  • MEDIA RELEASE Thomas Demand 'Daily Show' 26 September – 13
    MEDIA RELEASE Thomas Demand ‘Daily Show’ 26 September – 13 December 2015 21 Woodlands Terrace, Glasgow, G3 6DF Exhibition preview on Friday 25 September, 6 - 8pm Exhibition open: Wednesday – Sunday 12pm – 5pm, until 7pm on Thursday and by appointment. The Common Guild is delighted to announce its next exhibition of 2015: a new solo presentation by renowned German artist, Thomas Demand, one of the most distinctive artists of his generation. The exhibition will include new and recent works from Demand’s series ‘The Dailies’, presented in an installation devised specially for the particular nature of the spaces at The Common Guild and involving a new wallpaper. ‘The Dailies’ is a project that calls to mind the extent to which photography has in recent times become a commonplace, daily and social pursuit – a note-taking, diary-like practice for so many. While the exhibition as a whole prompts questions about the compulsion to make images as well as the contemporary relevance and use of photography. ‘Daily Show’ is an exhibition that sits resolutely in the context of the exponential growth in online image sharing, which now sees thousands of images uploaded to social media sites every second. Demand’s works have often been based on images in widespread circulation, whether in mainstream news media or online, what critic Hal Foster has aptly described as “our shared media memory”. They have included many significant scenes, from the Oval Office to Saddam Hussein’s last hiding place. ‘The Dailies’, however, find their origins in less historic places: for each is based on a photograph taken on Demand’s mobile phone.

  • DAN PERJOVSCHI to CREATE SITE-SPECIFIC WALL DRAWING for Moma’S PROJECTS SERIES
    DAN PERJOVSCHI TO CREATE SITE-SPECIFIC WALL DRAWING FOR MoMA’S PROJECTS SERIES Drawings on Atrium Wall Will Reflect Current Social and Political Events Projects 85: Dan Perjovschi WHAT HAPPENED TO US? May 2–August 27, 2007 The Donald B. and Catherine C. Marron Atrium, second floor NEW YORK, April 11, 2007—The Museum of Modern Art presents Projects 85: Dan Perjovschi, WHAT HAPPENED TO US?, a site-specific wall drawing for the east wall of The Donald B. and Catherine C. Marron Atrium, as part of the Museum’s ongoing Projects series. For his first solo museum exhibition in the United States, Perjovschi (Romanian, b. 1961)—who has transformed the medium of drawing, making it an object, a performance, and an installation—will spontaneously draw witty and incisive social and political images in response to current events, allowing global and local affairs to inform the final result. Beginning on April 19, he will start drawing on the wall while the Museum is open to the public, allowing visitors to observe the creation of the work. The project is accompanied by a free newspaper created by the artist. A discussion with the artist about his work will be held on April 25 in The Celeste Bartos Theater. Projects 85, on view May 2 through August 27, is organized by Roxana Marcoci, Curator, Department of Photography, The Museum of Modern Art. “Perjovschi’s sketches and skits portray reality with a sense of criticality and pointed humor. Using concise phrases and wordplay, he employs textual puns in his work. This is clear in the work's rhetorical title, WHAT HAPPENED TO US?, in which ‘US’ may refer to either the pronoun ‘us’ or the noun ‘United States of America’,” states Ms.

Every other Monday, we’ll publish a new Q&A here on It’s Nice That. Today, for the first instalment, we sent our writer Ruby Boddington to Paris to meet the Los Angeles-based German artist Thomas Demand. “The Louvre, the Centre Pompidou, these galleries are all great but places like Palais de Tokyo are the most exciting. And it has a great bookshop.” This was what Thomas Demand told me to do with my afternoon in Paris after our interview at the city’s Hôtel Lutetia. “What about the Eiffel Tower?” I asked. He responded: “It looks the same as in the photos.” It’s a particularly funny comment coming from Thomas Demand, a man whose work is concerned with exactly that: making things look, in photographs, exactly the same as they do in real life. A German-born sculptor and photographer who now splits his time between Berlin and Los Angeles, Thomas recreates famous scenes from current affairs, to scale and in breathtaking detail and accuracy – entirely out of paper.

