"After several years of art derived in face and in spirit from the media explosion and the technological revolution, many artists now seem to be literally turning to the elements -- air, earth, water, and fire -- as their source of inspiration. One day soon it may become a social necessity to exchange our traditionally sacred object art for a more conceptual, less spatial art-as-environment. In preparation for that day artists like those represented in Art Art exhibition are fully exploiting our current technology in order create new art forms benefitting that future..." -- from Peter Selz's introduction.

Texts by curators James Monte and Marcia Tucker. "The radical nature of many works in this exhibition depends less on the fact that new materials are being used by the artists than the fact that the acts of conceiving and placing the pieces take precedence over the object qualities of the works..." -- from James Monte's catalogue essay. "Our approach to works of art has been based on the assumptions about the nature of art. One of these assumptions has been that art creates order from chaos of experience; it is presumed that our understanding of a work of art is equivalent to our grasp of the formal or conceptual order inherent in it. The present exhibition challenges this supposition. We are offered an art that presents itself as disordered, chaotic, or anarchic..." -- from Marcia Tucker's catalogue essay.

Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this is indicated in the thesis. i Tales from Studio International Magazine: Peter Townsend’s editorial papers, 1965-1975 When Peter Townsend was appointed editor of Studio International in November 1965 it was the longest running British art magazine, founded 1893 as The Studio by Charles Holme with editor Gleeson White. Townsend’s predecessor, GS Whittet adopted the additional International in 1964, devised to stimulate advertising. The change facilitated Townsend’s reinvention of the radical policies of its founder as a magazine for artists with an international outlooK. His decision to appoint an International Advisory Committee as well as a London based Advisory Board show this commitment. Townsend’s editorial in January 1966 declares the magazine’s aim, ‘not to ape’ its ancestor, but ‘rediscover its liveliness.’ He emphasised magazine’s geographical position, poised between Europe and the US, susceptible to the influences of both and wholly committed to neither, it would be alert to what the artists themselves wanted. Townsend’s policy pioneered the magazine’s presentation of new experimental practices and art-for-the-page as well as the magazine as an alternative exhibition site and specially designed artist’s covers. The thesis gives centre stage to a British perspective on international and transatlantic dialogues from 1965-1975, presenting case studies to show the importance of the magazine’s influence achieved through Townsend’s policy of devolving responsibility to artists and Key assistant editors, Charles Harrison, John McEwen, and contributing editor Barbara Reise.

  • Photography’S Apparatus and the Unrepresentable
    THE WRITING OF LIGHT: PHOTOGRAPHY’S APPARATUS AND THE UNREPRESENTABLE By David M.C. Miller BFA, Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, 1991 A THESIS ESSAY SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF APPLIED ARTS in Art EMILY CARR UNIVERSITY OF ART + DESIGN 2012 © David M.C. Miller, 2012 Abstract This thesis situates aspects of my recent practice by examining photography’s apparatus in relation to the idea of the unrepresentable. In art, awakening the present to the past or memorializing the dead evokes a dense web of cultural practices, aesthetic conventions and social agreements. Photography is unique among them. The act of photography is one of apprehension, for it grasps what is given spatially and temporally then isolates both space and time from a continuum. This rupture caused in space- time is one of photography's most evocative and least understood effects. Spatial immediacy and temporal anteriority, the here-now and the has-been are, in a photograph, presented simultaneously. I explore this rupture in relation to the dialectic between presence and absence, and to certain subjects that exceed photography. My own works propose to give form to delicate and nuanced questions concerning invisible subjects or subjects that exceed representation. I explore how the photograph is implicated in its (self) presentation. How can the photographic reflect its own condition while simultaneously representing subjects other than itself? I situate my work alongside early and contemporary photographic works, “zero-degree” painting and examples from conceptual photography and consider these questions as a weaving together of the relations in my artwork: what is the photographic? What exceeds the photographic as the unrepresentable? 2 Table of Contents Abstract .......................................................................................................................................

This perspective has reigned the arts and art criticism for more than a century. The author of this challenging and erudite essay shows how the idea of progress in the arts came up A Philosophical Response to the End of the Avant-Garde and he describes the enormous retorical impact of progressive concepts. After the end of the avant-garde the idea of progress in the arts collapsed and soon philosophers like Arthur Danto Doorman Maarten proclaimed the end of art. Doorman investigates the crippling effects of postmodernism on the arts and proposes a new form of progress to understand contemporary art. Its history can still be seen as a process of accumulation: works of art comment on each other, enriching each other’s meanings. These complex interrelationships lead to progress in both the sensibility of the observer and the significance of the works of art. Art in Progress Maarten Doorman is an In the nineteenth century, the history of painting associate professor of was regarded as the paradigm of a progressive under- philosophy at the taking, and evidence that historical progress is a University of Maastricht possible ideal everywhere else.
