CS Museo Marino Marini MAURIZIO NANNUCCI En MAURIZIO NANNUCCI Top Hundred Curated by Andreas Hapkemeyer 27 February - 23 April 2016 Press release The Marino Marini Museum in Florence will launch its 2016 exhibition calendar on Saturday 27 February with Top Hundred, a project by Maurizio Nannucci. These one hundred works – artists' multiples, limited editions, books and records, videos, magazines, documents, and ephemera by leading international artists from the 1960s to the present – were selected from the Zona Archives collection, which Nannucci founded in 1967. In this developing project, each new presentation returns to the idea of an open archive, and the "Top Hundred" become a statement on display and content. The exhibition's Florence run follows that held at Museion, Bolzano, where the first "Top Hundred" were presented from September 2015 through January 2016. The exhibition offers an itinerary across art forms in which the biographical aspect of Nannucci's work coincides with the historic aspect of certain art practices. Top Hundred is a reflection on the concept of reproducibility in artwork, which, once it is freed from the aura of uniqueness and unrepeatability, is opened up to a wider, more democratic circulation in which economic value becomes relative. The exhibition thus documents various experiences and trends, ranging from poesia concreta to Fluxus, conceptual art, and experimental multimedia works up to the recent art movements of the 2000s. Top Hundred thus becomes a journey through the art of the last fifty years, revealing the wealth and innovative strength of the various languages that have characterized it. To present the one hundred works – artists' multiples, books and records, posters, audio works, videos and ephemera – Nannucci's presence at the Marino Marini Museum has been integrated with its permanent collection. For the occasion, a catalogue will be published with texts by Andreas Hapkemeyer, Maurizio Nannucci, Gabriele Detterer, Letizia Ragaglia, Alberto Salvadori, and contributions from Caterina Toschi and Alessandra Acocella. The exhibition forms part of a research project on contemporary archives undertaken by the Marino Marini Museum and begun in 2014, with the exhibition devoted to Centro Di and the private collection of Alessandra Marchi; it was followed by the archive of contemporary artists' books selected by Gregorio Magnani in 2015.

Florence, 1939) has been a key figure in Italian art for decades, and is one of the best known worldwide. Since the mid-1960s, he has been exploring the complex relationships between art, language and image, creating fresh conceptual offerings characterized by his use of different media: neon, photography, video, sound, limited editions, and artist's books. In 1967, his first neon writings brought his work a wider scope of meaning and a new sense of architectural space. His works have been displayed in over 300 exhibitions in museums and international expositions from the Venice Biennale to documenta in Kassel. His most recent solo exhibition has just closed at MAXXI in Rome. In parallel, Nannucci is also actively engaged in publishing activities, beginning in the 1960s with the Exempla editions and continuing with Zona Archives and Recorthings; he has published artists' books and records, multiples and documents by other artists, many of whom are fellow travellers of his and who contributed along with him to affirming the concept of reproducibility in artwork. Nannucci is among the founders of numerous non-profits, such as Zona (1974-1985), Zonaradio (1982-present), and Base progetti per l'arte (1998-present), and has curated a variety of exhibitions and presentations of Zona Archives materials, including Small Press Scene, Zona, Florence (1975); Artists’ Books / Cento Libri d’Artista Cento, Palazzo Strozzi, Florence (1978); Cent livres d’artistes italiens, Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris (1981); Foné, la voce e la traccia, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris (1984); A.B.

Photo: Lisa Rastl artist, Hauser & Wirth, and Luhring New York, NY…The New Museum is pleased to present the first New York survey of the work of Swiss artist Pipilotti Rist (b.1962). Over the past thirty years, Rist has achieved international renown as a pioneer of video art and multimedia installations. Her mesmerizing works envelop viewers in sensual, vibrantly colored kaleidoscopic projections that fuse the natural world with the technological sublime. Referring to her art as a “glorification of the wonder of evolution,” Rist maintains a deep sense of curiosity that pervades her explorations of physical and psychological experiences. Her works bring viewers into unexpected, all-consuming encounters with the textures, forms, and functions of the living universe around us. Occupying the three main floors of the New Museum, “Pipilotti Rist: Pixel Forest” is the most comprehensive presentation of Rist’s work in New York to date. It includes work spanning the artist’s entire career, from her early single-channel videos of the 1980s, which explore the representation of the female body in popular culture, to her recent expansive video installations, which transform architectural spaces into massive dreamlike environments enhanced by hypnotic musical scores.

What changes, what comes to form a whole, what was overlooked and where does it go from here? Audiovisual Messages – the 1973 edition of the trigon Biennal – placed a major emphasis on media art, putting local artists in direct relation to international developments. This exhibition marked the beginning of a dynamic that made Graz appear a special place for media art. With influential works by artists such as Nam June Paik, Keith Sonnier, Gottfried Bechtold, Trisha Brown and Bruce Naumann, what emerges is a web of topics that have captivated media art from the beginning, including space-time penetration, media discussion and -reflection or the painterly/musical qualities of new media – topics showing a clearly traceable development in relation to more recent work. Thus the exhibition media art collecting deals with collecting activities at the Neue Galerie Graz in the area of media art, the essence of which becomes evident in the spectrum of exhibitions held over the past 40 years. Building on the 2009 exhibition Rewind/Fast Forward at the Neue Galerie Graz and its first-ever survey of the institution’s video art collection, the current exhibition media.art.collecting.

