  • Modernism 1 Modernism
    Modernism 1 Modernism Modernism, in its broadest definition, is modern thought, character, or practice. More specifically, the term describes the modernist movement, its set of cultural tendencies and array of associated cultural movements, originally arising from wide-scale and far-reaching changes to Western society in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Modernism was a revolt against the conservative values of realism.[2] [3] [4] Arguably the most paradigmatic motive of modernism is the rejection of tradition and its reprise, incorporation, rewriting, recapitulation, revision and parody in new forms.[5] [6] [7] Modernism rejected the lingering certainty of Enlightenment thinking and also rejected the existence of a compassionate, all-powerful Creator God.[8] [9] In general, the term modernism encompasses the activities and output of those who felt the "traditional" forms of art, architecture, literature, religious faith, social organization and daily life were becoming outdated in the new economic, social, and political conditions of an Hans Hofmann, "The Gate", 1959–1960, emerging fully industrialized world. The poet Ezra Pound's 1934 collection: Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. injunction to "Make it new!" was paradigmatic of the movement's Hofmann was renowned not only as an artist but approach towards the obsolete. Another paradigmatic exhortation was also as a teacher of art, and a modernist theorist articulated by philosopher and composer Theodor Adorno, who, in the both in his native Germany and later in the U.S. During the 1930s in New York and California he 1940s, challenged conventional surface coherence and appearance of introduced modernism and modernist theories to [10] harmony typical of the rationality of Enlightenment thinking.

Our founders in 1768 comprised some of the greatest figures of the British Enlightenment, King George III, Reynolds, West and Chambers, supported and advised by a wider circle of thinkers and intellectuals such as Edmund Burke and Samuel Johnson. It is no exaggeration to suggest that their original inten- tions for what the Academy should be are closer to realisation than ever before. They proposed a school, an exhibition and a membership.

  • The AI Interview: Tom Otterness NEW YORK, Sept
    file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Katrin.tomotterness/Desktop...fo%20tom%20otterness%20world%20famous%2027%20September%202006.htm NEWS & FEATURES October 02, 2006 Tom Otterness with his work-in- progress "Untitled" (Immigrant Couple), 2006. "See No Evil" (2002) at the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids, Mich. (main entrance) Tom Otterness The AI Interview: Tom Otterness NEW YORK, Sept. 27, 2006—According to the New York Times, Tom Otterness “may be the world’s best public sculptor.” Certainly he is one of the most visible. He is the only artist ever to have contributed a balloon to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and his large-scale installations in outdoor public locations—from Indianapolis to New York—are enormously popular. Otterness enjoys the rare ability to engage spectators from all walks of life and all levels of art- world sophistication—because while his imagery is cartoon-like, and often highly appealing to children, his work also tends to carry a political punch. He is particularly scathing in his portrayals of those for whom financial wealth is all important. Pieces such as Free Money (1999) and Big, Big Penny (1993) depict this obsession, and others, like his New York subway installation, Life Underground, beneath ArtInfo’s headquarters, show people actually turning "Free Money" (1999) into money. Tom Otterness His next New York gallery show will be at the Marlborough Gallery's 57th Street location in November 2007. Tom, let me begin by asking you about the response to the sculptures you showed in Grand Rapids, Mich. this summer. They were hugely successful.

  • Cummins Opens Nine-Story Office Tower on Four-Acre Site in Downtown Indianapolis
    Contact: Katie Zarich Manager - External Communications Phone: (317) 650-6804 Email: [email protected] January 18, 2017 For Immediate Release Cummins Opens Nine-Story Office Tower on Four-Acre Site in Downtown Indianapolis INDIANAPOLIS, IND. – Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) is building upon its legacy of innovation and community commitment with the addition of a nine-story office tower in downtown Indianapolis. The Company, which is headquartered in Columbus, Ind., is known for its rich history of architectural excellence, and this location is the next chapter in that story. Opening in January 2017 and designed by the New York-based architecture firm Deborah Berke Partners, this dynamic, people-centric work environment for employees and customers will contribute to the city’s social and economic vibrancy. The building provides workspace for Cummins employees in the distribution business and select corporate functions. Downtown Indianapolis allows Cummins to bring the company closer to its distributors and customers through close proximity to the Indianapolis International Airport and the convergence of multiple interstates. “We are incredibly excited about opening our new Distribution Business headquarters in downtown Indianapolis,” said Tom Linebarger, Cummins Chairman and CEO. “Indianapolis is a vibrant and growing city and we are looking forward to being a bigger part of this diverse and thriving community. Cummins was founded in Indiana nearly 100 years ago, and we have grown to have about 10,000 employees in the state. Our new Indianapolis building, with its innovative and collaborative work environment, will help us attract and retain the best and brightest talent, a critical part of fulfilling our mission of powering a more sustainable world.” “As a homegrown Hoosier company, Cummins has a long history of business success and job creation in the Hoosier state,” said Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb.

  • Apexart WORKS of ART in the SHOW Lots of Things Like This Curated by Dave Eggers, April 2 to May 10, 2008
    apexart WORKS OF ART IN THE SHOW Lots of Things Like This curated by Dave Eggers, April 2 to May 10, 2008 BRIEF ORIGIN AND EXPLANATION OF THIS SHOW: Apexart asked Dave to do a show, and Dave thought of this particular kind of art, which combines image, text, and humor. He thought first of the work of David Shrigley, Raymond Pettibon, Maira Kalman and Tucker Nichols. Then Dave called Jesse Nathan, who had interned at McSweeney’s and who knew art and poetry well. So then Nathan started working with Dave to find and compile a group of artworks that met for our particular requirements. For instance, we weren’t looking for art that used text obliquely or as a design element; the text had to be narrative and had to refer in some way to the image. In some cases the text was a comment on the image made after the fact. Sometimes the two were conceived together. Some work approaches single- panel-cartoonhood; some is closer to fine-art text-art. In most cases, even when we knew an artist, like Pettibon, had work that fit the bill, we also had to rule out a lot of stuff that didn’t. So it was an interesting process, and very rewarding, for we found so many great people, from so many disciplines, who shared this desire to draw and write together and were unafraid to make it funny, too. Below is a list of the works in the show, with some biographical information about the artists, and some explanations about how we found their work.
