Abstract. Practice is defined as the exercise of a method or profession, and a treatise. Practise is defined as to practise tricks or artifices upon; to act upon by artifice so as to induce to do or believe something: to impose upon, delude: to make trial of, practically. The practise that my practice reconstitutes was characterised by its executor, Duchamp, not as irony, ironie, but ironisme, the deployment of irony in debate. Socratic irony is defined as feigning ignorance in order to confute an enemy in debate. Irony is saying the opposite of what you mean. Duchamp's practice of the practise of ironisme did not then manifest itself in an art questioning its own conditions, by dissemblance, as is popularly believed, although it appeared to. The 'ironic' art which has been taken as the product of Duchamp's practice was then merely an allegorical appearance, since allegory, saying one thing and meaning something else, is cousin-germane to irony. Duchamp criticism has been informed by such misconceptions to the extent that, as late as 1989, David Hopkins, in his review of Kuenzli and Naumann's Marcel Duchamp: Artist of the Century could still point to the need for "a full length study of Duchamp which convincingly contextualises his de-essentializing project, rather than blithely using it as a pretext for exercising contemporary critical strategies." 1 Table of Contents.

[ = Content.] Traces by means of which a donkey is lead. [= Allegorical appearance.] 1. The structure of the text The following text is not a description of the practice, but participates in it, as an expression of the fonn of the practice. The structure of that text is predicated on the necessity to inscribe the indetenninate status of its subject, Duchamp's subject and practice, in the fonn of a practice which consequently assumes that indetenninate status. Duchamp's subject matter was the Occult, whose indetenninate status, in 1912, rested on the question of the legitimacy of competing claims to its epistemological grounding, from science, pyschology, popular occultism, state religion, etc. This indetenninacy was an attribute of the antinomy inscribed in the shift in the grounding of Duchamp's practice, post-Munich 1912, which constituted a transfer in the site of truth from the sovereign authorship of the divine 'Orphic' artist to the higher authority deferred to in enunciation by a mere 'media-mystic' being. This antinomian indetenninacy was itself rhetorically inscribed in the shift in the grounding of my fonner practice as a consequence of its submission to the academic protocols of a Doctorate in Research as Fine Art Practice. This fonner practice was prompted by an art historical enquiry taking for its pretext an observation - of the fact of a radical change in fonn of Duchamp's post­ Munich 1912 enunciation. This observation required no special art historical or 'artistic' training, expertise or intuition. Thus it is the process of the inscription of one antinomy within another which my practice seeks to elucidate. The epistemological antinomy arising from Duchamp's post-Munich practice appears to have been noticed by one person other than myself, Jean Claire. 