	BARNEY, MATTHEW Cremaster 3 New York, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. 2002. (ISBN: 0892072539) Soft Cover , Oblong. 1 vol. (unpaged), illus.; 24 x 30 cm. Written and directed by Matthew Barney; produced by Barbara Gladstone and Matthew Barney; videography: Peter Strietmann; photography: Chris Winget; music composed by Jonathan Bepler; associate producer: Chelsea Romersa; production design: Matthew D. Ryle; starring Richard Serra and Aimee Mullins. Published on the occasion of the exhibition Matthew Barney: The Cremaster Cycle, organized by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York. Catalogue of a traveling exhibition held at Museum Ludwig, Cologne, June 1 - Sept. 1, 2002; Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris, Oct. 10, 2002 - Jan. 5, 2003; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, Feb. 13 - May 11, 2002. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Light shelfwear to wraps. OVERSIZE! No priority/international, except by special arrangement. "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." - Publisher. Very Good.
