  • Redacted Thesis
    INSTALLING AND UNSETTLING IMAGINARIES; Rehearsing the social within the self FREYA PITT 0000-0002-5061-1606 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Fine Arts (Visual Art) (by Research) DECEMBER 2018 VCA Art Faculty of Fine Arts and Music The University of Melbourne Abstract The practice-led research outlined here explores ways of bringing attention to the mutual contingency of the self and the social through self-portraiture, culminating in a large multichannel projection and sound installation titled How to Deal with Difference (2018). In this thesis I discuss some of the formative influences on this work from various threads of social theory and contemporary installation practice. What we recognise as ourselves is deeply embedded in the social institutions we exist within. Drawing on Cornelius Castoriadis and others, I will use the term 'imaginary' as an articulation of the social constructions that both form and are formed by the individual. I also refer to the artworks created through this research as 'imaginaries', and through their installation have attempted to unsettle the solidity of various perceptions of the self, and the social. My studio practice is situated through analysis of related works by prominent contemporary artists, noting some of the similarities and differences to the approach I have taken. Works by William Kentridge, Camille Henrot, Pipliotti Rist and Lisa Reihana are discussed in some detail, my purpose here being both to acknowledge their influence and to articulate something of what is distinctive in the work I have created. Partly inspired by Judith Butler's account of performative identity and self-poesis, I filmed myself performing many varying and contradictory 'selves', in an exploration of my own relationality and self-formation.

  • 1 Inside Soviet Film Satire: Laughter with a Lash, Ed. Andrew Horton (Cambridge: 1993), 20-35 Kevin Moss Middlebury College
    1 Inside Soviet Film Satire: Laughter with a Lash, ed. Andrew Horton (Cambridge: 1993), 20-35 Kevin Moss Middlebury College A RUSSIAN MUNCHAUSEN Aesopian Translation Tot samyj Mjunxgauzen [The Very Same Munchausen] was one of the most popular Soviet made-for-TV films of the late seventies. The tall tales of the 18th century German baron, which form the basis for the screenplay by Grigorij Gorin, are known and loved the world over. The prototype for the legend, Hieronymus Karl Friederich, Freiherr von Münchhausen, fought in the Russian service against the Turks before retiring to his estate, where he hunted and entertained. The legendary Munchausen was born through the publication in 1785 of Baron Munchausen's Narrative of his Marvellous Travels and Campaigns in Russia, which made the real baron something of a tourist attraction in his own lifetime. The original text, written in English by the German refugee Rudolf Erich Raspe, was soon translated into German by Gottfried August Bürger, and within two years it had gone through six English editions and been translated into French as well. New editions meant new additions to Raspe's original, and translators also felt free to embellish and edit as they saw fit. We have then a work in Russian about a German character originally documented in English. For the English reader, additional interest is provided by the exotic settings of some of the adventures: Russia, Turkey, the Indies. But these apparently did not interest Gorin: he did not set his play about the baron in Russia, strangely enough, but at the baron's home in Germany, and the film was shot in the GDR.

  • Adventures of Baron Munchausen, The
    Adventures of Baron Munchausen, The Raspe, R. E. Adventures of Baron Munchausen, The Table Of Content About Phoenix−Edition Copyright 1 Adventures of Baron Munchausen, The The surprising adventures of Baron Munchausen By Rudolph Erich Raspe Published in 1895. 2 Adventures of Baron Munchausen, The INTRODUCTION It is a curious fact that of that class of literature to which Munchausen belongs, that namely of Voyages Imaginaires, the three great types should have all been created in England. Utopia, Robinson Crusoe, and Gulliver, illustrating respectively the philosophical, the edifying, and the satirical type of fictitious travel, were all written in England, and at the end of the eighteenth century a fourth type, the fantastically mendacious, was evolved in this country. Of this type Munchausen was the modern original, and remains the classical example. The adaptability of such a species of composition to local and topical uses might well be considered prejudicial to its chances of obtaining a permanent place in literature. Yet Munchausen has undoubtedly achieved such a place. The Baron's notoriety is universal, his character proverbial, and his name as familiar as that of Mr. Lemuel Gulliver, or Robinson Crusoe, mariner, of York. Condemned by the learned, like some other masterpieces, as worthless, Munchausen's travels have obtained such a world−wide fame, that the story of their origin possesses a general and historic interest apart from whatever of obscurity or of curiosity it may have to recommend it. The work first appeared in London in the course of the year 1785. No copy of the first edition appears to be accessible; it seems, however, to have been issued some time in the autumn, and in the Critical Review for December 1785 there is the following notice: «Baron Munchausen's Narrative of his Marvellous Travels and Campaigns in Russia.

  • Imaginary Voyages
    IMAGINARY VOYAGES IMAGINARY VOYAGES The idea of travel sets our minds off in many directions: East, West, North, South...as well as Up and Down. Writers have speculated for centuries about interstellar travel. Others have imagined visiting myth- ical continents or journeying to the center of the Earth. The works on view in this exhibition were crafted by a variety of storytellers with a range of destinations. Some were pure fantasy, such as the works of Jules Verne and Mark Twain; others attempted to communicate infor- mation about newly discovered lands on Earth while adding fictional components about talking animals and exotic beasts. Other tales use invented extra-terrestrial societies as allegories to comment on politics and human behavior. All of these travel narratives offer humor and sociological commentary, so let’s join Babar, Baron Munchausen, Hildebrand Bowman, and Professor Otto Lidenbrock as they explore outer and inner space. This imaginary trip finds Mr. Baboulifiche and his servant Papavoine traveling to Earth’s moon on a hot air balloon. Their visit is complicated by encounters with flying spiders and giant bats. Not much is known about the author, who described writing the tale for young readers during a series of winter evenings. A. De Ville D’Avray Voyage dans la lune avant 1900. Paris: Librairie Furne, Jouvet & Cie., [1892] This comic tale of a donkey who gets transported the Mars works as a satire on politics in France and Switzerland in the latter part of the 19th century. The style, printed lithographically, owes to the pioneering format created by Rudolph Töpffer, the father of the modern comic book.
