Book Synopsis The Logic of the Lure by : John Paul Ricco
Download or read book The Logic of the Lure written by John Paul Ricco and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The attraction of a wink, a nod, a discarded snapshot—such feelings permeate our lives, yet we usually dismiss them as insubstantial or meaningless. With The Logic of the Lure, John Paul Ricco argues that it is precisely such fleeting, erotic, and even perverse experiences that will help us create a truly queer notion of ethics and aesthetics, one that recasts sociality and sexuality, place and finitude in ways suggested by the anonymity and itinerant lures of cruising. Shifting our attention from artworks to the work that art does, from subjectivity to becoming, and from static space to taking place, Ricco considers a variety of issues, including the work of Doug Ischar, Tom Burr, and Derek Jarman and the minor architecture of sex clubs, public restrooms, and alleyways.

Book Synopsis The Road to Parnassus: Artist Strategies in Contemporary Art by : Diego Mantoan
Download or read book The Road to Parnassus: Artist Strategies in Contemporary Art written by Diego Mantoan and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can one become a successful artist? Where should one start a career in the art world? What are useful strategies to achieve recognition in the art system? Such questions hoard in students' minds ever since entering art school and they probably chase every kind of art professional who is at an early career stage. “The Road to Parnassus” tries to understand what makes a good start in today's art world, who are influential players in the field and which strategies might apply. The swift career ascension of Glasgow artist Douglas Gordon – one of today's leading visual artists – and of the broader YBA generation that rose into worldwide prominence in the 1990s – Damien Hirst and Sarah Lucas among the best known – serves as a convenient case to analyse contemporary artist strategies. This book takes a multidisciplinary approach – spanning from traditional art history, to sociology and economics – pursuing the reconstruction of the field of forces in art as intended by French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. Compared to previous publications on art system dynamics, such as Thompson's “The $12 Million Stuffed Shark”, this book offers an enhanced understanding of the factors that allow a young artist to enter the arena of contemporary art. The present research should help uncover the art system logic – which appears enigmatic to non-experts – revealing that artists are aware they need to consider global trends, beat competitors and meet the demands of dealers, collectors, curators and museums. This book furthers existing contributions on the YBAs (for example Stallabrass' “High Art Lite”), offering innovative conclusions on recent British art, such as on the duality between London and Glasgow, the gender opposition among emerging artists and the predominance of resourceful authors.

Book Synopsis Artistic Approaches to Cultural Mapping by : Nancy Duxbury
Download or read book Artistic Approaches to Cultural Mapping written by Nancy Duxbury and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making space for imagination can shift research and community planning from a reflective stance to a "future forming" orientation and practice. Cultural mapping is an emerging discourse of collaborative, community-based inquiry and advocacy. This book looks at artistic approaches to cultural mapping, focusing on imaginative cartography. It emphasizes the importance of creative process that engages with the "felt sense" of community experiences, an element often missing from conventional mapping practices. International artistic contributions in this book reveal the creative research practices and languages of artists, a prerequisite to understanding the multi-modal interface of cultural mapping. The book examines how contemporary artistic approaches can challenge conventional asset mapping by animating and honouring the local, giving voice and definition to the vernacular, or recognizing the notion of place as inhabited by story and history. It explores the processes of seeing and listening and the importance of the aesthetic as a key component of community self-expression and self-representation. Innovative contributions in this book champion inclusion and experimentation, expose unacknowledged power relations, and catalyze identity formation, through multiple modes of artistic representation and performance. It will be a valuable resource for individuals involved with creative research methods, performance, and cultural mapping as well as social and urban planning.
Download or read book Outbound written by Dana Friis-Hansen and published by Contemporary Arts Museum Houston. This book was released on 2000 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outbound: Passages from the 90's presents ten seminal works of art that have particularly resonated across the last decade: Janine Antony's Swoon (1997), Matthew Barney's The Ehrich Weiss State (1997), Cai Guo-Qiang's The Dragon has Arrived (1997), Robert Gober's Untitled (1997), Ann Hamilton's (bearings) (1996), Jim Hodges' You (1997), William Kentridge's History of the Main Complaint (1996), Rick Lowe and Deborah Grotfeldt's Sharing the Wealth (1999-2000), Shirin Neshat's Rapture (1999) and Fred Wilson's Guarded View. Selected by the exhibition curators with the idea of sharing ten works that, like passages from a journal, reflect their most memorable encounters with art of the 1990s, these works provide a view of the art of these past ten years. The works presented here are characterized by a rigorous intelligence, a rewarding sensuality, and a sincere engagement with social, political, and spiritual issues -- and they resound with the kind of material, physical, technological, and narrative sophistication of truly great art. Featuring full-color reproductions and perceptive essays, Outbound also includes an illustrated fifty-page timeline of the 90s.

