Conceptul de „ope ræ totalæ de ce put reticenfli, era cæ RFG trebuie sæ-øi ræscumpere greøeala barbariei culturale naziste. artæ“ (Gesamtkunstwerk) a fost transformat într-o formulæ radical-indivi dualistæ, care prin elim- Øi anume printr-o expoziflie internaflionalæ care sæ aibæ loc o datæ la patru ani, iar mai tîr ziu inarea opozifliilor Est-Vest øi individ-colectiv, s-a dovedit a fi deopotrivæ regresiv-romanti- o datæ la cinci ani. S-a dovedit a fi fost de bun augur faptul cæ „arta degeneratæ“ a fost con - cistæ øi eficientæ politic: „Atracflia spre opera totalæ de artæ este elanul tita nic întru materia li zarea dam natæ oficial øi colecflionatæ în secret de cætre Göring. Mai mult, era foarte bine venitæ paradisului terestru“, spunea Szeemann. Noul Parsifal se numea Joseph Beuys. Acesta øi- oca zia de a se oferi în sfîrøit o replicæ, prin gloria propriei istorii a artei, expresionismului a inaugurat la Kassel un „Birou pentru Democraflia Directæ“, unde aveau loc în fiecare zi abstract american, care ajunsese în Germania o datæ cu Coca-Cola. Nu putea exista nici discuflii øi evenimente pînæ la epuizare. Marcel Broodthaers øi-a construit „Muzeul de Artæ un fel de îndoialæ cæ tot ceea ce fusese damnat de cætre naziøti apærea într-o luminæ stræ - lucitoare øi inocentæ în culisele democrafliei. Înainte de a exista vreun cuvânt pentru a de - sem na acest fenomen, Bode îl folosea deja: culturalismul. Acesta se referea deopotrivæ la despægubirea artiøtilor „degenerafli“ øi la îngenuncherea în fafla expresionismului abstract. Marøul victorios al abstracflionismului în Europa postbelicæ a aliaflilor a fost o consecinflæ a unei duble doctrine a conciliafliei, ceea ce øtia øi Bode. Totuøi, prin argumentele sale de politicæ artisticæ, el susflinea cæ abstracflionismul trage în - væ flæmintele din fascism, cu toate cæ øtia exact cæ nu existase niciodatæ o prelucrare criticæ a „artei degenerate“. Faptul cæ CIA era implicatæ este azi o certitudine. Protagoniøtii expresionismului abstract au fost suspectafli iniflial – øi nu doar de cætre McCarthy – de comunism. Nici mæcar pe ne - drept, cæci Barnett Newman se considera continuator al lui Kropotkin, iar Jackson Pollock continuator al muraliøtilor mexicani. Alfred Barr, pe atunci director la Museum of Modern Art, dat de înfleles CIA cæ prin abstracflionism Ræzboiul Rece se înarmeazæ. Prin turneul euro- pean din 1958 al expresionismului abstract, cofinanflat de CIA, avînd ca traseu oraøele Basel, Milano, Berlin, Amsterdam, Bruxelles øi Londra, s-a impus hegemonia în artæ øi supremaflia economicæ a Statelor Unite pe piafla de artæ, existente øi azi. Dacæ expresionismul abstract a suportat vreo consecinflæ a fascismului, atunci este vorba de una mercantilæ. Modernismul, dupæ cum susfline Serge Guilbaut în cartea sa How New York Stole the Idea of Modern Art [Cum a furat New York-ul ideea artei moderne], a fost redefinit în ansam- blu ca o metaforæ pentru libertate, umanism øi de mo craflie. Organizatorul de expoziflii Christos M. Joachimides, de la Berlin, o spune, întru totul în spiritul lui Bode, în felul urmætor: „Cel care – în mod paradoxal – a salvat modernismul a fost Hitler. Condamnîndu-l, i-a permis sæ devinæ martir. Cel care inifliase distrugerea moder nismului i-a pregætit terenul în a doua jumætate a secolului pentru un marø victorios unic în istoria culturii dupæ Contrareformæ“.

Heute vor einem Jahr wurde noch heftig an dieser immer noch bedeutendsten Ausstellung gearbeitet. In der Binding-Brauerei war fast noch gar nichts gehängt/aufgebaut, weil sich wegen der ungeklär- ten Frage, wer den Umbau der Brauerei in ein Museum der 100 Tage bezahlen soll, alles sehr verzögert hatte. Aber Okwui Enwezor, der künstlerische Leiter der D11, hatte einen genauen Plan für seinen White Cube, den er dann auch durchgesetzt hat.