2 The engine of the multi-layered antinomy which the form of my practice subsumes is homophonic coincidence, the working tool which Duchamp acquired from Raymond Roussel; 'antinomy' is a homophonic inversion of Antimony - Stibium, Stibnite, the alchemist's 'Wolf in the Crucible', the powdered essence of kohl, Baudelaire's black eye-make-up, a veritable Powder of Projection, if ever there was one: the word 'kohl' derives from the Arabic, al-koh'l, (collyrium,) meaning 'distilled essence', from which, fortunately for Apollinaire, the word alcool derives. Alchemical transmutation, a metaphor for spiritual enlightenment via initiation and intuition, is the subject of Duchamp's work post-1910, and of Apollinaire's Alcools. The deferral of the epistemological grounding of Duchamp's practice to the higher authority of the Philo sophia Perennis, which his post-Munich change of enunciation represents, (confirmed in his abdication of the avant-garde,) was then the pretext for, and requirement of, the deferral of the grounding of my formerly exclusive 'art' practice to the higher authority of the institution of a university within which Fine Art and Art Historical practices cohabit. The indeterminate status ofDuchamp's new practice, inscribing that of his subject, subsequently mistakenly regarded by the critical community as remaining subject to avant-garde aesthetics, is then inscribed in a location of my practice at the interface between the critical practices of Art Historical and Fine Art made institutionally possible by the perpetuation of an epistemological antinomy whose origins, in the 17th century, (coinciding with that ofDuchamp's subject and practice,) resided in the conflicting epistemological claims of the Philosophy of Science and Occult Science on the meaning of experience of the world. Like Duchamp, the translocation of my practice submits the status of intuitively acquired experience and opinion to the rigours of its testing as socially constructed 'objective' knowledge grounded in the factual nature of the historical subject, the sine qua non of the epistemological claims of, in my case, academe, and Duchamp's, (which ever esoteric community whose needs he satisfied.) Thus the praxis, the imbrication of theory in practice, which this translocation affords me, thus legitimises and makes possible the evaluation of the rival claims made by authorial 3 identity and enunciation in Duchamp's own praxis - but only when inscribed rhetorically within my own. It is then apposite that a university, like a Masonic Lodge which, like its namesake, the artist's atelier, is both a meeting place and the company which meets in it, is variously defined as a corporation or community; a whole body, a guild of masters or scholars: a whole body of teachers and students pursuing the higher branches of learning: such persons associated together as a corporate body, having the power to confer degrees or other privileges: and the whole universe. 2. The form of the text. The rhetorical form of Duchamp's parabolic notes, being a model of his practice, is then a model of mine. The authorisation for my writing in different manners came from my supervisor, Alex Parigoris, who simultaneously stressed the character of my public utterances - the one imbricated in the other. Thus the epistemological antinomy expressed in the Fine Art/Art History dichotomy is inscribed in competing analytical, descriptive and discursive forms of expression, a result of which is the privileging of enunciation. For example, in order to inscribe the Rousellian origins ofDuchamp's hypertextual semantic structures, the form of my text must display a promiscuous, and, seemingly, at times, arbitrary, vacillation between different textual fields, through the use of the same architectonic parenthetical devices; it must, for example, assume the right to the" delirium of mutability" haunting the 'onion skins containing onion skins containing onion skins' noted by Hugill in Roussel's texts. It must then also emulate Stirner's method of "proceeding by assertion rather than argument, to insist on rather than demonstrate" noted by Leopold - as, for example, in the" Hegelian expression that property is selfhood (as revealed in the coincidence between) Eigentum and Eigenheidt".

