Hence, in this anarchic foam of tastes and distastes, a kind of listless blur, gradually appears the figure of a bodily enigma, requiring complicity or irritation. Here begins the intimidation of the body, which obliges others to endure me liberally, to remain silent and polite confronted by pleasures or rejections which they do not share. (A fly bothers me, I kill it: you kill what bothers you. If I had not killed the fly, it would have been out o/ pure liberalism: I am liberal in order not to be a killer.) —ROLAND BARTHES Xjrovetuwd THOMAS KRENS An important milestone in the history of the Guggenheim Museum was reached in 1993, when the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation made a combined gift of a significant body of photographs and a supporting grant for the future acquisition of Modern and contemporary photography. The gift established photography as a significant part of the Guggenheim's permanent collection, thus offering an additional medium to further the Guggenheim's mission of interpreting the art of this century. In the past few years, the museum has offered a rich selection of photography exhibitions including monographic shows on Robert Mapplethorpe and Joel-Peter Witkin; photography sections within the context of other exhibitions (The Italian Metamorphosis, 1943-1968; Joseph Albers: Glass, Color, and Light; and In/sight: African Photographers, 1940 to the Present); as well as exhibitions organized by other institutions, such as Photography in Contemporary German Art (Walker Art Center); Women on the Edge: Twenty Photographers in Europe, 1919-1939 (J. Paul Getty Museum); and Dieter Appelt (Art Institute of Chicago). As we reach the end of this century, more exhibitions that attempt to synthesize the art and issues of the twentieth century are being organized. The Guggenheim is committed to approaching art as an international and transhistorical phenomenon. The institution has always been strongly linked to Europe; now, responding to changes in contemporary society brought about through advances in transportation and telecommunications, its orientation has become global. Rrose is a Rrose is a Rrose: Gender Performance in Photography is the Guggenheim Museum's first photography exhibition to be based on premises that are thematic and theoretical rather than monographic or strictly historical. It traces an issue across the course of the twentieth century and examines its devel- opment in several countries. We are most grateful to the National Endowment for the Arts, a Federal agency, for its early sup- port of Rrose is a Rrose is a Rrose. Without its imprimatur, it is unlikely that the research for this pro- ject could have been undertaken. Through this support, our audience will be permitted to enjoy the art of many artists whose work has not previously been exhibited at the museum and, in some cases, has never before been shown in the United States. Guggenheim Museum Assistant Curator Jennifer Blessing proposed this exhibition several years ago. I want to thank her for suggesting this innovative show, and for her diligence and commitment in seeing it through to its splendid realization. And, finally, this exhibition would not be possible without the artists who created the works and the lenders who were so considerate as to lend them. My gratitude goes to all of the individuals and institutions who so generously contributed to the success of this project. JENNIFER BLESSING If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants. ISAAC NEWTON This exhibition is the fruit of encouragement from colleagues, without which I might not have pur- sued the topic. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to present my initial ideas in graduate semi- nars conducted by Linda Nochlin and Robert Lubar at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University. In 1993, Guggenheim Museum Associate Curator Nancy Spector first suggested that I pro- pose an exhibition related to my academic work in Surrealism and the theory of masquerade. I thank her for being a source of inspiration and a supportive comrade throughout this project. At an early stage in its development, the National Endowment for the Arts awarded a grant to Rrose is a Rrose is a Rrose: Gender Performance in Photography.

Informed by the queer studies turn toward negativity and the relational turn in African diaspora studies, my project examines the interventions of artists and writers of the diaspora who opt to recite intraracial failure (between blacks) in the face of their structurally overdetermined failure as minoritized subjects. I identify in textual and visual objects an engagement with the promise of intimacy attendant to the artist’s lived experience of diaspora and there I aim to expose the limits of diaspora discourse. My explorations of the failures of diaspora are aided by pushing on queer theories of negativity to speak to race. This project departs from traditional approaches to black failure such as the black mainstream’s condemnation or eschewal of black failure in favor of respectability politics and the black left’s redemption of failure through revisionist narratives of resistance.

  • Out Side In: in His Arresting Work, Lyle Ashton Harris Looks to the Recent Past for New Ways Forward by Maximilíano Durón POSTED 04/02/19 9:30 AM
    Out Side In: In His Arresting Work, Lyle Ashton Harris Looks to the Recent Past for New Ways Forward BY Maximilíano Durón POSTED 04/02/19 9:30 AM Lyle Ashton Harris photographed at his studio in New York City, January 2019. ALEX LOCKETT The video opens in a dimly lit bedroom. A voice offscreen begins to speak. “Sometimes, I feel, I guess, deprived. I don’t know. I guess I do know.” A Roberta Flack song plays softly in the background: “The first time ever I saw your face / I thought the sun rose in your eyes.” A young man with a mop of black hair in a red sweater and khakis—the speaker, presumably—walks onscreen and crawls on the bed. “What should I say?” he asks. Looking into the camera, he speaks again. After a few moments, he thinks better of it and goes to grab a chunky white cordless telephone and his address book. He spends the next hour talking with friends and family. He went dancing for the first time in a few months. He’s still processing his breakup with his boyfriend. He’s in pretty bad debt, but things are looking up: he’s going to be included in an upcoming show at the Whitney Museum. Lyle Ashton Harris made this video in the early 1990s, when he had just returned to Los Angeles after finishing the Whitney Independent Study Program in New York. Then in his 20s, Harris had been making diaristic videos for a few years, and photographing his life as it went along.

Located in Lower Manhattan, little more than a mile from Ground Zero, The Cooper Union has experienced particular stresses in recent years, and the Cooper Union community has welcomed the chance presented by this Periodic Review Report for reflection and introspection. The College is eager to articulate the changes it has made to address the unique issues faced by the institution, to reaffirm its ongoing commitment to academic excellence and to outline plans for a secure financial infrastructure to support that commitment. Planning for the preparation of this Periodic Review Report was coordinated by the Academic Council of the College and the Academic Affairs Committee of the Board, with input from faculty, students, staff and trustees. Early discussions led to a consensus on the approach and work plan for producing the document. A Periodic Review Report Working Group, with representation from all sectors of the community, and an editor were selected. The production process began within each of the aca- demic and administrative departments under the leadership of the Deans and department heads, with input from all constitu- ents.

  • The Vision of a Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao
    HARVARD DESIGN SCHOOL THE VISION OF A GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM IN BILBAO In a March 31, 1999 article, the Washington Post? posed the following question: "Can a single building bring a whole city back to life? More precisely, can a single modern building designed for an abandoned shipyard by a laid-back California architect breath new economic and cultural life into a decaying industri- al city in the Spanish rust belt?" Still, the issues addressed by the article illustrate only a small part of the multifaceted Guggenheim Museum of Bilbao. A thorough study of how this building was conceived and made reveals equally significant aspects such as getting the best from the design architect, the master handling of the project by an inexperienced owner, the pivotal role of the executive architect-project man- ager, the dependence on local expertise for construction, the transformation of the architectural profession by information technology, the budgeting and scheduling of an unprecedented project without sufficient information. By studying these issues, the greater question can be asked: "Can the success of the Guggenheim museum be repeated?" 1 Museum Puts Bilbao Back on Spain’s Economic and Cultural Maps T.R. Reid; The Washington Post; Mar 31, 1999; pg. A.16 Graduate student Stefanos Skylakakis prepared this case under the supervision of Professor Spiro N. Pollalis as the basis for class discussion rather to illustrate effective or ineffective handling of an administrative situation, a design process or a design itself.
