  • Conceptual Art in Britain 1964–1979 Art & Language Large Print Guide
    Conceptual Art in Britain 1964–1979 12 April – 29 August 2016 Art & Language Large Print Guide Please return to exhibition entrance Art & Language 1 To focus on reading rather than looking marked a huge shift for art. Language was to be used as art to question art. It would provide a scientific and critical device to address what was wrong with modernist abstract painting, and this approach became the basis for the activity of the Art & Language group, active from about 1967. They investigated how and under what conditions the naming of art takes place, and suggested that meaning in art might lie not with the material object itself, but with the theoretical argument underpinning it. By 1969 the group that constituted Art & Language started to grow. They published a magazine Art-Language and their practice became increasingly rooted in group discussions like those that took place on their art theory course at Coventry College of Art. Theorising here was not subsidiary to art or an art object but the primary activity for these artists. 2 Wall labels Clockwise from right of wall text Art & Language (Mel Ramsden born 1944) Secret Painting 1967–8 Two parts, acrylic paint on canvas and framed Photostat text Mel Ramsden first made contact with Art & Language in 1969. He and Ian Burn were then published in the second and third issues of Art-Language. The practice he had evolved, primarily with Ian Burn, in London and then after 1967 in New York was similar to the critical position regarding modernism that Terry Atkinson and Michael Baldwin were exploring.

  • European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960
    INTERSECTING CULTURES European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960 Sheridan Palmer Bull Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree ofDoctor ofPhilosophy December 2004 School of Art History, Cinema, Classics and Archaeology and The Australian Centre The University ofMelbourne Produced on acid-free paper. Abstract The development of modern European scholarship and art, more marked.in Austria and Germany, had produced by the early part of the twentieth century challenging innovations in art and the principles of art historical scholarship. Art history, in its quest to explicate the connections between art and mind, time and place, became a discipline that combined or connected various fields of enquiry to other historical moments. Hitler's accession to power in 1933 resulted in a major diaspora of Europeans, mostly German Jews, and one of the most critical dispersions of intellectuals ever recorded. Their relocation to many western countries, including Australia, resulted in major intellectual and cultural developments within those societies. By investigating selected case studies, this research illuminates the important contributions made by these individuals to the academic and cultural studies in Melbourne. Dr Ursula Hoff, a German art scholar, exiled from Hamburg, arrived in Melbourne via London in December 1939. After a brief period as a secretary at the Women's College at the University of Melbourne, she became the first qualified art historian to work within an Australian state gallery as well as one of the foundation lecturers at the School of Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne. While her legacy at the National Gallery of Victoria rests mostly on an internationally recognised Department of Prints and Drawings, her concern and dedication extended to the Gallery as a whole.

  • 145 the Linguistic Turn in Conceptualism and After
    Art Inquiry. Recherches sur les arts 2015, vol. XVII ISSN 1641-9278145 Kazimierz Piotrowski Władysław Strzeminski Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź [email protected] THE LINGUISTIC TURN IN CONCEPTUALISM AND AFTER Abstract: One of the most spectacular turns in the art of the 20th century was based on the linguistic reorientation of philosophy, whose extreme manifestation was Wittgenstein's non- denotational conception of meaning. It inspired the so-called analytical conceptualism that was trying in vain to overcome the heterogeneous nature of conceptism, from which it derived. This is reflected especially in Joseph Kosuth's confusion concerning the neo-positivist inspiration and one of the guiding themes of natural language philosophy which emphasizes the significance of metaphor and the fundamental role of the functor as in human thinking. The following article presents this process of inconsistent reduction of art to language, showing some of its consequences and its replacement by contextualism. Keywords: conceptism, conceptualism, contextualism, extension, intension, linguistic turn Attempts to compare or reduce art to language were set off by the high position of literature, especially by the special status of poetry, which, since antiquity, played a leading role in the paragone (competition) between the arts of word and image. At least since Mannerism, poetic conceptism also had an impact on the visual arts and integrated the divided fields of art in general. This tendency – to perceive an artwork as a sign continued in the Enlightenment’s allegoriza- tion and the Romantic symbolization, although it was halted by the formalist tradition of Gotthold Ephraim Lessing's Laocoon (1766), further reinforced by the post-Kantian formalism of Konrad Fiedler in the late 19th century.

Boyd, Ian Burn, Lauren Burrow, and Fred Lonidier. The work of art is possibly one of the only commodities with equal claim to both private and civic space. It is due to how artworks are embedded in our social relations that we recognise their different values: as historical artefacts, as objects of appreciation (“beautiful” or sensible to taste), political critiques, private financial investments, modes of communication, public documents of the national imaginary—the list goes on. However, the line that divides private and civic has become ever more indiscernible in recent decades—for instance, the erosion of public infrastructure and state industry, private capitalisation on culture and entertainment, the withering of the 8 hour work day, the return of 19th century work conditions, and the ongoing enclosure of our personal lives by a new technological industrialism.

