Pero esta vez esa sensación quedó incompleta. Acababa de ver a un lado del camino en la escarpa por donde íbamos tres árboles que debían de servir de entrada a un paseo cubierto; no era la primera vez que veía yo aquel dibujo que formaban los tres árboles, y aunque no pude encontrar en mi memoria el lugar de donde parecían haberse escapado, sin embargo, me di cuenta de que me había sido muy familiar en tiempos pasados; de suerte que como mi espíritu titubeó entre un año muy lejano y el momento presente, los alrededores de Balbec vacilaron también, y me entraron dudas de si aquel paseo no era una ficción, Balbec un sitio donde nunca estuve sino en imaginación, la señora de Villeparisis un personaje de novela, y los tres árboles añosos, la realidad esa con que se encuentra uno al alzar la vista del libro que se estaba leyendo y que nos describía un ambiente en el cual se nos figuró que nos hallábamos de verdad.

Cualquiera que haya comprado obras de los ready-made pertenecen a todos®, ya sea un coleccionista privado o un museo público, se ha convertido automáticamente en el autor de dicha obra, formando, de esta manera, parte de la historia del arte. La investigación que nos ocupa aborda la compleja labor de la agencia de relaciones públicas los ready-made pertenecen a todos® y su utilización para actividades curatoriales y para-curatoriales a través de la heteronimia. Este proyecto trata de un artista prácticamente inédito en España: Philippe Thomas, pero más concretamente del período de funcionamiento de su agencia, entre 1987 y 1993. Lo que se desarrolla en esta tesis, además, es el estudio de otras dos tendencias del comisariado internacional igualmente novedosas en el ámbito nacional: la labor del artista comisario y el desarrollo de actividades para-curatoriales por parte del artista comisario. Para ello se centran los esfuerzos en la comprensión de la evolución de las relaciones públicas, la publicidad, el coleccionismo, el artista emprendedor y el artista comisario, así como del contexto histórico y socio-político en que aparece la agencia de relaciones públicas los ready-made pertenecen a todos®. Además, se estudian figuras que le preceden (Marcel Duchamp, Piero Manzoni, Andy Warhol, Marcel Broodthaers, Joseph Kosuth, Fernando Pessoa, Maurice Blanchot o Jean-François Lyotard) y que le han nutrido. Se desarrolla además, en cuanto a los ready-made pertenecen a todos®, un análisis pormenorizada de sus proyectos más importantes (Epreuves d’artistes y Sur un lieu commun, ambos realizados en 1988; Ready mades gehören allen: Ernst Ulrich Hertel, Sabine Schütte y Jay Chiat, Edouard Merino, Insights, desarrollados en 1989; Art & Pub - 1 art et publicité, 1890-1990 y Feux pâles puestos en marcha en 1990; Scusate, ma non abbiamo potuto aspettarvi, Ubergänge, Tyne International realizadas en 1992 y, finalmente, Backstage del 1993), hasta su clausura en la residencia de Donatella Brun y Jay Chiat en 1993. Como resultado de la investigación se observa cómo los proyectos de la agencia pusieron en práctica una topografía crítica discursiva que se realiza a través de la figura de sus clientes (los coleccionistas). Asimismo desarrolló una postura curatorial y para- curatorial de importancia práctica, ya que el carácter histórico liberal de la época, que se enlaza con la creación de la agencia, proyecta mucha de su fuerza política principalmente a través de la esfera de la publicidad y las relaciones públicas. La heteronimia thomasiana se activa en términos de personajes empeñados en sostener una atmosfera colaborativa. La agencia, ampliación del término micro-sociedad, existe por su carácter práctico, real, como empresa que potencia la colectividad, la colaboración entre al menos dos personas (la mediación de la voz) señalando el espacio que la desaparición de Thomas ha dejado vacío y acentuando lo que esta desaparición pone en evidencia. La agencia “es una ficción lógica” (SCHULTZ, 2007, p.84) de nuestra época. 2 ABSTRACT The public relations agency readymades belong to everyone® (1987-1993), inaugurated at Cable Gallery in New York, was created in order to develop projects that consisted in the selling of artistic identities trough the relationship between the artist Philippe Thomas and collectors such as Bertrand Lavier, Georges Verney-Carron, Jacques Salomon, Lidewij Edelkort, Laura Carpenter and Alain Clairet. Anyone who has bought a work from readymades belong to everyone®, be they a private collector or a public museum, was automatically converted in the author of such work, becoming, in this manner, part of Art History. The present research tackles the complex labour of the public relations agency readymades belong to everyone® and its use of curatorial and paracuratorial activities through heteronomy. This dissertation approaches a subject matter never before studied in Spain: Philippe Thomas, more precisely the working period of his agency, between 1987 and 1993. What this thesis develops, furthermore, is the study of two other tendencies of the international curating, equally new in the national field: the work of the artist curator as well as his promotion of paracuratorial activities. To this end, the endeavor is centered in the evolution of public relations, advertising, art collecting, the artist entrepreneur and the artist curator, as well as of the historic and social-politic context in which the public relations agency readymades belong to everyone® appears.

