Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amid a turn toward nativist politics in the United States, the work of Indian-born, New York-based artist Rina Banerjee (born 1963) seems particularly relevant, reflecting as it does the splintered experience of identity, tradition and culture prevalent in diasporic communities. Banerjee's fanciful sculptures are made from materials sourced throughout the world--in a single work one can find African tribal jewelry, feathers, light bulbs, Murano glass and South Asian antiques. Make Me a Summary of the World, the first in-depth examination of the artist's work, uses a selection of Banerjee's large-scale installations along with her sculptures and paintings to consider the artist's place in both American and global frameworks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses a topic of increasing importance to artists, art historians and scholars of cultural studies, migration studies and international relations: migration as a profoundly transforming force that has remodelled artistic and art institutional practices across the world. It explores contemporary art’s critical engagement with migration and globalisation as a key source for improving our understanding of how these processes transform identities, cultures, institutions and geopolitics. The author explores three interwoven issues of enduring interest: identity and belonging, institutional visibility and recognition of migrant artists, and the interrelations between aesthetics and politics, including the balancing of aesthetics, politics and ethics in representations of forced migration.

Book excerpt: Taking Aim The Business of Being an Artist Today is a practical, affordable resource guide filled with invaluable advice for the emerging artist. The book is specially designed to aid visual artists in furthering their careers through unfiltered information about the business practices and idiosyncrasies of the contemporary art world. It demystifies often daunting and opaque practices through first-hand testimonials, interviews, and commentary from leading artists, curators, gallerists, collectors, critics, art consultants, arts administrators, art fair directors, auction house experts, and other art world luminaries. Published in celebration of the 30th anniversary of Artist in the Marketplace (AIM)--the pioneering career development program at the Bronx Museum of the Arts--Taking AIM The Business of Being an Artist Today mirrors the structure and topics featured in the AIM program's weekly workshops and discussions. Each chapter focuses on the specific perspective of an "art world insider"--from the artist to the public art program director to the blogger. Multiple viewpoints from a range of art professionals provide emerging artists with candid, uncensored information and tools to help them better understand this complex field and develop strategies for building and sustaining successful careers as professional artists. The book ends with an annotated chronology of the past three decades in the contemporary art field and a bibliography of publications, magazine articles, online sources, funding sources, residency programs, and other useful information for emerging artists.

Download or read book Rina Banerjee 2006 2015 written by Wangechi Mutu and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rina Banerjee est une artiste plasticienne née en 1963 à Calcutta. Elle émigre très tôt avec sa famille en Angleterre, puis aux Etats-Unis. Elle y démarre une carrière scientifique avant de se consacrer pleinement à sa vocation créatrice, et son Master of Arts, qu'elle obtient à l'Université de Yale est doublé de distinctions prestigieuses de la part des universités satellites. Rina Banerjee a grandi en milieu urbain, au coeur d'un panel de cultures variées et son travail artistique est nourri de la richesse de son expérience. Son oeuvre, en 3D ou dessinée, est un assemblage de techniques et de médiums aussi bien qu'un assemblage culturel. Ses sculptures mêlent des textiles et textures diverses et deviennent des compositions hybrides, où sont mis en scène des objets aussi disparates que des arêtes de poissons, des plumes, des coquillages, des oeufs d'autruche, des souvenirs ethnographiques ou des vêtements indiens traditionnels et objets de style colonial. Ses dessins aux techniques tout aussi variées, sur papier, ou contrecollé sur bois, interrogent la féminité et révèlent un travail à l'esthétique métissé. L'imaginaire qui imprègne son travail vient se nicher jusque dans les titres de ses oeuvres, des microrécits où s'expriment la fantaisie et la poésie.

Book excerpt: Strange Devices is a book that contains 2 essay's, 15 interviews with artists, and 3 reviews of exhibitions that all lead to thoughts on sculpture as neospatial practice.Why hasn't the definition of Sculpture changed? Almost forty years after Rosalind Krauss wrote Sculpture in the Expanded Field, physical works of art continue to splinter and move further from their entrenched institutionalized categorization. In the last twenty years alone, our understanding of what sculpture is has dramatically shifted. But have the discussions surrounding sculpture evolved in tandem? Sculpture is hardly a singular term for an artwork, especially an artwork that inhabits space or is the space itself. Strange Devices frames contemporary sculpture as neospatial production.Essay's included: Strange Devices and Unintentional VicesInterview's included: Janine Antoni, Rina Banerjee, Matthew Barney, Lowry Burgess, Lenka Clayton, Lewis Colburn, Young Joon Kwak, Athena Lynch, Katie Paterson, Charles Ray, Jon Rubin, Arcangelo Sassolino, Shoplifter, Simon Starling, and Julianne Swartz.

Book excerpt: A tribute to the impressive roster of women artists who have graduated from Yale University Celebrating the 150th anniversary of the first women students at Yale, who came to study at the Yale School of the Fine Arts (now Yale School of Art) when it opened in 1869, and the 50th anniversary of undergraduate coeducation at the University, this volume honors the accomplishments of women artist-graduates of Yale. More than 80 artists--including Rina Banerjee, Janet Fish, Audrey Flack, Eva Hesse, Maya Lin, Howardena Pindell, Sylvia Plimack Mangold, and Mickalene Thomas--are represented with works drawn exclusively from the Yale University Art Gallery. Essays and timelines detail related milestones such as the appointment of art historian Anne Coffin Hanson as the first woman to be hired as a full, tenured professor on campus and Mimi Gardner Gates as the first female director of the Gallery. Amid the rise of feminist movements--from women's suffrage to the #MeToo movement of today--this book asserts the crucial role women have played in pushing creative boundaries at Yale, and in the art world at large.
