    Tate Papers - Beuys is Dead: Long Live Beuys! Characterising Volition,... http://www.tate.org.uk/research/tateresearch/tatepapers/05autumn/barker.htm ISSN 1753-9854 TATE’S ONLINE RESEARCH JOURNAL Beuys is Dead: Long Live Beuys! Characterising Volition, Longevity, and Decision-Making in the Work of Joseph Beuys Rachel Barker and Alison Bracker Fig.1 Joseph Beuys Felt Suit 1970 (photographed on acquisition, 1981) Felt Edition 27, no. 45 Tate Archive. Purchased by Tate 1981, de-accessioned 1995 © DACS 2005 View in Tate Collection For over four decades, artists have used organic or fugitive materials in order to instigate and interrogate processes of stasis, action, permanence, and mortality. Joseph Beuys (1921-1986), along with his contemporary, Dieter Roth (1930 –1998), pioneered this practice, probing concepts of energy, warmth, and transformation through the intelligent use of organic materials such as fat. But unlike Roth, who consistently advocated the unconstrained decomposition of his work, Beuys’ position on decay, change, and damage varied from statement to statement, and from piece to piece. As one conservator familiar with the artist’s work noted, in order to understand Beuys’ personal philosophy regarding conservation, ‘it would be necessary to read all his interviews and statements ... and even after this, one still might be restricted to speculation as to what he ... meant in this special case.’1 Unsurprisingly, museums housing Beuys sculptures and installations generally lack consistent counsel from the artist pertaining to preventive conservation, intervention, and restoration of his work. Together with codified conservation principles, artists’ statements and documentation (ideally, recorded at the time of acquisition, and at vital points in the work’s lifespan) greatly inform conservation decision- making.

  • Torched Penny Repair Paint Application Guideline-Admila
    xB RS 4.0 is out and looks to be a hit with our customers. We have noticed some chatter on the web regarding the special Torched Penny paint and its repairability. I wanted to provide you with some first hand information and dispel some of the rumors. • Yes, the paint does cost more than normal paint Why = It is due to the special color changing characteristics (high pigmentation) of the paint • No, you do not need to re-paint the whole car if you get into an accident or get a scratch. Why = Due to the color changing paint it is actually easier to blend and match than traditional paints (its harder to see the painting mistakes). Spot painting instructions are attached. • No, the color is not difficult to match Why = Due to the color changing paint it is actually easier to blend and match than traditional paints (it’s harder to see the painting mistakes). • Yes, there are paint companies offering this paint for repairs. I am pleased to announce that all of the paint companies listed below have successfully achieved color matches for the Scion xB 3R2 "Torched Penny" color. • PPG - 10/6/06 - completed with successful color match • BASF - 9/4/06 - completed with successful color match • Sherwin Williams - 10/17/06 - completed with successful color match • DuPont - 11/10/06 - completed with successful color match • Akzo Nobel - 11/09/06 - completed with successful color match See attached paint repair application guide that was produced by Nippon Paint, the manufacturer of Maziora.

  • 1 RON CARTER NEA Jazz Master (1998) Interviewee: Ron Carter
    Funding for the Smithsonian Jazz Oral History Program NEA Jazz Master interview was provided by the National Endowment for the Arts. RON CARTER NEA Jazz Master (1998) Interviewee: Ron Carter (May 4, 1936 - ) Interviewer: Devra Hall Levy with recording engineer Ken Kimery Date: May 16, 2011 Repository: Archives Center, National Museum of American History Description: Transcript, 47 pp. Levy: It's May 16th, we're sitting in the home of Ron Carter, Jazz Master, to get the oral history for the Smithsonian Jazz Oral History Project. Ron, this is your story so please feel free to take it in any direction that you want as I go. Carter: I'll follow the questions. Levy: Okay. Well, we might as well start at the beginning. I know that you were born on May 4th of 1937 near Detroit. Tell us … you came from a large family … Carter: I'm from a family of six girls and two boys. I'm in the middle, I guess. Several of them have passed away in the intervening years. I have a sister who plays piano and flute. I have a sister who played viola, one who played violin, who passed away. I'm the only one who decided to try to make a living at this foolishness. Family of ten. Levy: That's a big family. Was it a struggle in those times financially? Was it comfortable? Carter: I think when you're that age – ten, twelve – you don't know those issues. I can assure you that my father, who had to work around the clock in those jobs given the racial tenor of the times, managed always to make sure we had plenty to eat, healthy foods.
