The Man in Black / Drone Harness
Matthew Barney, Jonathan Bepler
New York, NY: Printed Matter, Inc.. 2000
This provocative multiple by Matthew Barney and Jonathan Bepler is a fund-raising edition for Printed Matter. The 1970's-style twelve-inch vinyl picture-disc in a gatefold album cover features images from Barney's Cremaster 2. The record has two tracks, both audio remixes by Bepler from the soundtrack he composed for the movie. Side A is "The Man in Black" featuring Dave Lombardo (the drummer from the heavy metal band Slayer) and 200,000 honey bees. Side B is a dark and moody track entitled "Drone Harness." The edition is an amazing amalgam of sonic and visual vitality: a major contribution to Barney's ever-growing oeuvre. Each record is signed and numbered by both artists.

Artforum. Vol. 43, No. 9 (May 2004)
Artforum
New York, NY: Artforum. 2004
Artforum's summer preview issue is a guide to fifty contemporary art exhibitions opening worldwide from May through August. Artforum critics give tips on what to see and where, from Ed Ruscha at the Whitney to "Beyond Geometry" at MoCA to Susan Hiller at BALTIC to Group Zero at Siena's Palazzo delle Papesse. Jeffrey Kastner writes on Robert Storr's plans for the SITE Santa Fe Biennial and Scott Rothkopf interviews Laura Hoptman about her choices for the 54th Carnegie International. Lists of artists to be included in both exhibitions debut in this issue.
Also in May: Four Artforum regulars weigh in on the Whitney Biennial: Jack Bankowsky, David Joselit, Pamela M. Lee, and Scott Rothkopf; art historian Christine Mehring tells the story of Interfunktionen -- the seminal German magazine that helped bring about the "transformation of transatlantic art relations"-- from its 1968 founding by Friedrich Heubach in protest against Documenta 4 to its implosion seven years later as new editor Benjamin H.D. Buchloh published Anselm Kiefer's provocative "Occupations" series.
As part of the new "In Conversation" series, Tim Griffin introduces a dialogue between Dan Graham and Michael Smith; Bennett Simpson talks with Matthew Barney about his collaboration with Arto Lindsay for Salvador's Carnival; Peter Halley and Abigail Solomon-Godeau consider MoMA's "Fashioning Fiction"; Svetlana Alpers remembers philosopher Richard Wollheim; and Miranda July counts down her Top Ten.

Cremaster 2
Matthew Barney
Minneapolis, MN: Walker Art Center. 1999
The fourth installment of Barney’s ongoing series of Cremaster ‘operas,’ Cremaster 2 is loosely based on the life of serial killer Gary Gilmore. This time out, Barney filmed in the Salt Flats of Utah, the Columbia Icefield in Canada, and New York City. The scenario revolves around Gilmore’s fascination with his alleged maternal grandfather, Harry Houdini, and his desire to join Houdini in the afterlife. This artist’s book of the film comes encased in a molded plastic sheath featuring the emblem of a beehive, a symbol of the Mormon Tabernacle.

Cremaster 3
Matthew Barney
New York, NY: Guggenheim Museum Publications. 2002
Cremaster 3, the last in Matthew Barney's epic five-part film project, is part zombie, part gangster film. Set in 1930s New York and Saratoga Springs as well as Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland, the plot explores the Irish mob system, freemasonry, and Celtic lore as further symbols for the forces at play in Barney's mythological system. Named after the muscle that raises or lowers a man's testicles in response to temperature, the Cremaster series has featured Barney as a satyr, a magician, a ram, Harry Houdini, and even famous murderer Gary Gilmore, props made from tapioca, petroleum jelly, ice, and self-healing plastic, and settings as fantastic and desolate as the Isle of Man, an empty football stadium in Idaho, and a nearly empty opera house in Hungary. The films are slow-moving and weirdly hynotic, full of elaborate sexual and biological allusions, references to sports and fashion, and a bizarre mix of autobiography, history, and private symbolism that have earned him comparisons to Wagner. This book is the final of the five companion volumes published to coincide with the release of each of the Cremaster films. Each was designed in an original manner by the artist and features photographs and stills from the film it accompanies.
