(UNSW), B.F.A. Hons. I (UNSW) Supervisors: Dr Susan Ballard and AProf Brogan Bunt School of the Arts, English & Media 2019 Newell Harry Unpacking My Collection ABSTRACT Artists’ notebooks, vernacular photographs and personal collections are often viewed as minor footnotes in exhibitions or in respect of their main oeuvres. Yet these personalised fragments are oftentimes more compelling than they at first seem, exposing an entangled web of threads and traces that intimately map the artist’s working processes, life experiences, doubts and digressions that are part and parcel of the creative act. Walter Benjamin took great inspiration from his personal collections, referring to his kaleidoscope of objets trouvés, notebooks, postcards and rare journals as a “magic encyclopedia”, while the anthropologist Michael Taussig, has described the notebook as a “slumbering repository”, itself a kind of ‘collection’ of fragments and threads that is activated like an “awakening bear” when recursively reread. It is this ‘slumbering repository’ of fragmented ‘relics’ that my practice-based Doctorate of Creative Arts explores through recursive engagement with my own collections: a nebulous mass of photographs, notebooks and objects itinerantly accrued across many geographical regions over the past two decades but only now revisited. To ‘unpack’ and revisit this material contrasts with a linear chain of artistic production, where the artist typically starts with an idea or notebook sketch, and, through a series of chronological steps, arrives at a completed work that is generally presented at a remove from the train of processes and external encounters that led to (and informed) its conclusion. It is precisely the inverse of this approach that forms the critical nub of this study, in which such interstitial fragments are seen not as a footnote to artistic production but as the ‘primary act’ of creation. The focus here is on what re-configuring and re-presenting this material might reveal. The project departs from three practical and theoretical questions: How might the processes of unpacking be engaged to recombine the elements of my collection as a method to create new works? How, historically, have other artists challenged singular exhibition practices through recursive, ‘non-linear’ processes, and what forms and/or devices have been employed to display or exhibit these materials? And what new ways of understanding ‘hybrid’ postcolonial narratives might subsequently emerge from this process? In developing a methodological practice more closely associated with improvisation and what I classify as a kind of ‘conceptual bricolage’, this Doctorate of Creative Arts project invokes reflexive, open-ended relationships to prompt new readings and tangents between the elements. Departing from a close examination of my own notebooks, travel journals and photographs, in the context of other artists’ notebooks and collecting practices, the project seeks to discover a new kind of nomadic, non-chronological approach to narrative, story-telling, exhibition-making, form, content and material. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly, I wish to dedicate this thesis to my late grandmother, Elizabeth ‘Lily’ Green (1923-2017), who passed away in the course of my undertaking this degree and had dearly hoped to be there at its completion. Secondly, I want to pay tribute to the late Nigerian curator, Okwui Enwezor (1963-2019), who sadly left us far too young. At Enwezor’s invitation in 2014, I had the honour to contribute to his 56th Venice Biennale, All the World’s Futures (2015). Through Enwezor’s entrustment I had the privilege to produce an installation that would not only intersect with my earliest undertakings of this Doctorate of Creative Arts project, but would also emerge as a defining component within it. Enwezor not only remains a towering figure of inspiration to me–known for his challenging exhibitions that often provided a platform for culturally ‘neglected voices’–but was also an exemplary light among artists and curators of the African diaspora, such as myself. As an African-Australian, in retrospect of his passing, I find myself deeply indebted to his wisdom, courage and ardency of vision. Having said this, I must also give thanks to the institutions that have contributed to my project through invitations to partake in exhibitions, grants, acquisitions and residencies and/or to conduct research, including: The Centre for Contemporary Art, Nanyang Technological University (CCA NTU), Singapore; La Biennale di Venezia, Venice; the Australia Council for the Arts; Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary Academy (TBA 21 Academy), Vienna; Kolumba Museum of the Archdiocese of Cologne, Cologne; Le Fresnoy, Studio National des Arts Contemporain, Tourcoing; Dubrovnik Museum of Modern Art, Croatia; Pernod Ricard Foundation, Atelier Villa Vassilieff, Paris; and my Australian commercial representative, Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery, Sydney. Words of gratitude are also owed to my supervisor, Dr. Su Ballard, whose endearing support, insightful criticality and encouragement to push me through those challenging moments that inevitably arise have been invaluable. Finally, I acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which this thesis was written, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, recognizing their continuing connection to Country, with respect to their Elders past, present, and emerging. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ..................................................................................................................... 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .............................................................................................. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS .................................................................................................. 5 LIST OF FIGURES .......................................................................................................... 7 BIOGRAPHICAL PREFACE ........................................................................................ 17 CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION ............................................................................. 19 1.1 Notes on the Written Style and Composition of the Thesis ............................................. 19 1.2 Unpacking my Collection: Background of the Project and Methodology ...................... 29 1.3 The Living Room of James and Lily Green: A Narrative ............................................... 34 1.4 Filling in the Gaps ................................................................................................................ 37 1.5 Artistic and Curatorial Allies ............................................................................................. 46 CHAPTER TWO: WORDS AND PICTURES .............................................................. 60 2.1 Chapter Overview: Words and Pictures ........................................................................... 60 2:2 An Interview with Jacinta Bělohradský: Known/Unknowns ........................................... 61 2.3 Words and Pictures/Pictures and Words .......................................................................... 81 2.4 Background Projects and Nomadic Methodologies .......................................................... 92 CHAPTER THREE: OBJECTS .................................................................................... 120 3.1 Objects: Collection and Circulation/Interior and Exterior Engagements ................... 130 3.2 Key Artists and Contextualisation ..................................................................................

