Andro Wekua Sprüth Magers, Berlin April 27 – September 8, 2018 At the center of Andro Wekua’s new exhibition at Sprüth Magers is a life-size sculpture made of nickel silver - a silver-like alloy of copper, nickel and zinc - and a group of paintings. The untitled sculpture recalls Wekua’s earlier mannequin figures and continues their subtle formal vocabulary. The androgynous figure appears situated between the sexes; its body has a prepubescent, almost childlike look. On the back of the sculpture sits a small, black bronze Pegasus with purple wings—a futuristic element, childish toy and mythical reference in one. The physical proportions of this figure are realistic only at first glance; they are unthinkable in real life. The figure is a composite of various, non-related body parts. Before casting, it was composed of miscellaneous models of real limbs. Even the sculpture’s body posture probes the limits of what is physically possible. It recalls the Christ figure in Michelangelo’s unfinished Rondanini Pietà. In the original, the Virgin Mary stands behind her dead son and tries to hold him upright. Wekua’s figure stands in a pool; water runs from parallel slits on its arms and shoulders. Its silvery surface is in constant motion and yet it appears preserved in a state of perpetual stagnation. For all its overt artificiality, this figure seems to lead a psychological life of its own. It seems strangely, if improbably, alive. The sculpture is surrounded by a series of paintings. Wekua uses an architectural redefinition of the space to create his own viewing plane for the paintings while simultaneously reflecting the centrally-positioned sculpture as an object in space. -

Published in conjunction with the first large-scale, multi-medium, posthumous retrospective of Willem de Kooning’s career, this publication offers an unparalleled opportunity to appreciate the development of the artist’s work as it unfolded over nearly seven decades, beginning with his early academic works, made in Holland before he moved to the United States in 1926, and concluding with his final, sparely abstract paintings of the late 1980s. The volume presents approximately 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints, covering the full diversity of de Kooning’s art and placing his many masterpieces in the context of a complex and fascinating pictorial practice. -
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. -
Charles Saatchi's 'Newspeak'
Charles Saatchi’s ‘Newspeak’ By Jackie Wullschlager Published: June 4 2010 22:15 | Last updated: June 4 2010 22:15 Is Charles Saatchi having fun? On the plus side, he is the biggest private collector in Britain. His Chelsea gallery is among the most beautiful and well-appointed in the world. It is relaxed, impious, free, and full, which matters because, as Saatchi often admits, “I primarily buy art to show it off.” He buys whatever he likes, often on a whim: “the key is to have very wobbly taste.” Yet for all the flamboyance with which he presents his purchases, it is not clear that he is convinced by them. “By and large talent is in such short supply mediocrity can be taken for brilliance rather more than genius can go undiscovered,” he says, adding that when history edits the late 20th century, “every artist other than Jackson Pollock, Andy Warhol, Donald Judd and Damien Hirst will be a footnote.” These quotations come from a question-and-answer volume, My Name is Charles Saatchi and I am an Artoholic, published last autumn, and their tone of breezy disenchantment, combined with the insouciance with which his new show, Newspeak, is selected and curated, suggests that at 67 Saatchi is downgrading his game. After recent exhibitions concentrated on China, the Middle East, America and India, Newspeak It Happened In The Corner’ (2007) by Glasgow-based duo littlewhitehead returns to the territory with which he made his name as a collector in Sensation in 1997: young British artists. But whereas Sensation, tightly selected around curator Norman Rosenthal’s theme of a “new and radical attitude to realism” by artists including Hirst, Jake and Dinos Chapman, Rachel Whiteread, Marc Quinn, had a precise, powerful theme, Newspeak has a scatter-gun, unfocused approach. -

