In both instances, the issue of participation becomes increasingly so-called ‘interactive’ art and installation.

He argued that when judging a work’s politics, we should not look at practices since the 1960s that appropriate social forms as a way to bring art the artist’s declared sympathies, but at the position that the work occupies in closer to everyday life: intangible experiences such as dancing samba (Hélio the production relations of its time. Referring directly to the example of Soviet Oiticica) or funk (Adrian Piper); drinking beer (Tom Marioni); discussing Russia, Benjamin maintained that the work of art should actively intervene in philosophy (Ian Wilson) or politics (Joseph Beuys); organizing a garage sale and provide a model for allowing viewers to be involved in the processes of (Martha Rosler); running a café (Allen Ruppersberg; Daniel Spoerri; Gordon production: ‘this apparatus is better, the more consumers it is able to turn into Matta-Clark), a hotel (Alighiero Boetti; Ruppersberg) or a travel agency (Christo producers – that is, the more readers or spectators into collaborators’.5 By way of and Jeanne-Claude).

International contemporary art plays its part in helping us to navigate a changing world. As a global bank we want to understand, and engage with, different regions and cultures, which is why the Deutsche Bank Collection features contemporary artists from all over the globe. These artists connect us to their worlds. Art is displayed throughout our offices globally, challenging us to think differently, inviting us to look at the world through new eyes. Artists are innovators and they encourage us to innovate. Deutsche Bank has been involved in contemporary art since 1979 and the ‘ArtWorks’ concept is an integral part of our Corporate Citizenship programme. We offer employees, clients and the general public access to the collection and partner with museums, art fairs and other institutions to encourage emerging talent.

  • Brazilian Undersea Features: a Gazetteer of Geographical Names
    SBGF278 Brazilian undersea features: A Gazetteer of geographical names Koji Jinno and Jairo Marcondes de Souza PETROBRAS/E&P, Brazil Abstract “You f(ool) yourself quite, when you don’t communicate rite”. It is problematic when everybody does not speak the same language. As a matter of fact, a word does not have the same meaning for different people or distinct names can be assigned to a particular thing. A recent survey shows different names for some submarine features of the Brazilian continental margin and thus the need to establish a Gazetteer of Brazilian undersea feature names. INTRODUCTION “Quem não se comunica se trumbica” – “You f(ool) yourself quite, when you don’t communicate rite ”, used to say the late Brazilian TV entertainer “Chacrinha”. For a good communication, however, everybody has to speak or understand the same language. But the meaning of a word varies with people and circumstances. Likewise, different names can be assigned to the same fact, object, situation, anything whatsoever. Wrong or inadequate names can cause huge troubles. Some years ago, a drilling location offshore Brazil was designated, according to the rules of the company, with the name of the state it was assumed the territorial waters belonged to. The authorities of the neighbour state argued that the limits of the waters were actually wrong and the well had to be named after their state so that the royalties would be theirs; the location had two names, depending on the officers of each state. The company had to give neutral names to future locations. UNDERSEA FEATURE NAMES The mention of Sao Paulo Plateau can bring two thoughts to the participants in an international oceanography meeting: - Is it the name of the feature in southern Brazilian continental margin known world over and listed as Santos Plateau in the Gazetteer (IHO/IOC, 1997)? (Brazilian geologists are unfamiliar with the latest); - Is it a feature not yet described near the Saint Paul Fracture Zone? (Known in Brazil as São Paulo Fracture Zone).

  • Hans Ulrich Obrist a Brief History of Curating
    Hans Ulrich Obrist A Brief History of Curating JRP | RINGIER & LES PRESSES DU REEL 2 To the memory of Anne d’Harnoncourt, Walter Hopps, Pontus Hultén, Jean Leering, Franz Meyer, and Harald Szeemann 3 Christophe Cherix When Hans Ulrich Obrist asked the former director of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Anne d’Harnoncourt, what advice she would give to a young curator entering the world of today’s more popular but less experimental museums, in her response she recalled with admiration Gilbert & George’s famous ode to art: “I think my advice would probably not change very much; it is to look and look and look, and then to look again, because nothing replaces looking … I am not being in Duchamp’s words ‘only retinal,’ I don’t mean that. I mean to be with art—I always thought that was a wonderful phrase of Gilbert & George’s, ‘to be with art is all we ask.’” How can one be fully with art? In other words, can art be experienced directly in a society that has produced so much discourse and built so many structures to guide the spectator? Gilbert & George’s answer is to consider art as a deity: “Oh Art where did you come from, who mothered such a strange being. For what kind of people are you: are you for the feeble-of-mind, are you for the poor-at-heart, art for those with no soul. Are you a branch of nature’s fantastic network or are you an invention of some ambitious man? Do you come from a long line of arts? For every artist is born in the usual way and we have never seen a young artist.

    Studio International magazine: Tales from Peter Townsend’s editorial papers 1965-1975 Joanna Melvin 49015858 2013 Declaration of authorship I, Joanna Melvin certify that the worK presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this is indicated in the thesis. i Tales from Studio International Magazine: Peter Townsend’s editorial papers, 1965-1975 When Peter Townsend was appointed editor of Studio International in November 1965 it was the longest running British art magazine, founded 1893 as The Studio by Charles Holme with editor Gleeson White. Townsend’s predecessor, GS Whittet adopted the additional International in 1964, devised to stimulate advertising. The change facilitated Townsend’s reinvention of the radical policies of its founder as a magazine for artists with an international outlooK. His decision to appoint an International Advisory Committee as well as a London based Advisory Board show this commitment. Townsend’s editorial in January 1966 declares the magazine’s aim, ‘not to ape’ its ancestor, but ‘rediscover its liveliness.’ He emphasised magazine’s geographical position, poised between Europe and the US, susceptible to the influences of both and wholly committed to neither, it would be alert to what the artists themselves wanted. Townsend’s policy pioneered the magazine’s presentation of new experimental practices and art-for-the-page as well as the magazine as an alternative exhibition site and specially designed artist’s covers. The thesis gives centre stage to a British perspective on international and transatlantic dialogues from 1965-1975, presenting case studies to show the importance of the magazine’s influence achieved through Townsend’s policy of devolving responsibility to artists and Key assistant editors, Charles Harrison, John McEwen, and contributing editor Barbara Reise.

    The Art of Quotation. Forms and Themes of the Art Quote, 1990–2010. An Essay Nina Heydemann, Abu Dhabi I. Introduction A “Japanese” Mona Lisa? An “improved” Goya? A “murdered” Warhol? In 1998, the Japanese artist Yasumasa Morimura staged himself as Mona Lisa.1 Five years later, the British sibling duo Jake and Dinos Chapman ‘rectified’ Francisco de Goya’s etching series „The Disas- ters of War“ by overpainting the figures with comic faces.2 In 2007, Richard Prince spoke about his intention in the 1990s of having wanted to murder Andy Warhol.3 What is it in artists and artworks from the past that prompts so many diverse reactions in contempo- rary art today? In which forms do contemporary artists refer to older works of art? And what themes do they address with them? This paper is an extract of a dissertation that deals with exactly these questions and analyses forms and themes of art quotes.4 Many 1 In the series „Mona Lisa – In Its Origin, In Pregnancy, In The Third Place“ Yasumasa Morimura raised questions of his Japanese identity and hybrid sexuality based on Leonardo da Vinci’s masterwork. 2 Jake Chapman quoted in the Guardian: "We always had the intention of rectifying it, to take that nice word from The Shining, when the butler's trying to encourage Jack Nicholson to kill his family – to rectify the situation".
