Art of the Senses November 4, 2017–January 28, 2018 out of Sight! Out of Sight! Art of the Senses November 4, 2017–January 28, 2018 Out of Sight! Art of the Senses brings together contemporary works of art that actively engage with how our bodies meet the wider world through the five basic senses. By inviting us not only to look but also to listen, smell, touch, and even taste, these works challenge the traditional association of art with vision, expanding what it means to experience and interact with a work of art. Emerging in the later twentieth century, new art forms— including performance, sound, and installation art—have brought art “viewing” into closer alignment with the multisensory and participatory nature of everyday life. At the same time, by making the act of sensation strange and unfamiliar, these new forms also prompt us to examine the powerful role of our senses in shaping our world—a topic of particular importance to diverse artists working today. Throughout the exhibition, major works from the later twentieth century by artists such as Lucas Samaras, Nam June Paik, and Felix Gonzalez-Torres provide a historical framework for more recent works by international artists including Do Ho Suh, Valeska Soares, and Nari Ward. The intimacy of these artworks appeals to the senses—we feel, taste, smell, or hear each of them on a highly personal level—while it also renegotiates the terms of spectatorship and the relationship between contemporary art and everyday life. Photography without flash is encouraged unless otherwise noted. Share your experience with #albrightknox. This exhibition is organized by Peggy Pierce Elfvin Director Janne Sirén, Deputy Director Joe Lin-Hill, and Chief Curator Cathleen Chaffee. Heri Dono Indonesian, born 1960 Bidadari (Flying Angels), 1996 Fiberglass, fabric, bamboo, acrylic paint, electronic and mechanic devices, cable, and automatic timer Collection Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York By exchange: Gift of Mrs. George A. Forman, Edmund Hayes Fund, James G. Forsyth Fund, Elisabeth H. Gates Fund, Charles W. Goodyear and Mrs. Georgia M. G. Forman Funds, Charles Clifton and James G. Forsyth Funds and Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Lucien Garo, 2015 Senses: Hear Heri Dono’s Bidadari (Flying Angels) are reminiscent of the figures found in wayang golek, a puppet theater tradition native to Indonesia. The artist also cites Flash Gordon and other science fiction characters as an influence, and his handmade angels connect folk and popular culture. Dono created this work during a period of intense political repression in Indonesia, and he chose to engage with the imagery of puppetry because of its long history as a platform where otherwise taboo social and political issues may be addressed through allegory and symbolism. Here, Dono offers us a small moment of personal freedom: you may choose to activate the work—causing the bidadari to flap their wings and make noise— by stepping on one of the two floor pedals. Referencing both traditional and contemporary Indonesian culture, Bidadari (Flying Angels) also functions as a symbol of liberty and the power of the human imagination. Olafur Eliasson Icelandic, born 1967 Triple ripple, 2004 Glass, mirror, electric motors, spotlight, and tripod Collection Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York Albert H. Tracy, Charles W. Goodyear and Charles Clifton Funds, by exchange, 2007 Senses: See The hypnotic, shifting shadows of Olafur Eliasson’s Triple ripple are produced by rotating glass discs and mirrors that distort light and play with the shadows of people moving through the gallery. Eliasson has described his works as “devices for the experience of reality,” and over the course of his career he has employed a wide range of mediums in his experiments with color and light. However, these physical materials—which have included mirrors, projected light, and fog—are only a means to what he sees as the real work of art: the human experiences they generate. Felix Gonzalez-Torres American, born Cuba, 1957–1996 “Untitled” (Water), 1995 Strands of beads and hanging device The Baltimore Museum of Art Purchase with exchange funds from Bequest of Saidie A. May, BMA 1995.73 Senses: Hear, Touch In order to reach the other galleries in the exhibition, you need to pass carefully through the luminous strands of Felix Gonzalez-Torres’s “Untitled” (Water). The rustling of the swinging blue, clear, and silver beads can cause us to become uniquely conscious of the other bodies entering and exiting our space. Beaded curtains have traditionally been used to divide public from private or domestic spaces, such as the back room of a store. Like Gonzalez-Torres’s other related beaded curtain works, “Untitled” (Water) can grow or shrink to fit the space where it is exhibited. The artist only requested that these works be installed in threshold spaces, like a doorway, or as boundaries within larger