Book Synopsis Impossible Presence by : Terry E. Smith
Download or read book Impossible Presence written by Terry E. Smith and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2001-09-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Impossible Presence brings together new work in film studies, critical theory, art history, and anthropology for a multifaceted exploration of the continuing proliferation of visual images in the modern era. It also asks what this proliferation—and the changing technologies that support it—mean for the ways in which images are read today and how they communicate with viewers and spectators. Framed by Terry Smith's introduction, the essays focus on two kinds of strangeness involved in experiencing visual images in the modern era. The first, explored in the book's first half, involves the appearance of oddities or phantasmagoria in early photographs and cinema. The second type of strangeness involves art from marginalized groups and indigenous peoples, and the communicative formations that result from the trafficking of images between people from vastly different cultures. With a stellar list of contributors, Impossible Presence offers a wide-ranging look at the fate of the visual image in modernity, modern art, and popular culture. Contributors: Jean Baudrillard Marshall Berman Jeremy Gilbert-Rolfe Elizabeth Grosz Tom Gunning Peter Hutchings Fred R. Myers Javier Sanjines Richard Shiff Hugh J. Silverman Terry Smith
Book Synopsis A Companion to Australian Art by : Christopher Allen
Download or read book A Companion to Australian Art written by Christopher Allen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Companion to Australian Art A Companion to Australian Art is a thorough introduction to the art produced in Australia from the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788 to the early 21st century. Beginning with the colonial art made by Australia’s first European settlers, this volume presents a collection of clear and accessible essays by established art historians and emerging scholars alike. Engaging, clearly-written chapters provide fresh insights into the principal Australian art movements, considered from a variety of chronological, regional and thematic perspectives. The text seeks to provide a balanced account of historical events to help readers discover the art of Australia on their own terms and draw their own conclusions. The book begins by surveying the historiography of Australian art and exploring the history of art museums in Australia. The following chapters discuss art forms such as photography, sculpture, portraiture and landscape painting, examining the practice of art in the separate colonies before Federation, and in the Commonwealth from the early 20th century to the present day. This authoritative volume covers the last 250 years of art in Australia, including the Early Colonial, High Colonial and Federation periods as well as the successive Modernist styles of the 20th century, and considers how traditional Aboriginal art has adapted and changed over the last fifty years. The Companion to Australian Art is a valuable resource for both undergraduate and graduate students of the history of Australian artforms from colonization to postmodernism, and for general readers with an interest in the nation’s colonial art history.

Book Synopsis The Best Animals are the Flat Animals, the Best Space is the Deep Space by : Diana Thater
Download or read book The Best Animals are the Flat Animals, the Best Space is the Deep Space written by Diana Thater and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los Angeles-based artist, Diana Thater presented The best animals, with combined elements filmed and taped at three locations. Thater's evocative use of animals contrasted nature with un-natural conditions and raised issues of nature versus culture. Employing modern technologies -- film, video monitors and video projection -- Thater addressed and challenged traditional precepts of art history and our basic assumptions about perception. Instead of the singular, static object usually presented as "art," she created a work composed of several environments that took different forms at each venue at which they were exhibited.

Book Synopsis Diana Thater. Keep the faith : a survey exhibition ; Kunsthalle Bremen / Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen, [21./19. März - 20. Juni 2004] by : Diana Thater
Download or read book Diana Thater. Keep the faith : a survey exhibition ; Kunsthalle Bremen / Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen, [21./19. März - 20. Juni 2004] written by Diana Thater and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mit der überblicksartig angelegten Ausstellung "Diana Thater. Keep the faith." präsentiert die Kunsthalle Bremen und das Museum für Gegenwartskunst Siegen eine umfassende Werkschau der kalifornischen Künstlerin Diana Thater (*1962). Sie bezieht in der noch jungen Videokunst eine höchst eigenständige Position, weil sie die Videoprojektionen mit dem Raum durch eingefärbtes Tages- und Kunstlicht verschmilzt. Ihre Themen kreisen um das Verhältnis von unberührter und kultivierter Natur, das sie am Bild des wilden oder gebändigten Tieres vorführt. Die zeitgleichen Ausstellungen in Siegen und Bremen ergänzen sich: In Bremen wird der Schwerpunkt auf die jüngeren Arbeiten seit 1998 gelegt, während das Siegener Museum sich den grundlegenden frühen Arbeiten widmet, die zwischen 1993 und 1997 entstanden sind. Der Katalog dokumentiert umfassend mit großen Farbabbildungen die in beiden Häusern installierten Arbeiten. Erstmals ist im Buch ein Verzeichnis aller bisher entstandenen Installationen und Monitorarbeiten von Diana Thater veröffentlicht. Die Katalogtexte nähern sich dem Werk der Künstlerin aus drei unterschiedlichen Perspektiven. Diana Thater erläutert in ihrem grundlegenden Aufsatz ihre Konzepte zu den in beiden Ausstellungsteilen gezeigten Arbeiten. Sie gibt damit zugleich einen Überblick über die bisherige Entwicklung ihrer künstlerischen Interessen. Barbara Engelbach untersucht den Umgang der Künstlerin mit dem Medium Video im Kontext der Diskussionen um Medienspezifik der 1960er und 1970er Jahre. Wulf Herzogenrath entwickelt zum künstlerischen Umgang Thaters vom projizierten Bild im architektonischen Raum eine Vorge-schichte ähnlicher Auffassungen von Künstlern früherer Medien, die mit Film- und Diaprojektionen arbeiteten.
