  • Changing the Game Museum Research and the Politics of Inclusivity Margriet Schavemaker
    Changing the Game Museum Research and the Politics of Inclusivity Margriet Schavemaker First published in The Curatorial in Parallax, edited by Kim Seong-Eun, Choi Jina, and Song Sujong (Seoul: National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA), 2018), 89–105. Introduction Over the past two decades, the notion of a “discursive turn” has been shaping museum research all over the world. Instead of focusing on exhibitions as key “output,” museums now seem bent upon transforming themselves into networked organizations, which entails (co-)conducting research of all possible shapes and forms. In the theoretical discourse surrounding the aforementioned discursive turn, one finds a strong focus on institutional critique and antagonism, bringing counter-voices inside the museum. The museum criticizing itself from within has been a familiar description of the changes that were taking place. However, one might also argue that despite their potential for criticality and depth, these practices ultimately remained somewhat unchallenging and homogenous when it comes to both audience and outreach. Currently, a more radical turn towards diversity and inclusivity seems to be shaping our field. Not only in museums but across all of our institutions and social interactions, new and suppressed voices are demanding access, fundamental research, a rewriting of conventional narratives, and the deconstruction of the hegemonic powers that be. Is now the time when museums will actually begin to open up and museum research will finally liberate itself from the constraints of “preaching to the choir”? 1/14 In this essay, I will discuss some core programs and programmatic trajectories that have been developed by the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, firstly in order to bridge the gap between the museum and the academic world (including peers and professionals), and secondly to implement a more radical and self-critical opening up of the Fig.

Annick Herbert: It resulted from a conversation with director Rudi Fuchs. We were on good terms with him and we visited all of his exhibitions at the Van Abbemuseum. Moreover, several of our works were kept in his museum at that time, so he knew our collection very well. When Rudi proposed the exhibition, he put forward the idea of combining our works with pieces from his collection, which would be chosen by us. It was an extraordinary experience for us. Rudi also came up Jannis Kounellis, Fuochi, 1971 / Bruce Nauman, One Hundred Live and with the title for the exhibition, L’Architecte est absent, Die, 1983 / Gerhard Richter, 1024 Farben in 4 Permutationen, 1973. a sentence borrowed from the Marcel Broodthaers text Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, 1984 Le Corbeau et le Renard. The title very clearly underscored the importance of a neutral, anonymous exhibition space. As a subtitle he added répertoire, which were constraints on our freedom, and Rudi made us referred to the fact that when the exhibition took place include his Baselitz, a work we didn’t like at all.

  • ONE WALL, ONE WORK Robert Barry September 16
    ONE WALL, ONE WORK Robert Barry September 16 - November 4, 2016 In the latest edition of our ongoing series, One Wall, One Work, Robert Barry has created a new etched mirror diptych – black glass mirror - a 30 inch square juxtaposed with a 30 inch circle, each with text that varies in orientation. Each panel consists of complete words, incomplete words (as they would extend over the edges of the mirror), specific words (e.g. “desire”) and open-ended words (e.g. “almost”). Partly a formal study in comparison (square versus circle, reflective (background) versus opaque (etched text), specific versus general, this work also provides the space among these relationships so as to create a grey space where answers and meanings are not hard, fast or fully defined, but where one can question strict logic and allow for poetic feeling, meaning and opportunity. In terms of the artist's history, Robert Barry’s first solo museum exhibition was in 1971 at The Tate in London and over the years he has proceeded to have solo exhibitions at the Stedelijk in Amsterdam, the Folkwangmuseum Essen in Germany, the former Museum of Conceptual Art in San Francisco, the Musée St. Pierre, Art Contemporain in Lyon, France, the Haags Gemeentemuseum in Den Haag, Netherlands, the Dum Umeni Brno in the Czech Republic, and the Kunsthalle Nurnberg among others. Group exhibitions with Barry's work have taken place at the Guggenheim Museum in New York, Seattle Art Museum, Jewish Museum, Kyoto Museum of Fine Arts, Museum of Modern Art in New York, among hundreds of others.

  • Kabakov, Utopia and Reality a Meeting of Two Russian Giants 01.12.2012 – 28.04.2013
    Press release November 2012 Press information: b General information exhibition b Short biography Lissitzky and Kabakov b Director Charles Esche about Lissitzky – Kabakov General information exhibition Lissitzky – Kabakov, Utopia and Reality A meeting of two Russian giants 01.12.2012 – 28.04.2013 The Van Abbemuseum asked the artists Ilya (1933) and Emilia (1945) Kabakov to organise an exhibition of their work together with that of El Lissitzky (1890-1941), as guest curators. For the Lissitzky – Kabakov exhibition they made an extensive selection from their own work and that of Lissitzky. It is the first time that the oeuvres of these famous 20th-century Russian artists are being presented together. Bringing together Lissitzky and the Kabakovs completes the circle which started with the revolutions in the early years of the twentieth century and finished with the upheavals of 1989. The confrontation between early Soviet art and that of the later Soviet era presents opportunities for a better understanding of the art and culture of the intervening period. In addition to works from the collection of the Kabakovs and the Van Abbemuseum, there will be loans from the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, the Guggenheim Museum in New York and Centre Pompidou in Paris, as well as from a number of private collections. Some of the Kabakovs’ installations have also been recreated for this occasion. The exhibition is part of NLRF2013, the Dutch – Russian year and travels to the Hermitage in St. Petersburg and the Multimedia Art Museum (MAMM) in Moscow in 2013. The opening takes place on Saturday 1 December, between 15.00 and 19.00.

