The project has its roots in the first Art of Management and Organization Conference in London in 2002, with successive conferences held in Paris and Krakow. From those events emerged an international network of academics, writers, artists, consultants and managers, all involved in exploring and experimenting with art in the context of management and organizational research. The Aesthesis Project will be developing extensive research and artistic projects internationally, with academic research fellows and associate creative practitioners, publications and consultancy.

  • 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.

  • Untranslating the Neo-Avant-Gardes Luke Skrebowski
    INTRODUCTION UnTranslaTing The neo-aVanT-garDes luke skrebowski This guest-edited issue aims to trouble assumptions about the trans- latability of various global neo-avant-gardes into canonical Anglo- American terms and categories—including Pop, Minimalism, Conceptualism—however problematized and expanded they may be in the process. The assumptions I have in mind tend to prop up the cul- tural hegemony of Western institutions by means of a logic of inclusion that serves to reinforce rather than destabilize the status quo. To this end, this issue foregrounds the problem of translation, and specifi cally the fi gure of “the untranslatable,” to address the mediation of global neo-avant-gardes in a more refl exive way, going beyond the often nebu- lous and frequently one-sided notions of “infl uence,” “interaction,” or “contact” that continue to characterize much of the discourse on the global neo-avant-gardes. The notion of the untranslatable is borrowed from Barbara Cassin, via Emily Apter and Jacques Lezra, and is developed here for comparative work in, but also in a certain sense against, global art his- tory. Cassin’s multilingual philosophical lexicon Vocabulaire européen des philosophies: Dictionnaire des intraduisibles (2004) consists of a select number of terms drawn from particular national and linguistic philosophical traditions which are chosen precisely for their “untrans- latability,” a term that, as Cassin insists, “n’implique nullement que les termes en question . ne soient pas traduits et ne puissent pas 4 © 2018 ARTMargins and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology doi:10.1162/ARTM_e_00206 Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/artm_e_00206 by guest on 26 September 2021 l’être—l’intraduisible c’est plutôt ce qu’on ne cesse pas de (ne pas) traduire.” (“In no way implies that the terms in question .

Look carefully at the image above and identify the different, lines, shapes, and forms of both GAlexander Calder’s sculpture and the architecture of LACMA’s built environ- ment. What is the proportion of the artwork to the buildings? What types of balance do you see? Following are images of artworks from LACMA’s collection. As you explore these works, look for the lines, seek the shapes, find the patterns, and exercise your problem-solving skills. Use or adapt the discussion questions to your students’ learning styles and abilities. 1 Language of the Visual Arts and Geometry __________________________________________________________________________________________________ LINE, SHAPE, FORM, PATTERN, SYMMETRY, SCALE, AND PROPORTION ARE THE BUILDING blocks of both art and math. Geometry offers the most obvious connection between the two disciplines. Both art and math involve drawing and the use of shapes and forms, as well as an understanding of spatial concepts, two and three dimensions, measurement, estimation, and pattern. Many of these concepts are evident in an artwork’s composition, how the artist uses the elements of art and applies the principles of design. Problem-solving skills such as visualization and spatial reasoning are also important for artists and professionals in math, science, and technology.

    Geometry and Art, What a Concept! Mayra Muller-Schmidt Sharpstown Middle School WHAT WILL THEY SEE? “Now class, visualize a cube . .” Some pupils will immediately think of a piece of ice; others can see a three-dimensional cubed shape in their mind’s eye; yet other children will still see a flat square. An ordinary cube is made up of six squares; however, so many students fail to establish an articulate difference between a square and a cube. Geometric forms are numerous and perhaps confusing to a young mind that hasn’t yet formulated a real sense of perceiving dimension, vocabulary, or comprehension of forms. Connecting Different Cognitive Skills Can Connect the Dots . My interest in integrating and emphasizing geometry is twofold. Geometric shapes are some of the strongest forms used in modern art. Geometry has a strong history that, throughout the centuries, has been involved, integrated, and eventually indispensable in art and architecture. Artists have studied geometry in order to draw angles, proportion, and perspective, in order to illustrate or emote the illusion of realism. Geometric forms, currently, are explored and seen everyday in our surroundings. Geometry is an important subject, one which plays a strong part as a tool in art and needs to be emphasized at some point in a person’s education. Students can benefit from the awareness that art and math share a significant part together. Surely, a secondary reason for weaving geometry into an art unit is to strengthen and complement both subject matter skills. The practice and repetition of maneuvering shapes and forms and then relating them to math vocabulary will enhance knowledge for those who already have a strong sense for forms, angles, and dimension.

The art movements rising with postmodernism from 20th century onwards caused the object which is the main subject of art to bear different meanings at a different place and a different time. In the age of postmodernism art is everywhere and in everything and thus the limitation to image cannot be considered.The starting point of the conceptual art which developed in opposition to commercialization of art and the formalist art theory has been examined in this study. The information and emerging findings as a result of the scanning of related literature, one of qualitative research methods, has been assessed within this context.
