Margit Koller: Expansion in Sculpture – Site-Specific Installation, Environment and the Non-Autonomous Artwork
Margit Koller: Expansion in Sculpture – Site-specific Installation, Environment and the Non-autonomous Artwork Report about my research program in New York, supported by the Peter and Irene Ludwig Foundation, 2018 September Expansion in Sculpture – Site-specific Installation, Environment and the Non- autonomous Artwork Virginia Dwan and the Dwan Gallery. Dia Art Foundation. MoMA PS1. Dan Flavin Institute and The Donald Judd Foundation. Do Ho Suh: Rubbing/Loving Project. House as Art - Arthouse 1. Introduction I spent one month in New York in September 2018, thanks to the researcher scholarship of Peter and Irene Ludwig Foundation. In my workplan my focus was tended onto monumental sculpture, site-specific installation and environmental art, as well as the public sculpture, with the connection between the financial possibilities and artistic freedom. In addition, I always examine the spatial art in the relation of the artwork with its surrounding space and the perceptual skills and possibilities of the viewer. During my stay in New York I was visiting museums, collections, galleries and public parks inside the city and around and in Washington DC, which support site-specific and monumental spatial art in temporary exhibitions or permanent collections (open for the public). I visited loads of colossal and inspiring places, but because of the limit of the report I only write about my most important experiences which are directly connect to both of my research and creative process. (My experiences about the public sculpture could fill another 10-page long report1). As I’m writing my report three weeks after my arriving, the language may mirror my relation to my fresh discoveries, experiences and spontaneous recognitions.

This is Irwin's second solo exhibition at QCA. The opening reception will take place on Saturday, February 22nd from 6 – 8PM, it is open to the public and the artist will be in attendance. “There are in aesthetic experience potentially as many “arts” as there are encounters with its incidences in the world. In confusing the art/object of “art” with the subject of art, we objectively tried to hold to the idea of one transcending art. While there is no one transcending “Art,” there is one infinite subject: The subject of art is aesthetic perception.” – Robert Irwin, from Notes Toward a Model, 1977 Robert Irwin’s philosophical essay from 1977 is still as relevant today.

Dan Flavin Was Born in 1933 in New York City, Where He Later Studied Art History at the New School for Social Research and Columbia University
DAN FLAVIN Dan Flavin was born in 1933 in New York City, where he later studied art history at the New School for Social Research and Columbia University. His first solo show was at the Judson Gallery, New York, in 1961. Flavin made his first work with electric light that same year, and he began using commercial fluorescent tubes in 1963. Fluorescent light was commercially available and its defined systems of standard sized tubes and colors defied the very tenets of Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art, from which the artist sought to break free. In opposition to the gestural and hand-crafted, these impersonal prefabricated industrial objects offered, what Donald Judd described as “…a means new to art.”1 Seizing the anonymity of the fluorescent tube, Flavin employed it as a simple and direct means to implement a whole new artistic language of his own. He worked within this self-imposed reductivist framework for the rest of his career, endlessly experimenting with serial and systematic compositions to wed formal relationships of luminous light, color, and sculptural space. Vito Schnabel Gallery presented Dan Flavin, to Lucie Rie and Hans Coper, master potters in St. Moritz from December 19, 2017 — February 4, 2018. The exhibition featured nine light pieces from the series dedicated to Rie, nine works from his series dedicated to Coper, and a selection of ceramics by Rie and Coper from Flavin’s personal collection. Major solo exhibitions of Flavin’s work have been presented at the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa; Staatliche Kunsthalle, Baden- Baden; St. Louis Art Museum, Missouri; Morgan Library and Museum, New York; and Dan Flavin: A Retrospective, an international touring exhibition that included the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.; Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Texas; Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; Hayward Gallery, London; the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; and Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich.

For Immediate Release August 14, 2019 Major Survey of Barry Le Va's Early Work Opening at Dia:Beacon in November 2019 Beacon
For Immediate Release August 14, 2019 Major Survey of Barry Le Va’s Early Work Opening at Dia:Beacon in November 2019 Barry Le Va installing Four (Cleaved Floor) (1969/2016) at MoMA PS1, New York, in 2016. © Barry Le Va. Photo: C. J. Nolan © David Nolan Gallery, New York City Beacon, NY – August 14, 2019 – This fall, Dia Art Foundation will present a survey of early work by Barry Le Va at Dia:Beacon in Beacon, New York. The exhibition features several of the artist’s most important floor-based, site-responsive installations from the 1960s, using felt, aluminum bars, and ball bearings, as well as early works using glass, meat cleavers, and powder. Though seemingly random in their presentation, these radical works are rigorously planned and arranged, and offer a counterpoint to the stark geometry of his peers’ Minimal sculptures. The yearlong exhibition opens November 9, 2019. Since the 1960s Le Va has been regarded as one of the leading practitioners of Postminimal and Process art. Alongside peers such as Robert Morris and Richard Serra, he renounced the contemporary mainstays of concrete form and geometry, embracing instead the concepts of dispersion, chance, and impermanence. Originally educated as an architect, Le Va ultimately abandoned his training to focus on his artistic practice. However, the question of how space is organized and produced continued to inform his work, even as he turned his attention to the remnants of the sculptural process. Arranging non- precious materials such as felt and flour according to principles of order and disorder, Le Va’s scattered installations compel the viewer to consider this evidence of prior activity as they move through the gallery.

