Die Weite des Eises
Photography’s immense potential for development became perceptible shortly after it was invented, and it could be seen in particular in series on glaciers and arctic landscapes. As early as the eighteen-sixties, photographers began connecting the aspect of (spatial) expanse to that of (temporal) change. Complementary views of polar landscapes taken during Arctic expeditions, showing them close up and from a distance, provided impressions of the depth and breadth of the topography. Glaciologists, on the other hand, needed to have photographs taken year after year in order to objectively assess the growth or contraction of the ice. What was also fascinating were stereoscopic images, with their three-dimensional effects created by putting together two simultaneous, but slightly staggered photographs: they permitted the viewer to get an almost immediate, physical sense of the incomprehensible expanses of ice. Ultimately, contemporary artists produced responses to these images: long, nighttime exposures by Darren Almond, aerial photographs by Olafur Eliasson, or Walter Niedermayr’s panoramas.
Featuring about one hundred outstanding works, this volume presents a broad spectrum of different kinds of glacial photography from 1860 to the present.

Utopia & Contemporary Art
Utopia has become a controversial concept, spanning the field between the belief in an ideal society and the dystopian nightmare. Within the last decade, the contemporary art scene has witnessed a return of utopia and utopian thinking. Whether detectable as an impulse, critically reassessed as a concept, or cautiously or daringly articulated in a specific vision—utopia continues to matter. This publication investigates the meanings of utopia in contemporary art. Theorists, critics, and curators discuss the different ways of thinking and performing utopia in contemporary art from a broad range of angles. The essays explore the current relevance of utopia as well as how people in different societies live, think, act, and imagine. The two parts, Utopia Revisited and Utopian Positions, provide both a theoretical backdrop for the reformulations of utopia in contemporary art as well as examinations of specific utopian stances in connection with the three-year utopia project at ARKEN Museum of Modern Art and solo shows by Qiu Anxiong, Katharina Grosse, and Olafur Eliasson.
