RUTH WOLF - REHFELDT PRESS SELECTION ARTFORUM OCTOBER / NOV 2020 for American culture as Black culture, telling open secrets about lives REVIEWS rendered both highly visible and unseen. In “Segregation in the South,” 1956, the first of two series featured in the show, Parks chronicled the racially divided Deep South. We see a family dressed in their elegant best—hats and dresses and starched white shirts—at a Nashville bus station under a sign reading colored BUENOS AIRES life in captivity; the work is timely in a moment characterized by pre- waiting room. Elsewhere, children dressed in fire-engine-red outfits ventative isolation and an urgent need for the social reinsertion of those queue for ice cream under the colored sign. An old white woman who’ve been imprisoned. Florencia Levy’s Tierra de ciervos (Deer “Pensar todo de nuevo” serves them. The store’s brick wall is painted blinding white. Color Land), 2017, is represented by a photograph of an artificial lake of ROLF ART whispers its punishing difference, with the injustice repeated so often— radioactive waste in northern China. Suspected of espionage, the art- white only, lots for colored—that it almost vanishes. The proliferation of online viewing rooms and live streaming since the ist was arrested for taking the picture; the second part of the work, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Thornton, Mobile, Alabama, another work global spread of Covid-19 has challenged us to rethink the time and accessible through a QR code, is made up of shaky footage of her from the series, shows an elderly couple sitting together on a velveteen space of the exhibition. -

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. -

Uneasy Bodies, Femininity and Death: Representing the Female Corpse in Fashion Photography and Selected Contemporary Artworks
Uneasy bodies, femininity and death: Representing the female corpse in fashion photography and selected contemporary artworks. by Thelma van Rensburg 88270442 Dissertation submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for MASTERS OF ARTS degree in FINE ARTS In the DEPARTMENT OF VISUAL ARTS FACULTY OF HUMANITIES UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA SUPERVISOR: Dr Johan Thom August 2016 © University of Pretoria THELMA VAN RENSBURG ABSTRACT This mini-dissertation serves as a framework for my own creative practice. In this research paper my intention is to explore, within a feminist reading, representations of the female corpse in fashion photography and art. The cultural theorist Stuart Hall’s theories on the concept of representation are utilised to critically analyse and interogate selected images from fashion magazines, which depicts the female corpse in an idealised way. Such idealisation manifests in Western culture, in fashion magazines, as expressed in depictions of the attractive/ seductive/fine-looking female corpse. Fashion photographs that fit this description are critically contrasted and challenged to selected artworks by Penny Siopis and Marlene Dumas, alongside my own work, to explore how the female corpse can be represented, as strategy to undermine the aesthetic and cultural objectification of the female body. Here the study also explores the selected artists’ utilisation of the abject and the grotesque in relation to their use of artistic mediums and modes of production as an attempt to create ambiguous and conflicting combinations of attraction and repulsion (the sublime aesthetic of delightful horror), thereby confronting the viewer with the notion of the objectification of the decease[d] feminine body as object to-be-looked-at. -

Courtesy the artist. Photo: Amunga Eshuchi. Right: The Otolith Group, Hydra Decapita (film still), 2010. Courtesy the artists New York, NY, July 9, 2013—This fall, The Studio Museum in Harlem is thrilled to present The Shadows Took Shape, a dynamic interdisciplinary exhibition exploring contemporary art through the lens of Afrofuturist aesthetics. Coined in 1994 by writer Mark Dery in his essay “Black to the Future,” the term “Afrofuturism” refers to a creative and intellectual genre that emerged as a strategy to explore science fiction, fantasy, magical realism and pan-Africanism. With roots in the avant-garde musical stylings of sonic innovator Sun Ra (born Herman Poole Blount, 1914–1993), Afrofuturism has been used by artists, writers and theorists as a way to prophesize the future, redefine the present and reconceptualize the past. The Shadows Took Shape will be one of the few major museum exhibitions to explore the ways in which this form of creative expression has been adopted internationally and highlight the range of work made over the past twenty-five years. On view at The Studio Museum in Harlem from November 14, 2013 to March 9, 2014, the exhibition draws its title from an obscure Sun Ra poem and a posthumously released series of recordings. -