  • Is Documenta a Decolonising Force?
    Journal of Historical Archaeology & Anthropological Sciences Review Article Open Access Is documenta a decolonising force? Abstract Volume 3 Issue 3 - 2018 As one of the most important contemporary art mega-projects in the world, the Erzsébet Tatai Documenta of Kassel is particularly suitable for examining the changes that have Art historian, Senior Research Fellow, Hungarian Academy of taken place in art and in the way it is presented in the artistic field. Back in 1955, Sciences, Hungary political motivations played a part in the Documenta’s founding, but it was only in 1992, during its ninth edition edition, that Jan Hoet first criticised the hegemony of Correspondence: Erzsébet Tatai, Art historian, Senior European and North American art (at the time, only 7% of the featured artists were Research Fellow, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Hungary, from Africa, Asia and Oceania). And it was not until 1997 that, under the artistic Email [email protected] directorship of Catherine David, this criticism were treated theoretically in the form of lectures. The first Documenta that can be regarded as postcolonial was held in 2002, Received: February 26, 2018 | Published: May 16, 2018 with Enwezor taking charge as artistic director. In my paper, I will examine the shifts that have occurred in the way global art is represented in Kassel from Documenta 11, when the postcolonial discourse finally came to the fore, until the present day (Documenta 14). The questions I touch upon are whether there has been a strengthening of postcolonial representation; whether there is evidence of cultural decolonisation as cultural colonisation is dismantled that is, as postcolonial theories are put into practice; whether or not a decolonisation of art has taken place during the Documenta exhibitions; and whether there has been a change in the postcolonialist content of art.

De documenta in Kassel is een van de oudste internationale tentoonstellingen, naast de biënnale in Venetië. De documenta werd lange tijd gezien als het gezicht van de hedendaagse kunst. 1 Tegenwoordig verdwijnt deze status steeds meer onder andere door de opkomst van musea voor hedendaagse en moderne kunst die zich veelal richten op een internationaal publiek. De documenta is niet langer uniek in haar concept als internationale thematische tentoonstelling. Waar documenta 1-6 vooral gericht was op het reflecteren en signaleren van tendensen binnen de kunstwereld, worden documenta 7,8 en IX vooral gezien als samenvattend van vroegere ontwikkelingen. Een breekpunt ontstond er tijdens documenta X.2 Tijdens deze documenta in 1997 werd duidelijk dat de documenta niet langer alleen westerse kunst tentoonstelde.

[email protected] Abstract This article aims to analyze recent artistic proposals that work with categories such as post coloniality and decoloniality. The present research analyzes the institutional places and platforms of diffusion of this recent production, a dynamic process that is creating new cultural manifestations, in several geographies, with interest to question the remaining of the cultural submission, starting from a work of interpretation and visibility based on mechanisms linked to politics and resistance. We will seek a transnational dialogue, based on the public programs of documenta 14 and the São Paulo Museum of Art (MASP), highlighting the commitment that these programs have in evidencing the emergence of new narratives starting from the booming of themes that involve histories, establishing the possibility of creating debates in which the remnants of colonial structures that are sometimes questioned, sometimes evidenced. Such programs can be seen as a set of elements that help to reflect on a new political, social and global order. Keywords:

  • 101 Einleitung Der Vorliegende Beitrag* Thematisiert Eine Reihe
    LITERATUR ALS THEMENFELD UND EXPONAT FRIEDHELM SCHARF LITERATUR ALS THEMENFELD UND EXPONAT DER DOCUMENTA-GESCHICHTE Einleitung Der vorliegende Beitrag* thematisiert eine Reihe von Beispielen, mit denen das Verhältnis von Werken der Literatur (Belletristik, Lyrik, Thea- ter) zu Werken der Bildenden Kunst1 im modernen bzw. zeitgenössi- schen Ausstellungskontext historisch beschrieben werden soll. Die Ge- schichte der documenta bietet sich hierfür nicht nur aufgrund der Mate- rialfülle an, welche natürlich keinesfalls auszuschöpfen ist: mit jenen documenta-Exponaten, welche belletristische, lyrische, dramatische oder philosophische Texte visualisiert haben, ließe sich bedenkenlos ein Literaturmuseum von beachtlichem Ausmaß bestücken, obgleich keine der bisherigen elf documenta-Ausstellungen Literatur je zu ihrem eigent- lichen Leitthema gemacht hat. Die klassisch-humanistische Gedanken- figur von „ut pictura poesis“2, die in der frühen Moderne eher abge- lehnt oder verdrängt wurde, hat aber in den letzten 50 Jahren in der Abfolge unterschiedlicher Ausstellungskonzeptionen der documenta eine erstaunliche Wandlungs- und damit Überlebensfähigkeit bewiesen. Dies war insbesondere immer dann der Fall, wenn Vermittlungs- und Inter- pretationskonzepte der zeitgenössischen Kunst einen „Hang zum Ge- samtkunstwerk“ besaßen oder zumindest einen betont interdisziplinä- ren Ansatz postulierten. Die hier verwendeten Beispiele sollen somit auch Aufschluss darüber geben, inwiefern sich die Thematisierung von Literatur auf Kunstausstellungen in kuratorische

