Otobong Nkanga: Uncertain Where the Next Wind Blows" is the accompanying catalogue of the inaugural exhibition of the Lise Wilhelmsen Art Award Programme. Both the exhibition and catalogue present a broad spectrum of Otobong Nkanga's (b. 1974) oeuvre through almost 70 works created within the last 20 years. Nkanga's drawings, installations, tapestries, photographs, sculptures, and performances explore the complex impact of human history and presence on nature and landscapes. Through her multidisciplinary practice, Nkanga studies resource extraction, manufacture, and the global circulation of goods in the economy.00Exhibition: Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, Bærum, Norway (13.11.2020 - 24.05.2021).

Josef No Tricks, No Twinkling of the Eyes presents a reading of Albers' artistic and pedagogic legacy through the lens of contemporary artists, writers and art historians. Selections from Albers' own writings, including classic texts such as "On My Painting," "Color" and "On My Homage to the Square," mingle with essays by well-known Albers scholars Nicholas Fox Weber ("Minimal Means, Maximum Effect") and Jeannette Redensek ("On Josef Albers' Painting Materials and Techniques"); meditations by Norwegian artist Dag Erik Elgin ("Preparing for Painting to Happen"), Eva Diaz ("Jailbreaking Geometric Abstraction") and Doug Ashford ("Dear Josef"); and a collage sequence by Andrea Geyer that pays homage to Albers' prints. A wealth of color reproductions of Albers' paintings, prints and furniture are dispersed throughout the book. The design of this handsome, clothbound volume, by Jeanne Betak, draws on Albers' own typography and design sensibility.
