Stampa in bianco, bleu e rosa. Questa esposizione è la prima in cui sono adottate le tecniche pubblicitarie dei supermercati. L’idea dell’impiego delle tecniche pubblicitarie dei supermercati può essere collegata a una precedente iniziativa della Galleria La Salita di Roma del dicembre del 1963: Turcato, Sanfilippo, Franchina, Angeli ed altri artisti, avevano esposto mobili costruiti e firmati da loro stessi: sedie, tavoli, armadi, candelabri ed altri oggetti messi in vendita al pubblico intervenuto all’iniziativa con un certo divertimento. Dopo la mostra americana, La Salita riproporrà il concetto nella fa- mosa mostra dei «12 giorni a La Salita» (19 dicembre 1964 - 5 gennaio 1965), questa volta utilizzando prodotti di serie con interventi degli artisti, vendendoli allo stesso prezzo del grande magazzino.

  • From Its Inception in the Early 1960S, Pop Art Was a Boys' Club. Huge
    BY RACHEL LEBOWITZ Dec 2, 2016 1:36 PM From its inception in the early 1960s, Pop Art was a boys’ club. Huge names like Andy Warhol and Tom Wesselmann perpetuated the myth of the (male) artist-as-genius. The movement emerged amid the post-World War II explosions of capitalist consumerism and mass media, as artists explored new modes of mechanical production, often by taking commonplace consumer goods and pop-cultural icons as their subject matter. Associated with an unemotional, distanced attitude toward artmaking, Pop Art’s codified characteristics are, in turn, stereotypically male. For female artists participating in the movement, cultivating a persona as a so-called serious artist seemed like the only way to succeed. An alternative strategy was to (often cheekily) critique Pop Art and its workings from the inside out. In many cases, though, these strategies were interpreted as playing by the rules rather than challenging them, and, more often than not, these routes failed to reward female artists with a lasting place in the mainstream. Now, however, with the nuances of their practices better understood, female artists from around the globe are gaining more recognition for their contributions and challenges to Pop Art. Associated with the Pop movement to varying extents, the following 11 women artists (by no means an exhaustive list) all engaged with its motivations and defining characteristics, some by expanding the genre through feminist inflection, others by working along its margins. Kiki Kogelnik Untitled (Woman's Lib), ca. 1971 Sunkist, 1981 Simone Subal RoGallery At first involved with Viennese gestural abstract painting, Austrian artist Kogelnik moved to the U.S.

  • Like Other Mid-Century Pop Artists, Kiki Kogelnik Became a Brand. And
    Kiki Kogelnik, Self Portrait, 1964. © Kiki Kogelnik Foundation. All rights reserved. Courtesy of the Kiki Kogelnik Foundation. Like other mid-century Pop artists, Kiki Kogelnik became a brand. And while the Austrian-born artist should primarily be remembered for her innovative “Hangings” series and her bold feminist motifs, history hasn’t been kind to her. In the United States, Kogelnik’s legacy unfairly rests more on her fashionable image and vibrant personality than on her work itself. Born in Bleiburg, Austria, in 1935, Kogelnik attended Vienna’s Academy of Fine Arts and began her career painting quiet abstractions. She moved to New York in 1961 at the suggestion of her friend, painter Sam Francis, and her work took a colorful turn. Influenced by the city’s commercialism and the burgeoning Pop movement, Kogelnik made science fiction-inflected paintings featuring floating bodies, polka dots, robot parts, and the cosmos. She worked out of Francis’s studio for a few years, mingling with the other artists who came through and easily integrated into the city’s cultural milieu. Her friends included major figures, from Andy Warhol to Larry Rivers. According to a pamphlet she preserved in a giant black scrapbook of personal ephemera (which she titled her “Ego Book”), composer Morton Feldman once said, “Kiki is the love goddess of pop art…her paintings continue the legacy of a ‘Marilyn Monroe.’” If Kogelnik relished the praise, it didn’t help her reputation as a serious artist. “She was kind of an outlier, even though she knew everyone,” Pilar Zevallos, the director of the Kiki Kogelnik Foundation, tells Artsy.

