  • Artist: Period/Style: Patron: Material/Technique: Form
    TITLE:Vietnam Veterans Memorial LOCATION: Washington, D.C., U.S. DATE: . 1982 C.E. ARTIST: Maya Lin PERIOD/STYLE: Minimalism PATRON: The Commision of Fine Arts MATERIAL/TECHNIQUE: Granite FORM: Highly reflective black granite with incised names of 58,000 names ofVietnam Veterans who sacrificed their lives during the conflict. The name is an abstraction that means more to the family and friends than a pictorial representation. The two walls start very short and get progressively taller until they meet at an oblique angle at the monument’s center. One wall points towards the Washington Monument; the other points to the Lincoln Memorial. FUNCTION: It functions as a memorial to the soldiers that died during the Vietnam War. It is an ideal place for people to come and spend quiet time reflecting on the names and perhaps leaving mementos to the deceased. CONTENT: The walls are made of a dark igneous rock called gabbro, a type of granite, which is highly reflective when polished.The surface of the monument is etched with the 58,195 names of the Americans who died or remained missing in action in the Vietnam War. The names are listed in the order in which they were reported killed or missing in action. This makes the names harder to find, and re- quires a listing and numeric system of organization for visitors. CONTEXT: There were 1400 anonymous entries for this commission. There was a real backlash once her identity was known because of latent racism in the post Vietnam era. She defended her design in front of the United States Congress, who eventually reached a compro- mise: A group of more “traditional” sculptures, called “The Three Soldiers,” was erected near the monument.

  • Ualbany Art Museum Marks Its 50Th Year Venue Helped Energize Local Art Scene
    UAlbany art museum marks its 50th year Venue helped energize local art scene By Amy Biancolli on October 22, 2017 Jason Middlebrook's "Live with Less," his 2009 installation at the UAM (image courtesy University at Albany / University Art Museum) Fifty years ago, an airy new venue for contemporary art opened up in Albany, one among the many modernist structures sprawled in the new uptown SUNY campus designed by the architect Edward Durell Stone. The museum was spacious and bright with windows, light spilling into upstairs and downstairs galleries ringing an open, soaring atrium that reached 35 feet to the roof. Its inaugural exhibit, which opened Oct. 5, 1967, featured paintings and sculptures from the collection of Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, the governor of New York and the state's most famous patron of abstract- expressionist artwork. "It really changed the contemporary landscape for our region — really, forever," said Tammis K. Groft, executive director of the Albany Institute of History and Art, the venerable museum best known for its cultural artifacts and collection of 19th-century Hudson River School paintings. SUNY's new cultural bastion of poured concrete cracked open a local arts scene more focused on the past than the present and future: the Institute was the old guard, slanted toward history. In the years since UAM opened, several regional havens for contemporary art have sprung into being. Among them: Albany Center Gallery in 1977. The Rice Gallery at the Albany Institute of History & Art, 1982. Mass MoCA, 1999. The Tang, 2000. The Opalka Gallery at Sage, 2002. "There are many more organizations focused on contemporary art" around the region these days, said Janet Riker, former director.

    229. A Book From the Sky Xu Bing. 1987-1991 C.E. Mixed-media installation Video at Khan Academy a book produced by Chinese artist Xu Bing in the style of fine editions from the Song and Ming dynasties, but filled entirely with meaningless glyphs designed to resemble traditional Chinese characters.[1] The book, which consists of four volumes totaling 604 pages, was printed in a single print run of 126 copies between 1987 and 1991 Title changed from original western influence name to one that was popular: thedecided to adopt the name that was already in popular use, Tiānshū. In Chinese, the term tiān shū (“divine writing”) originally referred to certain kinds of religious texts, but is now used to mean “gibberish”; it has thus been suggested that Nonsense Writing would be a more appropriate translation of the title The book is composed using a set of 4,000 characters, as this is roughly the number of characters in common usage in modern written Mandarin. These characters were designed on the basis of the Kangxi radicals, so that “in terms of density of strokes and frequency of occurrence, they…appear, on the page, to be real characters“.[2]:55 In addition to these, page and fascicle numbers were indicated using tally marks based on the Chinese character 正 o This was one of the last remaining traditional printing factories in China, which after the Cultural Revolution mainly produced state-sponsored reprints of classical texts using pre-Revolution woodblocks o The characters were carved into individual pieces of movable type made from pear wood Reactions: o Critical reactions to Book from the Sky were initially dismissive.

    The AALITRA Review A JOURNAL OF LITERARY TRANSLATION No. 10, May 2015 Website: http://aalitra.org.au Translation Plus: On Literary Translation and Creative Writing Nicholas Jose To cite this Article: Jose, Nicholas. “Translation Plus: On Literary Translation and Creative Writing.” The AALITRA Review: A Journal of Literary Translation 10 (Melbourne: Monash University, May 2015): 5-17. Translation Plus: On Literary Translation and Creative Writing NICHOLAS JOSE Adelaide University Abstract How do the disciplines of translation studies and creative writing relate in an institutional setting or in current practice more broadly? What role does translation play in the creative writing workshop or classroom, especially for students writing in English as a second language? What benefits are there in the interchange? What can translation add? The article considers these questions in a wide-ranging discussion of writing processes that recognize translation as both a constraint and a highly elastic and enabling concept. Reference is made to writers such as Juan Pablo Villalobos, Ben Lerner and Merlinda Bobis whose work is thematically concerned with issues of translation, and the author’s own novel, The Red Thread, which adapts a Chinese text, as well as pedagogical experiments in creative writing involving literary texts from languages other than English. This contributes to an argument that translation is an integral part of contemporary creative practice in a world characterized by mobility, multiplicity and transculturalism. Did she say Ivanhoe? All around those parts is where the man lived who was right meat for her. A long time ago it must be, they took a fancy to one another.
