The thrust of his practice has always pointed beyond: beyond the art object, beyond the studio, beyond the medium, beyond the gallery, beyond the self. Beyond all these categories and into the realm of the social, the public, the democratic, the mass produced, the architectural, the anarchic, the humorous. Graham's early work, \u003cem\u003eHomes for America\u003c\/em\u003e—a series of snapshots of suburban New Jersey tract housing accompanied by short parodic texts, made as a page layout for Arts magazine—announced a critical art grounded in the everyday, and it merged the artist's interest in cultural commentary with art's most advanced visual modes. His 1984 “video-essay” \u003cem\u003eRock My Religion \u003c\/em\u003etraced a continuum of separatism and collective ecstasy from the American religious sect the Shakers to hard-core punk music.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book's design evokes magazine format and style, after Graham's important conceptual work from the 1960s in that medium. Generously illustrated in color and black and white, \u003cem\u003eDan Graham: Beyond\u003c\/em\u003e features eight new essays, two new interviews with the artist, a section of reprints of Graham's own writing, and an animated manga-style “life of Dan Graham” narrative.

The artists, interest in transformation and process has led them to produce works that are painstakingly handcrafted from a wide range of materials. They have found poetry in the depiction of quotidian objects and in the powerful resonance of small actions. Included in the exhibition are Eduardo Abaroa (Mexico), Magdalena Atria (Chile), Mónica Bengoa (Chile), Fernando Bryce (Peru), Darío Escobar (Guatemala), Máximo González (Argentina), Marco Maggi (Uruguay), and Livia Marin (Chile).

After relocating to Los Angeles in 2003, Ruby received a MFA from Art Center College of Design in 2005, and his work has been featured in numerous exhibitions internationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eMOCA, 2008\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eSoftcover, 152 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003e9 x 6 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eThis book is out of print\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eCondition: New\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MOCA Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40580362600528,"sku":"1012758","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0035\/4502\/products\/sterling_ruby_300.jpg?v=1254353922"},{"product_id":"1001184","title":"Judy Fiskin: Some More Art (MOCA Focus)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy Ann Goldstein\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished on the occasion of\u003cem\u003e Judy Fiskin: Some Photographs, 1973-1992\u003c\/em\u003e, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, October 18, 1992 – December 6, 1992.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMOCA, 2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoftcover, 36 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9 x 7 inches\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MOCA Store","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":24704942,"sku":"1001184","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0035\/4502\/files\/BOW_Template2000px_06341eeb-669f-4ee4-b828-f97c76b1b6f8.jpg?v=1771460575"},{"product_id":"1011027","title":"Matthew Monahan: Five Years, Ten Years, Maybe Never (MOCA Focus)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy Ari Wiseman\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished on the occasion of \u003cem\u003eMatthew Monahan: Five Years, Ten Years, Maybe Never\u003c\/em\u003e, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, July – October 2007.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMatthew Monahan (b. 1972, Eureka, CA) creates striking sculptures that are built from drawings, as well as fragments of smaller artworks made with disparate materials, including floral foam, beeswax, glitter, pins, Styrofoam, glass, and drywall. From these unlikely media, he builds freestanding, assemblaged sculptures within which hand-crafted characters—warriors, saints, slain heroes, and demons—seem to express heroic emotions ranging from jubilation to anguish. These figures serve as both icons and iconoclasts in a purposefully allusive narrative from a mysterious unidentified past epoch. Working simultaneously as both chronicle and summation of the artist’s creative processes, Monahan’s sculptures confront the formal issues inherent in figurative drawing and sculpture while addressing his artistic, personal, and political concerns.

Drawing freely from a broad range of sources—such as the work of other artists, popular and vernacular culture, television, fashion, and Hip-Hop and Techno music—her art explores these different forms of cultural expression in an open, fluid approach that embraces both relationships and contradictions. Von Bonin constructs a community of social relations in her artwork using role-playing, collaboration, appropriation, and the transformation of the commonplace. Her works touch upon ideas of play and indoctrination, structure and improvisation, cultural and gender representations, identity, and self-reflection—with both absurdity and humor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"caps\"\u003eMOCA \u0026amp;\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eVerlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, 2007\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoftcover, 160 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11 x 9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFINAL SALE\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MOCA Store","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":24705032,"sku":"1011312","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0035\/4502\/files\/fat-female.png?v=1716585117"},{"product_id":"durant-sam-5000926","title":"Sam Durant","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy Michael Darling and Rita Kersting.

Ends of the Earth challenges many myths about Land art-that it was primarily a North American phenomenon, that it was foremost a sculptural practice, and that it exceeds the confines of the art system. Essays by leading young scholars will offer new insights into Land art's emergence, including its intrinsic connection to media, its dreams of an elsewhere, the attraction of wastelands, and the problems inherent in a historical evaluation of site-specific or ephemeral art. The book will also include a series of reflections from the major curators, critics, and dealers who helped to make Land art both as work and discourse in the 1960s and 1970s.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMOCA and Prestel, 2012\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardcover, 264 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e10 x 10 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MOCA Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40703202066512,"sku":"8000006","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0035\/4502\/products\/423_5194_125151_xxl.jpg?v=1336598004"},{"product_id":"1020043","title":"Amanda Ross-Ho","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy Rebecca Morse.

For these staged mise-en-scène works, produced while Kasten lived in California, a female student was hired by the artist to pose in various photographs on a chair outdoors.

Matta, who has spent most of his life living and working in Europe, occupies a unique and pivotal place in the history of American art of this period. Of all the surrealists in exile in New York during these years, Matta formed the closest links with American artists of his own generation and served as a catalytic force in communicating ideas about surrealist processes and relating to the development of a new language of abstract painting. Matta in America includes full-color illustrations of approximately twenty paintings and twenty drawings made during the artist's American sojourn. An essay tracing the development in the 1940s of Matta's work and highlighting his interactions with other artists of the period is complemented by an essay by art historian William Rubin. Originally written for the Centre Georges Pompidous's 1985 Matta monograph, Rubin's essential text, \"Matta in the United States: A Personal Note,\" has never before been published in English.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublished by MOCA \u0026amp; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago (2001)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis catalogue is out of print\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardcover with 88 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e11 x 10 inches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MOCA Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":18463263557,"sku":"500087","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0035\/4502\/products\/s-l300_307c80eb-6cd2-4990-be09-87b7dc4b3a42.jpg?v=1466547350"},{"product_id":"1028551","title":"Where's Warhol?","description":"By Catherine Ingram\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIllustrated by Andrew Rae\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eJoin Andy on a tour through time as he visits the art of the past.

In the early 1960s, Andre's creative focus shifted to writing poetry when he took a job as a freight brakeman and conductor for the Pennsylvania Railroad.