ISSN 1753-9854 TATE’S ONLINE RESEARCH JOURNAL Landmark Exhibitions Issue From Over- to Sub-Exposure: The Anamnesis of Les Immatériaux Antony Hudek Although a number of twentieth-century exhibitions are already hailed as ‘landmark exhibitions’, one major and highly innovative exhibition has eluded the attention of scholars until recently: Les Immatériaux , co-curated in 1985 for the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris by the philosopher Jean-François Lyotard and the design historian and theorist Thierry Chaput. 1 Among its many novel features was the fact that it was the first exhibition in which a philosopher played a leading role, opening the door to many other instances where intellectuals would become ad hoc curators. 2 Instead of the standard sequence of white cubes, Lyotard and Chaput divided the entire fifth floor of the museum with large sheets of uncoloured metal mesh hanging from the ceiling. Contrary to the neutral lighting of most exhibition environments, Les Immatériaux offered a theatrical setting – the work of young stage designer Françoise Michel – which played with stark contrasts between spotlit exhibits and areas of near total darkness.3 In Chaput’s words: ‘Decked in demanding grey, illuminated by improbable lighting, with unpredictable ideas allowed to hover, this hour, this day in this year, suspended, rigorously ordered yet without system, “The Immaterials” exhibit themselves between seeing, feeling and hearing.’ 4 Importantly, Les Immatériaux brought together a striking variety of objects, ranging from the latest industrial robots and personal computers, to holograms, interactive sound installations, and 3D cinema, along with paintings, photographs and sculptures (the latter ranging from an Ancient Egyptian low-relief to works by Dan Graham , Joseph Kosuth and Giovanni Anselmo ).

  • 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.

  • Spring 2019 the State Is Not a Work of Art
    AH 513 | Spring 2019 The State is Not a Work of Art Hans Haacke, Der Bevölkerung, 2000, detail Mondays 3:00‑5:30 | Prof: Blake Stimson | Office hours: Wednesdays 1:00‑2:00 It has been a commonplace for a century now that “to understand the esthetic”—this is John Dewey in 1934 —“one must begin with it in the raw.” Therein lies art’s autonomy, its capacity for critical distance. This course will question this assumption by drawing on the tradition in German philosophy that turns on Hegel’s assertion “The state is not a work of art.” By drawing on the continuities between the political and aesthetic philosophies of Kant, Hegel, Marx, Lukács and Adorno we will develop a working account of realism that might effectively respond to the tragic cultural politics of our own day. REQUIREMENTS Class parcipaon will count for 50% of your grade, one qurter each based on your aendance, wrien responses to the quesons posed online, three short essays each responding to any chosen assigned reading and presented in class, and your contribuon to classroom discussion. Your final project will count for 30% and your midterm presentaon 20%. The final paper assignment is in two parts. The first part is to be an inial dra of 7 pages presented like a 20‑minute conference paper with feedback from the rest of the class in the paper workshop. The final paper should be 15‑20 pages and focus on any point of intersecon between aesthecs and polics. Please submit as a Google doc through Google Classroom.

  • An Interview with Thierry De Duve
    “The glimpse of hope that religion or politics can no longer promise…” An Interview with Thierry de Duve jacob lund. In a conversation held in 2004 at the University College of Cork, Ireland, you claim that Kant got it right in the sense that his aes- thetic thinking is still valid and relevant. What is it Kant was right about? In the same conversation you state the following: ”The work that remains to be done would be to generalize Kant, in the way Einstein, for example, generalized Newton, so that the validity of what Kant had to say about aesthetic judgement could be expanded to include later developments in the arts.” Was he only right about the aesthetic judgement, or are there other issues in Kant which are of interest in relation to contemporary art and aesthetic culture? thierry de duve. Before we engage in this exchange, allow me to tell you that each of your questions is so complex that the proper answer would be a chapter in a book. I hope to be able to write such a book some day but it will not be done overnight. In the meantime, I beg your pardon if I elude some of your questions or give you a very sketchy answer. I believe that Kant was right on the issue of how to define aesthetic judgements: how do they function, what is at stake in them, what do we imply when we make them? – Things like that. You see, I tend to look at Kant as if he were a scientist who made a discovery about the true nature of aesthetic judgements.

