  • Mark Wallinger Italian Lessons
    Victoria Miro Mark Wallinger Italian Lessons Private View 5:30 – 7:30pm, Saturday 27 January 2018 Exhibition 27 January – 10 March 2018 Victoria Miro Venice, Il Capricorno, San Marco 1994, 30124 Venice, Italy Image: Mark Wallinger, Genius of Venice (detail), 1991 Glass, catalogue pages, nightlights, metal brackets 38 x 32 x 6 cm / 15 x 12 5/8 x 2 3/8 inches each, 7 parts Courtesy the artist and Hauser & Wirth Photo: Todd-White Art Photography © Mark Wallinger Victoria Miro, in collaboration with Hauser & Wirth, is delighted to present Italian Lessons, an exhibition by Mark Wallinger. Selected by the artist especially for Victoria Miro Venice, the works on display date from 1991 to 2016 and reflect a career-long engagement with ideas of power, authority, artifice and illusion. While sources of inspiration include the Italian masters and masterpieces in Italian collections, this is the first time many of these works have been shown in Italy. “In a sense, the exhibition is like my mini Grand Tour.” – Mark Wallinger Encompassing autobiography and art history, the Italian Lessons of the exhibition title are manifold. They refer to Wallinger’s own education and to his exposure to the Italian masters: via a charismatic college lecturer in his native Essex; a seminal exhibition in London; a bicycle tour from Paris to Florence. Equally, the Lessons make reference to the cornerstones of art history – such as the development of perspective and trompe-l’oeil techniques – and the shifts in consciousness they have brought about. Lessons theological as well as pedagogical may be deduced in the content or context of his source material, part of a long-term consideration of religion as one of the ideological forces through which order is imposed on the world.

Love Is What You Want , Lougher Contemporary. Crane , No Time for Love. The Kiss Was Beautiful , In The Art of Tracey Emin, distinguished critics from Britain and the United States address her achievement in depth for the first time, tracing Emin's influences from Egon Schiele to Judy Chicago and establishing her place in a larger tradition of postmodern and feminist art. Adopting a variety of critical approaches, contributors explore the full range of Emin's work, from photography and monoprints to installation art and videos, showing that, however raw and personal it may seem to be, it actually represents a carefully meditated response to vital issues in contemporary culture and society. Deals the truth about anal intercourse, at last: how liberating it is- but only for the purpetrator. In this case, the work explores the common experience of depression through a very personal and intimate lens. This artwork draws an important distinction between representation and presentation. This piece is not a representation of an object such as a painting or a sculpture. The art object doesn't refer to another object; it is the object itself. Some have argued that this was the key work in elevating women's experiences to the level of artistic expression.

    Regeneration Committee City Hall The Queen’s Walk London SE1 2AA Switchboard: 020 7983 4000 Minicom: 020 7983 4458 Web: www.london.gov.uk Boris Johnson Mayor 17 April 2015 Dear Boris Regeneration Committee – The Royal Docks I am writing further to our short review of the proposals to accelerate regeneration of the Royal Docks. We were grateful for the opportunity to visit the Docks with the Housing and Land team in December 2014. Following the visit, the Committee met on 5 February with Eric Sorensen, former Chief Executive of the London Docklands Development Corporation (LDDC) and representatives of the GLA, London First, and Centre for Cities. All the guests at the Committee’s meeting emphasised the scale of opportunity that the Docks present for London. We acknowledge the strategic imperative to get regeneration of the Royal Docks right, and we set out our findings below. The Mayor must take account of important lessons from Canary Wharf Our discussion revealed a number of ways in which the Mayor should learn from the development of Canary Wharf. Eric Sorensen highlighted the fact that previous plans for the Royal Docks have largely failed. For example, under the governance of the London Docklands Development Corporation (LDDC), while there were plans for an exhibition centre, retail shopping centre, and mixed housing development at Pontoon Dock, only the Excel exhibition centre was built.1 Eric observed that both the size and physical layout of the site present significant challenges for the regeneration of the area. However, in contrast to the LDDC – which was a time-limited organisation – the GLA is a major landowner at the Royal Docks, giving the Mayor higher level of control than in other Opportunity Areas in the London Plan.

[email protected] New Museum to Present Exhibition of Works by Tacita Dean Works to Feature Portraits of Creative Figures including Merce Cunningham, Leo Steinberg, Julie Mehretu, Claes Oldenburg, and Cy Twombly Tacita Dean, Still from Craneway Event, 2009. 16mm color anamorphic film, 108 mins. Courtesy the artist, Marian Goodman Gallery, New York / Paris, and Frith Street Gallery, London New York, NY…This May, the New Museum will present an exhibition of works by British artist Tacita Dean—the most substantial presentation of the artist’s work in New York to date. The presentation focuses on a group of recent pieces that capture five important American artists and thinkers of the last fifty years and features Merce Cunningham, Leo Steinberg, Julie Mehretu, Claes Oldenburg, and Cy Twombly. These works are beautifully crafted portraits of each individual, opening a lens onto their artistic processes and personal memories. This installation, organized in close collaboration with Dean, brings together an under-recognized strand of her practice and provides insight into the way in which her filmmaking intersects with painting, sculpture, writing, and dance.This exhibition is part of a series of focus shows concentrating on a single project or body of work within an artist’s larger practice which began last May with presentations by Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Gustav Metzger. “Tacita Dean: Five Americans” will be on view from May 6–July 1, 2012, and is curated by Massimiliano Gioni, Associate Director and Director of Exhibitions, and Margot Norton, Curatorial Associate.
