9 October 2012 9 October 2012 Mel Bochner: If the Colour Changes 12 October – 30 December 2012, Galleries 1, 8 & Victor Petitgas Gallery (Gallery 9) The Whitechapel Gallery presents the first major British survey show of New York artist Mel Bochner, one of the founding figures of conceptual art. The exhibition traces nearly 50 years of Bochner’s work, from the late 1960s to today, showing his fascination with language and colour. It will include a vast 30 metre-wide painting, installations filling the galleries and large works painted directly onto the walls. The exhibition presents his recent ‘Thesaurus’ paintings, colourful word chains which descend from phrases such as ‘top dog’ and ‘king of the hill’ into more macho mantras such as ‘rule with an iron hand’. Mel Bochner is part of a generation of New York artists who emerged in the 1960s including Sol LeWitt, Eva Hesse and Robert Smithson. Harvard University art historian Benjamin Buchloh has described Bochner’s first exhibition in 1966 as ‘probably the first truly conceptual exhibition’. At that time when painting seemed outmoded, he was a pioneer in introducing language into visual art. On entering Gallery 1 visitors will first see the huge painting Blah, Blah, Blah (2011), made specially for this show and executed in thick oil paint on black velvet, setting the scene for the exhibition’s exploration of communication and meaning in language. Across the floor of Gallery 1 blue squares are spray-painted directly onto newspapers, titled Theory of Painting (1970). Around the walls are Bochner’s giant crumpled photographs in lurid colours. Their shapes have been described by The New Yorker as ‘like road maps found stuffed in the glove compartment’. The staircase from Gallery 1 is animated by one of Bochner’s ‘Measurement’ pieces. Lines of 48 inches are randomly scattered across the wall, alluding to Marcel Duchamp’s last painting Nude Descending a Staircase . At the top of the stairs one of Bochner’s guiding principles, No Thought Exists Without A Sustaining Support (1970), is chalked directly on the wall, as if on a dripping blackboard. Gallery 9 will be filled with the colourful 1977 wall painting Two Planar Arcs and on the floor is a work from the artist’s ‘Theory of Sculpture’ series, made in vivid chunks of raw glass. Gallery 8 is devoted to Bochner’s vast canvas Event Horizon (1998) and his latest ‘Thesaurus’ paintings. These include Amazing! (2011) which features a st 21 century language: from ‘awesome!’ and ‘groovy!’ to ‘gnarly!’ and ‘omg!’. As the eye reads the text, letters and words advance or recede according to the shade Bochner has painted them. The experience suddenly becomes about colour itself, while their humour reveals a subtle politics. Notes for Editors • Mel Bochner was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, US, in 1940. He is one of a generation of American artists coming of age in the 1960s that questioned the primacy of painting as medium, and the heroic grandeur of Abstract Expressionist painters such as Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollock. He studied at the Carnegie Institute of Technology where he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1962. In 1964 he moved to New York City. Bochner taught at the School of Visual Arts in New York in the late 1960s and in 1979 was appointed to the Yale University School of Art faculty as a senior critic in painting and printmaking and later appointed Professor (Adjunct) in 2001. He has exhibited widely in the United States and Europe, most recently including major solo exhibitions at the National Gallery Washington D.C. (2011); Domaine de Kerguéhennec, centre d’art contemporain, Bignan, France (2007), the Art Institute of Chicago (2006), and the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh (2002). His work is held in the collections of MoMA, New York, the Whitney Museum of American Art, LACMA, Los Angeles, and the Musée National d’Art Moderne, Paris. He lives and works in New York. • Mel Bochner is organised by the Whitechapel Gallery, in collaboration with the Haus der Kunst, Munich, Germany, where it will be shown from 1 March – 16 June 2013 • and Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Serralves, Porto, Portugal (12 July – 13 October 2013). The exhibition is curated by Achim Borchardt-Hume, Chief Curator, Whitechapel Gallery, in collaboration with Ulrich Wilmes, Chief Curator, Haus der Kunst, and João Fernandes, Director, Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Serralves. • Mel Bochner is accompanied by a catalogue published by Ridinghouse including essays by each of the three exhibition curators. Achim Borchardt-Hume explores colour in Bochner’s recent work; Ulrich Wilmes looks at Bochner’s relationship to the historic conventions of painting and João Fernandes, Director, Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Serralves, Porto, examines the role of language. Two additional contributors, Briony Fer, Professor of Art History, UCL and Mark Godfrey, Curator, Tate consider the idea of ‘corruption’ in Bochner’s work and provide a case study by focusing on Theory of Sculpture . The catalogue is fully-illustrated with a plates section and also contains a selection of key texts by the artist and archival material. Special exhibition price: £19.95 (RRP £24.95) • Mel Bochner is represented by Peter Freeman, Inc., New York; Two Palms Press, New York; Marc Selwyn Fine Art, Los Angeles; Galerie Nelson Freeman, Paris, Galeria il Gabbiano, Rome and Fraenkel Gallery, San Francisco.