  • James Lee Byars: Sphere Is a Sphere Is a Sphere Is a Sphere 19 March – 11 June 2016
    James Lee Byars: Sphere Is a Sphere Is a Sphere Is a Sphere 19 March – 11 June 2016 Peder Lund is pleased to announce an exhibition with the American artist James Lee Byars (1932-1997). Originally a student of art and philosophy at Wayne State University, Byars stated that his main influences were "Stein, Einstein, and Wittgenstein." After complet- ing his studies in the United States, Byars spent nearly a decade living in Japan where he, influenced by Zen Buddhism, Noh theatre and Shinto rituals, executed his first performances. In 1958 Byars returned to the United States and forged a relationsip with Dorothy Miller, the first curator of painting and sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. After meeting Byars, Miller allowed him to hold a temporary exhibition in the stairwell of the MoMA which was the artist's New York debut. Since then, the performative events, sculptures, drawings, installations, and wearable art of James Lee Byars has been widely exhibited internationally. Up until his death at the age of 65 Byars had remained in constant pursuit of the concept of perfection and truth. Byars shaped his persona and career into a continuous performance, when his life and art merged with each other. Ken Johnson of the New York Times described him as a "dandified hierophant." At the age of 37 Byars wrote a book titled ½ an autobiography while he sat in a gallery space noting down thoughts and questions as visitors passed through. The book was published afterwards with the additonal title The Big Sample of Byars.

  • Fergus Mccaffrey Presents an Exhibition Surveying the Artistic Networks and Avant- Garde Work by American and Japanese Artists Between 1952 – 1985
    Fergus McCaffrey presents an exhibition surveying the artistic networks and avant- garde work by American and Japanese artists between 1952 – 1985 Japan Is America Fergus McCaffrey New York October 30 – December 14, 2019 Fergus McCaffrey is pleased to present Japan Is America, an exhibition exploring the complex artistic networks that informed avant-garde art in Japan and America between 1952 and 1985. Starting with the well-documented emergence of “American-Style Painting” that ran parallel to the Americanization of Japan in the 1950s, Japan Is America endeavors to illustrate the path and conditions from Japanese surrender in 1945 to that country's putative cultural take-over of the United States some forty years later. The exhibition traces the international exchanges that supported and propelled Japanese art forward in unimaginable ways, and shifted the course of American art and culture. The exhibition will be accompanied by an ambitious film program including rarely-seen films by John Cage, Shigeko Kubota, and Fujiko Nakaya, among others. In the aftermath of World War II, both countries sought recognition beyond the cultural periphery, carving out a space for the redefinition of aesthetics in the post-war era. After 1945, Japan focused on rebuilding, countering the devastation of their defeat in World War II. The nation was occupied by American forces between 1945 and 1952. Sentiments of democracy and peace resonated throughout Japan, but art from the region reflected upon and responded to the death and suffering experienced. Japan Is America begins with Tatsuo Ikeda’s kinukosuri portrait of an American soldier’s wife from 1952.

    Kate Gilmore VIDEO CONTAINER: TOUCH CINEMA KNIGHT EXHIBITION SERIES Ursula Mayer, Gonda, 2012, Film still On May 15, 2014, Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami (MOCA) presents “Video Container: Touch Cinema,” a presentation of single-channel video work by contemporary artists who investigate the material and metaphysical presence of the body as it relates to issues of identity and sexuality. The second edition of a new MOCA video series exploring topical issues in contemporary art making, “Video Container” reflects the museum’s ongoing commitment to presenting and contextualizing experimental and critical practices, and to providing a platform for interdisciplinary media and discursive content. The program series is made possible by an endowment to the museum by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. “Video Container: Touch Cinema” features videos by leading contemporary artists including: Vito Acconci, Bas Jan Ader, Sadie Benning, Shezad Dawood, Harry Dodge, Kate Gilmore, Maryam Jafri, Mike Kelley & Paul McCarthy, Ursula Mayer, Alix Pearlstein, Pipilotti Rist, Carolee Schneemann, Frances Stark, VALIE EXPORT, and Hannah Wilke, among others. The exhibition borrows its title from an iconic recording of a 1968 guerrilla performance by VALIE EXPORT, in which the artist attached a miniature curtained “movie theater” to her bare chest and invited passersby on the street to reach in. Conflating the space of the theater with her own body, EXPORT’s performance emphasized the powerful and contested nature of viewership and interaction. Ranging from performance documentation to abstract shorts and long-form narratives, the artists in “Video Container: Touch Cinema” expand upon themes related to VALIE EXPORT’s seminal piece.
