Ricardo Brey Doble Existencia / Double Existence
Ricardo Brey Brey Ricardo / Existencia Doble Existence Double Ricardo Brey: Doble Existencia / Double Existence Alexander Gray Associates Ricardo Brey: Doble Existencia / Double Existence February 28 – April 6, 2019 Alexander Gray Associates Stormclouds, 2017, detail Ricardo Brey in Conversation with Alex Santana New York, NY, 2019 Alex Santana: You are currently based in Ghent, Belgium, but you were born and raised in Havana, Cuba and participated in an important moment for arts and culture on the island during the 1980s. How did Western art critics engage with Cuban art at the time? Ricardo Brey: There were many critics who came to visit and took a superfcial approach to Cuban art at the time. I even think some of them may have been disappointed in us. They found that we didn’t follow what they were expecting from us. The Cuba of that moment was Cuba of the Revolution, which was committed to building a narrative of an official history. We were searching for belonging. We wanted to establish a root to our country. Many of the Western critics and scholars who visited were Marxists and they pretended to be sympathetic to the Revolution, even though at the time they were acting very imperialistic towards the real communists in Cuba. They were paternalistic in that they wanted to teach us what to say and how to behave, to bestow the lessons of life upon us, to try and teach us how to be proper socialists. In my work at the time, it was more important for me to utilize the freedom I had with other authors––a freedom I recognized I didn’t have with Karl Marx. -

A few statements on “Chambres d’amis” 1.1.1. “Intriguingly titled ‘Chambres d’Amis’ –-‘guest rooms’,” or, literally, ‘friends’ rooms’-– the show places art in 58 houses belonging to everyday townspeople, carrying the work outside the separate universe, the total institution, of the museum, to bring it within the private zone of the private home, an asocial place insofar as it is removed from the public arena. (...) His [Hoet’s] project takes the exhibition structure off its hinges, goes beyond the limits of the frame and spills over, whole, into an interior. -
Oral History Interview with Edward B. Thomas, 1983 April 28-May 10
Oral history interview with Edward B. Thomas, 1983 April 28-May 10 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Edward B. Thomas on April 28 & May 10, 1983. The interview took place in Seattle, Washington, and was conducted by John Olbrantz for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview DATE: APRIL 28, 1983 [Tape 1] JOHN OLBRANTZ: Ed, can you tell me a little bit about your background, where you were born, your early childhood experiences, your parents, who your father was, who your mother was, how they came to live in this part of the country? EDWARD THOMAS: Well, I was born in Cosmopolis, Washington, and many times when I've come through customs, when I was much younger and especially at the Mexican border, they would say, "Where were you born?" and I'd say, "Cosmopolis, Washington," they'd say, "Look, bud! Don't get funny with us." (laughter) But there actually is such a place as Cosmopolis, Washington. Nobody had any particular influence upon me, I would say, in my younger years as far as becoming interested in art, and particularly teaching art. I had a very severe illness when I was four and five years old and was confined to bed a lot, and so people brought me tablets and color crayons and pencils and stuff like that. -

$UFKLWHFWXUDO Liefooghe, M. 2019. Buildings for Bodies of Work: The Artist Museum After the Death and Return of the Author. Architectural Histories, +LVWRULHV 7(1): 12, pp. 1–13. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/ah.296 RESEARCH ARTICLE Buildings for Bodies of Work: The Artist Museum After the Death and Return of the Author Maarten Liefooghe Critiques of the cult of artists, life-and-work narratives, and the authority of authors over the meaning of their works not only unsettle the conventions of literary and art historical studies. They also challenge the importance of the artist museum and its architecture. Adopting Roland Barthes’ discussions of the ‘death’ and ‘return of the author’ of the late 1960s and early 1970s as a critical lens, this article examines how the architecture of artist museums reflects and contributes to the discursive construction of the resilient figure of the artist-author. To do so, the article compares the cultist make-up of the 19th- century Thorvaldsen Museum-Mausoleum (opened in 1848) with the resolutely work-centred museums of Van Gogh (1973) and Roger Raveel (1999). The architecture of the last two examples is significantly different, however. The Van Gogh Museum seemingly negates its monographic orientation, while the Raveel Museum amends a white cube logic with a reserved interpretation of artistic individuality and site-boundedness. Parallel to the institutional interpretation of a museum’s monographic mission, and the curators’ representation of the artist-life-work nexus in exhibitions, architecture is yet another element in a museum’s assemblage of an artist presented as a dead or revived author to its visitors. -
Vincent Van Gogh in Arles
VINCENT VAN GOGH IN ARLES “Van Gogh sur la route de Tarascon” Known also as “The painter on his way to work”, July 1888, 48 x 44 cm Formerly in the Kaiser-Friedrich-Museum, Magdeburg, Germany (Destroyed by fire in 1945) https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Vincent_Van_Gogh_0013.jpg A Walk-Around of Selected Sites L. M. Boring Membre de l’Association des Artistes Alpicois, Le Pecq 28 February 2019 Vincent Van Gogh arrived in Arles by train on Monday, February 20, 1888, with an idea to found an artist colony in the south “Wishing to see a different light, thinking that looking at nature under a bright sky might give us a better idea of the Japanese way of feeling and drawing. Wishing also to see this stronger sun, because one could not understand Delacroix’s pictures from the point of view of execution and technique without knowing it, and because one feels that the colors of the prism are veiled in the mist of the North.” Oddly and by happenstance, when he arrived, he found the countryside covered in snow, and among his first paintings were soft landscapes of snow covered fields. He found lodging in the Hotel-Restaurant Carrel, but his stay ended badly over a billing dispute after only two months. Vincent signed a lease on May 1st for a small four-room two-story semi-detached house on the Place Lamartine, not far from the train station. Its stucco exterior was bright ochre, and it became known by Van Gogh’s paintings as La Maison Jaune, the Yellow House. -
The Sea. a Tribute to Jan Hoet & Collection Study III: Art in Europe
Mara de Wachter, Ellen. "The Sea. A Tribute to Jan Hoet & Collection Study III: Art in Europe After 1968,” Frieze.com, December 15, 2014. 'Collection Study III: Art in Europe after 1968', exhibition view There we were: a damp shrivel of critics tramping along a rainy beach in the Belgian town of Ostend, hoping for an epiphany. We were on our way to see the artist Kris Martin’s newly commissioned Altar (2014), part of ‘The Sea. A Tribute to Jan Hoet’, a cit ywide project that grew out of an exhibition, ‘The Sea’, which the Belgian curator Jan Hoet was working on when he died in February 2014. In his last days, Hoet handed the project over to Mu.ZEE’s director, Philip Van den Bossche, and a small team of curators, who assembled a show of over 200 works in the museum and site-specific installations across town. As we approached Martin’s sculpture, a metal frame planted in the sand resolved into a shape resembling the Ghent Altarpiece (1432), Hubert and Jan Van Eyck’s Northern Renaissance masterpiece. Martin’s empty structure looked like a derelict billboard facing and framing the sea, out of which the pictorial content – so vital to the history of art in this Flemish region – had been dropped in favour of a view of nature itself. But the sacred tenor of the altarpiece remained, in spite of the disclaimer Martin gave us: ‘I am a believer but I don’t bother anyone with that.’ Some 60 kilometres away, in the exhibition ‘Collection Study III: Art in Europe after 1968’ at S.M.A.K. -