  • Sebastiano Del Piombo and His Collaboration with Michelangelo: Distance and Proximity to the Divine in Catholic Reformation Rome
    SEBASTIANO DEL PIOMBO AND HIS COLLABORATION WITH MICHELANGELO: DISTANCE AND PROXIMITY TO THE DIVINE IN CATHOLIC REFORMATION ROME by Marsha Libina A dissertation submitted to the Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland April, 2015 © 2015 Marsha Libina All Rights Reserved Abstract This dissertation is structured around seven paintings that mark decisive moments in Sebastiano del Piombo’s Roman career (1511-47) and his collaboration with Michelangelo. Scholarship on Sebastiano’s collaborative works with Michelangelo typically concentrates on the artists’ division of labor and explains the works as a reconciliation of Venetian colorito (coloring) and Tuscan disegno (design). Consequently, discourses of interregional rivalry, center and periphery, and the normativity of the Roman High Renaissance become the overriding terms in which Sebastiano’s work is discussed. What has been overlooked is Sebastiano’s own visual intelligence, his active rather than passive use of Michelangelo’s skills, and the novelty of his works, made in response to reform currents of the early sixteenth century. This study investigates the significance behind Sebastiano’s repeating, slowing down, and narrowing in on the figure of Christ in his Roman works. The dissertation begins by addressing Sebastiano’s use of Michelangelo’s drawings as catalysts for his own inventions, demonstrating his investment in collaboration and strategies of citation as tools for artistic image-making. Focusing on Sebastiano’s reinvention of his partner’s drawings, it then looks at the ways in which the artist engaged with the central debates of the Catholic Reformation – debates on the Church’s mediation of the divine, the role of the individual in the path to personal salvation, and the increasingly problematic distance between the layperson and God.

  • Noter 12.10.2015
    Konseptualisme Forelesning #2, 12.10.2015 Konseptualisme • Stiller kritiske spørsmål til konvensjoner, ideologier og egen rolle i samfunnet. • Begrepet ble allment mot slutten av 60-tallet. Får stor utbredelse til USA, Latin-Amerika, Japan og Europa på 70-tallet. • Utfordrer (den greenbergske) modernismens syn på kvalitet, estetikk, medium og autonomi. • Fysisk utforming mindre viktig. Nye medier (foto, video, tekst, tabeller, readymades) og enkle, billige materialer brukt på en ikke-illuderende måte. • Dokumentasjon som integrert del av verket. Prosess viktig. • ˮBeing an artist now means to question the nature of art. If an artist accepts painting (or sculpture) he is accepting the tradition that goes along with it. That’s because the word “art” is general and the word “painting” is specific. Painting is a kind of art. If you make paintings you are already accepting (not questioning) the nature of art.ˮ - Joseph Kosuth: Art after Philosophy, 1969. • Spørsmål om kunstens natur bør være kunstens hovedoppgave. Maleri og skulptur, utfordrer ikke kunstens vesen og er dermed ubrukelige. • Motsetter seg den ”greenbergske” formalismen. • Kunsten må smelte sammen med livet. Avantgardistisk ideal. • John Cage 4’33 (1952) • Konseptualiseringen av kunsten innebærer en omdefinering av kunstneren, kunstverket og betrakteren. Reconsidering conseptual art – 1966-1977 Alexander Alberro (2000) trekker frem fire retninger ved konseptkunsten på 60-tallet: • Arven etter Duchamp. Problematisering av kunstverkets natur. Lingvistisk. • Reduktivisme - kunstobjektet går mot en oppløsning. • Dematerialisering. Kunstverket trenger ikke ha en fysisk form. (negasjon av det estetiske innholdet). • Distribusjon. Plassering av verket som del av kunstnerisk kontekst. Lingvistisk konseptualisme • Joseph Kosuth, Christine Kozlov, Art&Language group (problematiserer kunstverkets tradisjonelle struktur).

This technique, of which The rose is perhaps the most display highlights the vitality of work by a group of artists celebrated. A number of artists also experimented with who were excited at the capacity of these techniques to linocutting, which was taught in schools and art schools create images that were modern. during this period as an exercise in design. Adelaide Perry Such a blossoming of work was influenced by the greatly influenced its popularity through the example of her example of contemporary European and American own work – seen here in her impressive print The bridge - printmakers through the English journal Studio and by and through teaching. Dorrit Black, Ethel Spowers and Australian artists Lionel Lindsay, Margaret Preston and Eveline Syme studied under English artist Claude Flight at Napier Waller who championed the art of relief printmaking; the Grosvenor School of Modern Art in London, producing reinforced by exhibitions, articles published in the journal works that exemplified his credo that lino cutting was ‘the Art in Australia and a contemporary enthusiasm for ultimate modern medium’. Due to the association of wood Japanese prints. Artists’ interest in wood and lino cuts and lino cuts with craft, décor and the feminine sphere should also be seen in the context of early twentieth century (particularly through The Home magazine), work in this area art, which witnessed a continuing breakdown of barriers of printmaking, though praised and published, was judged between art and craft; and of modernism, in which artists of lesser importance by the mainstream art establishment.
