MACBA Coll Artworks English RZ.Indd
of these posters carry the titles of Georges Perec’s novels, but Ignasi Aballí very few were actually made into Flms. We might, however, Desapariciones II (1 of 24), 2005 seem to remember some of these as Flms, or perhaps simply imagine we remember them. A cinema poster, aker it has accomplished its function of announcing a Flm, is all that’s lek of the Flm: an objective, material trace of its existence. Yet it also holds a subjective trace. It carries something of our own personal history, of our involvement with the cinema, making us remember certain aspects of Flms, maybe even their storylines. As we look at these posters we begin to create our own storylines, the images, text and design suggesting di©erent possibilities to us. By fabricating a tangible trace of Flms that were never made, Desaparicions II brings the Flms into existence and it is the viewer who begins to create, even remember these movies. The images that appear in the posters have all been taken from artworks made by Aballí. As the artist has commented: ‘In the case of Perec, I carried out a process of investigation to construct a Fction that enabled me to relate my work to his and generate a hybrid, which is something directly constructed by me, though it includes real elements I found during the documentation stage.’ 3 Absence, is not only evident in the novel La Disparition, but is also persistent in the work Aballí; mirrors obliterated with Tipp-Ex, photographs of the trace paintings have lek once they have been taken down. -
Orshi Drozdik
Press release ORSHI DRODZIK It’s All Over Now Baby Blue Opening Wednesday October 2th from 18.00 to 20.00 in presence of the artist Exhibition October 2 - November 27,2013 The Gandy gallery is pleased to announce the first solo exhibition by Orshi Drodzik at the gallery in Bratislava. The work of Orshi Drozdik (b,1946,Hungary) has played a significant role in the history of women’s art across the international arts scene and has greatly influenced a generation of artists to follow. Drozdik moved to Amsterdam in 1978, after graduating from the College of Fine Arts, in 1977 as a graphics major, and two years later she based herself in New York City. At present Drozdik works both in New York and Budapest, and is a professor at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. She has exhibited at many of the foremost galleries across Hungary and abroad, and articles assessing her shows have been published in numerous prestigious art journals. Yet, Drozdik has continually engaged with the contemporary art scene in Hungary. The 1998 exhibition, article, and textbook titled Strolling Brains, for instance, greatly contributed to the spread of feminism in the country. Drozdik began her career in tandem with the Hungarian post-conceptual movement of the 1970s. As a harbinger she created her own theoretical and critical point of view, which was unique in the seventies cultural environment of Budapest. In the 80s, at the time of her emigration, building upon of her 70s working methode, she embraced poststructuralist critical discourse, that helped her to develop, the installation series, Adventure in Technos Dystopium, a theoretical and visual deconstruction of scientific representation. -
The End of History Or the Beginning of the Future? Video Art Comments on a Paradigm Shift
Austrian Cultural Forum New York 1989: The End of History or the Beginning of the Future? Video Art Comments on a Paradigm Shift. WALL TEXTS MARINA ABRAMOVIC (*1946 in Belgrade, Serbia, lives and works in New York City, USA) In her film “Count on Us: Only Chorus” Abramovic conducts a children’s choir singing a “hymn” to the UN in Serbo-Croatian as a symbol of understanding among nations. It was in former Yugoslavia in particular that hopes for a better and new world of brotherhood were brutally destroyed by the specter of nationalism, racism and war. The work can also be understood to unveil the cynicism of the post communist language surrounding the end of history. Marina is a performance artist who began her career in the early 1970s. Active for over three decades, she has recently begun to describe herself as the “grandmother of performance art”. Her work explores the relationship between the performer and audience, the limits of the body, and the possibilities of the mind. Marina was a student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Belgrade from 1965-70. She completed her post-graduate studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, Croatia in 1971. From 1973-1975 she taught at the Academy of Fine Arts at Novi Sad, while implementing her first solo performances. She is a performance artist who began her career in the early 1970s. Active for over three decades, she has recently begun to describe herself as the “grandmother of performance art”.

