  • PRESS RELEASE Art Into Life!
    Contact: Anne Niermann / Sonja Hempel Press and Public Relations Heinrich-Böll-Platz 50667 Cologne Tel + 49 221 221 23491 [email protected] [email protected] PRESS RELEASE Art into Life! Collector Wolfgang Hahn and the 60s June 24 – September 24, 2017 Press conference: Thursday, June 22, 11 a.m., preview starts at 10 a.m. Opening: Friday, June 23, 7 p.m. In the 1960s, the Rhineland was already an important center for a revolutionary occurrence in art: a new generation of artists with international networks rebelled against traditional art. They used everyday life as their source of inspiration and everyday objects as their material. They went out into their urban surroundings, challenging the limits of the art disciplines and collaborating with musicians, writers, filmmakers, and dancers. In touch with the latest trends of this exciting period, the Cologne painting restorer Wolfgang Hahn (1924–1987) began acquiring this new art and created a multifaceted collection of works of Nouveau Réalisme, Fluxus, Happening, Pop Art, and Conceptual Art. Wolfgang Hahn was head of the conservation department at the Wallraf Richartz Museum and the Museum Ludwig. This perspective influenced his view of contemporary art. He realized that the new art from around 1960 was quintessentially processual and performative, and from the very beginning he visited the events of new music, Fluxus events, and Happenings. He initiated works such as Daniel Spoerri’s Hahns Abendmahl (Hahn’s Supper) of 1964, implemented Lawrence Weiner’s concept A SQUARE REMOVAL FROM A RUG IN USE of 1969 in his living room, and not only purchased concepts and scores from artists, but also video works and 16mm films.

Zij toonden zich enthousiaste kunstliefhebbers met veel ambitie en organiseerden destijds de eerste tentoonstelling met foto’s verzameld door een Nyenrode alumnus. Er had in de jaren daarvoor geen kunst gehangen aan de muren van het Albert Heijn gebouw, dus werden her en der aanpassingen gedaan Kunst in Opdracht om de ruimtes geschikt te maken voor exposities. Het bleek een dankbare investering want de Kunstzinnig verleden en heden ene tentoonstelling volgde de andere op. Museale stukken en soms zelfs kwetsbare kunstuitingen waren op onze gangen plotseling te bewonderen. Een aantal studenten ging zich verdiepen in de tentoongestelde kunst en ontpopten zich als gidsen We zijn zeer verheugd om met deze inmiddels zevende Art Fund Nyenrode tentoonstelling een voor de bezoekers. Dat was ook nieuw. Dit op zich was al een uitzonderlijke prestatie maar daar bedrijfskunstcollectie van een van Nyenrode’s Founding Father te kunnen tonen. Om juister te zijn bleef het niet bij. Het aanbod was zo interessant dat lezers van de Volkskrant zich in een oogwenk van een rechtsopvolger van de ‘Dienst der P.T.T.’, die in 1946 één van de 39 grondleggers was van wat inschreven voor exclusieve rondleidingen. Nyenrode werd een kleine galerie waarbij sommige kunst destijds het Nederlands Opleidings-Instituut voor het Buitenland heette. Nu inmiddels uitgegroeid tot ook te koop was – en ook gekocht werd.

  • The Urban and Cultural Climate of Rotterdam Changed Radically Between 1970 and 2000. Opinions Differ About What the Most Importa
    The urban and cultural climate of Rotterdam changed radically between 1970 and 2000. Opinions differ about what the most important changes were, and when they occurred. Imagine a Metropolis shows that it was first and foremost a new perspective on Rotterdam that stimulated the development of the city during this period. If the Rotterdam of 1970 was still a city with an identity crisis that wanted to be small rather than large and cosy rather than commercial, by 2000 Rotterdam had the image of the most metropolitan of all Dutch cities. Artists and other cultural practitioners – a group these days termed the ‘creative class’ – were the first to advance this metropolitan vision, thereby paving the way for the New Rotterdam that would begin to take concrete shape at the end of the 1980s. Imagine a Metropolis goes on to show that this New Rotterdam is returning to its nineteenth-century identity and the developments of the inter-war years and the period of post-war reconstruction. For Nina and Maria IMAGINE A METROPOLIS ROTTERDAM’S CREATIVE CLASS, 1970-2000 PATRICIA VAN ULZEN 010 Publishers, Rotterdam 2007 This publication was produced in association with Stichting Kunstpublicaties Rotterdam.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Honors College Theses by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@Pace. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract The Fluxus movement of the 1960s and early 1970s laid the groundwork for future female artists and performance art as a medium. However, throughout my research, I have found that while there is evidence that female artists played an important role in this art movement, they were often not written about or credited for their contributions. Literature on the subject is also quite limited. Many books and journals only mention the more prominent female artists of Fluxus, leaving the lesser-known female artists difficult to research. The lack of scholarly discussion has led to the inaccurate documentation of the development of Fluxus art and how it influenced later movements. Additionally, the absence of research suggests that female artists’ work was less important and, consequently, keeps their efforts and achievements unknown. It can be demonstrated that works of art created by little-known female artists later influenced more prominent artists, but the original works have gone unacknowledged.

Artists’ groups are an intimate part of postmodern artistic production in the visual arts, and their presence informs a wide spectrum of issues including modes of artistic practice, the exhibition and sales system, publicity and criticism, even the styles and subjects of art making. Groups of all kinds, collectives, collaborations, and organizations cut across the landscape of the art world. These groups are largely autonomous organizations of artistic labor that, along with the markets and institutions of capital expressed through galleries and museums, comprise and direct art. The presence of artistic collectives is not primarily a question of ideology; it is the expression of artistic labor itself. The practical requirements of artistic production and exhibition, as well as the education that usually precedes active careers, continuously involves some or a lot of collective work. The worldwide rise in the number of self- identiWed artist collectives in recent years reXects a change in patterns of artistic labor, both in the general economy (that is, artistic work for com- mercial media) and within the special economy of contemporary art.

    Dorothy Iannone Air de Paris www.airdeparis.com [email protected] Dorothy Iannone, Berlin, 2009. © Jason Schmidt Air de Paris www.airdeparis.com [email protected] Dorothy Iannone was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1933. She attended Boston University and Brandeis University where she majored in Literature. In 1961 she successfully sued the U.S. Government on behalf of Henry Miller's "Tropic of Cancer", which until then was censured in the U.S., to allow its importation into the country. She begins painting in 1959 and travels extensively with her husband to Europe and the Far East. From 1963 until 1967, she runs a co-operative gallery on Tenth Street. New York together with her husband. In 1966 they live for some months in the South of France where she begins a close friendship with Robert Filliou and other artists from Fluxus. She meets and falls in love with German- Swiss artist Dieter Roth during a journey to Reykjavik and will share his life in different European cities until 1974. Two years later Iannone moves to Berlin after receiving a grant from the DAAD Berlin Artists' Program. She still lives and works in Berlin, where she pursues her artistic production. Since the beginning of her career in the 1960's, Dorothy Iannone has been making vibrant paintings, drawings, prints, films, objects and books, all with a markedly narrative and overtly autobiographical visual feel. Her oeuvre is likean exhilarating ode to an unbridled sexuality and celebration of ecstatic unity, unconditional love, and a singular attachment to Eros as a philosophical concept.
