The Self-Organization of Contemporary Art in China, 2001–2012
Bao Dong Rethinking Practices within the Art System: The Self-Organization of Contemporary Art in China, 2001–2012 The Origin of the Term “Self-Organization” in China The term “self-organization” was first used in the context of contemporary Chinese art in 2005 at the Second Guangzhou Triennial curated by Hou Hanru, Hans Ulrich Obrist, and Guo Xiaoyan. Self-organization was one of the special projects of the triennial, and there were two panel discussions on the topic. The exhibition theme “Beyond” focused on the topic of alternative modernity in China and non-Western countries, and the term self-organization was defined by the following statements: “A number of independent art organizations, institutions, and communities have taken an active role in artistic creation and practice” and “their projects are often diverse, flexible” and “self-induced in nature.”1 Altogether, twenty-four self- organized groups2 were included in this project, and for the curators, the concept of “self-organization” was used to differentiate independent and autonomous organizations from those attached to government systems or political parties. This feature is also the fundamental difference between the various artist-run autonomous organizations and the organizations within the conventional art system as constituted by Chinese Artists Association, along with the various academies of painting, art institutes, museums, and so on. In other words, self-organization is considered a force operating outside of the conventional art system, just as the inception, growth, and flourishing of contemporary Chinese art is believed to have been achieved outside of official systems. In terms of any independence from the conventional art system, self- organization is not a new phenomenon in the contemporary Chinese art scene.

Locating Vietnamese Contemporary Art Scene
Locating Vietnamese contemporary art scene An ethnographic Hong-Ngoc TRIEU attempt from afar TRI14437741 Abstract. Initially, as a student majored in Design Cultures, I was intrigued in Vietnam precisely because I barely knew anything about the art history of my country. Having exposed to the studies of Design Cultures and Histories, I set out to fnd how Vietnamese art history is chronicled by putting it in a complex relationship with the sociocultural and political background. Identifying and locating art from a place like Vietnam that rarely fgures in art history cannot be done overnight as I am thousand miles away from the happenings. This essay, thus, is my humble attempt to look at Vietnam’s contemporary art scene through an afar-ethnographic approach mainly by fexible design methods such as interview, survey, case study, discourse analysis and participant observation. Given how little experience in the real-world research and history learning that I possess, my fndings are based on personal analysis, percep-on and hence, do not necessarily reﬂect other’s views on the same topic. Entrance to contemporary art scene: tracing the Vietnamese art history In order to investigate the Vietnamese reform in 1986, where restriction on contemporary art scene, I am essentially artistic creativity were steadily relaxed asking the question of how it is and hence allowed artist greater freedom constructed and perceived within the art of expression and facilitating exposure to community and the stream of Vietnamese contemporary trends in both Asian and history of art. While world contemporary Western art. However, unlike the world art had started and risen to prominence contemporary art with its rich outline of since the 1950s - 1960s, its Vietnamese artistic movements in term of quantity, counterpart only came into existence in the diversity and quality, Vietnamese latter decades of the twentieth century; contemporary art scene has barely seen therefore, it is relatively new to the public.

Jeffu Warmouth: NO MORE FUNNY STUFF Is the First Solo Exhibition in the Fitchburg Art Museum’S New Series of Shows Devoted to Contemporary New England Artists
Fitchburg Art Museum in Partnership : with Fitchburg State University Presents: February 9 - June 1, 2014 Table of Contents 1 Foreword 3 Acknowledgments 5 A Word From The Artist 7 Introduction 9 JeFFu’s FFantastic FFunhouse Exploring Galleries 13 Experimental Performance 23 Playing With Your Food 51 Falling Into A Digital Paradise 19 Rethinking The Motion Picture 91 Exhibition Checklist 95 Biography 103 Bibliography Foreword: Jeffu Warmouth: NO MORE FUNNY STUFF is the first solo exhibition in the Fitchburg Art Museum’s new series of shows devoted to contemporary New England artists. It’s fitting – and important – to begin with Jeffu, because he is Fitchburg’s best-known contemporary artist. His work has been shown across the United States, and abroad, and he has been a vital participant in the regional visual arts community for two decades. This exhibition also reflects the deepening relationship between AMF and Fitchburg State University as we work together to create enhanced artistic and educational experiences for Fitchburg State students and FAM’s audience. A show as complex as Jeffu Warmouth: NO MORE FUNNY STUFF would have been impossible for FAM to achieve alone. Fitchburg State contributed the hard work and creativity of its faculty and students in myriad ways, provided technology and IT support, and invested funds in the exhibition. In return, their students enjoyed a real professional challenge while developing career-boosting portfolio materials. This pilot collaboration worked so well, that it will be continued for future shows at FAM. I would like to thank Fitchburg State President Robert Antonucci for his generosity of spirit and resources, and Professor Rob Carr for his vision and passion.

