  • Discovering the Contemporary
    of formalist distance upon which modernists had relied for understanding the world. Critics increasingly pointed to a correspondence between the formal properties of 1960s art and the nature of the radically changing world that sur- rounded them. In fact formalism, the commitment to prior- itizing formal qualities of a work of art over its content, was being transformed in these years into a means of discovering content. Leo Steinberg described Rauschenberg’s work as “flat- bed painting,” one of the lasting critical metaphors invented 1 in response to the art of the immediate post-World War II Discovering the Contemporary period.5 The collisions across the surface of Rosenquist’s painting and the collection of materials on Rauschenberg’s surfaces were being viewed as models for a new form of realism, one that captured the relationships between people and things in the world outside the studio. The lesson that formal analysis could lead back into, rather than away from, content, often with very specific social significance, would be central to the creation and reception of late-twentieth- century art. 1.2 Roy Lichtenstein, Golf Ball, 1962.

  • Oral History Interview with Suzanne Lacy, 1990 Mar. 16-Sept. 27
    Oral history interview with Suzanne Lacy, 1990 Mar. 16-Sept. 27 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Suzanne Lacy on March 16, 1990. The interview took place in Berkeley, California, and was conducted by Moira Roth for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. This interview has been extensively edited for clarification by the artist, resulting in a document that departs significantly from the tape recording, but that results in a far more usable document than the original transcript. —Ed. Interview [ Tape 1, side A (30-minute tape sides)] MOIRA ROTH: March 16, 1990, Suzanne Lacy, interviewed by Moira Roth, Berkeley, California, for the Archives of American Art. Could we begin with your birth in Fresno? SUZANNE LACY: We could, except I wasn’t born in Fresno. [laughs] I was born in Wasco, California. Wasco is a farming community near Bakersfield in the San Joaquin Valley. There were about six thousand people in town. I was born in 1945 at the close of the war. My father [Larry Lacy—SL], who was in the military, came home about nine months after I was born. My brother was born two years after, and then fifteen years later I had a sister— one of those “accidental” midlife births.

This shift represents a transformation in museum culture and an increase in curated live performance. Performing the Museum: Displaying Gender and Archiving Labor, from Performance Art to Theater contributes to emerging debates in performance studies that seek to understand how performance is impacted by museums. This project, however, does not look solely at performance in museum spaces. Rather, it is one of the first to align contemporary museum performance with theatrical works that dramatize the creation and subsequent museum exhibition of visual art. The project examines work by Marina Abramović, Asco, Guillermo Goméz-Peña, Maria Hassabi, and the musical Sunday in the Park ii with George.

  • Sexual Violence in America: Theory, Literature, Activism
    Sexual Violence in America: Theory, Literature, Activism ENGL | GNSE 18700 Winter 2019 Monday/Wednesday 4:30-5:50pm Cobb 303 Michael Dango, Ph.D. [email protected] Office Hours: Mondays 2:30-4:30pm Walker 420 Course Description This course will consider how a spectrum of sexual violence has been represented, politicized, and theorized in the United States from the 1970s to the present. To get a handle on this vast topic, our archive will be wide-ranging, including legal statutes and court opinions on sexual harassment and pornography; fiction, poetry, and graphic novels that explore the limits of representing sexual trauma; activist discourses in pamphlets and editorials from INCITE to #MeToo; and ground- breaking essays by feminist and queer theorists, especially from critical women of color. How does the meaning of sex and of power shift with different kinds of representation, theory, and activism? How have people developed a language to share experiences of violation and disrupt existing power structures? And how do people begin to imagine and build a different world whether through fiction, law, or institutions? Because of the focus of this course, our readings will almost always present sexual violence itself in explicit and sometimes graphic ways. Much of the material can be upsetting. So, too, may be our class discussions, because difficult material can produce conversations whose trajectories are not knowable in advance. Careful attention to the material and to each other as we participate in the co-creation of knowledge will be our rule. However, even this cannot make a guarantee against surprises. Please read through all of the syllabus now so you know what lies ahead.

  • Contemporary Feminist Art in Australia and New Zealand
    LOOKING BACK: CONTEMPORARY FEMINIST ART IN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND Harriet Maher Master of Arts by Research December 2016 School of Culture and Communication Submission in total fulfilment of Masters by Research at the University of Melbourne ABSTRACT This thesis sets out to examine the ways in which feminism manifests itself in contemporary art, focusing in particular on Australia and New Zealand. Interviews were conducted with practicing contemporary artists Kelly Doley, FANTASING (Bek Coogan, Claire Harris, Sarah-Jane Parton, Gemma Syme), Deborah Kelly, Jill Orr and Hannah Raisin. During these interviews, a number of key themes emerged which form the integral structure of the thesis. A combination of information drawn from interviews, close reading of art works, and key theoretical texts is used to position contemporary feminist art in relation to its recent history. I will argue that the continuation of feminist practices and devices in contemporary practice points to a circular pattern of repetition in feminist art, which resists a linear teleology of art historical progress. The relationship between feminism and contemporary art lies in the way that current practices revisit crucial issues which continue to cycle through the lived experience of femininity, such as the relationship to the body, to labour and capital, to the environment, and to structures of power. By acknowledging that these issues are not tied to a specific historical period, I argue that feminist art does not constitute a short moment of prolific production in the last few decades of the twentieth century, but is a sustained movement which continually adapts and shifts in order to remain abreast of contemporary issues.

PETROPOULOS deposes and certifies, as follows: 1. I am over the age of twenty-one and reside at 526 West 12th Street, Claremont, California, 91711. I have been retained by the attorneys for the heirs of George Grosz to provide this Declaration in relation to factual issues arising from a motion by the defendant, The Museum of Modern Art (“The MoMA”), to dismiss the First Amended Complaint (“FAC”). 2. Specifically, I have been requested to review two questions: (1) whether the allegations that three paintings by George Grosz, Portrait of the Poet Max-Herrmann- Neisse (with Cognac Glass), Self-Portrait with Model and Republican Automatons (together “the Paintings”), were lost or stolen are grounded in historical fact; and (2) whether the report of Nicholas deB. Katzenbach (“the Katzenbach Report”) submitted in support of the motion to dismiss is consistent with the historical record and provenance documentation available to art historians and scholars. As set forth below, a review of available documentation and scholarly resources shows: (1) that the allegations of the FAC appear to be supported by documentary evidence and otherwise well-grounded in historical fact and (2) that the statements contained in the Katzenbach Report are inconsistent with the historical record.