    Tim Byers Art Books 50 Books Catalogue 19 – (February 2020) 1. Helena ALMEIDA. Helena Almeida. Lisbon. Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian. 1982. (23.8 x 16.9 cm). pp. (130). Monochrome illustrations throughout, text in Portuguese with English translation. Original printed wrappers. Covers slightly foxed and minor creasing to spine. The daughter of the sculptor Leopoldo de Almeida (1898-1975), Helena Almeida graduated in painting from the Escola Superior de Belas-Artes de Lisbon in 1955. In 1961 she participated in the II Exposição de Artes Plásticas da Fundacção Calouste Gulbenkian, and in 1964 she obtained a scholarship, continuing her studies in Paris. Returning to Portugal, she exhibits individually for the first time in 1967 (Galeria Buchholz, Lisbon), and from the end of the 1960s onwards, Almeida began to focus on self-representation and on the tensions between the body, space and the work: her own body is often seen as the object of the work, which since 1975, has been developed through the manipulation of means such as painting, drawing, engraving, installation, photography and video. Dressed in black since the early 1970’s, sometimes with objects or furniture found in her studio, she assumes positions that she has painstakingly choreographed in order to create complex visual compositions that are as much about space and line as the relationship between the artist and the image. This publication, sponsored by the Gulbenkian Foundation, was published on the occasion of Almeida representing Portugal at the Venice Biennale of 1982. £ 120 2. (John BEARDSLEY). Probing the Earth.

  • Maria Eichhorn’S Aktiengesellschaft, Installed at the Van Abbemuseum Since June, 2007
    The Free! Copyist new #1: “Value” Play Van Abbe About n The 18-month programme Play Van Abbe at the Van Abbe- museum consists of exhibitions, projects, performances, lec- tures and discussions, taking the collection of the Van Abbe- museum as a starting point. Play Van Abbe is subdivided into four parts, each with its own theme. Part 1, The Game and the Players, began in November 2009 and ran until March 2010. In this first part the museum focuses on the stories of artists and exhibition makers. Who are these “players” within a museum and which stories do they tell? How was the collection presented in 1983 and how is this perceived in 2010? How does the current director present the collection? In what way does an art museum position itself – both in the present and in the past? These questions were put up for discussion in The Game and the Players in three exhibitions: Repetition: Summer Display 1983, Strange and Close and Rien ne va plus. Part 1 of Play Van Abbe closed in March 2010 with the project, If I Can’t Dance… Edition III – The second part of Play Van Abbe, called Time Machines, opens in April 2010 and will be on view until the end of Au- gust 2010. This chapter investigates museum models from the past, asking: how does the museum use presentation tech- niques to tell a story and what are the hidden assumptions? Time Machines includes the exhibitions, Museum Modules and In-between Minimalisms (10/04 - 12/09/2010), as well as To the Margin and Back (10/04 - 16/08/2010).

  • Towards a Museum of Mutuality Editorial Vasiliki (Vasso) Belia
    Towards a Museum of Mutuality Editorial Vasiliki (Vasso) Belia, Rosemarie Buikema, Margriet Schavemaker, Emilie Sitzia and Rosa Wevers Engendering integration while acknowledging differences is one of the biggest challenges facing museums globally today. Institutions must reconceptualize the relationship between their collections and the engagement with (new and diverse) audiences at all levels. In response, there has been a shift in the museum model, both theoretically and on the level of institutional arrangements, from the museum as a site of authority to the post-museum as a site of mutuality.1 The act of curating at its most basic is about connecting different concepts and cultures, and bringing their elements into proximity with each other in order to create innovative ways of seeing that counter social injustice and promote equity on all possible levels. Beyond the museum as “contact zone,”2 and following Terry Smith, the curatorial turn is interested in exploring new contexts and relationships, and working with an artifact’s ability to reveal hidden knowledge.3 Museums have become spaces for knowledge creation as well as agents of social regeneration and vehicles of broad social change.4 Similarly, feminist and postcolonial researchers and museum practitioners seek to decentralize the universal, 1/9 Western epistemological logic as only one way of seeing things. The striking concordance between these two fields speaks to the need for setting up knowledge networks that bridge different epistemologies, iconographies, and vocabularies.5

I want to express my deepest gratitude for her help throughout the past six months – her door was always open when I had questions or difficulties, and for that I will always cherish the excellent advice she has given me. I would also like to thank Dr. Nana Leigh, because her classes on museums’ ethics, politics, and social involvement have proven invaluable for the creation of my theoretical framework. Special thanks are owed to all Leiden University staff, including the lecturers who have taught me, the Board of Examiners for Arts and Culture, the IT department, the Admissions Office, and the library staff.