  • Collecting and Conserving Net Art
    Collecting and Conserving Net Art Collecting and Conserving Net Art explores the qualities and characteristics of net art and its influence on conservation practices. By addressing and answering some of the challenges facing net art and providing an exploration of its intersection with conservation, the book casts a new light on net art, conservation, curating and museum studies. Viewing net art as a process rather than as a fixed object, the book considers how this is influenced by and executed through other systems and users. Arguing that these processes and networks are imbued with ambiguity, the book suggests that this is strategically used to create suspense, obfuscate existing systems and disrupt power structures. The rapid obsolescence of hardware and software, the existence of many net artworks within restricted platforms and the fact that artworks often act as assemblages that change or mutate, make net art a challenging case for conservation. Taking the performative and interpretive roles conservators play into account, the book demonstrates how practitioners can make more informed decisions when responding to, critically analyzing or working with net art, particularly software-based processes. Collecting and Conserving Net Art is intended for researchers, academics and postgraduate students, especially those engaged in the study of museum studies, conservation and heritage studies, curatorial studies, digital art and art history. The book should also be interesting to professionals who are involved in the conservation and curation of digital arts, performance, media and software.

  • HARD FACTS and SOFT SPECULATION Thierry De Duve
    THE STORY OF FOUNTAIN: HARD FACTS AND SOFT SPECULATION Thierry de Duve ABSTRACT Thierry de Duve’s essay is anchored to the one and perhaps only hard fact that we possess regarding the story of Fountain: its photo in The Blind Man No. 2, triply captioned “Fountain by R. Mutt,” “Photograph by Alfred Stieglitz,” and “THE EXHIBIT REFUSED BY THE INDEPENDENTS,” and the editorial on the facing page, titled “The Richard Mutt Case.” He examines what kind of agency is involved in that triple “by,” and revisits Duchamp’s intentions and motivations when he created the fictitious R. Mutt, manipulated Stieglitz, and set a trap to the Independents. De Duve concludes with an invitation to art historians to abandon the “by” questions (attribution, etc.) and to focus on the “from” questions that arise when Fountain is not seen as a work of art so much as the bearer of the news that the art world has radically changed. KEYWORDS, Readymade, Fountain, Independents, Stieglitz, Sanitary pottery Then the smell of wet glue! Mentally I was not spelling art with a capital A. — Beatrice Wood1 No doubt, Marcel Duchamp’s best known and most controversial readymade is a men’s urinal tipped on its side, signed R. Mutt, dated 1917, and titled Fountain. The 2017 centennial of Fountain brought us a harvest of new books and articles on the famous or infamous urinal. I read most of them in the hope of gleaning enough newly verified facts to curtail my natural tendency to speculate. But newly verified facts are few and far between.

  • Sampling Real Life: Creative Appropriation in Public Spaces
    Sampling Real Life: Creative Appropriation in Public Spaces Elsa M. Lankford Electronic Media & Film (EMF) Towson University [email protected] I. Introduction Enter an art museum or a library and you will find numerous examples of appropriation, all or most of which were most likely legal at the time. From the birth of copyright and the idea that an author, encompassed as a writer, artist, composer, or musician, is the creator of a completely original work, our legal and moral perceptions of appropriation have changed. Merriam-Webster defines appropriation in multiple ways, two of which apply to the discussion of art and appropriation. The first, “to take exclusive possession of” and the second “to take or make use of without authority or right.”1 The battle over rights and appropriation is not one that is only fought in the courtroom and gallery, it also concerns our own lives. Many aspects of our lives involve appropriation, from pagan holidays appropriated into the Christian calendar to the music we listen to, even to the words we speak or write appropriated from other countries and cultures. As artists, appropriation in many forms makes its way into works of any media. The topic of appropriation leads to a discussion of where our creative ideas come from. They, in some sense, have been appropriated as well. Whether we overhear a snippet of a conversation that ends up woven into a creative work or we take a picture of somebody, unknowingly, as they walk down a tree-shadowed street, we are appropriating life. For centuries, artists have been inspired by public life, and the stories and images of others have been appropriated into their work.

  • PDF the Migration of Literary Ideas: the Problem of Romanian Symbolism
    The Migration of Literary Ideas: The Problem of Romanian Symbolism Cosmina Andreea Roșu ABSTRACT: The migration of symbolists’ ideas in Romanian literary field during the 1900’s occurs mostly due to poets. One of the symbolist poets influenced by the French literature (the core of the Symbolism) and its representatives is Dimitrie Anghel. He manages symbols throughout his entire writings, both in poetry and in prose, as a masterpiece. His vivid imagination and fantasy reinterpret symbols from a specific Romanian point of view. His approach of symbolist ideas emerges from his translations from the French authors but also from his original writings, since he creates a new attempt to penetrate another sequence of the consciousness. Dimitrie Anghel learns the new poetics during his years long staying in France. KEY WORDS: writing, ideas, prose poem, symbol, fantasy. A t the beginning of the twentieth century the Romanian literature was dominated by Eminescu and his epigones, and there were visible effects of Al. Macedonski’s efforts to impose a new poetry when Dimitrie Anghel left to Paris. Nicolae Iorga was trying to initiate a new nationalist movement, and D. Anghel was blamed for leaving and detaching himself from what was happening“ in the” country. But “he fought this idea in his texts making ironical remarks about those“The Landwho were” eagerly going away from native land ( Youth – „Tinereță“, Looking at a Terrestrial Sphere” – „Privind o sferă terestră“, a literary – „Pământul“).