Georg Baselitz: Raw Views of a Painful Past
The New York Times February 26, 2014 GAGOSIAN GALLERY Georg Baselitz: Raw Views of a Painful Past Farah Nayeri Georg Baselitz in his studio. Credit Martin Müller/Gagosian Gallery LONDON — In the autumn of 1958, an East German art student ventured into an exhibition of American paintings and was staggered by what he saw. Hanging on wall after wall of a West Berlin academy were works by Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and other Abstract Expressionists. “I found those pictures so overwhelming, so totally unexpected, so different from the experience of my own world at the time that I felt totally desperate, because I thought I’d never stand a chance of doing well compared to those painters,” Georg Baselitz recalled in an interview at the Gagosian Gallery here. “The dimensions, to us, were just huge: an expression of freedom,” Mr. Baselitz said, speaking through a translator. “Our canvases felt pathetic, tiny.” More than a half-century later, Mr. Baselitz carries that experience with him. Now 76, he is being honored with three London exhibitions: “Farewell Bill,” a tribute to De Kooning is at Gagosian through March 29; “Germany Divided: Baselitz and His Generation,” through Aug. 31 at the British Museum, features more than 40 of Mr. Baselitz’s works on paper; and he has lent some 16th-century prints to the Royal Academy of Arts’s “Renaissance Impressions: Chiaroscuro Woodcuts From the Collections of Georg Baselitz and the Albertina, Vienna,” which runs from March 15 through June 8. For much of his life, Mr. Baselitz has created work around one central theme: the pain of growing up in the ruins of Nazi Germany. -
Group Exhibition
GALERIE THADDAEUS ROPAC GROUP EXHIBITION SEX AND THE BRITISH SALZBURG VILLA KAST 15 Apr 2000 - 03 Jun 2000 SLAP AND TICKLE A perspective on the sexual content of British Art since the 1960s An exhibition under the curatorship of Norman Rosenthal and Max Wigram Great art has often been inspired and driven by Eros. When we talk about eroticism and sex in art, we touch the most original source of artistic inspiration. Important intemationally renowned British artists such as Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud or David Hockney have repeatedly used sex as a leitmotif for their works, indeed their work has even depended on it. Far from being uptight about sex, these artists have explored areas of sexual practice with a graphic opemiess that never shies away from controversy. Besides significant works by Gilbert + George this exhibition brings together the most sensual exhibits of a younger generation of artists, showing fascinating representations of erotic and sexual motifs in art. The explosive development of British art since 1990 owes much to the Vanguard, which paved the way in the 1960s and l970s. Sex has become even more of a major theme in the work of the so-called YBA's (Young British Artists). Sex is nothing to shy away from nor is its fantasy to be disputed because of its frank inclusion in much of contemporary British work. Using the contemporary energy of shock and more traditional ideas of beauty this exhibition contains some extremely explicit and provocative works. It confronts issues of pomography, homosexuality and amorality with a directness that will subsequently make the British and sex appear in a new light. -

Albero folgorato (Thunderstuck Tree), 2012, is the culmination of this series. Cast in bronze from a willow that had been struck by lightning, it both captures a moment in time and stands fixed as a profoundly evocative and timeless monument.

The Bosnian Case: Art, History and Memory
The Bosnian Case: Art, History and Memory Elmedin Žunić ORCID ID: 0000-0003-3694-7098 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Melbourne Faculty of Fine Arts and Music July 2018 Abstract The Bosnian Case: Art, History and Memory concerns the representation of historic and traumatogenic events in art through the specific case of the war in Bosnia 1992-1995. The research investigates an aftermath articulated through the Freudian concept of Nachträglichkeit, rebounding on the nature of representation in the art as always in the space of an "afterness". The ability to represent an originary traumatic scenario has been questioned in the theoretics surrounding this concept. Through The Bosnian Case and its art historical precedents, the research challenges this line of thinking, identifying, including through fieldwork in Bosnia in 2016, the continuation of the war in a war of images. iii Declaration This is to certify that: This dissertation comprises only my original work towards the PhD except where indicated. Due acknowledgement has been made in the text to all other material used. This dissertation is approximately 40,000 words in length, exclusive of figures, references and appendices. Signature: Elmedin Žunić, July 2018 iv Acknowledgements First and foremost, my sincere thanks to my supervisors Dr Bernhard Sachs and Ms Lou Hubbard. I thank them for their guidance and immense patience over the past four years. I also extend my sincere gratitude to Professor Barbara Bolt for her insightful comments and trust. I thank my fellow candidates and staff at VCA for stimulating discussions and support.
