In 1992, Main-based German painter, graphic artist and filmmaker Helke Bayrle (b. 1937) began videotaping the installation of each exhibition at Portikus, the contemporary Frankfurt exhibition space established in 1987. These videos form a remarkable and intimate archive of the storied contemporary art institution and the exceptional artists and personnel that worked within it. Coinciding with the launch of a website containing all of Bayrles Portikus videos, this oversized softcover monograph pays tribute to the artists extraordinary work through a comprehensive timeline, including over 1000 video stills plus statements by past and current directors and curators. Art critic and historian Kirsty Bell writes about the history of Portikus and the meaning of Bayrles work. Also included in the book is a conversation with the artist and Sunah Choi who since 2001, has edited the videos that comprise Bayrles truly unique undertaking. Chronologically organized voluminous color images are interspersed with texts by noted authors and curators Daniel Birnbaum, Nikolaus Hirsch, and others.
