  • 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.

  • Dorothy Iannone
    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.

  • Dieter Roth “Drawings” April 5 - May 3, 2008
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Dieter Roth “Drawings” April 5 - May 3, 2008 Gladstone Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of over 500 drawings by German- born Swiss artist Dieter Roth. Covering a vast terrain throughout his career, producing prints, sculpture, installation, audio and video, Roth thoroughly documented his subjective view of the world while eluding any easy classification. The thirty-six bundled groups of drawings on view were created between 1977 and 1990 and represent a central part of his oeuvre, despite their rare showings during his life. While appearing in the Kopiebucher (Copy Books) that he created in small editions during his life, this exhibition marks the US debut of some of these most telling and essential works from this fascinating artist. Roth collected and bound these works on paper in unique books that he mostly kept private during his life, turning them into a wondrous archive of the artist’s mind. Just as he exhibited the dexterity of his skill in creating objects from such disparate materials, such as chocolate and sausage, his drafting techniques range from simple graphite lines to more swirling compositions rendered from multiple layers of ink and gouache over-painting. Working in series allowed Roth to sustain his flowing train of thought, while permitting his constant experimentation with texture and imagery. Though some works may seem unfinished, failed, or hastily dashed-off, in each work his gestural fluidity spirals closer to a portrait of the mind in constant production. The diary would be an apt metaphor for the position these played in his conceptual view of the world, as the continued insistence upon his working mind as subject shades each group of drawings with the impressions and feelings that filled his day- to-day life.

  • Art, Food, and the Social and Meliorist Goals of Somaesthetics
    Page 85-101 Art, Food, and the Social and Meliorist Goals of Somaesthetics Art, Food, and the Social and Meliorist Goals of Somaesthetics Else Marie Bukdahl Abstract: In his somaesthetics, Richard Shusterman emphasizes, to a much greater degree than other contemporary pragmatists, the importance of corporality for all aspects of human existence. He focuses particularly on “the critical study and cultivation of how the living body (or soma) is used as the site of sensory appreciation (aesthesis) and creative self-stylization.”1 Somaesthetics is grounded as an interdisciplinary project of theory and practice. Many in the academic field have asked Richard Shusterman why he has not included “the art of eating” in his somaesthetics. He recently decided to do this and he has held lectures on this subject in Italy with the title The Art of Eating. L’Art di mangiare at the conference Food, Philosophy and Art - CIBO, Filosofia e Arte, Convergence Pollenzo, April 4-5, 2013 in collaboration with students from the University of Gastronomic Sciences. He has opened a new field, which is discussed in this article. The main subject of this article on visual art and eating will be a presentation of the internationally renowned Thai artist Rirkrit Tiravanija, who has created many surprising installations in Thailand, other countries in the east, Europe and particularly the US, where he resides and is professor at Columbia University. His installations often take the form of stages or rooms for sharing meals, cooking, reading and playing music. The architecture or other structures he uses always form the framework for different social events.

  • Intense Singularities: Dieter Roth's and Henning Christiansen's
    INTENSE SINGULARITIES: DIETER ROTH’S AND HENNING CHRISTIANSEN’S PROCESSUAL AESTHETICS LESLIE SCHUMACHER A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO December 2017 © Leslie Schumacher, 2017 Abstract This thesis examines the potential flux and indeterminacy within an aesthetic experience, with a particular focus on the works of Dieter Roth and Henning Christiansen. This study looks at the desires, forces, and energies that are at work in the aesthetic experience, and further, aims to evoke the nature of the intensities that are generated through each interaction. Informed by Jean- Francois Lyotard and Julia Kristeva, this research shifts the perspective from a fixed systematic approach that is concerned with the works objective qualities, inherent essence, or material properties, to a processual approach that works through the nuances, ambiguities, and energies that constitute arts vitality. Applying Lyotard’s libidinal aesthetics to works of art whose materiality is transitory adds further complexity to an understanding of the energies and forces that are at work in an aesthetic experience, initiating a theory of perpetual flux, fragmentation, and singular intensities. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract........................................................................................................................ii Table of Contents.........................................................................................................iii

In fact, however, it is intended even poetry. With self-irony he restrains his envy of fel- literally. Firstly, Dieter Roth often resorted to the low artists, girding himself against criticism at the same imagery of digestion to describe his work and, secondly, time. He publishes a series of volumes of poetry entitled his entire output as an artist was pervaded by a desire “shit books” because “I wanted to be able to offer shit- to unite the supposed opposites of beauty and waste, of tiness with impunity […].” Roth, a jack-of-all-trades and dilettantism and artistic mastery.

Introductory roneo-typed text sheet on pink paper + 54 original screenprinted & offset-printed postcards on 18 perforated sheets. Jan Voss postcard signed by the artist on verso. Original screenprinted card covers, perfect gummed spine. The final 12th issue of KWY magazine, published in an edition of 300 copies. The magazine was founded by the artists René Bartholo and Lourdes Castro in 1958 as a vehicle for the Portuguese avant-garde in exile. The letters ‘K, W and Y’ were so rarely used in Portuguese that they were officially banished from the language in 1943, serving as a metaphor for the artists’ own feelings of marginalisation from their native country. The magazine’s final issue was this ‘Album’ (dated Winter 1963 but actually published 1964). It is a compilation of 54 postcards printed on 18 perforated pages, designed as such so that the cards could be removed and mailed. Includes designs by Pierre Alechinsky, André Balthazar, René Bertholo, Quido Biase, Karl-Friedrich Brust, Camille Bryen, Samuel Buri, Dick Cassee, Lourdes Castro, Paul Colinet, Corneille, Carlos Cruz-Diez, Sergio Fergola, Erro, Gon├ºalo Duarte, Alberto Greco, Jacques van der Heyden, Iri Bernardini, Marta Minujin, André Morain, Alexandro Otero, Julio Le Parc, Mercedes Pardo, Shunk-Kender, W.
