Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract The rise of neo-conservatism defined the critical context of many appraisals of artistic work produced in downtown New York in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Although initial reviews of the scene were largely enthusiastic, subsequent assessments of artistic work from this period have been largely negative. Artists like Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Kenny Scharf have been assessed primarily in terms of gentrification, commodification, and political commitment relying upon various theoretical assumptions about social processes. The conclusions reached have primarily centred upon the lack of resistance by these artists to post­ industrial capitalism in its various manifestations.

  • YOU KILLED ME FIRST the Cinema of Transgression Press Release
    YOU KILLED ME FIRST The Cinema of Transgression Press Release February 19 – April 9, 2012 Opening: Saturday, February 18, 2012, 5–10 pm Press Preview: Friday, February 17, 2012, 11 am Karen Finley, Tessa Hughes-Freeland, Richard Kern, Lung Leg, Lydia Lunch, Kembra Pfahler, Casandra Stark, Tommy Turner, David Wojnarowicz, Nick Zedd “Basically, in one sentence, give us the definition of the ‚Cinema of Transgression’.” Nick Zedd: “Fuck you.” In the 1980s a group of filmmakers emerged from the Lower East Side, New York, whose shared aims Nick Zedd later postulated in the Cinema of Transgression manifesto: „We propose … that any film which doesn’t shock isn’t worth looking at. … We propose to go beyond all limits set or prescribed by taste, morality or any other traditional value system shackling the minds of men. … There will be blood, shame, pain and ecstasy, the likes of which no one has yet imagined.“ While the Reagan government mainly focused on counteracting the decline of traditional family values, the filmmakers went on a collision course with the conventions of American society by dealing with life in the Lower East Side defined by criminality, brutality, drugs, AIDS, sex, and excess. Nightmarish scenarios of violence, dramatic states of mind, and perverse sexual abysses – sometimes shot with stolen camera equipment, the low budget films, which were consciously aimed at shock, provocation, and confrontation, bear witness to an extraordinary radicality. The films stridently analyze a reality of social hardship met with sociopolitical indifference. Although all the filmmakers of the Cinema of Transgression shared a belief in a radical form of moral and aesthetic transgression the films themselves emerged from an individual inner necessity; thus following a very personal visual sense and demonstratively subjective readings of various living realities.

After the inauguration of the Fondation Louis Vuitton in 2014, there is no lack of exciting openings lined up for 2017, notably ‘Lafayette Anticipation’, the Galeries Lafayette foundation. Contemporary art can also be viewed at key annual events like RY the FIAC (international contemporary art fair), Art Paris Art Fair, Nuit blanche (a cultural all-nighter) and the Monumenta exhibition at the Grand Palais, and throughout the year at numerous spectacular exhibitions in institutions, as well as in leading or lesser-known galleries, art foundations and smaller venues. Paris, the contemporary art capital, is continuing its cultural homage to Colombia in 2017 through various events as part of the France-Colombia Year celebrations. The City of Paris, now in 2.0 mode, remains a flourishing source for digital art. In 2017 the focus is on art brut with the Outsider Fair, multiple objects with Paris Multiples, and Entertainment Arts with Art Ludique–le Musée. The city is more and more concerned with the theme of the environment, seen through the prism of contemporary creation. And Paris has become a recognized platform for street art, which is both highly popular and increasingly present in parks and districts, with works of art that blend seamlessly into the landscape.
