Book excerpt: Mac Lyon Exposition " Bernar Venet, rétrospective 1961-2018 " 21 septembre 2018-06 janvier 2019 Commissaire : Thierry Raspail A l'initiative de Thierry Raspail, le mac Lyon présente un ensemble inédit et exceptionnel de plus de 170 oeuvres de Bernar Venet, des premières performances, dessins, diagrammes, peintures, jusqu'aux photographies, oeuvres sonores, films et sculptures, retraçant ainsi 59 années de création (1959-2018). Rétrospective la plus complète jamais réalisée, elle a pour objet d'examiner toutes les étapes qui conduisent, à l'orée des années 1960, un jeune artiste de 20 ans à " souhaiter retirer toute charge d'expression contenue dans l'oeuvre pour la réduire à un fait matériel ", puis à s'approprier l'astrophysique, la physique nucléaire et la logique mathématique, à interrompre cinq ans son activité pour opérer enfin un retour inattendu avec des toiles sur châssis. Suivront les oeuvres sonores, la poésie, puis les Lignes indéterminées, les Accidents, les dispersions, les Combinaisons aléatoires, jusqu'aux lignes indéfinies et courbes des sculptures monumentales en acier Corten. L'oeuvre protéiforme de Bernar Venet reste encore mal connue car elle est souvent exposée partiellement, en " périodes " ou selon une logique de support (les Goudrons, les sculptures en acier). Elle exige aujourd'hui d'être appréhendée dans son intégralité afin d'en cerner l'ampleur, la complexité, la poésie et l'évidence. Il convient d'en retracer le parcours afin de restituer au contexte qui l'a vu naître (l'apparition du happening en 1959, du Nouveau Réalisme, de Fluxus et de l'Ecole de Nice dans les années 1960, " l'invention " de l'art minimal et conceptuel aux Etats- Unis où Bernar Venet s'installe en 1966), la pertinence et le haut degré de création. C'est l'objet de cette rétrospective. Dès son plus jeune âge, Bernar Venet montre des affinités avec l'art. Dans les années 1960, il se rend à New York où, pendant les cinquante années suivantes, il explore peinture, poésie, film, et performance. ? Il entreprend alors une radicalisation sans précédent de l'expérience artistique et de la production esthétique. Découragé par les conventions de l'art français et fasciné par Marcel Duchamp et le formalisme américain, il est reconnu dès les années 1970 comme l'une des figures majeures de l'art conceptuel.

Download or read book The do it yourself artwork written by Anna Dezeuze and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Viewers of contemporary art are often invited to involve themselves actively in artworks, by entering installations, touching objects, performing instructions, or clicking on interactive websites. Why have artists sought to engage spectators in these new forms of participation? In what ways does active participation affect the viewer's experience and the status of the artwork? Spanning a range of practices, including kinetic art, happenings, environments, performance, installations, relational and new media art from the 1950s to the present, this critical anthology sheds light on the history and specificity of artworks that only come to life when you – the viewer - are invited to "do it yourself." Rather than a specialist topic in the history of twentieth- and twenty-first century art, the "do-it-yourself" artwork raises broader issues concerning the role of the viewer in art, the status of the artwork, and the socio-political relations between art and its contexts.

Book excerpt: This fully-illustrated catalogue features 14 color plates as well as newly commissioned texts by author and essayist Siri Hustvedt and art historian Saskia Flower.

This practice, which compelled the artist to destroy previous works and reconstitute their elements into new compositions, resulted in some of the artist's most conceptual and emotionally-charged works.
Download or read book Essays on Art and Language written by Charles Harrison and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2003-09-12 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical and theoretical essays by a long-time participant in the Art & Language movement. These essays by art historian and critic Charles Harrison are based on the premise that making art and talking about art are related enterprises. They are written from the point of view of Art & Language, the artistic movement based in England—and briefly in the United States—with which Harrison has been associated for thirty years. Harrison uses the work of Art & Language as a central case study to discuss developments in art from the 1950s through the 1980s. According to Harrison, the strongest motivation for writing about art is that it brings us closer to that which is other than ourselves. In seeing how a work is done, we learn about its achieved identity: we see, for example, that a drip on a Pollock is integral to its technical character, whereas a drip on a Mondrian would not be. Throughout the book, Harrison uses specific examples to address a range of questions about the history, theory, and making of modern art—questions about the conditions of its making and the nature of its public, about the problems and priorities of criticism, and about the relations between interpretation and judgment.