NEW YORK, November 18, 2009 – Omer Fast: Nostalgia is a new three-part film and video installation that continues Fast's fascination with exploring configurations of fact and fiction through narrative and filmic constructions, intertwining modes of documentary and dramatization. In this exhibition, organized by Tina Kukielski, senior curatorial assistant, the work receives its New York debut at the Whitney Museum of American Art, where it will be seen from December 10, 2009, through February 14, 2010. It is presented as part of the 2008 Bucksbaum Award, conferred on Fast for significant contributions to the visual arts in the United States. Endowed by Whitney Trustee Melva Bucksbaum and her family, the Bucksbaum Award is given every two years to an artist chosen from the Museum’s Biennial exhibition. (The next recipient will be selected from among the artists in the 2010 Whitney Biennial, which opens to the public on February 25.) Nostalgia (2009) begins with a fragment from an interview between the artist and an African refugee seeking asylum in London, during which the artist/interviewer is told how the refugee built a trap for catching a partridge back home in his native Nigeria.

  • Reynier Leyva Novo
    GALLERIA CONTINUA Via del Castello 11, San Gimignano (SI), Italia tel. +390577943134 fax +390577940484 [email protected] www.galleriacontinua.com REYNIER LEYVA NOVO El peso de la muerte Opening: Saturday 13 February 2016, via del Castello 11 and via Arco dei Becci 1, 6pm–12 midnight Until 1 May 2016, Monday–Saturday, 10am–1pm / 2–7pm Galleria Continua is pleased to present the first solo exhibition by Reynier Leyva Novo in Italy. One of the latest generation of Cuban artists, Novo has already had occasion to show his work in important international events and venues such as the Havana Biennial, the Venice Biennale, MARTE Museo de Arte de El Salvador and the Liverpool Biennial. El peso de la muerte is a project specially conceived for Galleria Continua and brings together a series of new works in which investigation and procedure are key elements. Deeply poetic but also alive with questions, Novo’s work is situated in the context of the daily battles to get to the bottom of individual and collective identity. In his artistic practice he moves forward turning his back on the future, penetrating into the most hidden folds of history to offer us a fresh dialogue and a different point of observation. His works are often the result of joint efforts involving historians, cartographers, alchemists, botanists, musicians, designers, translators and military strategists, all engaged in the eternal struggle to gain freedom – individual and collective – , in the attempt to set into motion ideological mechanisms blocked by the rust and sediment that have accumulated over years of immobility and lethargy.

