Chapter 12. the Avant-Garde in the Late 20Th Century 1
Chapter 12. The Avant-Garde in the Late 20th Century 1 The Avant-Garde in the Late 20th Century: Modernism becomes Postmodernism A college student walks across campus in 1960. She has just left her room in the sorority house and is on her way to the art building. She is dressed for class, in carefully coordinated clothes that were all purchased from the same company: a crisp white shirt embroidered with her initials, a cardigan sweater in Kelly green wool, and a pleated skirt, also Kelly green, that reaches right to her knees. On her feet, she wears brown loafers and white socks. She carries a neatly packed bag, filled with freshly washed clothes: pants and a big work shirt for her painting class this morning; and shorts, a T-shirt and tennis shoes for her gym class later in the day. She’s walking rather rapidly, because she’s dying for a cigarette and knows that proper sorority girls don’t ever smoke unless they have a roof over their heads. She can’t wait to get into her painting class and light up. Following all the rules of the sorority is sometimes a drag, but it’s a lot better than living in the dormitory, where girls have ten o’clock curfews on weekdays and have to be in by midnight on weekends. (Of course, the guys don’t have curfews, but that’s just the way it is.) Anyway, it’s well known that most of the girls in her sorority marry well, and she can’t imagine anything she’d rather do after college. -

Real Presences Marcel Broodthaers Today 11 September 2010 – 16 January 2011 Kunsthalle Düsseldorf and Kunstverein Für Die Rheinlande Und Westfalen
Real presences Marcel Broodthaers today 11 September 2010 – 16 January 2011 Kunsthalle Düsseldorf and Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen This joint exhibition by the Kunsthalle Düsseldorf and Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen presents selected works by international artists that make explicit reference to Marcel Broodthaers or that examine and further develop motifs from his oeuvre. These motifs include those that question the museum as an institution, examine imagination and outer appearance as a deconstruction of the cinematic image, and explore the relationship between language, writing and images. Ideas that were dealt with much later under the heading of institutional criticism also turn up in Broodthaers’ work, whose radical, pioneering qualities survive to this day. The exhibition conveys the Quadriennale theme “Kunstgegenwärtig” (art in the present) through the participating artists’ relationship with Broodthaers. By referring to Broodthaers’ work in a variety of ways and thus acknowledging him as a source of inspiration, they demonstrate the relevance and “real presence” of his oeuvre, even in his absence. Tacita Dean’s work Parrot depicts a parrot under palm trees in front of the Atomium in Brussels. The photograph, which the artist came across at a Brussels flea market, seems to be a rebus, a riddle to which there can be only one answer: Broodthaers. Dean is interested in exploring what is hidden and what is visible, especially with regard to unusual places and their past and present. Her films are infused with a painter’s sensibility and reflect absence and disappearance with unsettling intensity while at the same time questioning the very medium in which they are made. -
Food Art: Is It Collectible? Sharon Hecker Have You Ever Wondered
Food Art: Is It Collectible? Sharon Hecker Have you ever wondered whether to collect Food Art and how does one go about it? Does it make sense for a collector or a museum to buy an artwork that can melt, rot or stink? What is the “value” of an artwork that can organically deteriorate? What kind of art historical due diligence and conservational treatments can be conducted on such a work? Art made of ephemeral material is nothing new. For the past century, artists have been experimenting with non-traditional media in art as a way of expressing their modernity: in the early 20th century, Picasso added bits of paper, string, rope and tickets to his paintings, Duchamp exhibited his Readymades, and Gabo worked with early synthetics such as plastic. As the century moved on, there was an explosion of uses of industrial materials from plastic to steel, as well as “poor” materials like coal, felt straw, tree branches, found objects, installations and performances with things found in nature. With the advent of