rooms. This work was created during the height of the AIDS crisis in the United States, a time when addressing the private lives of bodies and sexuality had become an urgent political and public necessity. While his works are purposefully left open to interpretation, Gonzalez-Torres, who died from AIDS-related complications, often referred to broader social and political themes using poetically minimal means. With this work, common plastic beads are transformed into a dramatic, interactive cascade that seems, almost magically, to evoke the therapeutic and cleansing properties of water. A second work by Gonzalez-Torres is on view downstairs in the 1962 Building. Felix Gonzalez-Torres American, born Cuba, 1957–1996 Untitled, 1992 Candies individually wrapped in variously colored cellophane, endless supply Private Collection, New York Senses: Taste, Touch You are invited to take and eat one of the colorful candies that make up Felix Gonzalez- Torres’s Untitled. By doing so, you take on some responsibility for altering the work’s shape and overall presence in this space. Over the course of the exhibition, as other visitors take pieces of candy, this glittering carpet will fluctuate in form and size, but will be continually replenished. The work embodies a kind of alchemy: by choosing to present common objects in the uncommon context of the museum, the artist transformed this small gesture into something poetic and even emotional. Gonzalez-Torres’s work often strives to bring private experiences into the public realm, and Untitled speaks to the complex effects of time: growth and dissipation, loss and renewal. Several of Gonzalez-Torres’s candy works are portraits; in one, the total weight of the candy is equivalent to the ideal body weight of the artist’s lover, who eventually wasted away from AIDS-related complications. Another candy piece from 1991 was made as a warning against the excesses of nationalism during the first Gulf War. As a square field, Untitled plays on the geometries of artists associated with the Minimal art of the 1960s, such as Donald Judd or Dan Flavin, whose works are also on view in this gallery. Unlike the work of these Minimalists, however, Gonzalez-Torres’s works are interactive and serial, rather than autonomous and unique. Please note that this work may present a choking hazard, especially to young children. A full list of ingredients is available at the Information Desk. A second work by Gonzalez-Torres is on view upstairs in the special exhibition Out of Sight! Art of the Senses. Robert Irwin American, born 1928 Untitled, 1967 Laquer on aluminum Collection Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York The Panza Collection and George B. and Jenny R. Mathews Fund, by exchange, George B. and Jenny R. Mathews Fund and Charles Clifton Fund, by exchange, 2012 Senses: See In terms of materials, Robert Irwin’s work is extraordinarily simple: a painted aluminum disc mounted on the wall. But when it is lit according to the artist’s specifications, the work generates a ring of overlapping shadows that feel just as physically present as the disc itself. This carefully calibrated installation immerses us in an experience of light and shadow, challenging our power of perception and the conventional idea that an artwork is bounded by a frame. During the 1960s, Irwin was one of a number of artists, including Dan Flavin and James Turrell (whose work is also featured in this exhibition), who transformed the way we think about light in art. The representation of light and its effects has been a primary subject for artists for centuries: from the flash of early morning dawn in seascapes by J. M. W. Turner, to the glow of moonlight mastered by Albert Pinkham Ryder. For Irwin, Flavin, and Turrell, however, light is an artistic material in its own right, not something to be represented or reproduced using other materials. Wolfgang Laib German, born 1950 Without Beginning and Without End, 2005 Beeswax and wooden understructure Courtesy the artist and Sperone Westwater, New York Senses: Smell If you carefully lean in toward Wolfgang Laib’s Without Beginning and Without End, you might pick up a faint floral scent. This comes from the layer of beeswax covering the work. Laib first began incorporating beeswax—alongside milk, pollen, and other organic materials—in his sculpture about twenty years ago. Since then, he has created numerous chambers lined with beeswax in museums as well as in nature. Often, Laib juxtaposes these fragile elements with sturdy forms reminiscent of monuments. Without Beginning and Without End, for instance, evokes the ziggurats of the ancient Middle East in the way it connects the earth and sky. It is a study in balance between the infinite and the ephemeral, between manmade structures and natural effects. Laib originally trained as a doctor, but he turned to art after deciding that medicine focused too much on the human body and not enough on the human spirit.

