  • Press Release: Jose Dávila, Das Muss
    Press Release: Jose Dávila, Das muss der Ort sein. Opening: September 6, 2013 at 6.00 pm, the artist will be present. Exhibition: September 7 through November 2, 2013. We inaugurate on September 6 during DC-Open Das muss der Ort sein (This Must Be the Place), our second exhibition with the Mexican artist Jose Dávila (born 1974 in Guadalajara, Mexico). It is his first exhibition in the Rhineland. We are glad to show five sculptures and three of his Cut-outs. Cut-outs are works for which Dávila cuts away the central objects from enlarged re- productions of iconic architectures or artworks in order to induce our imagination or cultural memory to complete the images. By framing these images (or what remains of them) between two sheets of glass, a new spatial image is created in particular by the voids. Because there is a shadow cast on the back of the frame. One could say: the depicted object leaves, a new object comes. In our current exhibition the removed objects are artworks from the last 60 years, that is, sculptures and installations by Giovanni Anselmo, Joseph Beuys, Marcel Broodthaers, Alexander Calder, Anthony Caro, Liam Gillick, Michael Heizer, Norbert Kricke, Richard Long, Walter de Maria, Cildo Meireless, Bruce Nauman, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Richard Serra or Tony Smith. Many of these works belong to the canon of art history. Even if we do not immediately know who was the author of the removed object, we feel – as a knowledgeable viewer – that we know the works and that we have them in our mind's eye.

  • 0 0 0 0 Acasa Program Final For
    PROGRAM ABSTRACTS FOR THE 15TH TRIENNIAL SYMPOSIUM ON AFRICAN ART Africa and Its Diasporas in the Market Place: Cultural Resources and the Global Economy The core theme of the 2011 ACASA symposium, proposed by Pamela Allara, examines the current status of Africa’s cultural resources and the influence—for good or ill—of market forces both inside and outside the continent. As nation states decline in influence and power, and corporations, private patrons and foundations increasingly determine the kinds of cultural production that will be supported, how is African art being reinterpreted and by whom? Are artists and scholars able to successfully articulate their own intellectual and cultural values in this climate? Is there anything we can do to address the situation? WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23, 2O11, MUSEUM PROGRAM All Museum Program panels are in the Lenart Auditorium, Fowler Museum at UCLA Welcoming Remarks (8:30). Jean Borgatti, Steven Nelson, and Marla C. Berns PANEL I (8:45–10:45) Contemporary Art Sans Frontières. Chairs: Barbara Thompson, Stanford University, and Gemma Rodrigues, Fowler Museum at UCLA Contemporary African art is a phenomenon that transcends and complicates traditional curatorial categories and disciplinary boundaries. These overlaps have at times excluded contemporary African art from exhibitions and collections and, at other times, transformed its research and display into a contested terrain. At a moment when many museums with so‐called ethnographic collections are expanding their chronological reach by teasing out connections between traditional and contemporary artistic production, many museums of Euro‐American contemporary art are extending their geographic reach by globalizing their curatorial vision.

  • An Analysis from the Perspective of Artistic Intent Versus Audience Experience and Interpretation
    . Volume 18, Issue 1 May 2021 The representation of audiences after 1960: An analysis from the perspective of artistic intent versus audience experience and interpretation Patrick Van Rossem, Utrecht University, The Netherlands Abstract: In The representation of the audiences after 1960, the question is asked whether we can consider the representation of the audience after 1960 in relation to artists’ ideas on the presence of an audience and its meaning giving activity. The focus is both on the representation of individual audience members or participants as well as on visitor groups. Since the 1960s the audience for art has grown and museums have seen their attendance rise. It has led amongst others to a more sophisticated mediation between artwork and audience. Since the 1960s one can also observe an increased awareness amongst artists of the fact that the experience of art and the attribution of meaning to art is differential in nature. But have artists accepted this reality? And can they ever come to terms with a critical art mediation that invites audiences to relate to art more subjectively? Analyses of both the representation of audiences and artists’ ideas on the presence of the audience shows that artists have been and are sometimes still struggling with these issues. In recent times however we can detect a growing acceptance of a more free and personal interpretation of art by the audience. Artists such as Michelangelo Pistoletto, Dan Graham, Bruce Nauman, Thomas Struth, Rineke Dijkstra, and Sophie Calle have represented audiences in ways that reveal their – positive, negative, worrying… - attitudes towards the presence of an interpreting, art consuming, desiring audience.

