    Edmonton Arts Council - Public Art TITLE YEAR MEDIUM AT_A_GLANCE Mariposa 2005 Sculpture Steel sculpture that captures the grace of both a butterfly and matador Immense Mode 2009 Sculpture A two-storeys tall pair of legs with brown shoes and black and white stockings made from hand- made bricks. Page 1 of 728 09/27/2021 Edmonton Arts Council - Public Art MATERIAL INSTALLATION_ADDRESS DESCRIPTION mild steel Borden Art Park Mariposa is the Spanish word for butterfly and also refers to a particular stance adopted by a matador in the bullfight. As with many of Peter Hide’s sculptures, the image of the piece cannot be pinned down to one literal interpretation. Hide states, “Sculpture is, perhaps, the most literal of the arts, and for it to become a stimulus to imagination and feeling it has to overcome its literality. As an abstract sculptor one way I can achieve this is by using an ambiguous image or a succession of images that tend to cancel each other out.” Hand-carved bricks, glass tile 111 Street and 51 Avenue Immense Mode is an immediately recognizable work. Made from 42,000 pounds of brick and mortar, the sculpture is an expression of whimsy, which, at 20 feet tall, demands your attention.

  • Architecture and Art in Public Space
    The foundation stone of the project was the construction of the Grand Duchess Charlotte Bridge in 1963, based on plans drawn up by the German architect Egon Jux (1927-2008). It is ARCHITECTURE also called “Red Bridge” because of its vermillion hue. The firmly modernist work of metallic art is today a classic of the AND ART IN genre. It straddles the Alzette valley to link the Plateau with the city centre. With the planned construction of a tramway right across Luxembourg’s capital city, the bridge was widened and PUBLIC SPACE equipped with a new parapet designed by the engineering bureau Laurent Ney & Partners. KIRCHBERG PLATEAU The early town-planning in Kirchberg was purely functional. The road infrastructure was an expressway with two intersections providing access to secondary roads serving the new buildings. The European Institutions were established at the approach to the bridge at the western end of the Plateau, with the buildings centred on their plots of land. Later, the “Foires Internationales ARCHITECTURE AND ART IN PUBLIC SPACE de Luxembourg” (now Luxexpo The Box) and a residential district IN KIRCHBERG PLATEAU were built at the eastern end of the Plateau, while an Olympic- size swimming pool was built at the Plateau’s centre.

  • PRESS RELEASE Axel Lieber – ILLICIT
    PRESS RELEASE Axel Lieber – ILLICIT CONSTRUCTIONS 28 April – 30 June 2018 taubert contemporary is pleased to present works by Axel Lieber in the gallery for the first time during the Gallery Weekend Berlin 2018. The exhibition titled Illicit Constructions presents pieces of various work groups from recent years around a central, space-filling sculpture that was developed by the artist for this exhibition. The title of the exhibition already refers to the fragility of some of the exhibited objects, but especially to the new sculpture, an intricate structure with architectural references. Source material for this are commercial comics which Lieber deprived of their narrative elements by removing the image information and blackening the speech bubbles, which elevates the remaining material, the leftovers, to actual "building material". The previously inconspicuous frames of the panels now become structural, constructive components that, when assembled continuously, generate a monumental architectural model. Through the perforated facade, another structure becomes visible inside, which is a smaller version of the outer one. Depending on how and from which perspective the visitor approaches the sculpture, his or her perception shifts between model and monument, with the inside and outside interweaving and forming a complex tapestry. Axel Lieber always searches for the most distant point, the point at which his objets trouvés are still recognisable, but nevertheless receive an autonomous reality through a transformative act of reduction. He hollows out concrete objects semantically and fills the resulting gaps with new content and cavities in order to make the unknown visible in the familiar. By deliberately reducing and eliminating everyday objects, Lieber gives his sculptures and installations a specific, humorous-laconic serenity, which contrasts the horror vacui, the ubiquitous fear of emptiness in the visual arts, with its own artistic attitude.

  • The Everyday Artefacts of World Politics: Why Graphic Novels, Textiles and Internet Memes Matter
    The everyday artefacts of world politics: why graphic novels, textiles and internet memes matter in world politics Caitlin Hamilton A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Social Sciences Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences December 2016 3 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Hamilton First name: Caitlin Other name/s: n/a Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: Social Sciences Faculty: Arts and Social Sciences Title: The everyday artefacts of world politics: why graphic novels, textiles and internet memes matter in world politics Abstract World politics has conventionally been a realm of ideas, instead of things. While ideas matter, the paucity of research into the artefacts of world politics and particularly the everyday artefacts of world politics represents a gap in how we know the world. By developing a form of artefact analysis specifically designed to study the things of world politics, I examine what three types of everyday artefacts – graphic novels, textiles and internet memes – can tell us about world politics. Graphic novels, for example, show how conflict and the everyday co-exist in a curious mash-up of banality and violence; they also complicate narratives of world politics with which we may be more familiar, highlight the fundamental importance that everyday makers play in the lived experience of world politics, and they have significant parallels with the research processes involved in producing scholarship. Textiles are a vehicle for everyday makers to explore and express their ethnic and national identities and can function as a form of documentation.
