Download or read book Permission to Laugh written by Gregory H. Williams and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-06-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Permission to Laugh explores the work of three generations of German artists who, beginning in the 1960s, turned to jokes and wit in an effort to confront complex questions regarding German politics and history. Gregory H. Williams highlights six of them—Martin Kippenberger, Isa Genzken, Rosemarie Trockel, Albert Oehlen, Georg Herold, and Werner Büttner—who came of age in the mid-1970s in the art scenes of West Berlin, Cologne, and Hamburg. Williams argues that each employed a distinctive brand of humor that responded to the period of political apathy that followed a decade of intense political ferment in West Germany. Situating these artists between the politically motivated art of 1960s West Germany and the trends that followed German unification in 1990, Williams describes how they no longer heeded calls for a brighter future, turning to jokes, anecdotes, and linguistic play in their work instead of overt political messages. He reveals that behind these practices is a profound loss of faith in the belief that art has the force to promulgate political change, and humor enabled artists to register this changed perspective while still supporting isolated instances of critical social commentary. Providing a much-needed examination of the development of postmodernism in Germany, Permission to Laugh will appeal to scholars, curators, and critics invested in modern and contemporary German art, as well as fans of these internationally renowned artists.
Download or read book Capital written by Kenneth Goldsmith and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 928 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed artist Kenneth Goldsmith’s thousand-page homage to New York City Here is a kaleidoscopic assemblage and poetic history of New York: an unparalleled and original homage to the city, composed entirely of quotations. Drawn from a huge array of sources—histories, memoirs, newspaper articles, novels, government documents, emails—and organized into interpretive categories that reveal the philosophical architecture of the city, Capital is the ne plus ultra of books on the ultimate megalopolis. It is also a book of experimental literature that transposes Walter Benjamin’s unfinished magnum opus of literary montage on the modern city, The Arcades Project, from nineteenth-century Paris to twentieth-century New York, bringing the streets and its inhabitants to life in categories such as “Sex,” “Central Park,” “Commodity,” “Loneliness,” “Gentrification,” “Advertising,” and “Mapplethorpe.” Capital is a book designed to fascinate and to fail—for can a megalopolis truly ever be captured in words? Can a history, no matter how extensive, ever be comprehensive? Each reading of this book, and of New York, is a unique and impossible project.
Download or read book I hate Paul Klee written by Renate Goldmann and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen years ago, Siegfried Gohr pinpointed the connection between the collected works, which resides in language, in words, sentences and poetry, because "the collection itself which holds a certain distraction within it, embodies the masterpiece as non-identity." This perspective is somewhat outmoded nowadays - inasmuch as the collector has long since hugely extended his range of works with pieces by Pierre Klossowski, Enrico David, Nicole Eisenmann, Cerith Wyan evans or Franz von Bayros - for the simple reason that it is not the collection, that is to say the collector, which cosntitutes the masterpiece, but rather the fact that the movement around the masterpieces needs to be traces.
Download or read book Renaissance Theories of Vision written by Dr Charles H Carman and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How are processes of vision, perception, and sensation conceived in the Renaissance? How are those conceptions made manifest in the arts? The essays in this volume address these and similar questions to establish important theoretical and philosophical bases for artistic production in the Renaissance and beyond. The essays also attend to the views of historically significant writers from the ancient classical period to the eighteenth century, including Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, St Augustine, Ibn Sina (Avicenna), Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen), Ibn Sahl, Marsilio Ficino, Nicholas of Cusa, Leon Battista Alberti, Gian Paolo Lomazzo, Gregorio Comanini, John Davies, Rene Descartes, Samuel van Hoogstraten, and George Berkeley. Contributors carefully scrutinize and illustrate the effect of changing and evolving ideas of intellectual and physical vision on artistic practice in Florence, Rome, Venice, England, Austria, and the Netherlands. The artists whose work and practices are discussed include Fra Angelico, Donatello, Leonardo da Vinci, Filippino Lippi, Giovanni Bellini, Raphael, Parmigianino, Titian, Bronzino, Johannes Gumpp and Rembrandt van Rijn. Taken together, the essays provide the reader with a fresh perspective on the intellectual confluence between art, science, philosophy, and literature across Renaissance Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German-born artist Martin Kippenberger died at an early age. During his lifetime, this sharp-tongued, intellectual agent provocateur exhibited a love of experimentation, occasional Dadaist, and exhibitionist traits included. His collection of aphorisms, 67 Improved Papertigers Not Afraid of Repetition written in English and first published in 1987 by Edition Julie Sylvester, experiments with the principle of repetition and shows the now legendary artist for what he is: a master of fencing.
