INTRODUCTION THIS is a pamphlet intended to accompany the debate that surrounds "The Festival Of Plagiarism", but it may also be read and used separately from any specific event. It should not be viewed as a cat­ alogue for the festival, as it contains opinions that bear no relation to those of a number of people participating in the event. Presented here are a number of divergent views on the subjects of plagiarism, art and culture. One of the problems inherent in left opposition to dominant culture is that there is no agreement on the use of specific terms. Thus while some of the 'essays' contained here are antagonistic towards the concept of art — defined in terms of the culture of the ruling elite — others use the term in a less specific sense and are consequently less critical of it. Since the term 'art' is popularly associated with cults of 'genius' it would seem expedient to stick to the term 'culture' — in a non-elitist sense — when describing our own endeavours. Although culture as a category appears to be a 'universal' experience, none of its individual expressions meet such a criteria. This is the basis of our principle objection to art — it claims to be 'universal' when it is very clearly class based.

  • Amelia Jones the Body As Archive/The Archive As Body: Live Art in Los Angeles 1970-75, a Case Study
    Amelia Jones The Body as Archive/The Archive as Body: Live Art in Los Angeles 1970-75, A Case Study Countering the usual opposition between the "live" (believed to be authentic) and the "document" or "archive" (usually posed as secondary and thus as inferior), this paper will propose that the body can be understood itself as an archive and the archive as a "body." I use a specific research project attempting to historicize otherwise lost performance art practices from early 1970s Los Angeles to muddy this opposition, pointing to the continuum among the various levels through which performance art can be experienced: through first-hand viewing or participation, through later interviews with artists and participants, through documents, reenactments, and other detritus that find their way into archives. Focussing on the case study of live performance art in Los Angeles from 1970-1975, this essay will explore the limits of how we can excavate and write histories of specific periods or practices of live art. Drawing on my personal experience of the LA creative community starting a decade later (that is, as a researcher arriving late on the scene who can always only look back to a history of which she was not a part), archival and interview research, and existing written histories and documentary traces of LA performance in this period, I hope both to sketch the possibility of writing this partial history and the limits of what we can know about events that took place over time and in the past. Is it enough to ask an artist to explain past works and contexts? Is it enough to look at photographs, albums, sketches, flyers, and ticket stubs in local archives? Where does the "truth" of these past performance practices lie? Ultimately the paper will seek to begin to understand our persistent disavowal of the obvious impossibility of knowing either present or past performances (our insistence on discussing live art "as if" we can fix it in place and time, even though we can never know even what we see before us in this instant).

  • The Defining and Shaping of the Contemporary Art Curator
    THE DEFINING AND SHAPING OF THE CONTEMPORARY ART CURATOR THE DEFINING AND SHAPING OF THE CONTEMPORARY ART CURATOR Susan Ostling DipArt Lond BA Syd MA (Visual Arts) QUT Queensland College of Art, Griffith University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy February 2013 2 Abstract Curators have come to figure quite prominently in the cultural landscape of late, such that the concept of a curator is now applied in a wide variety of contexts from art to shopping. It is said curators are now far more linked to the internet and social networks, than to the interiors of museums; and most accounts see the contemporary art curator as caught in the flux of global cultural economies. Why should this be? It is in this volatile terrain I have situated my research on the contemporary art curator. I ask how has the role of the curator been shaped, defined and constrained by competing discourses? Were there other influences, I ask beyond the global market place that may have contributed to the defining and shaping of the contemporary curator? I undertake this study in two ways. Firstly, I conduct an historical overview to explore whether there were precedents of curatorial practice that might lead to a greater understanding of the contemporary curator. Here, following Foucault, I consider the transformations in dominant discourses that have effected the assembling and interpretation of collections of significant objects. Secondly, using interviews conducted with three ‘independent’ curators—Seth Siegelaub, Juliana Engberg and Charles Esche—I undertake discourse analyses, identifying a number of fields of discourse, which I argue have impacted and shaped their curatorial practices.

  • ALLAN Mccollum Brief Career Summary Allan Mccollum
    ALLAN McCOLLUM Brief career summary Allan McCollum was born in Los Angeles, California in 1944 and now lives and works in New York City. He has spent over thirty years exploring how objects achieve public and personal meaning in a world constituted in mass production, focusing most recently on collaborations with small community historical society museums in different parts of the world. His first solo exhibition was in 1970 in Southern California, where he was represented throughout the early 70s in Los Angeles by the Nicholas Wilder Gallery, until it’s closing in the late 70s, and subsequently by the Claire S. Copley Gallery, also in Los Angeles. After appearing in group exhibitions at the Pasadena Art Museum and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, his first New York showing was in an exhibition at the Sidney Janis Gallery, in 1972. He was included in the Whitney Museum of American Art Biennial Exhibition in 1975, and moved to New York later that same year. In 1978 He became known for his series Surrogate Paintings, which were shown in solo exhibitions in New York at Julian Pretto & Co., Artistspace, and 112 Workshop (subsequently known as White Columns), in 1979. In 1980, he was given his first solo exhibition in Europe, at the Yvon Lambert Gallery, in Paris, France, and in that same year began exhibiting his work at the Marian Goodman Gallery in New York, where he introduced his series Plaster Surrogates in a large solo exhibition in 1983. McCollum began showing his work with the Lisson Gallery in London, England, in 1985, where he has had a number of solo exhibitions since.

In September 2007, NEH’s We the People program celebrated its fifth anniversary. This year We the People continued to strengthen the teaching, study, and understanding of American history and culture through grants supporting hundreds of projects, including traveling library exhibitions on great Americans such as Benjamin Franklin; documentary films; summer workshops for school- teachers; and our annual We the People Bookshelf program for libraries. In 2007 NEH also launched the pilot phase of an exciting new We the People initiative called “Picturing America,” which seeks to put some of our nation’s artistic masterpieces and iconic images in our schools, where they will help students trace our national story and learn about America’s principles. We the People is also ensuring that the “first draft” of our history is widely available. In March, we joined our partners at the Library of Congress to announce the debut of the “Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers” website, featuring more than 226,000 pages of public domain newspapers from six states and the District of Columbia published between 1900 and 1910. Ultimately, the “Chronicling America” website will offer all Americans a free, searchable database of some thirty million pages of historic U.S. newspapers. As NEH worked this year to promote and preserve America’s cultural heritage, we also expanded our efforts to collaborate and exchange new ideas in the humanities with our peers in other nations.