  • John Quinn, Art Advocate
    John Quinn, Art Advocate Introduction Today I’m going to talk briefly about John Quinn (fig. 1), a New York lawyer who, in his spare time and with income derived from a highly-successful law practice, became “the twentieth century’s most important patron of living literature and art.”1 Nicknamed “The Noble Buyer” for his solicitude for artists as much as for the depth of his pocketbook, Quinn would amass an unsurpassed collection of nineteenth- and twentieth-century American and European art. At its zenith, the collection con- tained more than 2,500 works of art, including works by Con- stantin Brancusi, Paul Cézanne, André Derain, Marcel Du- champ, Raymond Duchamp-Villon, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, Paul Gaugin, Juan Gris, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Georges Rouault, Henri Rousseau, Georges Seurat, and Vincent van Gogh.2 More than a collector, Quinn represented artists and art associa- tions in all types of legal matters. The most far-reaching of these en- gagements was Quinn’s successful fight for repeal of a tariff on im- 1 ALINE B.

Expressionist. Pierre DUMONT is one of the most original and most unknown painters of the Rouen school. Having come to Paris at a very young age, Pierre DUMONT lived there poorly in the La Ruche district, then returned to Rouen around 1905, he painted very colorful landscapes, in an oily and thick paste spread out on the canvas as if he was sculpting his vision. To contain his "Fauve" temperament, Pierre DUMONT entered the Rouennaise Academy of Joseph Delattre, then founded with friends artists and writers the group of XXX which became in 1909 the Norman Society of modern painting. His first paintings were marked by the influences of Van Gogh and Cézanne. From around 1910 Pierre DUMONT began to paint Rouen cathedral, from 1914 to 1919 he mainly painted the streets of Montmartre, Notre Dame cathedral, the bridges of Paris and the banks of the Seine. From 1911 to 1916, Pierre DUMONT lived at the Bateau-Lavoir where he became friends with Picasso who kept a workshop there.

CUNNINGLY SWEATED: CREATION, MEMORY, AND TIME IN FAULKNER’S MOSQUITOES by JOSEPH MORECRAFT, IV Under the Direction of Pearl McHaney, PhD ABSTRACT This study focuses on the early fiction of William Faulkner, particularly Mosquitoes. Understood in critical context, this novel suffers from retrospective bias. That is, I believe that the brilliant work that immediately (and continually) succeeded this novel provided a critical comparison that made it impossible to ascribe the appropriate value that this second novel truly deserves. Mosquitoes was not only a necessary portal and stepping stone to his later/greater fiction, but it also stands on its own as a brilliant experiment allowing Faulkner to free himself from bonds of fragmented mimesis by submerging himself in his own social, literary, theological, and psychological influences, both past and present. Faulkner created a balance between the tension he felt of a traditional Christianity that was deeply ingrained into his southern psyche and a modern influence that consisted of Nietzsche, Freud, Bergson, and others.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Au cours des trente dernières années, l’émergence d’un nouveau discours critique sur le cubisme a refaçonné notre point de vue sur le mouvement et le modernisme en général ; uniquement constitué de sources pri - maires, ce livre est la première anthologie à prendre acte de ce nouveau matériau critique. Afin de minorer l’influence des a priori qui condi - tionnent l’interprétation des éditeurs (même si ces a priori ne peuvent pas être complètement évités, on peut leur résister), ces documents ont été reproduits dans leur intégralité, à l’exception de trois cas 1. Chaque document est suivi d’un commentaire qui replace le texte (et, le cas échéant, l’auteur) dans une perspective historique et qui tient compte de l’historiographie du cubisme. Même si le corpus sur le cubisme est trop vaste pour donner à notre sélection un caractère ency - clopédique, nous nous sommes efforcés de lier ensemble quatre aspects, dans un ordre chronologique, des écrits d’artistes ; un large éventail de types de critiques 2 (manifestes d’artistes, correspondance et préfaces de catalogue) ; rapports gouvernementaux ; articles extraits de la presse populaire, de revues littéraires, de journaux satiriques et de revues spé - cialisées dans les beaux-arts ; des critiques négatives sur le mouvement, comme indicateur du grand débat public autour du cubisme avant la Première Guerre mondiale ; et des écrits abordant des questions sociales, politiques, scientifiques, philosophiques et littéraires en lien avec le cubisme. Nous avons choisi de circonscrire cet ensemble déjà conséquent de documents à des textes produits pendant les premières années du 1. Le document 36 a été abrégé pour des raisons que nous expliquons dans notre com - mentaire à cet article ; les documents 50 et 51 sont des chapitres substantiels, cohérents et non tronqués du texte d’André Salmon, La Jeune Peinture française (Paris : Société des trente, Albert Messein, 1912).
