Discovering the Contemporary
of formalist distance upon which modernists had relied for understanding the world. Critics increasingly pointed to a correspondence between the formal properties of 1960s art and the nature of the radically changing world that sur- rounded them. In fact formalism, the commitment to prior- itizing formal qualities of a work of art over its content, was being transformed in these years into a means of discovering content. Leo Steinberg described Rauschenberg’s work as “flat- bed painting,” one of the lasting critical metaphors invented 1 in response to the art of the immediate post-World War II Discovering the Contemporary period.5 The collisions across the surface of Rosenquist’s painting and the collection of materials on Rauschenberg’s surfaces were being viewed as models for a new form of realism, one that captured the relationships between people and things in the world outside the studio. The lesson that formal analysis could lead back into, rather than away from, content, often with very specific social significance, would be central to the creation and reception of late-twentieth- century art. 1.2 Roy Lichtenstein, Golf Ball, 1962.

MIT Program in Art, Culture and Technology
MIT Program in Art, Culture and Technology The MIT Visual Arts Program (VAP) and the Center for Advanced Visual Studies (CAVS) merged in July 2009 to form the MIT Program in Art, Culture and Technology (ACT). This spring, ACT proudly celebrated its inauguration at its new home in the Media Lab complex (E14) and the Wiesner Building (E15). This new program draws on the impressive legacies of VAP (founded 20 years ago) and CAVS (founded in 1967). Focusing on the intersections of art, culture, and technology through performance, sound, video/film, photography, interrogative and eco-design, as well as experimental media and new genres, ACT’s academic and research initiatives reflect the mission of the new program, which is to operate as a laboratory based on critical studies and production, connecting artists and cultural producers with those working at the forefront of technology. ACT’s faculty, fellows, and students take an experimental and systematic approach to creative production and transdisciplinary collaboration, with the goal of furthering and disseminating advanced visual studies and research at the intersection of art, culture, and technology. The program emphasizes art that engages public spheres, the production of space, networked cultures, and participatory media while addressing such issues as the environment, gender, and social stratification. In the tradition of the founder of the Center for Advanced Visual Studies, Hungarian-born artist Gyorgy Kepes, a gifted educator and advocate of “art on a civic scale,” ACT envisions artistic leadership as initiating change and providing a critically transformative view of the world with the civic responsibility to enrich cultural discourse.

The Effect of New Media on Contemporaneity of the Works by Krzysztof Wodiczko Pjaee, 18 (4) (2021)
THE EFFECT OF NEW MEDIA ON CONTEMPORANEITY OF THE WORKS BY KRZYSZTOF WODICZKO PJAEE, 18 (4) (2021) THE EFFECT OF NEW MEDIA ON CONTEMPORANEITY OF THE WORKS BY KRZYSZTOF WODICZKO Sepideh Takshi1, Mohammad Kazem Hassanvand2* 1M.A., Department of Painting, Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran. 2*Assistant Professor, Department of Painting, Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran. [email protected] Sepideh Takshi, Mohammad Kazem Hassanvand. The Effect of New Media on Contemporaneity of the Works by Krzysztof Wodiczko-- Palarch’s Journal of Archaeology of Egypt/Egyptology 18(4), 7651-7663. ISSN 1567-214x. Keywords: Contemporary, Medium, Rendering, Situation. Abstract Attentions were paid to media since the second half of the twentieth century and it was with the technological progresses that the number of the media was increased and a vast ground was in addition set for the artists to grant a power of manifestation to their ideas. The present study aims at finding an answer to the question as to how have the new media influenced the contemporaneity of the works by artists, especially Krzysztof Wodiczko? In order to find an answer to this question, the definition and specifications of contemporaneousness should be studied and investigated hence it is proposed that how much have media influenced contemporaneity of the works by various artists. Considering the study, technological progresses and the application of the new media, especially of the digital type, have enabled more interaction between the audience and the artworks to the extent that the former is no longer just an observer; thus, contemporaneity of the artworks is not specific to the time in a historical sense and numerous factors have caused the artworks to become contemporaneous; media are amongst these factors.

