Artists and scientists share a likeminded inquiry: a viewer’s perception using subtle or profound shifts in color, scale, luminosity how we see. Today’s art answers that question in tandem with the expanded and spatial illusion. scientific fields of computer engineering, cybernetics, digital imaging, information processing and photonics. Light / Space / Code reveals the evolution of Light and Space art in the context of emerging technologies over the past half century. The exhibit begins by iden- — Jason Foumberg, Thoma Foundation curator tifying pre-digital methods of systems-style thinking in the work of geometric and Op painters, when radiant pigments and hypnotic compositions inferred the pow- er of light. Then, light sculpture introduces the medium of light as an expression of electronic tools. Finally, software-generated visualizations highlight advanced work in spatial imaging and cyberspace animation. Several kinetic and inter- active works extend the reach of art into the real space of viewer participation. A key sub-plot of Light / Space / Code concerns the natural world and its ecol- ogy. Since the Light and Space movement is an outgrowth of a larger environ- mental art movement (i.e., Earthworks), and its materials are directly drawn from natural phenomena, Light and Space artists address the contemporary conditions of organisms and their habitation systems on this planet.

  • The Role and the Nature of Repetition in Jasper Johns's Paintings in The
    The Role and the Nature of Repetition in Jasper Johns’s Paintings in the Context of Postwar American Art by Ela Krieger A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Art History Approved Dissertation Committee Prof. Dr. Isabel Wünsche Jacobs University Bremen Prof. Dr. Paul Crowther Alma Mater Europaea Ljubljana Dr. Julia Timpe Jacobs University Bremen Date of Defense: 5 June 2019 Social Sciences and Humanities Abstract Abstract From the beginning of his artistic career, American artist Jasper Johns (b. 1930) has used various repetitive means in his paintings. Their significance in his work has not been sufficiently discussed; hence this thesis is an exploration of the role and the nature of repetition in Johns’s paintings, which is essential to better understand his artistic production. Following a thorough review of his paintings, it is possible to broadly classify his use of repetition into three types: repeating images and gestures, using the logic of printing, and quoting and returning to past artists. I examine each of these in relation to three major art theory elements: abstraction, autonomy, and originality. When Johns repeats images and gestures, he also reconsiders abstraction in painting; using the logic of printing enables him to follow the logic of another medium and to challenge the autonomy of painting; by quoting other artists, Johns is reexamining originality in painting. These types of repetition are distinct in their features but complementary in their mission to expand the boundaries of painting. The proposed classification system enables a better understanding of the role and the nature of repetition in the specific case of Johns’s paintings, and it enriches our understanding of the use of repetition and its perception in art in general.

    Catastrophe (Arcadian Retreat) By Roni Feinstein, July 2013 Part of the Rauschenberg Research Project Cite as: Roni Feinstein, “Catastrophe (Arcadian Retreat),” Rauschenberg Research Project, July 2013. San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, http://www.sfmoma.org/ artwork/97.827/essay/catastrophe-arcadian-retreat/. 1 In the Arcadian Retreat series, of which Catastrophe (Arcadian Retreat) (1996) is a part, Robert Rauschenberg combined images of the ancient and modern worlds in paintings that blend antiquated techniques of picture making such as fresco painting with the state-of-the-art technologies of digital printing. These majestic and physically weighty works exemplify his ongoing efforts to navigate uncharted creative territory and experiment with previously unexplored processes and materials. As this essay will demonstrate, both impulses were intimately connected with Rauschenberg’s artistic and personal history. 2 From 1962 until the early 1990s, the silkscreen process was the means by which Rauschenberg transferred photographic images onto his large-scale canvases. This method involved the use of commercially prepared screens imprinted with images he had found in mass-media sources. Over the course of three decades the artist created dozens of series in which he combined silkscreened images on any number of surfaces, among them canvas, paper, fabric, and a range of metals, including copper, brass, bronze, and aluminum.1 Sometime in 1991 Rauschenberg became aware of large-format color inkjet printers, which employ continuous, high-pressure sprays of ink to push pigment deeply into the paper, producing even, dot-free color prints.2 He quickly began 1.
