Download or read book Art Unlimited? written by Franz Schultheis and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently still a blank spot on the world map of art, China today occupies one of the top positions in the rankings of the global art market and has moved into the center of the speculations and the covetousness of its protagonists. But what is really happening on the spot, beyond the ethnocentric distortions of the Western viewpoint? What social representations and uses of art can be identified? A research team from the University of St. Gallen has taken up such questions in an ethnographical field research project which enables the actors in this emergent and nonetheless already market-dominated art field to have their say.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Sculpture and the Critique of Display Cultures by : Dan Adler
Download or read book Contemporary Sculpture and the Critique of Display Cultures written by Dan Adler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Dan Adler addresses recent tendencies in contemporary art toward assemblage sculpture and how these works incorporate tainted materials – often things left on the side of the road, according to the logic and progress of the capitalist machine – and combine them in ways that allow each element to retain a degree of empirical specificity. Adler develops a range of aesthetic models through which these practices can be understood to function critically. Each chapter focuses on a single exhibition: Isa Genzken’s "OIL" (German Pavilion, Venice Biennale, 2007), Geoffrey Farmer’s midcareer survey (Musée d’art contemporain, Montréal, 2008), Rachel Harrison’s "Consider the Lobster" (CCS Bard Hessel Museum of Art, 2009), and Liz Magor’s "The Mouth and Other Storage Facilities" (Henry Art Gallery, Seattle, 2008).

Download or read book Darja Bajagić written by Alissa Bennett and published by Sternberg Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For her first solo museum exhibition, New Yorkbased emerging artist Darja Bajagic (b. 1990) turns to the murky terrain where real and staged violence bleed into each other with an ease that is both unsettling and alluring. Published on the occasion of her 2016 show, this slender softcover catalog, Unlimited Hate, presents a practice that spans painting, photography, collage, video and installation in full-color illustrations with texts by curators Alissa Bennett, Franklin Melendez and Natalia Sielewicz. Following the lure of the fringes, the artist culls her imagery from fan-gore magazines, true-crime TV shows, fetish websites, obscure online forums and hidden chat rooms tucked away in the darker reaches of the Web. She handles these disparate source materials with a dose of humor, working them into densely layered compositions that are at once confrontational and poetically fragile. Bajagic explores loaded questions of embodiment, viewership and power relations, all the while interrogating our need to hold images accountable.
Book Synopsis Contemporary Art Biennials in Europe by : Nicolas Whybrow
Download or read book Contemporary Art Biennials in Europe written by Nicolas Whybrow and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-17 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through its examination of five quite different art events in cities across Europe, Contemporary Art Biennials in Europe offers a compelling exploration of how public art takes place in the modern city. Roughly tracing a central horizontal trajectory from the western to the eastern edges of the continent, Nicolas Whybrow considers the Folkestone Triennial in the UK, Sculpture Projects Münster in Germany, the Venice Biennale in Italy, Belgrade's Mikser Festival in Serbia and the Istanbul Biennial in Turkey. Writing within the context of a thirty-year international 'biennial boom', Whybrow interrogates the extent to which biennial events and their artworks seek to engage with the socio-cultural and political complexity of cities, in particular the work that is involved in this relationship. With its focus on Europe, he also tells a composite story of continental difference at a moment of high tension, centering on issues of migration, political populism and uncertainty around the future form of the European Union.
Book Synopsis Authentically African by : Sarah Van Beurden
Download or read book Authentically African written by Sarah Van Beurden and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-25 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Together, the Royal Museum for Central Africa in Tervuren, Belgium, and the Institut des Musées Nationaux du Zaire (IMNZ) in the Congo have defined and marketed Congolese art and culture. In Authentically African, Sarah Van Beurden traces the relationship between the possession, definition, and display of art and the construction of cultural authenticity and political legitimacy from the late colonial until the postcolonial era. Her study of the interconnected histories of these two institutions is the first history of an art museum in Africa, and the only work of its kind in English. Drawing on Flemish-language sources other scholars have been unable to access, Van Beurden illuminates the politics of museum collections, showing how the IMNZ became a showpiece in Mobutu’s effort to revive “authentic” African culture. She reconstructs debates between Belgian and Congolese museum professionals, revealing how the dynamics of decolonization played out in the fields of the museum and international heritage conservation. Finally, she casts light on the art market, showing how the traveling displays put on by the IMNZ helped intensify collectors’ interest and generate an international market for Congolese art. The book contributes to the fields of history, art history, museum studies, and anthropology and challenges existing narratives of Congo’s decolonization. It tells a new history of decolonization as a struggle over cultural categories, the possession of cultural heritage, and the right to define and represent cultural identities.

Book excerpt: When a prominent American Senator, former Chairman of the House Committee on Strategic Defense Issues, is found brutally murdered in the apartment of a high-class hooker, his briefcase, containing Top Secret documents, is handed to Colonel “Jazz” Sinclair, the top operative in a deep-cover Black Budget operation codenamed Cobra. Breaking into the deceased Senator’s house Jazz finds a highly sophisticated underground control center containing banks of computers and other electronic devices. Attempting to hack into the data banks he is only partially successful, but unearths enough evidence to suggest the senator, under orders from a sinister force in Britain, manipulating a rogue faction within the CIA and Al Qaeda, orchestrated the 9/11 attacks back in 2001. Unable to further penetrate the various data banks; Jazz however learns enough to convince him the senator had been spearheading a sophisticated campaign to launch America into a War of Resources, with the major oil fields of the world as the ultimate prize. Taking what he obtained to his chief, Admiral Granite Blaise, the admiral decides to inform the President. When the Admiral is killed on his way to the White House and Jazz narrowly escapes an attempt on his own life, Jazz realizes he has opened a can of worms that could bring down the government. Going underground he solicits the help of his old friend, the celebrated Mafia Boss, Fingers Cabrioni, who informs him he has been placed on America’s “Most Wanted” list. Undeterred, Jazz digs deeper. Confronting the Boston banker who payrolled the 9/11 attacks he falls in love with the man’s beautiful wife, Abby. Together they flee to South Africa where Ab-by’s folks own a secluded holiday home. In the interim the British Force has contracted the services of the world’s deadliest assassin, known simply as “The Woman”, to find and eliminate Jazz. Can Jazz and Abby, at the mercy of a faceless, totally ruthless, seemingly invincible enemy, survive?