  • Catalogue Babble Mel Bochner
    BABBEL BY MEL BOCHNER SYBARIS COLLECTION Mel Bochner (Pittsburgh, 1940) Mel Bochner is one of the most important living American conceptual artists of today. Related to Joseph Kosuth and Bruce Nauman, his work has been exhibited in prestigious museums such as the Tate Modern in London or the MoMA in New York. Bochner’s pieces fuse interests in design, written language, and art to push the boundaries of conceptual art. His interests are geometry, color, and length; his art is transgressive and experimental. In his own words: “My feeling was that there were ways of extending, or reinventing visual experience, but that it was very important that it remain visual […] The viewer should enter the idea through a visual or phenomenological experience rather than simply reading it.” New York artist Mel Bochner stands in front of his painting 'Master of the Universe (2010)' at the Whitechapel Gallery PA/independent.co.uk Crazy, 2019 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 127 x 165 cm Silence, 2019 Babble, 2019 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 81 x 52 cm 160 x 120 cm Bozo, 2019 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 109 x 119 cm Chuckle, 2016 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 45 x 76 cm n/a Top Dog, 2019 Eradicate, 2019 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 160 x 90 cm 81 x 52 cm Blah, Blah, Blah, 2019 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 125 x 183 cm HA, HA, HA, 2019 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 51 x 57 cm Fool, 2019 Monotype with collage, engraving and reliefs on hand-painted Twinrocker paper 127 x 167 cm SYBARISCOLLECTION.COM [email protected] +1 (832) 530 3996 +55 (55) 8435 4487 Ig Fb SybarisCollection.

German Art in the Age of Dürer and Cranach UPCOMING EXHIBITIONS Moholy-Nagy: Future Present February 12–June 18, 2017 The first comprehensive retrospective of the work of László Moholy-Nagy (1895–1946) in the United States in nearly 50 years, this long overdue presentation reveals a utopian artist who believed that art could work hand-in-hand with technology for the betterment of humanity. Moholy-Nagy: Future Present examines the career of this pioneering painter, photographer, sculptor, and filmmaker as well as graphic, exhibition, and stage designer, who was also an influential teacher at the Bauhaus, a prolific writer, and later the founder of Chicago’s Institute of Design. The exhibition includes more than 250 works in all media from public and private collections across Europe and the United States, some of which have never before been shown publicly in the U.S. Also on display is a large-scale installation, Room of the Present, a contemporary construction of an exhibition space originally conceived by Moholy-Nagy in 1930. Though never realized during his lifetime, the Room of the Present illustrates Moholy’s belief in the power of images and various means by which to disseminate them—a highly relevant paradigm in today’s constantly shifting and evolving technological world.