  • Austronesian Paths and Journeys
    AUSTRONESIAN PATHS AND JOURNEYS AUSTRONESIAN PATHS AND JOURNEYS EDITED BY JAMES J. FOX TO THE MEMORY OF MARSHALL D. SAHLINS We would like to dedicate this volume to the memory of Marshall Sahlins who was a brilliantly productive and remarkably insightful ‘Austronesianist’. His Social Stratification in Polynesia was an early, important and provocative comparative study (1958); his Moala: Culture and Nature on a Fijian Island (1962) was a major ethnographic monograph of lasting value; and his Islands of History (1985) was an interpretive analysis that gave global significance to events in the history of the Pacific. His influence was profound on both students and colleagues. We have all learned much from him and his work.

  • The Art of Regeneration: the Establishment and Development of the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology, 1985–2010
    The Art of Regeneration: the establishment and development of the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology, 1985–2010 Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Jane Clayton School of Architecture, University of Liverpool August 2012 iii Abstract The Art of Regeneration: the establishment and development of the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology, 1985-2010 Jane Clayton This thesis is about change. It is about the way that art organisations have increasingly been used in the regeneration of the physical environment and the rejuvenation of local communities, and the impact that this has had on contemporary society. This historical analysis of the development of a young art organisation, the Foundation for Art and Creative Technology (FACT), which has previously not been studied in depth, provides an original contribution to knowledge with regard to art and culture, and more specifically the development of media and community art practices, in Britain. The nature of FACT’s development is assessed in the context of the political, socio- economic and cultural environment of its host city, Liverpool, and the organisation is placed within broader discourses on art practice, cultural policy, and regeneration. The questions that are addressed – of local responsibility, government funding and institutionalisation – are essential to an understanding of the role that publicly funded organisations play within the institutional framework of society, without which the analysis of the influence of the state on our cultural identity cannot be achieved. The research was conducted through the triangulation of qualitative research methods including participant observation, in-depth interviews and original archival research, and the findings have been used to build upon the foundations of the historical analysis and critical examination of existing literature in the fields of regeneration and culture, art and media, and museum theory and practice.

  • Design & Empire [Working Title]
    Design & Empire [working title] 24 – 26 November 2017 Liverpool, various venues Design & Empire [working title] is a weekend of events exploring the power structures embedded within contemporary and historical design, visual art, and consumer culture. Presented by Liverpool Biennial and Liverpool John Moores University and curated by Prem Krishnamurthy, Emily King, and Joasia Krysa, Design & Empire brings together practitioners from the fields of art, design, architecture, and fashion. Framed by guided city tours exploring Liverpool’s architectural past and a cooking event serving a colonial-style Christmas, the weekend presents a series of talks from leading creative voices. These conversations touch upon topics ranging from national identity and the display of museum collections, copying within creative manufacturing, distributed models of property ownership, postcolonial approaches to contemporary fashion, reuse and revaluation of bio-industrial materials, the politics of computer interfaces, and beyond. With Liverpool as both the subject and stage, Design & Empire will collaborate with its citizens in challenging aspects of Liverpool’s imperial legacy whilst reflecting on current practices within design and visual culture. All events are free with booking required via www.biennial.com Delivered in partnership with RIBA North and The Serving Library at Liverpool John Moores University’s Exhibition Research Lab.

Working independently or in various collaborative constellations, they eschewed the individual object in favor of the exhibition environment as a dynamic arena, ever expanding its physical and temporal parameters. For these artists an exhibition can comprise a film, a novel, a shared meal, a social space, a performance or a journey. Their work engages directly with the vicissitudes of everyday life, offering subtle moments of transformation. This catalogue, which accompanies a major exhibition at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, is the first in the U.S. to examine the dynamic interchange among a core group of these artists--Angela Bulloch, Maurizio Cattelan, Liam Gillick, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, Douglas Gordon, Carsten Höller, Pierre Huyghe, Jorge Pardo, Philippe Parreno and Rirkrit Tiravanija--a many-sided conversation that helped shape the cultural landscape of the 1990s and beyond.
