Ce Que La Polémique Fait Aux Œuvres. Une Étude En Trois Temps De Controverses Dans L'art Contemporain Université de Montréal Ce que la polémique fait aux œuvres. Une étude en trois temps de controverses dans l’art contemporain par Julia Roberge Van Der Donckt Département d’histoire de l’art et d’études cinématographiques, Faculté des arts et des sciences Thèse présentée à la faculté des études supérieures en vue de l’obtention du grade de Ph. D. en histoire de l’art août 2017 © Julia Roberge Van Der Donckt, 2017 RÉSUMÉ Souvent reléguées aux marges de l’histoire de l’art, les controverses n’en ont pas moins un effet éminemment transformateur : elles font quelque chose aux œuvres. Consacrée à l’étude de polémiques récentes touchant des œuvres d’art contemporain, cette thèse met en lumière ce qui naît de ces conflits, à savoir de nouveaux objets, de nouveaux acteurs et de nouveaux modes opératoires. L’analyse s’articule autour de trois cas : la censure du film A Fire in My Belly (1986- 1987) de David Wojnarowicz à la National Portrait Gallery de Washington, D.C. en 2010, le blanchiment d’une murale du street artist Blu réalisée au Museum of Contemporary Art de Los Angeles la même année et, enfin, la destruction de Dialogue avec l’histoire (1987) en 2015, œuvre d’art public conçue par Jean Pierre Raynaud pour la Place de Paris à Québec. Ces controverses signalent la mise en place d’une dynamique inédite quant au rôle exercé par la circulation d’images dans le développement des polémiques : ces reproductions, disséminées de manière soutenue dans le web, et plus généralement à travers différentes déclinaisons de l’espace public, infléchissent les trajectoires des œuvres. Ceci leur procure non seulement une visibilité accrue, mais leurs modes d’existence s’en trouvent par conséquent modifiés, les œuvres vivant pour ainsi dire par l’entremise d’images fixes ou animées qui prolifèrent en ligne. Prenant appui sur la conception pragmatiste des publics (Dewey), de même que sur la sociologie de l’acteur-réseau et les théories de la médiation, nous étudions par ailleurs la formation de collectifs nés conjointement à cette dissémination d’images « virales ». Des acteurs impliqués dans les controverses, qu’il s’agisse d’artistes ou d’activistes, entreprennent notamment de faire réapparaître les œuvres censurées ou disparues sous diverses formes, incluant des répliques, des œuvres dérivées ou encore des mèmes Internet. Nous démontrons que ce phénomène de réappropriation, inexistant lors de polémiques artistiques antérieures aux années 2010, est lié aux dynamiques de partage apparues avec le « web 2.0 ». Mots clés : culture visuelle; controverses artistiques; médiations; trajectoires d’œuvres; publics; visibilité; viralité ii ABSTRACT While they are often relegated to the margins of art history, controversies nevertheless have an eminently transformative effect : they do something to artworks. Devoted to the study of recent debates surrounding contemporary works, this thesis brings into light what arises from these conflicts, namely new objects, new actors, and new modi operandi. The analysis is structured around three case studies: the censorship of the film A Fire in My Belly (1986-1987) by David Wojnarowicz at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C. in 2010, the whitewash of a mural by street artist Blu at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles that took place the same year, and the destruction of Dialogue avec l’histoire (1987) in 2015, a work of public art created by Jean Pierre Raynaud for the Place de Paris in Québec City. These controversies reveal that there is a new dynamic taking place regarding the role of circulating images in the unfolding of such debates: these reproductions, extensively disseminated in the web, and more generally in public spaces and the public sphere, shape the artworks’ trajectories. Not only does this confers them a higher visibility, but their very modes of existence are modified in this process, works get to live, in a manner of speaking, through fixed or animated images that proliferate online. Drawing upon a pragmatist approach to publics (Dewey), actor-network theory, and sociology of mediation, we also study the forming of collectives born jointly with this dissemination of “viral” images. Actors involved in the controversies, either artists or activists, seek to make the censored or destroyed works reappear in various forms, including replicas, derivative works or even Internet memes. We demonstrate that this phenomenon of appropriation, inexistent during controversies prior to the 2010s, is linked to sharing dynamics that appeared with the « web 2.0 ».

  • Graffiti As Art As Language: the Logic of a Modern Language
    Philosophy Study, May 2019, Vol. 9, No. 5, 223-232 doi: 10.17265/2159-5313/2019.05.001 D D AV I D PUBLISHING Graffiti as Art as Language: The Logic of a Modern Language Kylie I. Casino NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California, U.S. The notion of communication is in essence that of information transmission in its simplest form—the semiotic encoding and decoding of messages that occur in every type of language, be that written, verbal, non-verbal, or animal. Taking form in an Aristotelian syllogism, this paper argues that graffiti constitutes its own art form that must be equally represented, examined, appreciated, and documented. By exploring how graffiti is art, how art is language, and therefore how graffiti is language, this paper seeks to expand its audience’s understanding of how artworks are underpinned by a similar semiotic structure to that of the written or verbal. Through theory and case studies of contemporary graffiti artists and their works, the notion of graffiti as a language that can be read and contextualized comes to life in a way that is both grounded in history and stunningly creative. Keywords: graffiti, semiotics, language, art Introduction How do we communicate?: a question whose answer has been sought after throughout time, discipline, and media. Communication as content and process of knowledge transmission rules our everyday lives in both simple and significant ways. The notion of communication in its simplest form essentially defines itself as information transmission—the semiotic encoding and decoding of messages that occur in every type of language, be that written, verbal, non-verbal, or animal.