  • Marianne Stockebrand Respect Nature Was of the Highest Order
    This talk was first given in the German original in Septem- ber 2011 at the Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, then in its English translation in Marfa on May 12, 2012, and is here pub- lished in a slightly edited version. To speak of “The Whole Judd” is of course an incredible decla- ration and one that can only be justified as a headline. Never- theless, I intend to move beyond the stereotype of the “artist of boxes” in order to outline a more complex figure. Donald Judd was highly productive, and in many diferent areas. He started out as a painter, moved on to three-dimen- sional objects, made prints throughout his life, drew prolifi- cally, wrote exhibition reviews and essays, practiced architec- ture (although he didn’t call himself an architect because he didn’t have a license) and renovated first his own building in New York and subsequently his residence in Marfa, Texas, and finally founded a museum—the Chinati Foundation—also in Marfa. In addition to the completed architectural projects there are a large number of unrealized ones that exist only in the form of sketches and plans. He designed furniture, which he considered part of his architecture. The first pieces were made purely for personal use because nothing suitable was available for purchase in West Texas; later the range of designs was expanded to include tableware, textiles, jewelry, and so on. Finally, Judd also ranched, and in this capacity served as a guardian of the landscape. He purchased large parcels of land not far from Marfa and kept only a small number of cattle because the land had been overgrazed and needed to rest.

  • The Benefit of the Doubt: Regarding the Photographic Conditions of Conceptual Art, 1966-1973
    The Benefit of the Doubt: Regarding the Photographic Conditions of Conceptual Art, 1966-1973 by Heather A. Diack A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Heather A. Diack 2010 The Benefit of the Doubt: Regarding the Photographic Conditions of Conceptual Art, 1966-1973 Heather A. Diack Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Art University of Toronto 2010 Abstract This dissertation offers a reconsideration of the uses of photography under the aegis of Conceptual Art between 1966 and 1973 by analyzing the ways photography challenged epistemological limits, and, despite the claims regarding the medium’s inherent indexicality, emphasized experience over exactitude, and doubt in place of certainty. By focusing on four American practitioners, I argue for the “benefit of the doubt;” in other words, for the value of disbelief and hesitation, marking the reorientation of art at this time towards critical methods which oppose all orthodoxies, including but not limited to formalist dogmas, and instead are committed to the denial of autonomy in favor of understanding meaning as infinitely contingent. The dissertation is divided among four key case studies, including Mel Bochner (n. 1940), Bruce Nauman (n. 1941), Douglas Huebler (1924-1997), and John Baldessari (n. 1931). Each chapter argues for the unique contribution of photography in relation to conceptual art practices, while also situating the projects of these individual practitioners within the broader history of the medium of photography. I explore specifically the concepts of seriality, transparency and theory in Bochner; performance, “worklessness,” and failure in Nauman; portraiture, mapping and impossibility in Huebler; humor, didacticism, choice and chance in Baldessari.

  • Mel Bochner Language Is Not Transparent [Brussels, 2017] 12 Rue Du Grand Cerf September 7 – November 10, 2017 Opening September 8, 6-8Pm
    Mel Bochner Language Is Not Transparent [Brussels, 2017] 12 Rue du Grand Cerf September 7 – November 10, 2017 Opening September 8, 6-8pm Gladstone Gallery is pleased to present Mel Bochner’s first solo show with the gallery and his first exhibition in Brussels for more than 20 years. For this show, Bochner will debut Language Is Not Transparent [Brussels, 2017], a wall piece taking its name from one of the artist’s most seminal works first shown at the Dwan Gallery in 1970. Bochner intends for this new iteration to premiere within Belgium’s bilingual context: translated into Flemish and French for the first time, this version adds new interpretations and layers of complexity to Bochner’s Conceptualist practice. A leading figure of the Conceptual art movement 0f the 1960s and 1970s, Bochner reimagined the wall as a material component, rather than simply a passive surface. Language Is Not Transparent [Brussels, 2017] consists of three black rectangles painted directly onto the wall, reappropriating the Renaissance fresco technique of sinopia. In his decision to work directly on the wall, the artist’s hand is clearly visible, via handwritten text in English, French and Flemish, scribbles of white chalk and uneven brushstrokes leaving drops of black paint that almost hit the floor. Bochner’s immediate and tangible intervention, without mediation of a canvas or frame, fundamentally changed the relationship between art, public space and the viewer. Language also plays a major role in Bochner’s overall artistic practice, and this new version of Language Is Not Transparent exemplifies his idea, as borrowed from philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein and others, that language is understood through a variety of cultural associations and contexts, without one definable interpretation.