Download or read book Louise Lawler and Others written by Louise Lawler and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2004 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Louise Lawler subjects the concept of art to critical analysis by re-photographing her own drawings, paintings, and sculptures and incorporating aspects of their immediate surrounding into these "copies." Viewed with a certain detachment, her demystified reproductions also reveal the contextual and situational connotations of her artworks, which recede to a certain extent into the background. Lawler also applies these methods to the work of other artists, photographing their art pieces, particularly as they are mounted in private collections. These contextualizing photographs retain fragments of their surroundings, thus clarifying how the presentation and interpretation of artwork is never free of value judgment or environmental influence. This publication offers the first retrospective overview of the artistic accomplishments of Louise Lawler over the past 20 years. Included are a number of very recent works, some of them created especially for this book.
Download or read book Jutta Koether written by Jutta Koether and published by Dumont. This book was released on 2006 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jutta Koether's translucent color fields, expressive brushstrokes and female subjects--as well as her use of poetry, art history and Mylar--can make her seem like a feminist answer to the Cologne art scene, a counterpart to artists like Martin Kippenberger, Sigmar Polke and Albert Oehlen. In fact, she is a central contemporary painter in her own right, as well as a performance artist, a musician and a critic. She collaborates musically with Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon and Television's Tom Verlaine, contributes regularly to Artforum and the respected German culture magazine Spex, and teaches in Bard College's MFA program--and has recently shown her work at Reema Spaulings Fine Art and Thomas Erben Gallery in New York. Koether's work, which the New York Times has called "vibrant" and "intriguing," was a standout in the 2006 Whitney Biennial. This look back documents the artist's oeuvre from the mid-80s forward, with an extensive selection of images.

Download or read book Unmapping the Renaissance written by Walter D. Mignolo and published by Verlag Fur Moderne Kunst. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The city of Florence is regarded as the birthplace of the Renaissance. The fact that the economic and commercial power structures that developed during this time also brought about the colonization of non-European worlds through linguistic and semiotic hegemony, among other things, is to this day rarely incorporated into the traditional Florentine narrative.Post-colonial theoretical approaches question the role of the Latin alphabet, of printing, of language in the dominance of the renaissance narrative - in particular, these more recent approaches revisit social ideals on whose flip sides are the dispossession, canonization and hierarchizing of culture, memory and space. These ideals and their contrasting opposites unfolded, and continue to unfold, in the afterlife of the renaissance narrative.

Download or read book Aesthetische Paranoia written by Jürgen Klauke and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photo and media artist Jürgen Klauke (*1943) is known for his critical examination of socially standardized gender identities and patterns of behavior. His most recent work describes the paranoid perception as well as the paranoid structure of today's world. He is the first to so strikingly transpose the symptoms of this situation into an aesthetic. Klauke's photographs reflect the fundamental conditions of a fearful existence in scenes that range from the austerely minimalist to the excessive and occasionally surreal. He employs everyday materials as tools to create his scenes, succeeding in shaping a concentrated view of the absurdity of life. This publication documents groups of works the artist produced in past years, such as Ästhetische Paranoia (Aesthetic Paranoia) and Wackelkontakt (Loose Connection), as well as the Schlachtfelder (Battlefields) series, published here for the first time.
