ABSTRACT This thesis examines how elements of the contemporary artworld can be seen to adapt in relation to an increasingly networked twenty-first century world. Recognising the advent of the World Wide Web as a point of paradigmatic disruption the text develops a selection of theoretical ideas. These ideas reflect that the cultural landscape is shifting to be evermore network orientated. The concept of a networked world, a cultural space defined by hyper-links, is projected onto the development of two forms of exhibition—the monumental commission and the mega-exhibition. By viewing these two case studies the thesis demonstrates ways in which key artworld structures may be reconsidered within a dynamic twenty-first century world. The first case study, Shock and Awe, analyses the monumental commission as a conduit for networking—a site designed to produce a specific sociability. This section considers the development of the Unilever commissions at the Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall. Five monumental artworks are evaluated for the way they can be seen to operate as socialising media. The second case study, Mega-Forma, explores the development of four mega- exhibitions by two seperate curators across the last 15 years. Mega-Forma observes that these exhibitions have redirected their energy and become focused on redistributing cultural agency in a decentralised twenty-first century. These exhibitions are recognised as developing into a larger sort of gesamtkunstwerk, an all-embracing art form. The roles of the curators will be seen to shift from a mere arranger of things to a reprogrammer of cultural relations, a cultural auteur—an architect of experience. Ultimately the thesis will underscore some ways in which we might reconceptualise the way the artworld operates in the twenty-first century. !5 of 122!

INTRODUCTION - A NEW WORLD MAP The WorldWideWeb (W3) is a wide-area hypermedia information retrieval initiative aiming to give universal access to a large universe of documents.1 Network culture could only come after postmodernity had run its course. Today the fragmentation of the sign, the end of the subject, and the dissolution of any sense of authenticity in media are fait accompli. If postmodernism celebrated the shattering of the subject, network culture takes that shattering as a given.2 The seeds of these future world-views are being sown today: whilst contemporary software engineers may perhaps appear to be engaged in discussions of unbridled pedantry, they may actually be in the process of setting the foundations of something far more important and enduring that may subtly influence every subsequent generation.3 1 Tim Berners-Lee. http://info.Cern.Ch, CERN, 1990. 2 Kazys Varnelis, "The Immediated Now: Network Culture and the Poetics of Reality," The Networked Book Project, http://varnelis.networkedbook.org/the-immediated-now-network-culture-and-the-poetics-of-reality/

A major new collaboration between Tate Modern and the Musée de la danse in Rennes, France, directed by Members Room dancer and choreographer Boris Charmatz, this temporary 5 occupation, lasting just 48 hours, extends beyond simply inviting the 20 Dancers discipline of dance into the art museum. Instead it considers how the 4 museum can be transformed by dance altogether as one institution 20 Dancers overlaps with another. By entering the public spaces and galleries of 3 Tate Modern, Musée de la danse dramatises questions about how art might be perceived, displayed and shared from a danced and 20 Dancers expo zéro choreographed perspective.

As a talk, it was first given at the CIMAM 2006 Annual Conference, Contemporary Institutions: Between Public and Private, held at Tate Modern. In the large literature about museums and their changing roles, there has slowly begun to emerge some consideration of branding. Margot A.

In the past, the major commissioners were the Church, State, and wealthy individuals. Today, a variety of entities act as commissioners, including art museums, private or public art organizations, foundations, corporations, commercial galleries, and private individuals. These groups have increasingly formed partnerships with each other, collaborating on raising funds for realizing a diverse range of new works. The term, commissioning, also includes this transformation of the nature of the commissioning models, encompassing the process of commissioning within the term. Among many commissioning models, this research focuses on examining the commissioning practiced by Tate and Artangel in London, in an aim to discover the reason behind London's reputation today as one of the major cities of contemporary art throughout the world.

