Because I have not read every single title here and have relied on other peoples input, you may on occasion find a title that is not appropriate for the intended genre....please do let me know and I will remove it, just as if you find a title that needs to be added...that is appreciated as well.

  • Fantastic Art Revisited: Exhibiting Old Masters & Contemporary Art
    Fantastic Art Revisited: Exhibiting Old Masters & Contemporary Art A symposium presented by Nicholas Hall and Yuan Fang in conjunction with the exhibition at David Zwirner Endless Enigma: Eight Centuries of Fantastic Art Saturday Afternoon October 27, 2018 The Kitchen 512 W 19th Street, New York RSVP required for entry. Please email [email protected] or telephone +1 212-772-9100 Please arrive promptly as no one shall be seated once the presentation begins Fantastic Art Revisited: Exhibiting Old Masters and Contemporary Art is a symposium organized by Nicholas Hall and Yuan Fang, to take place on the closing day of the accompanying exhibition Endless Enigma: Eight Centuries of Fantastic Art at David Zwirner. The symposium brings into focus the legacy of Alfred H. Barr Jr.’s 1936 MoMA exhibition Fantastic Art, Dada, Surrealism. A key point of reference for Endless Enigma, Barr’s exhibition brought art by Dada and Surrealist artists into the context of what he called ‘fantastic art’ by European Old Masters, whose works displayed unexpected thematic and formal relationships with those of the avant- garde. It was, in fact, one of the earliest modern museum exhibitions to explore the continuous conversation between art of the past and art of the present – a dialogue that has enjoyed increasing popularity in recent years across the museum and commercial art world. The half-day event will consist of presentations by curators and academics from leading European and American institutions. Divided into two sessions, the presentations will cover a diverse range of topics referencing a single work, subject or concept touched upon in Endless Enigma; the first session explores the earlier history of fantastic art, while the following session presents topics pertaining to museology and display.
