Translating Practice TRANSLATING PRACTICE Brigit Connolly A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Royal College of Art for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2017 Royal College of Art COPYRIGHT This text represents the submission for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Royal College of Art. This copy has been supplied for the purpose of research for private study, on the understanding that it is copyright material, and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgment. 2 ABSTRACT Translatability and translation, the possibility and act of conveying some thing between people, objects, languages, cultures, times, spaces and media, have become increasingly important elements of creative practice and works of art. My research explores this proposition. To contextualise this concept of translation as an artistic and critical method mediating the relationship of the seeable to the sayable I retrace an under-mined vein of translation that grew from the Enlightenment, the Early (Jena) Romantic response to it and its subsequent development through Walter Benjamin to other modern theorists. I suggest that this tradition of translation has developed into a creative method that assumes a pre-existent given from which it evolves in order to destabilise, re-appropriate and make-new. The thesis argues that art has come to occupy the space of translation and proposes that an interpretative mode is ultimately antithetical to a form of thought engaged with in the creative process. This relies on the understanding of a qualitative distinction between acts of translation as presentational and of interpretation as representational. The distinction is not clear-cut since these two forms of mediation operate on a continuum. The probable root of “interpret” in English is “between prices” and derives from trade. This etymology stresses the transactional, hermeneutic role of the interpreter as a responsive agent that negotiates between distinct value systems to ensure equivalence during the process of exchange. While Interpretation operates primarily within the symbolic aspect of language translation retains a relationship to metaphor, which acknowledges that during transfer something becomes something that it literally is not. It must therefore also account for Aporia, or what fails to cross over and for a-signifying, singular aspects that affect or alter the symbolic during this process. In contrast to interpretation, translation’s relation to subjectivity, its resistance to schematisation and reduction to the accurate, objective and rational transfer of information provides a prophylaxis of doubt and generates heterogeneity. 3 The thesis triangulates my practices as artist, translator and critic using translation to destabilise and re-calibrate the relationship of theory to practice. In relation to theory, rather than use this to explain, interpret, or categorize art, it advocates the translational practice of placing in parallel so that lines of thought may be drawn from one to the other, responding to and setting up points of intersection, divergence and congruence to encourage a non-hierarchical associative-dissociative dismantling. Translation informs the research method, structure and content of the thesis, which occupies an inter-theoretical, inter-disciplinary or matrixial space. As such, it is edified through a process that derives from and displays the translational method and diverse sources that constitute it. Four case studies bring together practices employing a translational method from different periods, cultures, creative practices and theoretical sources: Bernard Leach and Ezra Pound’s modernist projects; Jorge Luis Borges’ theory of translation and Briony Fer’s re-presentation of Eva Hesse’s studio work; the Brazilian poets Haroldo and Agosto De Campos’ theory of Cannibalistic translation and painter Adriana Varejao’s work with tiles; and ceramicist Alison Britton in light of Donald Winnicott’s concept of transitional spaces. 4 CONTENTS ABSTRACT 3 LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS 6 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 9 INTRODUCTION 12 CHAPTER 1 A TRADITION OF TRANSLATION 22 CHAPTER 2 TRANSLATION AND AUTHENTICITY 73 CHAPTER 3 TRANSLATION AND PRACTICE 135 CHAPTER 4 TRANSLATION AND SENSE 177 CHAPTER 5 TRANSLATION AND TRANSITION 222 IN CONCLUSION BIBLIOGRAPHY 294 5 LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS Chapter 2 Translation and Authenticity Figure 1.

  • “The Aesthetics of Play” Dada/Dadaism a Cultural
    Examples and references mentioned in Celia Pearce’s text “the Aesthetics of Play” Dada/Dadaism A cultural movement that began in Zurich, Switzerland, during World War I and peaked from 1916 to 1922. The movement primarily involved visual arts, literature—poetry, art manifestoes, art theory—theatre, and graphic design It is an example of art as counter-movement and favored anti-war politics through a rejection of the prevailing standards in art through anti-art cultural works. In response to the terrible events and the tragedy of WW1 Dada favored nonsensical, outrageous and sometimes anarchist actions as responses to the speechlessness and shock of a whole generation. Example: Kurt Schitters, Uronate, 1922-32 (excerpt) http://costis.org/x/schwitters/ursonate.htm Highly influential to the Surrealist, Fluxus and Punk Rock movements Readymades Marchel Duchamp – readymade: "an ordinary object elevated to the dignity of a work of art by the mere choice of an artist." Most radical form of art at the time - in contrast to "retinal art" — art that was only visual. Art creating controversy: Porcelain urinal inscribed "R. Mutt 1917." Marcel Duchamp, Fountain 1917. Other Duchamp readymades include for example 50 cc of Paris Air (50 cc air de Paris, Paris Air or Air de Paris) (1919): A glass ampoule containing air from Paris, and L.H.O.O.Q. the objet trouvé ("found object") which is a cheap postcard reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa onto which Duchamp drew a moustache and beard in pencil and appended the title. When pronounced in French form the sentence "Elle a chaud au cul", which can be translated as "She has a hot ass" This work can be seen not only to critique established art conventions, but to also force the audience to put aside what they had thought before and look at something with a completely different perspective.

  • Found Object
    FOUND OBJECT ‘A found object is a natural or man-made object – or fragment of an object – that is found (or sometimes bought) by an artist and kept because of some intrinsic interest the artist sees in it’ The term ‘found object’ was conceived from a loan translation, that is, a word or phrase directly taken from another language through literal word for word translation. In this case, from the French ‘objet trouvé’. This artistic concept was introduced to the world in the early 20th century, in a period where many artists sought to challenge the traditional notions on the true nature of art, and its value. Art created using the found object, describes undisguised, often altered, objects or products that one could find in day-to-day life. These objects, which lacked any association with art, being an item or thing with their own individual purpose, were considered particularly unconventional, in their use as an artistic medium. Pablo Picasso, acknowledged globally for his contributions to the development of Modern art during the 20th century, first applied the concept in his painting titled ‘Still Life with Chair Caning’ (1912). The piece was completed on a circular canvas, edged with rope, with a printed image of chair caning. By incorporating industrially produced products (low culture), into the field of fine art (high culture), Picasso effectively opens up a line of questioning, concerning both the role of the technical skills in making art and of mass-produced objects. Despite Picasso’s earlier involvement, the concept is widely thought to have been perfected, several years later, when Marcel Duchamp released a series of “ready-mades”.