  • Jewish Survivors and Descendants of Survivors of Nazi Genocide Unequivocally Condemn the Massacre of Palestinians in Gaza
    Jewish survivors and descendants of survivors of Nazi genocide unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza As Jewish survivors and descendents of survivors of the Nazi genocide we unequivocally condemn the massacre of Palestinians in Gaza and the ongoing occupation and colonization of historic Palestine. We further condemn the United States for providing Israel with the funding to carry out the attack, and Western states more generally for using their diplomatic muscle to protect Israel from condemnation. Genocide begins with the silence of the world. We are alarmed by the extreme, racist dehumanization of Palestinians in Israeli society, which has reached a fever-pitch. In Israel, politicians and pundits in The Times of Israel and The Jerusalem Post have called openly for genocide of Palestinians and right-wing Israelis are adopting Neo-Nazi insignia. Furthermore, we are disgusted and outraged by Elie Wiesel’s abuse of our history in other media to promote blatant falsehoods used to justify the unjustifiable: Israel’s wholesale effort to destroy Gaza and the murder of nearly 2,000 Palestinians, including many hundreds of children. Nothing can justify bombing UN shelters, homes, hospitals and universities. Nothing can justify depriving people of electricity and water. We must raise our collective voices and use our collective power to bring about an end to all forms of racism, including the ongoing genocide of Palestinian people. We call for an immediate end to the siege against and blockade of Gaza. We call for the full economic, cultural and academic boycott of Israel. “Never again” must mean NEVER AGAIN FOR ANYONE!

  • Franz Kugler, Karl Schnaase, and Gottfried Semper1
    Projecting the future in German art historiography of the nineteenth century: Franz Kugler, Karl Schnaase, and Gottfried Semper1 Henrik Karge Figure 1 Franz Kugler, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel at the lectern, 1828. Frankfurt am Main, Goethe-Haus – Freies Deutsches Hochstift. Diathek TU Dresden Hegel’s provocative concept of the end of art – or, more precisely, of the retrospective character of art – has generated much reflection and controversy since the early nineteenth century. Most discussions of art’s end take Hegel’s philosophy as a starting point, but the context in which Hegel developed his theories about art was quite different from that of today. The main source for this famous concept comes from a passage in Heinrich Gustav Hotho’s introduction to Hegel’s Lectures on Aesthetics, which Hotho edited and published in 1835, after Hegel’s death: Art, considered in its highest vocation, is and remains for us a thing of the past. Thereby it has lost for us genuine truth and life, and has instead been transferred into our ideas instead of maintaining its earlier necessity in reality and occupying its higher place.2 1 For the English correction of this article, I would like to express my deep gratitude to Jeanne-Marie Musto. 2 Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Hegel’s Aesthetics: Lectures on Fine Art, trans. T. M. Knox, Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1975, 11. Original text: ‘In allen diesen Beziehungen ist und bleibt die Kunst nach der Seite ihrer höchsten Bestimmung für uns ein Vergangenes. Damit hat sie für uns auch die echte Wahrheit und Lebendigkeit verloren und ist mehr in unsere Vorstellung verlegt, als daß sie in der Wirklichkeit ihre frühere Notwendigkeit behauptete und ihren höheren Platz einnähme.’ Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Werke, xiii: Vorlesungen über die Ästhetik, I, Frankfurt am Main: Suhrkamp Verlag, 1986, 25.