Photo: Lisa Rastl artist, Hauser & Wirth, and Luhring New York, NY…The New Museum is pleased to present the first New York survey of the work of Swiss artist Pipilotti Rist (b.1962). Over the past thirty years, Rist has achieved international renown as a pioneer of video art and multimedia installations. Her mesmerizing works envelop viewers in sensual, vibrantly colored kaleidoscopic projections that fuse the natural world with the technological sublime. Referring to her art as a “glorification of the wonder of evolution,” Rist maintains a deep sense of curiosity that pervades her explorations of physical and psychological experiences. Her works bring viewers into unexpected, all-consuming encounters with the textures, forms, and functions of the living universe around us. Occupying the three main floors of the New Museum, “Pipilotti Rist: Pixel Forest” is the most comprehensive presentation of Rist’s work in New York to date. It includes work spanning the artist’s entire career, from her early single-channel videos of the 1980s, which explore the representation of the female body in popular culture, to her recent expansive video installations, which transform architectural spaces into massive dreamlike environments enhanced by hypnotic musical scores.

What changes, what comes to form a whole, what was overlooked and where does it go from here? Audiovisual Messages – the 1973 edition of the trigon Biennal – placed a major emphasis on media art, putting local artists in direct relation to international developments. This exhibition marked the beginning of a dynamic that made Graz appear a special place for media art. With influential works by artists such as Nam June Paik, Keith Sonnier, Gottfried Bechtold, Trisha Brown and Bruce Naumann, what emerges is a web of topics that have captivated media art from the beginning, including space-time penetration, media discussion and -reflection or the painterly/musical qualities of new media – topics showing a clearly traceable development in relation to more recent work. Thus the exhibition media art collecting deals with collecting activities at the Neue Galerie Graz in the area of media art, the essence of which becomes evident in the spectrum of exhibitions held over the past 40 years. Building on the 2009 exhibition Rewind/Fast Forward at the Neue Galerie Graz and its first-ever survey of the institution’s video art collection, the current exhibition media.art.collecting.

    Kate Gilmore VIDEO CONTAINER: TOUCH CINEMA KNIGHT EXHIBITION SERIES Ursula Mayer, Gonda, 2012, Film still On May 15, 2014, Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami (MOCA) presents “Video Container: Touch Cinema,” a presentation of single-channel video work by contemporary artists who investigate the material and metaphysical presence of the body as it relates to issues of identity and sexuality. The second edition of a new MOCA video series exploring topical issues in contemporary art making, “Video Container” reflects the museum’s ongoing commitment to presenting and contextualizing experimental and critical practices, and to providing a platform for interdisciplinary media and discursive content. The program series is made possible by an endowment to the museum by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. “Video Container: Touch Cinema” features videos by leading contemporary artists including: Vito Acconci, Bas Jan Ader, Sadie Benning, Shezad Dawood, Harry Dodge, Kate Gilmore, Maryam Jafri, Mike Kelley & Paul McCarthy, Ursula Mayer, Alix Pearlstein, Pipilotti Rist, Carolee Schneemann, Frances Stark, VALIE EXPORT, and Hannah Wilke, among others. The exhibition borrows its title from an iconic recording of a 1968 guerrilla performance by VALIE EXPORT, in which the artist attached a miniature curtained “movie theater” to her bare chest and invited passersby on the street to reach in. Conflating the space of the theater with her own body, EXPORT’s performance emphasized the powerful and contested nature of viewership and interaction. Ranging from performance documentation to abstract shorts and long-form narratives, the artists in “Video Container: Touch Cinema” expand upon themes related to VALIE EXPORT’s seminal piece.

