Notações para pensar a obra de Cristian Segura ROSÂNGELA MIRANDA CHEREM O século XX viu emergir uma linhagem de artistas inquietos e proliferantes que não podem ser reconhecidos por uma unidade temática nem estilística. A esta linhagem pertencem nomes que vão, por exemplo, de Duchamp, Joseph Beuys, Bruce Nauman, Anselm Kiefer e Francis Alÿs, até artistas brasileiros como Flávio de Carvalho, Lygia Pape e Hélio Oiticica. Em comum, têm o fato de utilizar diversos materiais e procedimentos, através de gestos onde as implicações sobre a linguagem e sua materialidade se encontram em inces- sante experimentação, embora cada um a sua maneira, apresente diferentes processos, cujas sutilezas remetem ao problema da produção e articulação de sentidos. Assim, é um modus operandi que os aproxima, como é também um fio invisível que permite lê-los, reconhecendo uma espécie de poder da obra enquanto portadora do movimento de protensão e retenção, espaça- mento e desejo de presença, clausura e exterioridade do tempo-espaço. Cristian Segura (Tandil, Argentina, 1976) é um destes artistas. Graduado em desenho em meados dos anos 90 pelo Centro Polivalente de Arte da cidade onde nasceu e mora, recorre aos mais diferentes suportes e meios, e vem apresentando seus objetos, instalações e vídeos em exposições individuais e coletivas, tanto em seu país como em outros, incluindo Brasil, Chile, Estados Unidos e Espanha, além de México e Cuba no ano de 2012. Dono de um percurso inquieto e em permanente movência, os limites de sua investigação redefinem o seu próprio horizonte, permitindo reconhecer suas noções ope- ratórias e seu processo de fatura em permanente deslocamento. Tomando a questão do espaço como um problema a ser pensado do ponto de vista 13 conceitual e plástico, seus trabalhos percorrem as cidades, problematizando a receber o grande prêmio da XIV Bienal Internacional de São Paulo em seus ambientes expositivos e implicando desde os museus até o ateliê do 1977.

One of them is my early stabs at original scholarship, and the thoughtful guidance of people among whom I am lucky to be able to test my ideas. I am indebted to those who have been important to the formation of this project, but – since I see this project only as a beginning – also to the formation of me as a scholar. First among them is my advisor, George Flaherty, who has been generous with his time, candid with his thoughts, and challenging but encouraging at every juncture. This project has benefited enormously from careful readings by him and Professor Ann Reynolds. They have been intellectual models and, along with other faculty including Cherise Smith, Andrea Giunta, Linda Henderson, and Jacqueline Barnitz, instrumental in identifying the big questions that animate my thinking and writing about art.

  • Contemporary Argentine Art and Ecological Crises
    CONTEMPORARY ARGENTINE ART AND ECOLOGICAL CRISES AN ABSTRACT SUBMITTED ON THE 18 DAY OF APRIL 2013 TO THE DEPARTMENTS OF THE HISTORY OF ART AND LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS OF TULANE UNIVERSITY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– LISA CROSSMAN APPROVED: ______________________ THOMAS F. REESE, Ph.D. DIRECTOR ______________________ MICHAEL PLANTE, Ph.D. ______________________ ANTONIO GOMEZ, Ph.D. ______________________ FLORENCIA BAZZANO- NELSON, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation explores contemporary Argentine art that has responded to local environmental issues and global ecological crises. This text focuses on diverse works produced between the 1960s and the present by artists based in La Plata and Buenos Aires. The projects analyzed in this study reveal the complexity of the concepts of nature, earth, land, environment and ecological crisis in contemporary society. They expose a series of interrelated issues and layers through which these concepts are defined. In order to designate the major approaches to ecological crises adopted by these artists, this study is divided into three sections, which denote distinct artistic methods and values: raising awareness: fighting against urban degradation; recuperation; and exploration. An analysis of individual works in relation to their central methods and contexts reveals a series of convergences and divergences. I argue that my selection of artists’ works contended with the conflict caused by industrial development and neoliberal economic policies and/or reconsidered the concept of nature and individuals’ relationship to it, shifting the dialogue about the environment to questions of place, engagement and adaptability. Collectively these artists’ works present a multifaceted image of the environment and its relationship to people, which is shaped by both the nuances of a particular location and each site’s or artist’s connection to a broader international context.

  • Diango Hernández Cuba 1970 Lives and Works Between Düsseldorf and Havana
    DOWNLOADED FROM HTTP://WWW.DIANGOHERNANDEZ.COM Diango Hernández Cuba 1970 Lives and works between Düsseldorf and Havana “The art of Diango Hernández defies easy categorization. Although much of his work is inspired by his experiences of Cuba – where he was born in 1970 and lived until the age of 33 - he is not an émigré artist in the vein of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn or Joseph Brodsky. And while many of his projects are concerned with displacement and origin, his work does not sit comfortably within the genre of diasporic art. Hernández makes Conceptual art yet carefully constructs pieces by hand like a craftsman. He is as much an inventor drawing up plans for alternative systems as he is an explorer mapping out newly discovered territories. And whilst he is most certainly a storyteller, it is never quite clear which story he is telling. Hernández can be a collector of personal paraphernalia and diaries one year, and a Minimalist painter or a sculptor using found objects the next.” Timotheus Vermeulen on the installation, sculptures and drawings of Diango Hernández for Frieze magazine Dec. 2014 Diango Hernández Awards and residencies 2016 Diango Hernández and Anne Pöhlmann as lonelyfingers, Artist in residence at Lodgers (MHKA), Antwerp, Belgium 2014 Diango Hernández, Artist in residence at Salzamt, Linz, Austria 2013 Best special exhibition of the year 2013.

  • Trama: Artists' Initiatives and the Politics of Autogestión In
    Trama: Artists’ Initiatives and the Politics of Autogestión in Contemporary Argentina Iberia Pérez González A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Philosophy and Art History University of Essex December 2015 ABSTRACT This dissertation analyzes the unprecedented phenomenon of autogestión which proliferated in the Argentine contemporary art scene in the aftermath of the economic crisis and popular revolts of December 2001. Premised on the notion that the crisis encompassed significant transformations in all spheres of life, the thesis examines the key role of artists’ initiatives based on autogestión in the reconfigurations within the art field. By focusing on the specific case of Trama – a project for cooperation between artists that evolved into a national and international network of artists’ initiatives (2000–2005) –, the study argues that autogestión became a legitimate artistic practice that gained visibility and strength within the artistic landscape in Argentina in the post-crisis period. As such, it challenges local art historical discourses which, all too often, limit discussions of the political to a rhetoric of art activism or artists’ collectives. Drawing on Henri Lefebvre’s multifaceted conceptualization of autogestión, the study also aims to reinvest the term with its political connotations: autonomy, democracy, and self-determination. Relying on Lefebvre’s theoretical framework as an heuristic tool, it examines the ways in which Trama functioned as a political strategy by enacting ethical concerns and values, and by generating a set of conditions within the art field with regard to the social, the subjective and the spatial; these are analyzed in turn in the thesis.

Arte de Sistemas: Conceptual Art and Politics in Argentina by Ionit Behar The word system, like any other technical word taken from colloquial speech, has many meanings; it is imprecise. Though this lack of precision in a technical word might initially seem dangerous, it is, in fact, often useful because it allows ideas to flourish while they are still vague; it allows connections to be made between comment ideas yet to be explored; and it allows those ideas to be extended and broadened instead of circumscribed and confined by a premature definition and precision.
