  • Author : Susan Hiller
  • Publisher : Black Dog Pub Limited
  • Release : 2012
  • ISBN : 9781907317613
  • Pages : 78 pages

Download or read book Susan Hiller written by Susan Hiller and published by Black Dog Pub Limited. This book was released on 2012 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new series in collaboration with Fondazione Antonio Ratti in Italy, each book focusing on a different artist that has taken part in their Advanced Course in Visual Arts. The books focus on the individual artists, their work, the themes that were addressed on the course and their commentary on the contemporary art world. The starting point of this new book is Hiller's project called The Dream Seminar II, which took place last summer with young artists at the Fondazione Antonio Ratti. This project, based on an early work of hers from 1973, was an investigation into the sources of images and ideas. Participants were asked to create dream notebooks and to share their dreams. The project was conceived as a collaborative work, or proposal for a collective work, based on these experiences. Susan Hiller: The Dream and the Word contains sketches, texts, diagrams and notebook pages focusing on individual dreams and the relationships between dreams, narratives and images. It provides a unique and timely insight into Hiller's approach to thinking and working.

  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2006-05-23
  • ISBN : 1134980388
  • Pages : 597 pages

Download or read book The Myth of Primitivism written by Susan Hiller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-05-23 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the fusion of myth, history and geography which leads to ideas of primitivism, and looks at their construction, interpretation and consumption in Western culture. Contextualized by Susan Hiller's introductions to each section, discussions range from the origins of cultural colonialism to eurocentric ideas of primitive societies, including the use of primitive culture in constructing national identities, and the appropriation of primitivist imagery in modernist art. The result is a controversial critique of art theory, practice and politics, and a major enquiry into the history of primitivism and its implications for contemporary culture.

Book The Provisional Texture of Reality

Download or read book The Provisional Texture of Reality written by Susan Hiller and published by JRP Ringier. This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A former anthropologist, Susan Hiller has, since the late 1970s, forged an interface between critical writing and a visual art practice in which feminist and postcolonial cultural politics are fused with idiosyncratic explorations of science, magic and the continuing lure of psychoanalysis. In a 2001 interview, she stated, "What I think art provides is something like an instigation or an enhanced awareness of how we are all collaboratively and creatively implicated in making a culture." This comprehensive volume compiles previously published essays, interviews, papers, lectures and other ephemera which document Hiller's incisive interventions into contemporary debates on the shifting roles of art and theory. Structured in three sections, the book--part of JRP-Ringier's Positions series--is simultaneously theoretical and deeply personal. Born in Tallahassee, Florida Susan Hiller has lived and worked in London since the early 1970s.

Book Contemporary Art and Anthropology

Download or read book Contemporary Art and Anthropology written by Arnd Schneider and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-02 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Art and Anthropology takes a new and exciting approach to representational practices within contemporary art and anthropology. Traditionally, the anthropology of art has tended to focus on the interpretation of tribal artifacts but has not considered the impact such art could have on its own ways of making and presenting work. The potential for the contemporary art scene to suggest innovative representational practices has been similarly ignored. This book challenges the reluctance that exists within anthropology to pursue alternative strategies of research, creation and exhibition, and argues that contemporary artists and anthropologists have much to learn from each others' practices. The contributors to this pioneering book consider the work of artists such as Susan Hiller, Francesco Clemente and Rimer Cardillo, and in exploring topics such as the possibility of shared representational values, aesthetics and modernity, and tattooing, they suggest productive new directions for practices in both fields.

Book The Deconstructive Impulse

Download or read book The Deconstructive Impulse written by Tom McDonough and published by Prestel Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KEYNOTE: A survey of leading women artists from the late twentieth century examining the crucial feminist contribution to the deconstructivist movement. Exhibition Itinerary: Neuberger Museum of Art Purchase College, State University of New York, Purchase January 15-April 3, 2011 Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University, Durham, North Carolina August 25-December 5, 2011 The practice of deconstructivism, a term describing artwork that examines the imagery of the popular media, was significantly shaped by dozens of important female artists during a critical era in late twentieth-century visual culture. These artists subverted their source material, often by appropriating it, to expose the ways that commercial images express imbalances of power. The mechanisms of power in mainstream art institutions were also subject to these artists' critique. This exhibition catalogue features a diverse group of North American women whose transformative and often provocative work deals with gender, sexual, racial, ethnic, and class-based inequities. Essays by leading critics discuss such topics as the importance of critical theory and sexual politics in the art world of the 1980s; how domesticity is represented in commercial media and the art that addresses it; the importance of psychoanalytic theory as a critical framework; and the sexualization of inanimate objects. AUTHORS: Nancy Princenthal is a New York-based writer and former Senior Editor of Art in America. Tom McDonough is Associate Professor of Philosophy, Interpretation & Culture and Comparative Literature, Binghamton University, State University of New York. Griselda Pollock is Professor of the Social and Critical Histories of Art, University of Leeds. Helaine Posner is chief curator and deputy director for curatorial affairs at the Neuberger Museum of Art. Kristine Stiles is Professor, Art, Art History and Visual Studies, Duke University.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 248 pages

Download or read book The Big Archive written by Sven Spieker and published by MIT Press (MA). This book was released on 2008 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Spieker considers archivally driven art in relation to changing media technologies - the typewriter, the telephone, the telegraph, film. And he connects the archive to a particularly modern visuality, showing that the avant-garde used the archive as something of a laboratory for experimental inquiries into the nature of vision and its relation to time. The Big Archive offers us the first critical monograph on an overarching motif in twentieth-century art."--BOOK JACKET.