Introduction 3 2. Methodology 4 3. Beyonce's Lemonade (2016) 5 3.1 Denial: “Hold Up” 6 3.2 Accountability: “Daddy Lessons” 12 3.3 Hope: “Freedom” 21 3.4 Formation 33 4. Conclusion 44 5. Works Cited 46 Appendix 49 Abstract Beyoncé’s latest album has become an instant social phenomenon worldwide. Given its innovative poetic, visual, musical and socio-politic impact, the famous and controversial African American singer has taken an untraveled road—both personal and professional. The purpose of this essay is to provide a close reading of the poetry, music, lyrics and visuals in four sections from Beyoncé’s critically acclaimed Lemonade (2016). To this end, I have chosen what I believe are the most representative sections of Lemonade together with their respective songs. Thus, I focus on the song “Hold Up” from Denial; “Daddy Lessons” from Accountability, “Freedom” from Hope, and “Formation,” where Beyoncé addresses topics such as infidelity, racism, women’s representation, and racism and inequality. I analyse these topics through a close-reading and interpretation of Warsan Shire’s poetry (a source of inspiration), as well as Beyoncé’s own music, lyrics, and imagery. From this analysis, it is safe to say that Lemonade is a relevant work of art that will perdure in time, since it highlights positive representations of African-Americans, at the same time Beyoncé critically denounces the current racial unrest lived in the USA.

  • The Nga Opens Pipilotti Rist Immersive Video Installation
    MEDIA RELEASE 10 March 2017 THE NGA OPENS PIPILOTTI RIST IMMERSIVE VIDEO INSTALLATION A newly-acquired large-scale immersive video installation by Swiss contemporary artist, Pipilotti Rist, goes on display tomorrow at the National Gallery of Australia. Worry will vanish revelation (2014) opens in the Contemporary Galleries on Lower Ground 1 until August. An intertwining psychedelic microcosm of flesh and nature is projected on a 16-metre surround screen inside a dedicated space that engulfs the viewer in a meditative experience. Rist’s hyper-real visuals are both visceral and psychological, offering a contemporary trip through the sensual and sublime. Starting in the human body and across the skin, the journey takes flight like insects across nature and transforms into the vastness of the universe. Worry will vanish revelation premiered at Hauser & Wirth in London in 2015 to sublime reviews and exhibited as part of a major survey of her work at the Kunsthaus Zurich in 2016. Rist’s significant presence on the world contemporary art stage has been cemented since her foray into experimental video and film in the 1980s. Her work has featured in numerous international biennales, including representing Switzerland at the 51st Venice Biennale in 2005. Her solo exhibitions have included the Times Square commission, Open my glade and the enormous projected installation Pour your body out at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), culminating in the first major survey of her work, Pixel Forest, at the New Museum, New York, last year. This installation was acquired with the support of generous donors to the NGA Foundation Gala Dinner Fund 2016.

Drawing from diverse sources—contemporary video art, commercial film, self-appropriation and recycling of her own imagery—Rist is fluent in a visual language that exuberantly embraces aspects of mass media and experimental video, playfully confronting the high/low debate. Known for saturated colors, speed distortion, and sensual underwater shots, her work has been described as irresistible and hypnotic. Architecture, time, and the role of video as an element of spatial installation are central to Rist’s work.

Die Ausstellung konzentriert sich auf Covers und Objekte, bei denen das künstlerische Bild in Form von Zeichnung, Malerei oder Fotografie im Vordergrund steht. Durch die eigenständige Präsenz der Bildwerke treten die üblichen Angaben zur musikalischen und künstlerischen Autorschaft in den Hintergrund. Die Sammlung umfasst historische und aktuelle Beispiele aus einem Zeitraum von über 50 Jahren mit geschichtlich unterschiedlich gewachsenen Kooperationsformen zwischen Kunst und Musik bis zu aktuellen Formen der Multimedialität mit fliessenden Grenzen, so wie bei Rodney Graham mit der offenen Fragestellung: „Am I a musician trapped in an artist's mind or an artist trapped in a musician's body?"
