{"product_id":"64560-clegg-guttmann","title":"Clegg \u0026 Guttmann","description":"Clegg \u0026amp; Guttmann, active in the international art scene since the early 1980s, play with the conventions of 17th-century Dutch portraiture to apply them to the context of our present day. The photographic portraits by Clegg \u0026amp; Guttmann, collected in this volume, are rejected commissions. The subjects had commissioned a portrait from the artists but were free to reject the result. However, the artists reserved the right to exhibit and publish the work, which remains in their possession. This tactic of reversal also symbolically represents the power dynamics in this peculiar category of portrait photography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMICHAEL CLEGG (b. 1957, Dublin) and YAIR MARTIN GUTTMANN (b. 1957, Jerusalem) have worked together as the artist duo Clegg \u0026amp; Guttmann since 1980. The focus of their collaborative work is on installations and photographic projects. In addition, both artists also work as university lecturers: Clegg is a professor at the Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design, and Guttmann is a professor at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49755246788872,"sku":"9783775754590","price":38.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775754590_7f683cb9-1e4f-4461-b80b-59b776d55880.jpg?v=1744051887","url":"https:\/\/hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/64560-clegg-guttmann","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