Contemporary Art and Student Learning
The International Journal of Arts Education Contemporary Art Contemporary Art and Student and Student Learning Learning Michael Day Professor Emeritus The Brigham Young University E-mail:[email protected] Abstract Three broad rationales for art education are reviewed: Creative self-expression; history and culture, and popular visual culture. All are considered praiseworthy as bases for art curriculum, or as components within art programs. Values of contemporary art are viewed as essential for student learning, regardless of selected rationale or combination of rationales. Several contemporary artists are presented and discussed as exemplars for student learning, including artists from several regions of the world. Six typical contributions of contemporary artists are discussed with reference to potential student learning. Key Words: rationales for art education, contemporary art, student learning art curriculum This article is based on a presentation given at the World Creativity Summit Taipei held in June 2008. C InJAE7.1 ○ NTAEC 2009 125 國際藝術教育學刊 Contemporary Art The content of art education in many countries, including the United and Student Learning States, addresses several broad categories. Children and young people in the schools make art through use of traditional art materials and art principles and conventions. They study the history of art from their own culture and from cultures around the world, with attention to significant works and major artists from various periods and styles. Currently much attention is focused on the study of visual culture from the mass media and advertising that students experience in their everyday lives. Any of these three basic approaches or combinations of them can lead to quality art programs, as attested by examples of excellence in art education from around the world.

Critical Vehicles
wodicz cover 09/13/01 2:53 PM Page 1 Krzysztof Wodiczko, one of the most original avant-garde Critical Vehicles Writings, Projects, Interviews Wodiczko artists of our time, is perhaps best known for the politically Krzysztof Wodiczko charged images he has projected onto buildings and monu- Krzysztof Wodiczko ments from New York to Warsaw—images of rockets projected onto triumphal arches, the image of handcuffed wrists pro- jected onto a courthouse facade, images of homeless people in bandages and wheelchairs projected onto statues in a park from which they have been evicted. In projects such as the Homeless Vehicle, which he designed through discussions with homeless people, Wodiczko has helped to make public space a place where marginalized people can speak, establish their presence, and assert their rights. Critical Vehicles is the first book in English to collect Wodiczko’s own writings on his projects. Wodiczko has stated that his principal artistic concern is the displacement of tradi- tional notions of community and identity in the face of rapidly expanding technologies and cultural miscommunication. In Critical Vehicles these writings he addresses such issues as urbanism, homeless- ness, immigration, alienation, and the plight of refugees. Fusing wit and sophisticated political insight, he offers the artistic means to help heal the damages of uprootedness and other contemporary troubles. In 1998, Krzysztof Wodiczko was awarded the Hiroshima Prize for his contribution as an artist to world peace. “Krzysztof Wodiczko’s public artworks bring the city to life. Statues, monuments, and buildings speak, questioning power and even declaring rights. The writings in Critical Vehicles place this poetic, disquieting art within the most urgent polit- ical project of our time: the struggle to extend democracy by interrupting certitudes about the meaning of social life.

MESSAGES TO THE PUBLIC: KRZYSZTOF WODICZKO AND JENNY HOLZER VS. THE REAGAN REVOLUTION by Vanessa Nicole Sorenson B.A., Simon Fraser University, 2002 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Fine Arts) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2010 © Vanessa Nicole Sorenson, 2010 Abstract In the week preceding the 1984 United States presidential election, Jenny Holzer and Krzysztof Wodiczko presented ephemeral works of art in public spaces in Manhattan that addressed the election and were highly critical of President Ronald Reagan. Previous considerations of Wodiczko’s AT&T projection, Holzer’s Sign on a Truck and the larger public art movement of that time have emphasized a post-structuralist interpretation, neglecting the applied political aspects in favour of their theoretical underpinnings. With a move towards the practical aspects of the works, this thesis examines the conditions that led to the presentation of these two works and considers what they can teach us about the larger practice of political public art during that period in New York. Chapter 1 considers the political, economic and artistic context of the United States—and New York in particular—in the early to mid 1980s. The Chapter 2 offers an analysis of Wodiczko’s AT&T projection, a night-time projection of the image of President Reagan’s French-cuffed hand onto the side of the AT&T Long Lines building, posed for a recognizable American ritual, the Pledge of Allegiance. Chapter 3 closely considers Sign on a Truck, for which Jenny Holzer deployed a giant screen, mounted on the side of an 18-wheeler truck, to display pre-recorded videos created by collaborating artists interspersed with “man-on-the-street” interviews commenting on the looming presidential election.
