This publication takes an in-depth look at Spleen, Rosemarie Trockel's series of video projections connected by cantilevered aluminum walls suffused with warm ambient light. Installed at the Dia Foundation in New York during 2002-2003, Spleen drew on a constellation of emotions to provoke, sometimes humorously, unsettling questions about generally held notions of identity. Trockel's continuous interest in the multifarious meanings of "spleen" is, of course, filtered through the feminist perspective that lies at the heart of her entire practice. Also part of the exhibition, and thus also part of this volume, are Trockel's artist's books, a site in which many of her ideas have been developed over a period of decades. Made in close collaboration with the artist and using specially-shot photographs of her work and the exhibition, this book can be considered as an artist's book, as part of Trockel's oeuvre--certainly a useful addition to the existing literature. Lynne Cooke, Dia's curator of the exhibition, and Gregory Williams, a scholar of late modern German art, add essays that provide informed critical insight to her work.
