    17 May – BOZAR & The colors of the rainbow 1. Introduction: The Centre for Fine Arts, gender and LGBTIQ. (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Trans-sexual, Intersex and Questioning). As part of its international mission, the Centre for Fine Arts Brussels (BOZAR) aims to show and establish exchange with cultures from all over the world, to promote cultural diversity and intercultural dialogue and to advocate the role of culture as a catalyst for creativity. BOZAR does not only show art for art’s sake. We believe in debate, and in the community building capacity of the arts. As a cultural organization with a large variety of artistic disciplines ranging from literature and music to discussion platforms, we have always strived to offer a programme that is highly ranked on an artistic level but at the same time widely accessible to our 1.3 million visitors per year. In doing so, the CFA aims to reflect the multi-cultural reality of the hyper-diverse city of Brussels. We have had the honour of welcoming personalities such as Salman Rushdie, Barack Obama and the Dalai Lama. Exceptional events like these have only solidified our involvement in social and political issues as well as our leading cultural role in Belgium. We aim to combine art and society to offer a nuanced vision. In 2014, the central Summer of Photography exhibition at the Centre for Fine Arts examined the role of female artists in the second wave of feminism, WOMAN: The Feminist Avant-Garde of the1970s: Works from the SAMMUNG VERBUND, Vienna curated by Gabriele Schor.

  • Reading #2 Artistic Process and Training
    Page | 1 Artistic Process and Training ART 100: Introduction to Art Reading #2 Artistic Process and Training This reading explores the artistic process and the art industry surrounding it: from individual artists turning ideas into works of art to collaborative creative projects, public art and the viewer. It covers the following topics: ● The Artistic Process ● The Role of Museums, galleries, and Critics ● The Individual Artist and Public Art ● Artistic Training The Artistic Process How many times have you looked at a work of art and wondered “how did they do that”? Some think of the artist as a solitary being, misunderstood by society, toiling away in the studio to create a masterpiece, and yes, there is something fantastic about a singular creative act becoming a work of art. The reality is that artists rely on a support network that includes family, friends, peers, industries, businesses, and, in essence, the whole society they live in. For example, an artist may need only a piece of paper and pencil to create an extraordinary drawing, but depends on a supplier in order to acquire those two simple tools.

  • Being out There: the Challenges and Possibilities of Public Art in Shanghai
    Julie Chun Being Out There: The Challenges and Possibilities of Public Art in Shanghai “The predicament of public art emanates from problems of categories, of content, systems of reference, and conditions of events.” –Siah Armajani1 “Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.” (Permanently etched onto the tallest public mural in Asia, Busan, South Korea) –Hendrik Beikirch2 While the production and placement of art in public spaces is generally founded upon utopian ideals that seek to bridge art and the community, the realities of seeing such projects to completion are often riddled with contention. Public art often requires district, city, and state permits. Large national memorials must go through a series of public hearings before work can commence. Even while the installation of the work is in middle of production or after full completion, public opinion can further alter its course. History reveals the heated debate provoked by Maya Lin’s abstract design for the Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial (completed in 1982) in Washington, D.C. which was placated by the subsequent placement of the figurative bronze sculptures The Three Servicemen (1984), by Frederick Hart, and the Vietnam Women’s Memorial (1993), by Glenna Goodacre. Moreover, we need only be reminded of Richard Serra’s Tilted Arc (1981), sited on Foley Federal Plaza in New York City, which came under attack by the public for almost a decade and in 1989 was eventually removed in response to this outcry. If these cases represent complex challenges in a democratic society like the United States, are obstacles inherent to public art more or less difficult to negotiate in a single-party state like the People’s Republic of China? The notion of supporting public art in a collective society should hardly seem paradoxical.

  • Smaller Fairs Mean Great Art, Closer to Home
    Smaller Fairs Mean Great Art, Closer to Home nytimes.com/2020/03/14/arts/dallas-art-fair-art-brussels.html Ted March 14, Loos 2020 1/6 2/6 To many participants, the international art fair phenomenon has become a traveling circus of sorts — if it’s Thursday, this must be Art Basel Miami Beach. Or could it be Frieze London? Wake me when it’s time for the next TEFAF. But in the age of the coronavirus, with such events being canceled or postponed — along with many other cultural happenings — the same participants who used to complain about the rigorous schedule may find themselves wistful for the days of regular programming. Two fairs that were scheduled for this spring but delayed because of the pandemic illustrate why such events can thrive: There are serious collectors everywhere, particularly for contemporary art, and they do not always want to get on a plane to look at a work they may want to buy. The majority of art fairs are for the people who live in the host city. Catering to the local base of collectors is something of a specialty for the Dallas Art Fair, a gathering of about 94 dealers that was scheduled for April and has moved to Oct. 2 to 4, and Art Brussels, which was also scheduled to be a gathering of nearly 160 dealers in April and has even more optimistically chosen June 26 to 28 as its new slot. In some ways, the fairs are as different as their host cities. The Dallas fair, established in 2009, is newer and brasher and is held in the Fashion Industry Gallery of the city’s arts district.

  • Arne Quinze My Secret Garden Valencia
    Press Release “My Secret Garden — Valencia” presents a series of six public sculptures that will enter into dialogue with the powerful architecture of Santiago Calatrava. Each sculpture of the series addresses the rich diversity of forms, structures and colours found in the Plantea. With “My Secret Garden Valencia”, Arne Quinze calls for a more profound dialogue between nature and culture in the development of our modern society. By challenging his public with unconventional sculptures, he encourages a sociocultural conversation that stimulates creativity and embraces diversity. Arne Quinze My Secret Garden Valencia Watch the @arnequinze making of #arnequinze PREVIEW Thursday, Feb 7, 2019 from 11:30 am – 2:30 pm EXHIBITION Feb 8 – Oct 13 CIUTAT DE LES ARTS I LES CIÈNCIES Avinguda del Profesor Lopez Piñero 7 “My Secret Garden — Valencia” For the new series of Lupine artworks, nature was once again Arne Quinze’s main inspiration. These sculptures are distillations of nature that appear to have grown organically as a result of continuous attractive and repulsive impulses with the aim of preserving a balance, albeit delicate. At first sight they may perhaps appear fragile, but they are nevertheless capable of withstanding this harsh dialogue. Their colour palette is broad and inspired by the abundance of tints Quinze finds in his wild flower Diversity In each of Arne Quinze’s recent works we encounter a garden. This exposes the contrast between seemingly chaotic confrontation between individual elements the diversity of nature and the encroaching that form an integral part of a biotope that is created in monotony of our often grey cities.