  • Man Sieht, Die Antike Ist in Italien Schnell in Die Literatur, Sehr Langsam in Die Malerei Eingedrungen
    Man sieht, die Antike ist in Italien schnell in die Literatur, sehr langsam in die Malerei eingedrungen. Gottfried Kinkels Forschungen zu „Brautkistenbildern“ von 1876 Henrike Haug In Gottfried Kinkels (1815–1882) Untersuchung zu den Anfängen weltlicher Malerei in Italien auf Möbeln verbinden sich Fachgeschichte, die Erforschung der Bildtradition antiker Mythologien sowie die Suche nach einem „Sozialismus in der Kunstgeschichte“ zu einem unkonventionellen kultur- historischen System.1 Kinkels Text von 1876 gehört zu drei weiteren Arbeiten, die sich mit den gesellschaftlichen Voraussetzungen für die Genese einer profanen Ikonographie in der Frühen Neuzeit auseinandersetzen.2 Dass diese vier Aufsätze thematisch zusammengehören, wird durch den Autor selbst festgelegt, der in seinem Mosaik zur Kunstgeschichte schreibt: Drei dieser Aufsätze haben einen inneren Zusammenhang: sie weisen auf, wie durch die Gerechtigkeitsbilder auf den Rathhäusern, durch die Möbelmalerei in Italien und durch die bemalten Tische Deutschlands zuerst weltliche Gegenstände massenweise in die Kunst eingeführt worden sind. Wer hier vollständig verfahren wollte, müßte freilich auch noch das Auftreten des Socialismus in den Genrebildern des Quinten Matsys, ferner die Tapeten des Mittelalters und die frühesten Glasgemälde, sondern sie zum Schmuck von weltlichen Gebäuden und Privatwohnungen bestimmt waren, durchmustern und zusammenstellen.3 Zugleich macht Kinkel deutlich, dass er innerhalb dieser vier Schriften explizit eine eigene innovative Methode verfolgt: Wenn man

    How to write plausibly about Architecture and architectural History, according to A. Rosengarten (1809-1893) Stefan Muthesius Figures 1 and 2 Kassel Synagoge by A. Rosengarten (official architect Landesbaumeister August Schuchardt) 1832 – 1839, front, Allgemeine Bauzeitung [Vienna], vol. 5, 1840, 205-0207, plates cccl and cccli.

Rosengarten, Zeitschrift für Bauwesen, vol. lll, Nos. III, IV, Bl. 13. On the whole the career of architect A. Rosengarten must be rated as rather a modest one, but it was certainly also a very unusual one. Apart from Albert, Rosengarten used for first names also Albrecht and Abraham. His initial rise to fame lay with the claim of being the first Jewish architect to design a major synagogue, in Kassel, completed in 1839 (figs. 1 & 2). In Hamburg, where he settled after the great fire of 1842, he kept himself busy with diverse secular commissions, as well as with two relatively modest synagogues in the 1850s (figs. 3 & 4). Very few of his buildings made it into the professional journals of the time.

  • Art History at the Art School: Revisiting the Institutional Origins of the Discipline Based on the Case of Nineteenth-Century Greece
    Art history at the art school: Revisiting the institutional origins of the discipline based on the case of nineteenth-century Greece Eleonora Vratskidou Scholarly courses at the art school: a blind spot of research The elaboration of a theoretical discourse on art has been a main concern of art academies since their creation in the sixteenth century. This concern was nurtured by the need to regulate artistic production through the establishment of specific norms and values, and, at the same time, it was intricately linked to the promotion of the artist’s status and the legitimization of the artistic profession. The articulation of theoretical discourse in the academies took place mainly in the framework of conferences among peers – by and for an elite of peers – where multiple alternating voices could engage in fruitful debate. However, towards the end of the eighteenth and during the early nineteenth century the plurivocal structure of the conferences was, in many cases, gradually replaced by actual courses offered by a unique professor. Along with practical training, courses of history, archaeology, art history, art theory and aesthetics were systematically incorporated into the academic curricula in the context of larger pedagogical and institutional reforms. This is the period in which Ancient Régime artistic structures were reformed, while new art schools were created, and the academic system of art education expanded in the recently founded nation-states of Europe and the Americas. A series of questions arise from this development. Whereas courses in art theory and aesthetics could be seen as a further pursuing of old concerns, courses in art history were less expected.