  • CUBISM and ABSTRACTION Background
    015_Cubism_Abstraction.doc READINGS: CUBISM AND ABSTRACTION Background: Apollinaire, On Painting Apollinaire, Various Poems Background: Magdalena Dabrowski, "Kandinsky: Compositions" Kandinsky, Concerning the Spiritual in Art Background: Serial Music Background: Eugen Weber, CUBISM, Movements, Currents, Trends, p. 254. As part of the great campaign to break through to reality and express essentials, Paul Cezanne had developed a technique of painting in almost geometrical terms and concluded that the painter "must see in nature the cylinder, the sphere, the cone:" At the same time, the influence of African sculpture on a group of young painters and poets living in Montmartre - Picasso, Braque, Max Jacob, Apollinaire, Derain, and Andre Salmon - suggested the possibilities of simplification or schematization as a means of pointing out essential features at the expense of insignificant ones. Both Cezanne and the Africans indicated the possibility of abstracting certain qualities of the subject, using lines and planes for the purpose of emphasis. But if a subject could be analyzed into a series of significant features, it became possible (and this was the great discovery of Cubist painters) to leave the laws of perspective behind and rearrange these features in order to gain a fuller, more thorough, view of the subject. The painter could view the subject from all sides and attempt to present its various aspects all at the same time, just as they existed-simultaneously. We have here an attempt to capture yet another aspect of reality by fusing time and space in their representation as they are fused in life, but since the medium is still flat the Cubists introduced what they called a new dimension-movement.

  • The Artwork Caught by the Tail*
    The Artwork Caught by the Tail* GEORGE BAKER If it were married to logic, art would be living in incest, engulfing, swallowing its own tail. —Tristan Tzara, Manifeste Dada 1918 The only word that is not ephemeral is the word death. To death, to death, to death. The only thing that doesn’t die is money, it just leaves on trips. —Francis Picabia, Manifeste Cannibale Dada, 1920 Je m’appelle Dada He is staring at us, smiling, his face emerging like an exclamation point from the gap separating his first from his last name. “Francis Picabia,” he writes, and the letters are blunt and childish, projecting gaudily off the canvas with the stiff pride of an advertisement, or the incontinence of a finger painting. (The shriek of the commodity and the babble of the infant: Dada always heard these sounds as one and the same.) And so here is Picabia. He is staring at us, smiling, a face with- out a body, or rather, a face that has lost its body, a portrait of the artist under the knife. Decimated. Decapitated. But not quite acephalic, to use a Bataillean term: rather the reverse. Here we don’t have the body without a head, but heads without bodies, for there is more than one. Picabia may be the only face that meets our gaze, but there is also Metzinger, at the top and to the right. And there, just below * This essay was written in the fall of 1999 to serve as a catalog essay for the exhibition Worthless (Invaluable): The Concept of Value in Contemporary Art, curated by Carlos Basualdo at the Moderna Galerija Ljubljana, Slovenia.

    Europeana Learning Scenario Title Four Dimensions in Physics and Arts Author(s) Eirini Siotou Summary This is an interdisciplinary learning scenario combing the courses of Physics and Art History. The main objective of the learning scenario is to combine a variety of elements from the two above-mentioned courses in order to examine the dimensions of width, height, depth and time as presented and taught in Physics lessons, from a different perspective the Arts. Through Europeana's art collections students would have the chance to study how the four dimensions of physics have been attributed over the centuries. Finally, they will also investigate the new concepts learned by using an Augmented Reality (AR) app which will give them the chance to “control” time and space variables and make changes to the (virtual) painting of the painter. The teaching approach that will be applied is Inquiry Based Learning as it is the one applied to Physics lessons of Secondary School. This scenario was part of the Erasmus + European Program: Augmented and Virtual Reality in Education.