Fluxus, Arte povera and Pop art, anything at all became fair game for making artworks. Among these experimental media was Food Art. In some cases, this medium became appreciated for its performance value and for the symbolic meaning of the food chosen by the artist. For example, Marcel Broodthaers’ signature materials, cracked eggshells and mussels, were intended as allusions to the difference between Belgian and French cultures and cuisines. Sometimes, as with Piero Manzoni’s boiled eggs in his performance Consumazione dell’arte dinamica del pubblico divorare l’arte (1960) or Felix-González-Torres’ candy installations, the food was presented to be eaten by viewers in a form of symbolic participation in the creation of the artwork. -
Orlowski, Hans
Hans Otto Orlowski, Die Stolze (The Proud One) Insterburg 1894 - 1967 Berlin oil and mixed media on wood 21 ¼ by 18 inches (54 by 45.7 cm) monogramed and dated upper left: ‘1931’ provenance: Collection Habbel, Gut Weisham; sale Ketterer Kunst GmbH, Munich, May 14, 2004, no. 69; Private Collection, South Germany exhibited: Hans Orlowski, Galerie Wolfgang Gurlitt, Berlin, 1934. literature: Fritz Schwarzenberger, Werkverzeichnis Hans Orlowski, Berlin, 1972, no. 33. note: The painter and print-maker Hans Otto Orlowski (fig. 1) was born in Insterburg near Köningsburg in East Prussia. His father was a tailor and moved the family to Köningsberg, Potsdam, and then Charlottenburg. Orlowski first studied at the Academy of Decorative Arts in Berlin from 1911 to 1915. But the First World War interrupted his studies and he served briefly as a soldier in Serbia until he was wounded. He was then employed as a draftsman in the War Ministry, but also began producing his first independent prints. In 1918 he returned to art school and became a member of the Berlin Secession, a progressive group whose members included, among others, Lovis Corinth, Käthe Kollwitz, and Emil Nolde. Orlowski graduated in 1919, and in 1921 he began teaching at the Decorative Arts Academy in Charlottenberg, where he remained until 1945. In 1924 he visited Paris, and his style evolved away from Expressionism to a more realistic, even classical, manner applied primarily to nudes. The artist’s first one man exhibition, which included the present painting, was held in Berlin in 1934 at the Wolfgang Gurlitt Gallery, which was renowned for being one of the first in Germany to show Matisse, Kokoschka, Slevogt, Corinth, and Kubin. -
The Salt Mine's Art Treasures
!1 of !3 The Salt Mine´s Art Treasures English translation of article by Ulla Arnell at: http://ueforum.se/17/175/175varld1.html When World War II ended, the outside world was amazed by the art found in the salt mines of Altaussee, Austria. The bombs placed at the entrance to the mine never came to detonate and the art could be rescued. Ulla Arnell has visited Altaussee and met a strong exhibition in its right environment. On the way from Linz, the city that Hitler called his hometown and wanted to make Europe´s and the whole world´s cultural centre, I pass Attersee, one of Austria´s turquoise clear alp lakes where Klint spent his summers painting the sparkling landscape, and Mahler took inspiration for his second and third symphony. The journey continues towards Salzkammergut and turns by the popular spa and resort of Bad Ischl, where the Habsburgers had their summer residence during the18th century, then a meeting place for the superpowers´ diplomatic deliberations. It was here, after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914, that Emperor Franz Josef signed the declaration of war with Serbia, which triggered World War I. The road becomes increasingly curvy and winds up and down the outskirts of the Austrian Alps. The landscape is beautiful and idyllic as in the Sound of Music, green sloping meadows and houses with flower arrangements on their balconies and porches. Everyone who knows the Nazis’ art thefts knows that Altaussee is a symbolically loaded place with a very special relation to art, to the Third Reich, to war, to ethics and to morals. -

New Media, or digitally generated art, has become a paradigm for artists concerned with entering and mediating our relationship to technology while underscoring the increasingly surrogate experience technology affords in its supplanting of human relationships and interactions. As with any term associated with technology, New Media’s definition is constantly outdated, expanded, and updated. -
