  • Bring the World to Australia: the John Kaldor Family Collection
    Art Appreciation Lecture Series 2016 Collectors & Collections: classical to contemporary Bring the world to Australia: The John Kaldor Family Collection Wayne Tunnicliffe 10/11 August 2016 Lecture summary: In 2011 the John Kaldor Family Gallery opened at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in conjunction with the announcement of an extraordinary gift of international art dating from the 1960s until now, the most important and most valuable public gift of art in Australian history. The collection was transformative - together with the AGNSW’s existing collection it has enabled an exceptional representation of international American and European art of the late 20th century in Sydney. John Kaldor is now in his sixth decade of collecting avant-garde art and this lecture will explore how from his base in Sydney he engaged with some of the most advanced international artists and art movements of the late 20th century and how building his collection lead to his staging the internationally known Kaldor Public Art Projects. This lecture will also look at how John Kaldor lived with his art collection, before he and his family gave it all away. Slide list: All works are part of the John Kaldor Family Collection at the Art Gallery of New South Wales unless otherwise stated. 1.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Honors College Theses by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@Pace. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract The Fluxus movement of the 1960s and early 1970s laid the groundwork for future female artists and performance art as a medium. However, throughout my research, I have found that while there is evidence that female artists played an important role in this art movement, they were often not written about or credited for their contributions. Literature on the subject is also quite limited. Many books and journals only mention the more prominent female artists of Fluxus, leaving the lesser-known female artists difficult to research. The lack of scholarly discussion has led to the inaccurate documentation of the development of Fluxus art and how it influenced later movements. Additionally, the absence of research suggests that female artists’ work was less important and, consequently, keeps their efforts and achievements unknown. It can be demonstrated that works of art created by little-known female artists later influenced more prominent artists, but the original works have gone unacknowledged.

Photographer unknown. L 07 Chapter 7.qxd 12/8/2006 2:46 PM Page 193 7. Artists’ Collectives Mostly in New York, 1975–2000 ALAN W. MOORE The question of collectivism in recent art is a broad one. Artists’ groups are an intimate part of postmodern artistic production in the visual arts, and their presence informs a wide spectrum of issues including modes of artistic practice, the exhibition and sales system, publicity and criticism, even the styles and subjects of art making. Groups of all kinds, collectives, collaborations, and organizations cut across the landscape of the art world. These groups are largely autonomous organizations of artistic labor that, along with the markets and institutions of capital expressed through galleries and museums, comprise and direct art. The presence of artistic collectives is not primarily a question of ideology; it is the expression of artistic labor itself. The practical requirements of artistic production and exhibition, as well as the education that usually precedes active careers, continuously involves some or a lot of collective work. The worldwide rise in the number of self- identiWed artist collectives in recent years reXects a change in patterns of artistic labor, both in the general economy (that is, artistic work for com- mercial media) and within the special economy of contemporary art.

  • (Veneklasen/Werner) Is Pleased to Present Shakers & Movers, a Group Exhibition, Curated by Birte Kleemann, Which Explores
    VW (VeneKlasen/Werner) is pleased to present Shakers & Movers, a group exhibition, curated by Birte Kleemann, which explores performance art and actions within the context of the political situation in Germany during the 1960s and 1970s. Shakers & Movers includes works by Mary Bauermeister, Joseph Beuys, Sylvano Bussotti, James Lee Byars, John Cage, VALIE EXPORT, Jürgen Klauke, Yoko Ono, Nam June Paik, Karlheinz Stockhausen and Ulay. The post-World War II period saw the development of new approaches to artistic expression and political activism. The new generation of artists emerging in West Germany experimented with performance and collaboration and incorporated media from beyond the traditional boundaries of studio practice, such as sound and film. One consequence of this new approach was an increasing awareness of the body as a tool both for expression and criticism within the public realm. A new identity of the artist is asserted in which the self is measured in the interaction with the other, both mirroring and questioning societal norms. Within the context of social and political developments in the young democratic Germany, and against the backdrop of a lingering Cold War, the exploration of new territories in art, literature, theater and music are a form of Brechtian catharsis.Shakers & Movers presents a brief and selected history of the performances and actions triggered by renewed social awareness in an era of lost innocence. Shakers & Movers takes as its starting point the beginnings of the Fluxus movement and the multimedia “happenings” created at Mary Bauermeister’s studio, the most important of these being the Originale, composed by Karlheinz Stockhausen.

  • Concerto for the Universal Algorithm Paik | Moorman | Youngblood | Flusser
    Musicologica Brunensia 52 / 2017 / 1 DOI: 10.5817/MB2017–1-13 Concerto for the Universal Algorithm Paik | Moorman | Youngblood | Flusser Louis Armand / [email protected] Centre for Critical and Cultural Theory, Philosophy Faculty, Charles University, Prague, CZ Abstract This paper examines the “relationship” between sound/image/performance in the collabora- tive work of Nam June Paik and Charlotte Moorman, within the framework of Paik’s “experi- mental TV,” Gene Youngblood’s “expanded cinema”, and the evolution of the “technical image” envisaged by Vilém Flusser (and augmented by recent developments in “accelerationism”). Keywords accelerationism, autopoiesis, Charlotte Moorman, cybernetics, Edgar Varèse, expanded cinema, Gene Youngblood, intermedia, John Cage, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Marshall McLuhan, Nam June Paik, posthumanism, synaesthetic video, Vilém Flusser, Wolf Vostell 139 Louis Armand Concerto for the Universal Algorithm Paik | Moorman | Youngblood | Flusser Handing down his verdict in the case against Charlotte Moorman for “indecent ex- posure” on May 13, 1967, Judge Milton Shalleck, in finding her guilty, suggested that Spanish cellist and renowned interpreter of Bach, Pablo Casals, would never “have be- come as great if he had performed naked from the waist down.”1 Reporting on the case, Russell Baker in the Chicago Tribune noted that the court had thereby given credence to the theory that the artist must dress in the costume of his trade – an implicit gender- ing of both “serious music” and the figure of the “artist” characteristic of the times. Moorman’s crime, for which she was dubbed on the front pages of the nation’s tabloid press “The Topless Cellist,” was to have performed the second movement of Nam June Paik’s Opera Sextronique on 9 February, 1969, at Jonas Mekas’s Film-Maker’s Cinemate- que in New York, topless above a black skirt.