  • Art in the Mirror: Reflection in the Work of Rauschenberg, Richter, Graham and Smithson
    ART IN THE MIRROR: REFLECTION IN THE WORK OF RAUSCHENBERG, RICHTER, GRAHAM AND SMITHSON DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Eileen R. Doyle, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Stephen Melville, Advisor Professor Lisa Florman ______________________________ Professor Myroslava Mudrak Advisor History of Art Graduate Program Copyright by Eileen Reilly Doyle 2004 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation considers the proliferation of mirrors and reflective materials in art since the sixties through four case studies. By analyzing the mirrored and reflective work of Robert Rauschenberg, Gerhard Richter, Dan Graham and Robert Smithson within the context of the artists' larger oeuvre and also the theoretical and self-reflective writing that surrounds each artist’s work, the relationship between the wide use of industrially-produced materials and the French theory that dominated artistic discourse for the past thirty years becomes clear. Chapter 2 examines the work of Robert Rauschenberg, noting his early interest in engaging the viewer’s body in his work—a practice that became standard with the rise of Minimalism and after. Additionally, the theoretical writing the French phenomenologist Maurice Merleau-Ponty provides insight into the link between art as a mirroring practice and a physically engaged viewer. Chapter 3 considers the questions of medium and genre as they arose in the wake of Minimalism, using the mirrors and photo-based paintings of Gerhard Richter as its focus. It also addresses the particular way that Richter weaves the motifs and concerns of traditional painting into a rhetoric of the death of painting which strongly implicates the mirror, ultimately opening up Richter’s career to a psychoanalytic reading drawing its force from Jacques Lacan’s writing on the formation of the subject.

  • Document De Présentation Exitour
    Exit Tour EXITOUR EXITOUR est un projet itinérant qui a duré 2 mois entre les différentes capitales d’Afrique de l’Ouest réalisé en transport public par un groupe d’artistes contemporains camerounais. Le but de ce projet était celui de rencontrer les différentes scènes artistiques de l’Afrique de l’Ouest et d’initier un dialogue avec ses membres rencontrés. La Biennale de Dakar était supposée être la dernière étape de ce voyage après les différentes étapes des capitales : Cotonou, Lomé, Accra, Ouagadogou, Bamako, etc… Goddy Leye (artiste et manageur du projet) et deux jeunes artistes (Justine Gaga et LucFosther Diop) de Douala ont conçu ce projet qui est né du sentiment d’isolation dans lequel les artistes se sentaient dans leurs pays respectifs et du désir de rencontrer leurs homologues qui vivent dans des conditions socio-culturelles similaires et d’initier un réseau d’artistes de Afrique de l’Ouest. L’un des objectifs de Goddy Leye était celui de mettre en contact les artistes de l’Afrique de l’Est entre eux afin de conscientiser les jeunes artistes de l’importance que l’art peut avoir dans un contexte local, que ils ne ce concentrent pas trop ou seulement sur le marche en Europe. Il était également important pour eux de découvrir et de comprendre les différentes politiques culturelles de chaque pays, en essayant de donner une idée de la situation de l’art contemporain en Afrique de l’Ouest. Afin de faciliter la mise en contact au cours de son itinérance, EXITOUR a organisé des symposiums, des ateliers et des expositions dans chaque capitale et ses membres ont chaque fois pris le temps de visiter des institution et projet culturel.

The Enabling Environment for Free and Independent Media: Contribution to Transparent and Accountable Governance Abstract Throughout the world, there is a vast remapping of media laws and policies. This important moment for building more democratic media is attributable to rapid-fire geo-political changes. These include a growing zest for information, the general move towards democratization, numerous pressures from the international community, and the inexorable impact of new media technologies. Whatever the mix in any specific state, media law and policy is increasingly a subject of intense debate. Shaping an effective democratic society requires many steps. The formation of media law and media institutions is one of the most important. Too often, this process of building media that advances democracy is undertaken without a sufficient understanding of the many factors involved. This study is designed to improve such understanding, provide guidance for those who participate in the process of constructing such media, and indicate areas for further study.
