  • Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected]
    Vol 1 No 2 (Autumn 2020) Online: jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/nexj Visit our WebBlog: newexplorations.net Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected] This illustrated article discusses the various manifestations of street art—graffiti, posters, stencils, social murals—and the impact of street art on urban environments. Continuing perceptions of street art as vandalism contributing to urban decay neglects to account for street art’s full spectrum of effects. As freedom of expression protected by law, as news from under-privileged classes, as images of social uplift and consciousness-raising, and as beautification of urban milieux, street art has social benefits requiring re-assessment. Street art has become a significant global art movement. Detailed contextual history includes the photographer Brassai's interest in Parisian graffiti between the world wars; Cézanne’s use of passage; Walter Benjamin's assemblage of fragments in The Arcades Project; the practice of dérive (passage through diverse ambiances, drifting) and détournement (rerouting, hijacking) as social and political intervention advocated by Guy Debord and the Situationist International; Dada and Surrealist montage and collage; and the art of Quebec Automatists and French Nouveaux réalistes. Present street art engages dynamically with 20th C. art history. The article explores McLuhan’s ideas about the power of mosaic style to subvert the received order, opening spaces for new discourse to emerge, new patterns to be discovered. The author compares street art to advertising, and raises questions about appropriation, authenticity, and style. How does street art survive when it leaves the streets for galleries, design shops, and museums? Street art continues to challenge communication strategies of the privileged classes and elected officials, and increasingly plays a reconstructive role in modulating the emotional tenor of urban spaces.

  • 1 Strange Food, Paper Alexandra Halasz Dartmouth College
    Strange Food, Paper Alexandra Halasz Dartmouth College [email protected] for I did but seal once to a thing and I was never mine own man since 2 Henry VI 4.2.76 I. In Shakespeare’s 2 Henry VI, Jack Cade responds affirmatively to his fellow rebel’s suggestion that they ‘kill all the lawyers’ by offering a metamorphic emblem of materiality and historicity: Is not this a lamentable thing that the skin of an innocent lamb should be made parchment, that parchment, being scribbled o’er, should undo a man? Some say the bee stings, but I say, ’tis the bee’s wax, for I did but seal once to a thing and I was never mine own man since (4.2.72-6). Creatures and the things they make or become are bound in a process of continual displacement. Jack himself is displaced by a past act of ‘seal[ing] once to a thing’. The past act, moreover, is unfinished, for it is one in which the making of a mark on some thing obligates the actor to a stipulated future. The ‘thing’ and the man thus cross into each other in the unfolding of time.1In a recent essay, Julian Yates argues that the ‘skin 1 I quote from the Arden edition, King Henry VI, Part 2, ed. by Ronald Knowles (Surrey: Thomas Nelson and Sons, 1999). The crossing is explicit in the textual history of the speech: parchment acquires motive force when the quarto’s line, ‘Why ist not a miserable thing that of the skin of an innocent lamb should parchment be made,& then with a litle blotting over with ink, a man should undo himselfe’ becomes the 1 of an innocent lamb’ Cade invokes at the beginning

The shadow looks like a sculpture of a shadow rather than the absence of light whereas the figure simply dissolves into the field. Leave a Reply Cancel reply Your email address will not be published. Marina might be right, but that is the question about the prices at the art market. He travelled with his new lover Peter Lacey to Tangier. He soon broke his own rules and we witness examples of narrative and depictions of the dead, such as the never before exhibited Seated Figure , showing a profile of Dyer. But can a life self- described as chaos really be reduced to year time slots? If your familiarity with the work has been garnered through jpegs and printed catalogues, then there is a lot to re-learn about the grandeur, detail and materials such as sand, dust and aerosol applied with such tools as textured fabric of these painting up close. For more information about the piece, click here! This generously illustrated monograph opens with the fecund period, then traces subsequent periods of exceptional artistic output, decade by decade, through the end of Bacon's career. Painted between May and June of , this great Baconian landscape was the last work the artist made before a major retrospective of his work held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in Triptych, The triptych is a large three panel painting each panel measuring 78 x 58 in, x The figure itself is hinted at with the use of very little paint and virtually no drawing of forms.

Grosvenor Gallery SADEQUAIN IN PARIS 1961–1967 5 November–14 November 2015 Syed Ahmed Sadequain Naqqash was arguably one of the most important South Asian artists of the 20th century. Sadequain was born in Amroha, today’s India, in 1930 to an educated North Indian Shia family, to which calligraphy was a highly valued skill. Following his education between Amroha and Agra and after a number of years working at various radio stations in Delhi and Karachi as a calligrapher- copyist, he began to dedicate more time to his artistic practices. In 1955 he exhibited a number of paintings at the residence of Prime Minister Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy, a liberal patron of the arts. Soon after this, he received a number of important governmental commissions for municipal murals, which led to a number of solo exhibitions in Pakistan. In 1960 Sadequain won the Pakistan National prize for painting, and was invited by the French Committee of the International Association of Plastic Arts to visit Paris. The following few years were to be some of the most important for the young artist in terms of his artistic development, and it was whilst in Paris that he began to achieve international critical acclaim.