Jason Wing Battleground
Jason Wing Battleground 12 June – 11 July 2020 Artereal Gallery 747 Darling Street, Rozelle NSW Australia 2039 +61 (2) 9818 7473 [email protected] www.artereal.com.au This June, Artereal Gallery is Artereal Gallery is pleased to present Jason Wing's first solo exhibition with the gallery, showcasing important new works from his ongoing Captain James Crook series alongside a recent survey of both new and existing works from his Battleground series of shields. Described as “tough, necessarily blunt, yet often witty and lyrical, Jason Wing challenges dominant accounts of Australian history”1. Jason Wing is a Sydney based artist who strongly identifies with his Chinese and Aboriginal Biripi heritage. With works held in the collections of many of Australia’s major cultural institutions, his art protests the loss of the rich traditions and cultural identities of his layered dual heritage and challenges prevailing perspectives of Australian history and settlement. 1 https://visual.artshub.com.au/news-article/reviews/visual-arts/helen-wyatt/review-jason-wing-and-nicole-welch-glasshouse- regional-gallery-256707 BLACK LIVES MATTER! The plea and call to action is Captain James Cook when he sailed into Kamay (but named resonating worldwide. by Cook in his charts as Botany Bay), the home of the Eora and Gweagal people. It is at the heart of Jason Wing’s art. He challenges, protests and mourns Australia’s fraught colonising and indigenous It is a flawed colonial victor perspective perpetuated by histories and the continuing contemporary impact of lawmakers, many historians and school and university contested Country and the loss of the rich indigenous curricula that denies the sovereignty of Aboriginal and traditions and cultural identities of Aboriginal and Torres Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Contemporary Art’: Propositions of Critical Artistic Practice in Seni Rupa Kontemporer in Indonesia
CONTEXTUALIZING ‘CONTEMPORARY ART’: PROPOSITIONS OF CRITICAL ARTISTIC PRACTICE IN SENI RUPA KONTEMPORER IN INDONESIA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Amanda Katherine Rath January 2011 © 2011 Amanda Katherine Rath CONTEXTUALIZING ‘CONTEMPORARY ART’: PROPOSITIONS OF CRITICAL ARTISTIC PRACTICE IN SENI RUPA KONTEMPORER IN INDONESIA, 1973-1994 Amanda Katherine Rath, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 This dissertation contends with the development of seni rupa kontemporer (contemporary art) between 1973 and 1993, with certain case studies extending to the late 1990s. I offer a history and genealogy of concepts of critical artistic practice, examining to what purpose strategies of a contemporary art have been put and from what conditions they emerged. I examine how these have been interpreted to possess criticality in Indonesia. Taking the controversial curatorial essay published for the 9th Jakarta Biennale of Art (1993) as a catalyst rather than as a point of reference, I rethink the possibility and value of a construct of an avant-garde and postmodern in seni rupa kontemporer.I propose a kind of avant-garde without modernism’s tradition of transgressive poetics. The mode of marginality I have in mind is a critical position possible only on this side of the political sea change and depoliticization of the cultural field in Indonesia after 1965. This entails tracing shifting notions of art’s and artistic autonomy, which were largely dependent upon the relation art had with politics and the spheres in which artistic practice was seen to reside.

9 of HUMAN BONDAGE, a Relationship With
OF HUMAN BONDAGE, a relationship with Nudes. January – June 2021 Prologue: The great British playwright and novelist William Somerset Maugham (b. 1874 – d. 1965) wrote the semi-autobiographical novel “Of Human Bondage” in 1915. Considered one of the best English-language novels of the 20th century, it was thrice made into a film in 1934, 1946 and 1964. The novel tells the story of an orphan, Philip who wanted to be an artist but was told he was not gifted enough and eventually ended up as a doctor. He was madly in love with a waitress Mildred who rejected him repeatedly for other men. He eventually settled for a nice homely girl Sally, after he stopped searching for happiness, and concluded that "the simplest pattern - that in which a man was born, worked, married, had children, and died - was likewise the most perfect". Maugham was not only a man of letters, he was also a connoisseur of the arts. He collected Camille Pissarro, Alfred Sisley, Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. In Bondage, there were (according to writer Stanley Archer, a Maugham fan), more than thirty artists named in the book with ten famous paintings mentioned by name! In the 1946 movie starring Bette Davies and Leslie Howard, I could see many paintings in Philip's flat, including a big reclining nude which was painted by Philip himself. Maugham first came to Singapore in 1921 and he would for some reason, keep coming back repeatedly over four decades, each time staying at the iconic Raffles Hotel. In curating this exhibition of nudes from my collection, I thought revisiting Maugham and borrowing his masterpiece Of Human Bondage as the title for this show would not be coincidental.
