Nun erscheinen alle Actricen/Akteure innert kurzer Zeit aufs Papier gebannt als Doppel der Situation. Und mal so, mal so:”Bitte nochmals abdrucken!” Das intimtheater wird mit wechslndem Team festgehalten. Viele schöne, absurde und komische sekunden, warden eingefroren. Ohne technische Tricks, mit bescheidenem Objektiv und Blitzlicht, oft bewußt unscharf oder verwischt, bleibt ein Lacheln gebannt, ein Augenaufschlag und eine Handbewegun erhalten.

- First edition of this rare publication of Manzoni. On the last page of this little booklet Manzoni writes about the works he has made since 1957, starting with his ‘achromes’, since 1960 how he started working with ‘threads’, his ‘space sculptures’, his ‘fingerprints’... On the left hand pages of this booklet fragments of this text, while on the right hand page we find reproductions of the ‘objects’, or ‘realizations’. It is interesting to see, and it would need some further attention, how manzoni’s work, that is anti-representational to the extreme, uses photographs not only to document his works, but also how he uses photography to exhibit the texture of his objects (often using micro photography) and how his photographs are reproduced in a nearly challenging conventional esthetic tradition.