    10/30/2018 Kiki Kogelnik - Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions A Archives W A of Women Artists R Kiki Kogelnik Research E & Exhibitions 1935 — BLEIBURG, AUSTRIA | 1997 — VIENNA, AUSTRIA Austrian, American based visual artist. In the 1960s, within a male-dominated arts scene, Austrian artist Kiki Kogelnik never ceased to question the body, aligning feminism with technology. Born in Bleiburg, Kiki Kogelnik studied art in Vienna between 1954 and 1958. She created abstract artworks alongside artists Maria Lassnig and Arnulf Rainer but felt somewhat out of phase with Abstract Expressionism. Notably following her acquaintance with Sam Francis, who advised her to move to the United States, she left in 1961 for Santa Monica and later, New York. There, she met some of the emblematic figures of American Pop Art: such as Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, and Claes Oldenburg. Kogelnik tended towards figuration and created paintings, drawings, and installations in a pop aesthetic: using bright, shimmering colours, new materials, and industrial techniques. America represented an opposing force to what Kogelnik had heretofore experienced in Austria, which was still economically depressed due to World War II.” . New York was the emblem of mass consumerism, which gave rise to new media of distribution, the fertile terrain of the pop art movement. Fascinated by this disembodied consumer society, she questioned the social, political, and intimate body, capturing the contours of human bodies. Using her own body or that of male or female friends, she traced their outlines onto various materials (plastic, packaging paper, cardboard) that she cut out and reused in her artworks.

  • SALTS Samuel Leuenberger & Elise Lammer Hauptstrasse 12 CH–4127
    Press Release SOULLESS SKIN Sarah Margnetti starring Kiki Kogelnik 9 September - 21 October 2017 Opening Reception: Friday 8 September 2017, 6pm Receiving her BA from ECAL in Lausanne and her Masters from HEAD in SALTS Geneva, Sarah Margnetti (*1983 in Monthey, lives and works in Brussels and Samuel Leuenberger & Lausanne) went on to get a technical training at The Van der Kelen-Logelain Elise Lammer Institute in Brussels, one of the first schools dedicated to the study of decorative Hauptstrasse 12 painting. Founded in 1882, it’s also one of the few places where art education CH–4127 Birsfelden is not about free expression, but about learning one strict, ancient discipline. [email protected] Mastering the technique of trompe l’oeil, Margnetti has developed a virtuous +41 61 311 73 75 painting style that combines optical illusions and abstract motives. For SALTS, the artist filled the two exhibition spaces with intricate, painterly landscapes covering all the walls. In the context of this exhibition, Margnetti, together with the curators, selected some drawings, paintings and sculptures of the late Austrian Pop artist Kiki Kogelnik (1935-1997, lived and worked in New York and Vienna), with whom she shares a similar formal and conceptual vocabulary, despite the half century that separates them. Sarah Margnetti worked on a series of wall paintings, putting together an elusive narrative that explores the fragmentation of the human body and the sensorial and cultural potential of certain materials. Initially invited to realise the exhibition alone, it was later decided to grow the project into a conceptual and visual conversation between her and Kiki Kogelnik.

  • Laura Castellis October 27, 2015 Review of Kiki Kogelnik: Fly Me to the Moon at Modern Art Oxford
    Laura Castellis October 27, 2015 Review of Kiki Kogelnik: Fly Me to the Moon at Modern Art Oxford Kiki Kogelnik, Untitled (small hanging), 1968. Courtesy of Kiki Kogelnik Foundation Vienna, New York. Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenberg, Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns. The giants of post-war American art are being reviewed once again; their replacement of high art with kitsch, brushstroke with Ben-Day dot and abstract expressionism with advertising is eerily prophetic of the current state of affairs. During its first lifetime, pop was maligned for glorifying consumerism; it has now been revised to acknowledge the biting cynicism that bristled beneath the smiles of Hollywood goddesses and the shiny veneer of muscle cars. Regardless, the legacy of omission has continued unabated, as the largely unknown name Kiki Kogelnik (1935-1997) will attest. A contemporary of the aforementioned postmodern practitioners, the Austrian- born artist’s retrospective at Modern Art Oxford showed before several of her works go on display in The World Goes Pop exhibition opening at Tate Modern later this month. After having studied at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts; the very Academy which had sought to contain a disaffected Egon Schiele and exclude a resentful Adolf Hitler; Kogelnik relocated to New York in 1961 and became immersed in post-war American culture, particularly enraptured by new industry and space exploration. However, the artist very much contested her association with pop, although this wish seems to remain widely ignored. Whilst the colours of Kogelnik’s works are decidedly pop; acid greens and neon yellows; the content is other.

  • Video Transcript Kiki Kogelnik
    Video Transcript: Stephen Hepworth, Director of Kiki Kogelnik Foundation, talks about the life and work of Kiki Kogelnik, and her exhibition 'Riot of Objects' at MOSTYN. Kiki Kogelnik was born on 22nd January 1935 in Southern Austria and grew up in the town of Bleiburg. Her father was an accountant, her mother was a schoolteacher. She was the middle of three children and was named originally Sigrid, Kiki was a nickname her elder brother Herwig gave her, and she later chose to adopt it, becoming Kiki Kogelnik. She initially studied at the Vienna Academy of the Applied Arts under the sculptor Hans Knesel, where she made the two early plaster sculptures included in this exhibition: Untitled Head and Untitled Figure in 1954. These iconic objects are reflective of a common post-war European sensibility, both figurative and reductively angular in form they evoke a melancholic pity and sadness.