  • Tino Sehgal's
    KALDOR PUBLIC ART PROJECT 29: TINO SEHGAL’S THIS IS SO CONTEMPORARY For the 29th Kaldor Public Art Project, internationally acclaimed artist Tino Sehgal presents This is so contemporary, from 6 – 23 February 2014 at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Kaldor Public Art Projects and the Art Gallery of New South Wales have a long-standing relationship, which began with Project 3: Gilbert and George in 1973. This is so contemporary, the third project Kaldor Public Art Projects has presented in the Gallery’s classical vestibule, is spontaneous and contagiously uplifting, directly engaging the Gallery’s visitors. Sehgal has pioneered a radical and captivating way of making art. He orchestrates interpersonal encounters through dance, voice and movement, which have become renowned for their intimacy. This is so contemporary, first presented at the 2005 Venice Biennale and making its Australian debut, is no exception. In 2013, Sehgal was awarded the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale, one of the world’s most prestigious art awards, and was shortlisted for the Tate Modern’s Turner Prize. Key recent exhibitions include This Progress at the Guggenheim New York in 2010, These Associations at the Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall in 2012 and This Variation at dOCUMENTA 13. Sehgal leaves no material traces, creating something that is at once valuable and entirely immaterial in a world already full of objects. His works reside only in the space and time they occupy, and in the memory of the work and its reception. In order to focus all the attention on the physical evidence, the artist does not allow his work to be photographed or illustrated - no documentation or reproduction is permitted.

    PROJECT 27 13 Rooms 2013 13 Rooms 11 – 21 April 2013 Pier 2/3, Walsh Bay, Sydney BIOGRAPHIES HANS ULRICH OBRIST Swiss curator Hans Ulrich Obrist is Co-director of Exhibitions and Programs and Director of International Projects at the Serpentine Gallery, London. He has previously served as curator of the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris and Museum in Progress, Vienna. KLAUS BIESENBACH Klaus Biesenbach is Director of MoMA PS1 in New York and a Chief Curator at Large at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. He was the Founding Director of both the Kunst- Werke Institute of Contemporary Art in Berlin and the Berlin Biennale. Key international exhibitions organised by Biesenbach include MoMA’s landmark show Marina Abramovic: The Artist is Present (2010) and Hybrid Workspace at documenta X (Kassel, 1997 ). EXHIBITING ARTISTS Marina Abramović; John Baldessari; Joan Jonas; Damien Hirst; Tino Sehgal; Allora and Calzadilla; Simon Fujiwara; Xavier Le Roy; Laura Lima; Roman Ondak; Santiago Sierra; Xu Zhen; Clark Beaumont FACTS It’s not called 13 Performances because it’s not 13 performances. It’s not called 13 Artists because that would be irritating. It’s not called 13 Sculptures because that would be misleading. Instead it’s called 13 Rooms. – Klaus Biesenbach Exhibitions are fundamentally a medium of social encounter. – Hans Ulrich Obrist 13 Rooms ran for 11 days at Pier 2/3, Walsh Bay, Sydney. The exhibition was originally commissioned as 11 Rooms by Manchester International Festival, the International Arts Festival RUHRTRIENNALE 2012- 2014 and Manchester Art Gallery. In addition to the 12 international artists selected to participate in the project, Australian artist duo Clark Beaumont were invited by the curators to present work in a new thirteenth room.

  • Infinite Experience
    March, 2015 For immediate release TEMPORARY EXHIBITION Infinite Experience Curator: Agustín Pérez Rubio Artists: Allora & Calzadilla - Diego Bianchi - Elmgreen & Dragset – Dora García - Pierre Huyghe - Roman Ondák - Tino Sehgal - Judi Werthein Level 2. From March 20 to June 8 Opening: Thursday, March 19 In March will open at MALBA Infinite Experience, an exhibition of live works that incites reflection on forms of life as well as art and the museum, The works featured in an event with no precedent at a museum in Latin America consist of constructed situations, live installations, and representations and choreographies created in the first years of the 21st century. Works by eight outstanding artists from Argentina and abroad will be featured in the exhibition: Allora & Calzadilla [Jennifer Allora (Philadelphia, 1974) and Guillermo Calzadilla (Havana, 1971)], Diego Bianchi (Buenos Aires, 1969), Elmgreen & Dragset [Michael Elmgreen (Copenhagen, 1961) and Ingar Dragset (Trondheim, Norway, 1968)], Dora García (Valladolid, Spain, 1965), Pierre Huyghe (Paris, 1962), Roman Ondák (Žilina, Slovakia, 1966), Tino Sehgal (London, 1976; he lives in Berlin), and Judi Werthein (Buenos Aires, 1967; she lives in Miami). This is the first time most of these artists have shown their work in Argentina. The exhibition is born of a question: Is a live museum—where the works act, speak, move about, and live eternally—possible? For Agustín Pérez Rubio, artistic director of MALBA and curator of the exhibition: “The works in Experiencia Infinita are particularly concerned with the idea of the living as work and as a component of a kind of art that ensues not only in time but also in space: experience as journey, different situations that take place one after another,” he explains.