  • Documenta11 / 08.06. – 15.09.2002, Kassel Binding-Brauerei,Ausstellungsarchitektur Kühnmalvezzi: Freienfoyerim
    Documenta11 / 08.06. – 15.09.2002, Kassel Binding-Brauerei,Ausstellungsarchitektur KühnMalvezzi: FreienFoyerim Das kuratorische Konzept der Documenta11 ist stärker als bei anderen documenta-Ausstellungen mit der Ausstellungsarchitektur verbunden. Indem die Plattform 5 als Ausstellung in Kassel insbesondere in der ehemaligen Binding-Brauerei als eine spezifische Raumanordnung mit wesentlichen Eigenschaften des westlich-traditionellen White Cube realisiert wurde, manifestierte sich eine kuratorische Setzung, die Moderne und hegemoniale Machtverhältnisse zueinander in Bezug setzt. Der Raum der Documenta11 kennzeichnet zugleich den mentalen Ausgangspunkt für einen neu zu überdenkenden, postkolonialen Diskurs in internatio- naler zeitgenössischer Kunst mit dem Wissen um die Struktur des ’Westernism’ (Okwui Enwezor). Inhaltliche Konzentration und formale Klarheit innerhalb der Ausstellungsräume, die eine deutliche Trennung zwischen Außen und Innen zur Folge hatten, definierten die Ausstellung als ’Handlungszone’, in der ein ’Beziehungsge- flecht der Macht’ (Ute Meta Bauer) untersucht wurde. Die Zusammenarbeit zwischen dem KuratorInnenteam um Okwui Enwezor und den AusstellungsarchitektInnen Kühn Malvezzi führte in der Binding-Brauerei zum Konzept des Stadtmodells mit Durchgängen, Plätzen, Nebenstraßen, Außen- und Innenbereichen. Statt eines Master- plans entwickelten die ArchitektInnen eine Raumstruktur, deren Regelwerke Übersicht und Entscheidungsfreiheit bot – für die kuratorische Arbeit, aber auch für die BesucherInnen der Ausstellung. 099

  • Documenta 11 As Exemplar for Transcultural Curating: a Critical Analysis
    DOCUMENTA 11 AS EXEMPLAR FOR TRANSCULTURAL CURATING: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS by LEONÉ ANETTE VAN NIEKERK Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree PhD (Visual Studies) in the FACULTY OF HUMANITIES UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA April 2007 Supervisor: Dr Amanda du Preez Co-supervisor: Dr Elfriede Dreyer SUMMARY Title of thesis: DOCUMENTA 11 AS EXEMPLAR FOR TRANSCULTURAL CURATING: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS. Name of student: Leoné Anette van Niekerk Supervisor: Dr Amanda du Preez Co-supervisor: Dr Elfriede Dreyer Department of Visual Arts Degree: PhD (Visual Studies) KEY TERMS: Artistic agency, art market, curatorship, Documenta, globalisation discourse, identity politics, mega-exhibitions, multiculturalism, pluralism, postcolonial theory, public spheres,Third Cinema, transculturality. This study investigates to what extent the curatorial project of Documenta 11 offered an operative cultural concept beyond multiculturality by favouring a transcultural approach to difference in the global sphere. It questions whether the central strategy employed – of postcoloniality as tactical manoeuvre to expand both the public and aesthetic spheres in order to create the conditions for an ethical engagement with difference – could facilitate a workable exemplar for showing art from different production sites, yet resist levelling of differences for an ever-expanding global art market. Proceeding from the postcolonial institutional critique envisioned by the artistic director, Okwui Enwezor, this study engages critically with the notion of opening-out Documenta in terms of inclusivity and equality of representation. It is argued that while the proposed postcolonial reinvigoration of overlapping public spheres held the promise of heterogeneous participation and minimised the formation of hegemonies, the expansion-project of Documenta 11 could on another level be interpreted to function as a globalising instrument usurping previously unexplored territories and discover marketable ‘others’ for a neocolonial cultural marketplace.

When dOCUMENTA (13) closed on September 16, 2012, the German evening news show Tagesthemen reported that the exhibition had attracted around 860,000 visitors, a record for this Kassel-based quinquennial series. Among the visitors were 12,500 journalists whose reviews of the exhibition spurred even more visits both on- site and online. dOCUMENTA (13) also had a record number of first-time attendees, with almost one-third of the total visitors being under the age of thirty, another all- time high. The exhibition could also boast of 188 participating artists and art collectives, and—in addition to venues in Kabul and Bamiyan, in Alexandria and Cairo, and at The Banff Center in Alberta, Canada—of 36 sites in Kassel. 1 The formatting of official titles for the documenta series varies from event to event. In this article, simplified titles have been used for most of the previous documenta shows (e.g., Documenta 2, Documenta 3, Documenta 12), and the official titles, according to the original posters of the respective shows, have been listed in an appendix. There are two exceptions to this practice of simplifying titles: the thirteenth documenta is referred to by its official title “dOCUMENTA (13),” since it is the focus of this article; and the first documenta is referred to as “documenta,” since its title was originally unnumbered.—Ed.