Desire is one of our most powerful driving forces. Our way of seeing and our art are formed by that and reflect on our desire” – said Orshi Drozdik in a recent interview concern- ing the topic of female identity and the use of her own body as a model and subject matter. Inevitably, she was the first Hungarian artist, who researched and introduced the female aspect in her work, and who intended to summarize the already existing but fragmented endeavours in this field, and who even edited a book (Walking Brains) with writings by leading authors of feminist theory. She always regarded her artistic program as a mission, which is rooted in her Hungarian experience but obviously became more conscious and sophisticated by the knowledge she gained while living abroad. This is the first time that we can follow Orshi Drozdik’s professional career, which began in the seventies with performances, photo series, graphic works, and continued with powerful figural paintings and installations. Even at this early stage, her obsession with the human body was evident. Later, while living in Amsterdam and New York, she began an investigation of such diverse subjects as the utopists of the French Enlightenment, the history of medicine, and the botanical taxonomic system of Carolus Linnaeus. -

Experiments in Art and Music in Eastern Europe 1957-1984
Experiments in Ar t and Music in Eastern Eu rope 1957-19 84 26 June – 25 August 2013 Curated by David Crowley and Daniel Muzyczuk Cover: Drawing of the Foksal Gallery, action entitled 5x , published in Program Galerii Foksal PSP, courtesy of Foksal Gallery and Visual Arts Studio. Our purpose was to create an apparatus rather than a finite work. The apparatus’s functioning depended on the participation of the viewer (‘this entrance card authorises participation and co creation’, the invitation said). By integrating visual and aural action and encouraging their manipulation by the participant, we wanted to produce unexpected situations and emotions. 1. 19 September 1966 The invited artists – Cornelius Cardew, David Bedford, John Tilbury – performed Le Monte Young’s Poem . Additional instruments: cello, contact microphone, accordion, transistor radio. 2. 20 September Additional instruments: contact microphone, zither. 3. 21 September Additional instruments: metronome, zither (amplified). A photographic flash lamp was also used. 4. 22 September Additional instruments: music box, amplified metronome (the background formed by the metronome’s rhythm being occasionally interrupted by the music box). A gas gun was also used. 5. 23 September Additional instruments: amplified music box. Shepherd’s bells and trumpets were also used. Each performance had an audience of forty to seventy people. Starting from 21.00, visitors were let in, in groups of ten, at fifteen -minute intervals. From start to end, each performance was different for each participant. The start began at the moment of entry when the installation was set in motion and the moment of departure was dependent on the decision of the individual. -
Communist’ Ghosts
ARTISTIC RUPTURES AND THEIR ‘COMMUNIST’ GHOSTS On the post-communist condition as threshold experience in art from and in Eastern Europe Magda Schmukalla PhD in Psychosocial Studies 2017 Birkbeck, University of London 1 To my parents 2 I hereby declare that this thesis is entirely my own work and contributions from other persons are fully cited and referenced. 3 ABSTRACT This thesis theorizes and explores the post-communist condition as a threshold experience. While scholars in the social sciences and humanities have often criticized the notion of post-communism for reproducing discursively the East/West divide, this study argues that it is precisely from within the post-communist threshold that the current hegemonic role of the West can be effectively challenged. I begin by showing how the post-communist condition captures an intense experience of being undone and how, with the abrupt breakdown of a communist order and a gradual return to a capitalist structure, the main pillars of modern subjectivities in Eastern European countries have been fundamentally disturbed. As a consequence ‘post-communist sites’ have turned into places or relations in which ghostly relics of past experiences suddenly crop up with no ideological structure being strong enough to control their haunting. The ghosts returning in this state of collective uncertainty do, however, not only disturb today’s Eastern European site but also, I argue, make the Western subject feel haunted by its ‘post-communist Eastern European other’. My aim is further to explore this particular threshold experience on its own terms. In this study the entry point to its transitory realm is therefore neither theory, nor quantitative or qualitative data but the elusive, contradictory, and often very personal realm of contemporary art. -

A rendező elv első szinten a Kar jelenlegi Intézeti struktúrája volt, ezen belül a munkatársak ábécé rendben sorolva jelennek meg a jegyzékben. Az egyes tételek fordított kronológikus sorrendben szerepelnek az egyes szerzők neve alatt. A munkatársak publikációs adatait arra az időszakra vettük fel, amikor a Kar munkatársai voltak. Az adatgyűjtést elsősorban a Magyar Tudományos Művek Tára (mtmt.hu) adatbázisból és az Egyetem által megjelentetett évkönyvek, értesítők stb. felhasználásával végezték az Intéze- tek munkatársai. Köszönet illeti őket munkájukért, kitartásukért. Egy-egy szerző adatai új oldalon kezdődnek. A tételeket szerzőnként a következő alfejeze- tekre osztottuk: 1. Könyv; 2. Jegyzet, tankönyv, taneszköz; 3. Könyvfejezet; 4. Szócikk; 5. Ta- nulmány, cikk; 6. Szerkesztés; 7. Fordítás. A tételek a pontos beazonosításhoz szükséges ada- tokat tartalmazza. A tételek sorszámozása szerzőnként újraindul és egy-egy alfejezeten belül is újrakezdődik. Tisztában vagyunk vele, hogy a munka nem teljes, egyes tételek felvételén is lehet vitat- kozni, annak tudományossága okán.
