(Dis)Orientation Identity, Landscape and Embodiment in the work of Roni Horn A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Art History at the University of Canterbury by Barbara A. C. Garrie UNIVERSITY OF CANTERBURY 2012 (Dis)Orientation Identity, Landscape and Embodiment in the work of Roni Horn. Barbara Garrie ii Dedicated to the memory of my Dad. John Brunton Garrie 1946-2012 iii Abstract This thesis considers the links between identity and landscape in key works by American artist Roni Horn, focusing on a selection of her photo-installations and books. In particular it argues that Horn approaches landscape as a performative category through which to address the performativity of identity, and that in doing so her work privileges the viewer as an embodied participant. Drawing on a feminist approach grounded in phenomenology, the thesis locates androgyny as a key structuring principle in the artist’s work. Identifying herself as neither male nor female, Horn employs the notion of in-between-ness to negotiate gender binaries of male/female and to describe the indeterminate and contingent nature of androgynous being. Importantly, the thesis argues that Horn addresses these issues of identity by staging experiences in her work that invite the viewer to perform the very processes by which identity is defined and played out. This strategy is examined through concepts of doubling, the sublime, horizons and dwelling, each of which in their own way involve a sense of orientation and disorientation that gestures toward the in- between-ness of androgyny. The thesis also considers the tensions between visuality and embodiment in Horn’s work. Her use of photographic images within an installation practice is one that establishes a complex set of relations between the opticality of the photograph and the actuality of ‘real’ space. It is argued that the experiential potential of Horn’s photo- installations and books is only realised through the dialectical relation between visuality and embodiment in which both are equally privileged. iv Contents vi Acknowledgements vii List of Illustrations 1 Introduction 13 Chapter One Somewhere In-Between: The Performance of Androgyny 50 Chapter Two On the Surface of Things: An Androgynous Sublime 88 Chapter Three Perspectives on the Horizon: Subjective Perception 119 Chapter Four A Dwelling Perspective: The Act of Placing 158 Conclusion 165 Bibliography 177 Illustrations v Acknowledgements I would like to thank the members of my supervisory team; Dr Morgan Thomas and Dr Jo Diamond.

To my parents in particular: Dad, you gave me your inquisitive nature and the ability to laugh at myself when things get too serious – so very important in thesis writing! I miss you and I wish you were here to see this project completed. Mum, over the last few months you have revealed yourself to be a tower of strength and have taught me why it is that we keep on going even when things are tough. You have my greatest admiration.

    The Lowell Lectures on the Ascent of Man

    The Lowell Lectures on the Ascent of Man Author(s): Drummond, Henry Publisher: Grand Rapids, MI: Christian Classics Ethereal Library Description: As well as an evangelist and missionary, Henry Drummond was a naturalist. After Darwin published his monumental On the Origin of Species, controversy exploded across Christendom, and Drummond was one of the first to address it effectively. Fiercely dedicated to both Christian faith and scientific progress, he sought to reconcile Darwin's theory of evolution with the teachings of the Bible. In 1893, Drum- mond delivered a series of lectures on perhaps the most controversial suggestion of Darwin's theoryÐthat humans shared a common ancestor with apes. Today, Drummond's words remain just as controversial as they were a century ago, and human evolution remains hotly debated throughout the church.

Courtesy of The Estate of David Wojnarowicz and P.P.O.W. Gallery, New York, NY New York, September 24, 2009 — In this selection of works drawn principally from the Whitney’s permanent collection, the repetitive image of the proof sheet is the leitmotif in a variety of works spanning the range of the museum’s photography collection, including the works of Paul McCarthy, Robert Frank, Ed Ruscha, and Andy Warhol. The exhibition is co-curated by Elisabeth Sussman, Whitney Curator and Sondra Gilman Curator of Photography, and Tina Kukielski, Senior Curatorial Assistant. A Few Frames opens on September 25, 2009 in the Sondra Gilman Gallery and runs through January 3, 2010. Decisions about which photograph to exhibit or print are frequently the end result of an editing process in which the artist views all of the exposures he or she has made on a contact sheet—a photographic proof showing strips or series of film negatives— and then selects individual frames to print or enlarge.

Photo courtesy of the artist. NEW YORK, March 26, 2009 -- Dan Graham, one of the pioneering figures of contemporary art, is the subject of a landmark retrospective opening at the Whitney Museum of American Art on June 25. Dan Graham: Beyond is the first-ever comprehensive museum survey of Graham’s career to be done in the United States. The show is co-curated by Chrissie Iles, the Whitney’s Anne and Joel Ehrenkranz Curator, and Bennett Simpson, MOCA associate curator. Organized by The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, in collaboration with the Whitney, it examines Graham’s extensive body of work in photographs, film and video, architectural models, indoor and outdoor pavilions, conceptual projects for magazine pages, drawings, prints, and writings. Dan Graham: Beyond is the latest in a trio of collaborations between the Whitney and MOCA, following Gordon Matta-Clark: You Are the Measure and Lawrence Weiner: As Far As the Eye Can See, celebrating the work of three major figures in American art, each of whom emerged in the 1960s. Following its presentation at the Whitney from June 25 to October 11, 2009, the Graham exhibition travels to the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, from October 31, 2009 to January 31, 2010.

    A Vocabulary of Water: How Water in Contemporary Art Materialises the Conditions of Contemporaneity

    A VOCABULARY OF WATER HOW WATER IN CONTEMPORARY ART MATERIALISES THE CONDITIONS OF CONTEMPORANEITY Tessa Elisabeth Fluence Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne March 2015 ABSTRACT This thesis provides an in-depth analysis of how water in three contemporary artworks provides an affective vocabulary that gives material expression to the forces and dynamics that shape our current era. It argues water is not simply a medium or metaphor; in the artworks, it articulates and is symptomatic of the conditions of contemporaneity. Focusing on the dynamics of time, placemaking and identity, it argues water in the artworks makes present our era’s fluid, multiple, precarious, contingent, complex, disorientating, immersive and overwhelming nature. This dissertation uses Terry Smith’s theory of contemporaneity as a lens through which to identify the dynamics and forces of this era. By focusing on water in three artworks, it amplifies and extends his work to consider how the particular vocabulary of water materialises these forces. This is demonstrated through three case studies of exemplary artworks in different mediums, made between 2000 and 2004, by Zhu Ming, Roni Horn and Bill Viola. Drawing on Mieke Bal’s approach of conceptual travelling, I do a close reading of each artwork, orchestrating a conversation between the work, the concept of water and the theory of contemporaneity. Focusing on the role of water in each work, I argue water provides a potent comment on the conditions of contemporaneity, offering a new ontology that is appropriate to, and symptomatic of, today’s complex conditions.
