  • PRESS RELEASE Art Into Life!
    Contact: Anne Niermann / Sonja Hempel Press and Public Relations Heinrich-Böll-Platz 50667 Cologne Tel + 49 221 221 23491 [email protected] [email protected] PRESS RELEASE Art into Life! Collector Wolfgang Hahn and the 60s June 24 – September 24, 2017 Press conference: Thursday, June 22, 11 a.m., preview starts at 10 a.m. Opening: Friday, June 23, 7 p.m. In the 1960s, the Rhineland was already an important center for a revolutionary occurrence in art: a new generation of artists with international networks rebelled against traditional art. They used everyday life as their source of inspiration and everyday objects as their material. They went out into their urban surroundings, challenging the limits of the art disciplines and collaborating with musicians, writers, filmmakers, and dancers. In touch with the latest trends of this exciting period, the Cologne painting restorer Wolfgang Hahn (1924–1987) began acquiring this new art and created a multifaceted collection of works of Nouveau Réalisme, Fluxus, Happening, Pop Art, and Conceptual Art. Wolfgang Hahn was head of the conservation department at the Wallraf Richartz Museum and the Museum Ludwig. This perspective influenced his view of contemporary art. He realized that the new art from around 1960 was quintessentially processual and performative, and from the very beginning he visited the events of new music, Fluxus events, and Happenings. He initiated works such as Daniel Spoerri’s Hahns Abendmahl (Hahn’s Supper) of 1964, implemented Lawrence Weiner’s concept A SQUARE REMOVAL FROM A RUG IN USE of 1969 in his living room, and not only purchased concepts and scores from artists, but also video works and 16mm films.

  • Remnant Romance-Weber and Robson Press Release
    Aurora Robson Responds to Idelle Weber’s Photorealist Paintings with New Works In Exhibition that Features Both Artists’ Explorations of the Aesthetic and Material Qualities of Trash On View January 14 – February 20, 2021 Hollis Taggart is pleased to announce a two-person exhibition of work by Idelle Weber and Aurora Robson. Remnant Romance, Environmental Works: Idelle Weber and Aurora Robson will feature oil paintings and watercolors by Weber (1932-2020) alongside new multimedia sculptural work by Robson (b. 1972), who studied the late artist’s work while creating new pieces for the exhibition. Remnant Romance will create a dialogue between the artists, who, despite working in different media and being part of distinct generations, both draw inspiration from trash and seek to find beauty in the remnants of other peoples’ lives. Remnant Romance, Environmental Works: Idelle Weber and Aurora Robson will be on view at Hollis Taggart at 521 West 26th Street from January 14 through February 20, 2021. Idelle Weber is perhaps most well known for her contribution to Pop Art and her famous silhouette paintings, in which she depicted anonymous figures doing quotidian activities against nondescript backgrounds. In the late 1960s, continuing to find inspiration in the everyday but shifting in style to photorealism, Weber turned her attention to overlooked common daily sights in New York City such as fruit stands and street litter. The artist’s photorealist paintings were a continuation of the consumerism reflected in her Pop Art works, and were exhibited more widely. Over the past decade, however, Weber’s Pop Art has received more attention, largely due to curator Sid Sach’s inclusion of her silhouette paintings in his Beyond the Surface and Seductive Subversion exhibitions in 2010.

  • Tracing the Interactive Relationship Between Iceland and Dieter Roth
    Exile, Correspondence, Rebellion – Tracing the Interactive Relationship between Iceland and Dieter Roth Anna Jóhannsdóttir Abstract The Swiss-German artist Dieter Roth (1930–1998) lived in Iceland for a long time and maintained a close relationship with the country throughout his life. Much of his early experimental book art was produced in Iceland between 1957 and 1964, at first under the influence of concrete art, until he shifted towards more radical avant-garde ideas and methods linked with the Fluxus movement – ideas he continued to develop through correspondence with important European artists and which he imported into the local art scene, where he was a shaping force in the 1960s and ’70s. It was love that brought Dieter Roth (1930–1998) to Iceland in 1957. Following his wife-to-be, he embarked Gullfoss, a ship named after the majestic Icelandic “golden waterfall”, and sailed from Copenhagen to Reykjavík. The young artist would eventually develop a strong and lasting relationship with the country. In fact, it is tempting to compare his impact in Iceland to a golden waterfall: Dieter, as he is usually referred to in Iceland, certainly was a fascinating flux of creative energy; a goldmine of artistic ideas and improvisational talent. When considering this relationship and exploring its interactivity, two main questions arise: how Roth’s stay in the country may have shaped his artistic work, and how his presence influenced the local art scene, in particu- lar Iceland as an arena of avant-garde cultural activity, a melting pot of experimentation. Without Dieter, contemporary avant-garde activity in the visual arts “would perhaps all have gone by unnoticed”, the artist, stage designer and influential teacher Magnús Pálsson (b.

  • Alessandro Ludovico
    POSt- DIGITAL PRINT The Mutation of Publishing since 1894 Alessandro Ludovico ONOMATOPEE 77 In this post-digital age, digital technology is no longer a revolutionary phenomenon but a normal part of every- day life. The mutation of music and film into bits and bytes, downloads and streams is now taken for granted. For the world of book and magazine publishing however, this transformation has only just begun. Still, the vision of this transformation is far from new. For more than a century now, avant-garde artists, activists and technologists have been anticipating the development of networked and electronic publishing. Although in hindsight the reports of the death of paper were greatly exaggerated, electronic publishing has now certainly become a reality. How will the analog and the digital coexist in the post-digital age of publishing? How will they transition, mix and cross over? In this book, Alessandro Ludovico re-reads the history of media technology, cultural activism and the avant- garde arts as a prehistory of cutting through the so-called dichotomy between paper and electronics. Ludovico is the editor and publisher of Neural, a magazine for critical digital culture and media arts. For more than twenty years now, he has been working at the cutting edge (and the outer fringes) of both print publishing and politically engaged digital art.