All Minor Compositions publications are placed for free, in their entirety, on the web. This is because the free and autonomous sharing of knowledges and experiences is important, especially at a time when the restructuring and increased centralization of book distribution makes it difficult (and expensive) to distribute radical texts effectively. The free posting of these texts does not mean that the necessary energy and labor to produce them is no longer there. One can think of buying physical copies not as the purchase of commodities, but as a form of support or solidarity for an approach to knowledge production and engaged research (particularly when purchasing directly from the publisher). The open access nature of this publication means that you can: • read and store this document free of charge • distribute it for personal use free of charge • print sections of the work for personal use • read or perform parts of the work in a context where no financial transactions take place However, it is against the purposes of Minor Compositions open access approach to: • gain financially from the work • sell the work or seek monies in relation to the distribution of the work • use the work in any commercial activity of any kind • profit a third party indirectly via use or distribution of the work • distribute in or through a commercial body (with the exception of academic usage within educational institutions) The intent of Minor Compositions as a project is that any surpluses generated from the use of collectively produced literature are intended to return to further the development and production of further publications and writing: that which comes from the commons will be used to keep cultivating those commons.

  • City of West Hollywood Clippings
    Shepard Fairey's Peace Elephant , 2011, in progress at the public library in West Hollywood "ART IN THE STREETS" EXPANDS IN HOLLYWOOD July 27, 2011 Three artists from the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art ’s “Art in the Streets” exhibition have teamed up with the city of West Hollywood to paint a series of murals on the walls of the new public library’s parking lot on Melrose and San Vincente Boulevard. LA MOCA director Jeffrey Deitch toured the library while it was under construction and thought its walls would make “an ideal extension” of the exhibition, according to the Los Angeles Times . On one section, local artist Shepard Fairey painted his largest work to date, Peace Elephant , a 70 x 106 ft. black, red and yellow mural of a dove and an elephant holding a flower in its trunk. He and artist David Wiseman are also planning works for inside the library. Fellow Los CITY OF WEST HOLLYWOOD CLIPPINGS Angeles-based street artist Retna has painted scrawling blue text that supposedly consists of quotes from author Salman Rushdie , though the artwork is written in code. Elsewhere, Kenny Scharf painted a giant cluster of his signature smiley heads. Despite police and public outcry that the exhibition is inspiring a surge in graffiti in Los Angeles, the city approved the project (MoCA selected the artists) and is paying for a protective anti- graffiti coating on the graffiti art. The museum and the artists are supplying the rest of the funds. Fairey took a wry approach to any possible controversy, writing on his website,: “Calm down taxpayers.

  • Murals Library
    The WesT hollyWood library Murals The three public murals displayed on the exterior walls of the new West Hollywood Library are the fruits of an innovative collaboration between Vanity Fair and Cadillac in partnership with The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA), and the City of West Hollywood. Known as “The West Hollywood Library Murals,” the project features work from three of the biggest names working in the visual arts today: shepard Fairey, ReTna (a.k.a. Marquis lewis), and Kenny scharf. The West Hollywood Library Murals is an extension of MoCa’s wildly popular Art in the Streets exhibition which was on view at The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA from april 17 to august 8, 2011. art in the streets traced the evolution of graffiti and street art from the 1970s to the global movement it has become today. Renowned photographer David LaChapelle captured the artists and their murals for a custom portfolio, presented by Cadillac, for the november 2011 issue of Vanity Fair. For Cadillac, trusting in and persistently following its creative instincts was the notion that led the brand to champion this extraordinary project. Indeed, there is an authentic convergence point between the values of the Cadillac brand and what drives these artists to create their work—recognizing risks as opportunities is a hallmark of Cadillac, just as the street artists, through their creations, break down and rebuild new paradigms every day. To further this connection, Cadillac provided each artist with points of inspiration based on the tenets of its ideology: bold creativity that surpasses expectation, and daring ingenuity that breaks all boundaries.

  • Art in the Streets, MOCA, L.A
    Art in the Streets Patti Astor at her NYC Fun Gallery, hosting Keith Haring’s 1983 exhibition "Art in the Streets" at L.A.'s Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) was a controversial exhibition with works by more than 100 "artists," depicting this underground art genre. At the April 2011 exhibition press preview, MOCA's director Jeffrey Deitch (at that time) with co-curators Roger Gastman and Aaron Rose, compared the works to cubism, constructivism, Dadaism and surrealism, in its potential impact on the art world. The show was an enormous amalgam of graffiti, street art, murals, assemblage pieces, installations of decrepit graffiti filled streets, hip re-created bedrooms and galleries from the 1970's and 80's, displays of aerosol spray cans, numerous photographs of graffiti sprayed buildings, subway cars, bridges, photos of people who did the "artwork" and much more. The exhibition was filled with small to large graffiti pieces and massive installations - fascinating works that brought the viewer to places she/he might otherwise avoid. The art was displayed museum and salon style, in cogent, logical ways and with adequate signage, giving viewers a comprehensive understanding of graffiti and street art. Running throughout was a timeline of the evolution of the genre. There was also a display about a graffiti forerunner, railroad writings, going back to late 19th century. The exhibition demonstrated that several graffiti artists, Shepard Fairey, Bansky, Barry McGee, Mr. Cartoon, are producing works with form, color, harmony and aesthetic beauty. The show was also infused with dynamic youthful energy, with large swirling swaths of color and occasional in-your-face comments on the state of the world.

Evans* As street art continues to fuel a generation of counterculture and gains popularity in pop culture, laws enacted by local governments to curb this art form raise interesting constitutional issues surrounding the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause. More and more cities across Amer- ica are classifying street art and graffiti as public nuisances. Such mu- nicipalities impose their agenda on private property owners with street art ordinances. These laws allow the government to come onto private property to remove the street art; some laws go even further by requiring the property owner to remove the street art at his own cost.