For Immediate Release September 27, 2019 Dia to Present an Exhibition of Rarely Seen Works on Paper by Marian Zazeela Opening October 5, 2019 Marian Zazeela, 22 – 28 VIII 75, 1975. © Marian Zazeela. Photo: Bill Jacobson Studio, New York, courtesy Dia Art Foundation, New York New York – September 27, 2019 – This fall, Dia Art Foundation presents an exhibition at Dia:Beacon, Beacon, New York, of works on paper by renowned multidisciplinary artist Marian Zazeela. Since 1962 Zazeela has worked with her long-time collaborator, La Monte Young, on large-scale installations in sound and light. While Zazeela’s sculptures and light design have become well known, her works on paper have remained decidedly less so. This presentation features approximately thirty works on paper dating from 1962 to 1990, which showcase the range of materials and motifs that stem from the artist’s deep interest in calligraphy and ornamental forms, and link her divergent practices. The exhibition, which marks only the second solo presentation to date of Zazeela’s works on paper, opens on October 5, 2019, and will be on view through May 2021. The works on view at Dia:Beacon advance what Zazeela terms “borderline art”—work that challenges the hierarchical distinction between decorative and fine art by using ornamentation in the fine art tradition and using borders as content in themselves. On visits to Morocco at the beginning of her artistic career in 1959, Zazeela was inspired by the Arabic lettering on marketplace signs. Building upon this early interest in calligraphy, she began to borrow forms from cursive writing and vary them to create new patterns.

The Metropolitan Transit Authority has a long and rich history of commissioning some of the best of the city’s artists to install work in subway stations. While it’s never a good idea to stand still in peak hour commuter rush to look at some art (you may not survive the experience) it is worth keeping your eyes open as you join a connecting train line or enter and exit the subway. Some of my favourites include the Nancy Spero theatrical mosaic on the 1 line (Lincoln Center station), Roy Lichtenstein’s huge enamel wall painting (Times Square); Elizabeth Murray’s ew York City’s mosaic (Lexington Avenue/59th St); Leo Villareal’s reputation for being the centre of the art world still dynamic light work (Bleecker St/Lafayette St); and Sol stands firm, with an abundance of fabulous jaw- LeWitt’s joyous colourful wall installation (59th Street/ dropping and heart-stopping museums.

Press Release of the Exhibition
Press Release DIA ART FOUNDATION TO PRESENT A NEW WORK BY THOMAS HIRSCHHORN, TIMELINE: WORK IN PUBLIC SPACE, AT THE SITE OF DIA’S FUTURE PROJECT SPACE IN CHELSEA September 15 through November 3, 2012 Aug 07, 2012 New York, NY—The Dia Art Foundation is pleased to announce that in fall 2012 it will present a new, large-scale collage by Thomas Hirschhorn at 541 West 22nd Street, the site of the future Dia:Chelsea project space. On view from September 15 through November 3, 2012, Timeline: Work in Public Space will comprise a 30-foot horizontal line of images, written statements, and text excerpts chronicling Hirschhorn’s interventions at urban and rural sites from 1989 to 2011. By showing the trajectory of the artist’s past work, Timeline will both add to the appreciation of Hirschhorn’s existing practice and help prepare audiences for a future work that he will create in public space. In summer 2013, Dia will present Gramsci Monument, a temporary “Presence and Production” project dedicated to the writer and political theorist Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937), which Hirschhorn will construct outdoors in the Bronx or at another location in New York City. The projects featured in Timeline all reflect Hirschhorn’s inquiry into questions pertaining to sculpture in public spaces, such as site, monumentality, duration, impermanence, and “le précaire” (the precarious). They incorporate cardboard, paper, photos, photocopies, and tape covered by transparent paper—materials that Hirschhorn has integrated into his artistic vocabulary, granting them both symbolic meaning and properties of “le précaire.” Reminiscent of earlier works by Hirschhorn that dealt with archeology in the form of schemas and maps, Timelinereturns to the idea of the “interconnectivity” implied in the artist’s tracing of links and relationships across time, as well as repeated strategies and motifs.

The democratization of the museum becomes the priority to make art accessible to everyone. In the quest to find the perfect strategy, museums commit themselves to a constant transformation that seeks to create a unique “business model.” Along this process, institutions provide two-folded experiences to the public; first, the exhibition of art as a spectacular experience, and second, the staging of the museum as an entertaining entity.

Dia Chelsea, Reimagined, Reopens to the Public This Week After Renovation by Architecture Research Office
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 14, 2021 DIA CHELSEA, REIMAGINED, REOPENS TO THE PUBLIC THIS WEEK AFTER RENOVATION BY ARCHITECTURE RESEARCH OFFICE Part of a comprehensive, multi-year plan to strengthen and revitalize Dia’s constellation of sites in Chelsea, Beacon, and SoHo, as well as renovation of two landmark artist installations New York, NY – Dia Art Foundation and Architecture Research Office (ARO) are celebrating the completion and the public reopening of Dia Chelsea. Established in 1974, Dia Art Foundation supports the vision of artists through organizing and commissioning permanent and long-term exhibitions and installations at its constellation of sites in the United States and Germany. Dia’s collection spotlights in particular the work of artists from 1960s and 1970s, ranging from site-specific Land art such as Nancy Holt’s Sun Tunnels and Walter de Maria’s The Lightning Field, to significant works by Sam Gilliam, Richard Serra, Donald Judd, Agnes Martin, Andy Warhol and many other acclaimed artists of the past half-century. Dia originated the concept of repurposing old factories and warehouses to create generous daylit spaces for art outside the context of the ‘white cube’ museum or gallery. In the 1980’s, Dia relocated its offices and exhibition space to the west Chelsea area of New York City, a formerly industrial neighborhood that is now home to more than 200 galleries. In 2003, Dia opened Dia Beacon in upstate New York, in a nearly 300,000 square foot former Nabisco box printing factory boasting more than 34,000-square-feet of skylights. The renovation and expansion of Dia Art Foundation’s three adjacent buildings in Chelsea establishes a greater street-level public presence for Dia.
