Download or read book Dorothy Iannone written by Dorothy Iannone and published by Siglio Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over five decades, Dorothy Iannone has been making exuberantly sexual and joyfully transgressive image-text works. Karen Rosenberg wrote of her in The New York Times: "High priestess, matriarch, sex goddess: the self-taught American artist Dorothy Iannone has been called all these things and more. Since the early 1960s she has been making paintings, sculptures and artist's books that advocate 'ecstatic unity,' most often achieved through lovemaking." Beginning with the famous "An Icelandic Saga," in which Iannone narrates her journey to Iceland (where she meets Dieter Roth and leaves her husband to live with him), this singular volume traces Iannone's search for "ecstatic unity" from its carnal beginnings in her relationships with Roth and other men into its spiritual incarnation as she becomes a practicing Buddhist. Reproducing several previously unpublished or long-out-of-print works in their entirety (such as Danger in Düsseldorf, The Whip, "An Explosive Interlude"), as well as longer excerpts from rarely-seen works like A Cookbook and Berlin Beauties, this volume gives readers the chance to read her work with sustained attention, and enjoy the sophistication of the stories she tells and the visual-textual embellishments that make them so irresistible. Associated with Fluxus through her close friendships with Emmett Williams, Robert Filliou and Ben Vautier, as well as most well-known for her relationship with Dieter Roth, Dorothy Iannone (born 1933) nevertheless has her own distinct aesthetic style and substantive concerns. Her first major museum show in the U.S. came when she was 75 in 2008 at the New Museum, shortly after her "orgasm box" titled "I Was Thinking of You" was included in the Whitney Biennial in 2006, and she has recently attained more recognition with solo shows at the Camden Arts Centre, Palais de Tokyo and the Berlinischer Galerie.

  • Author : Dorothy Iannone
  • Publisher : JRP Ringier

  • ISBN : 9783037644881
  • Pages : 60 pages

Download or read book Dorothy Iannone written by Dorothy Iannone and published by JRP Ringier. This book was released on 2018 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1960s, Dorothy Iannone has attempted to represent ecstatic love, 'the union of gender, feeling, and pleasure.' Today her oeuvre is widely recognized as one of the most provocative and fruitful bodies of work in recent decades in terms of the liberalization of female sexuality, political and feminist issues.A narrative element fed with personal mythologies, experiences, feelings, and relationships runs through all of her work, unified by her distinctive colourful, explicit, and comic book-like style.Created in 1969, when she was living with Swiss artist Dieter Roth, the Cookbook is a perfect example of how she mixes daily life and an existential approach, culminating in her vision of cooking as an outlet for both eroticism and introspection. A real book of recipes full of visual delights, the Cookbook contains densely decorated pages with patterned designs, packed text, and vibrant colours. Personal sentences are interspersed among the lists of ingredients, revealing the exultations and tribulations of her life between the lines of recipes.Filled with wit and wordplay, associations between aliments and idiosyncratic thoughts -- 'At least one can turn pain to colour' accompanies the recipe for gazpacho; 'Dorothy's spirit is like this: green and yellow', is written next to the ingredients for lentil soup -- the Cookbook constitutes a mundane but essential self-portrait of the artist as a cook and a lover. This beautiful facsimile of the Cookbook is published in collaboration with Air de Paris, Paris.Born in 1933 in Boston, Dorothy Iannone lives and works in Berlin. Her recent exhibitions include: Centre culturel suisse, Paris, 2016; Migros Museum, Zurich; Berlinische Galerie, Berlin (both 2014); and New Museum, New York, 2009.

  • Author : Dirk Dobke
  • Publisher : The Museum of Modern Art
  • Release : 2003
  • ISBN : 9780870700354
  • Pages : 312 pages

Download or read book Roth Time written by Dirk Dobke and published by The Museum of Modern Art. This book was released on 2003 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sculptor, poet, diarist, graphic designer, pioneer artist's book maker, performer, publisher, musician, and, most of all, provocateur, Dieter Roth has long been beloved as an artist's artist. Known for his mistrust of all art institutions and commercial galleries--he once referred to museums as funeral homes--he was also known for his generosity to friends, his collaborative spirit, and for including his family in his art making. Much to the frustration of any gallery that tried to exhibit his work (supposedly none more than once), Roth thumbed his nose at those who valued high purpose and permanence in art. Constantly trying to undo his art education, he would set up systems that discouraged the conventional and the consistent: he drew with both hands at once, preserved the discarded, and reveled in the transitory. Grease stains, mold formations, insect borings, and rotting foodstuffs were just some of the materials used, both out of a fascination with their painterly, textural aspects and for their innate ability to make time visible and play to chance. "More is better," he once said, and more there always was. Roth never stopped working, and he believed that everything could be art, from his sketch pad to the table he sat at, the telephone he talked on, or his friend's kitchen (the kitchen was later sold to a museum). Roth Time: A Dieter Roth Retrospective is published to mark the first major survey exhibition of the artist's work since his death in 1998. Five decades of drawings, graphics, books, paintings, objects, installations, films and video works are represented. The publication offers a window into Roth's creative world, reflecting him and his era. The exhibition is organized by the Schaulager with The Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Museum Ludwig, Cologne.

Book Dorothy Iannone  the Story of Bern   or  Showing Colors

Download or read book Dorothy Iannone the Story of Bern or Showing Colors written by Clement Dirie and published by Jrp Ringier. This book was released on 2020-03-17 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A superb facsimile of Dorothy Ianonne's 1970 comic-book tale of censorship, sexuality and female autonomy As much as Love and Eros have defined my work since its beginnings, so too has censorship, or its shadow, accompanied it," recalls Dorothy Iannone (born 1933) in her introduction to this facsimile publication of her legendary The Story of Bern, [or] Showing Colors. First published by Iannone and her then companion Dieter Roth in 1970, in an edition of 500, the book documents the censorship of Iannone's work The (Ta)Rot Pack (1968-69) and the subsequent removal of all his works by Roth, from a collective exhibition at the Kunsthalle Bern. For his exhibition titled Freunde, Friends, d'Fründe, legendary curator Harald Szeemann invited Karl Gerstner, Roth, Daniel Spoerri and André Thomkins to exhibit artist friends; Roth chose Iannone. The censorship of Iannone, and Roth's protest, eventually led to Harald Szeemann's resignation as the director of the institution. Telling the story of this act of censorship as well as the context of the exhibition in Bern and its iteration in a non-censored version in Düsseldorf, The Story of Bern is emblematic of Iannone's distinctive, explicit and comic-book style, and of her openness about sexuality and the strengthening of female autonomy.

Book excerpt: Publié à l'occasion de l'exposition éponyme au Frac Bretagne, Rennes, de décembre 2013 à mars 2014.00Tout au long d'une oeuvre fondamentalement en mouvement, Dieter Roth, ayant vécu toute sa vie entre plusieurs pays, en particulier l'Allemagne, la Suisse et l'Islande, a mis en place des modes opératoires destinés à générer des formes. Dans les années 1950 et 1960, après une formation en Suisse marquée par l'art concret, il développe un travail géométrique d'inspiration constructiviste et typographique. Parallèlement, on assiste chez lui à la destruction de toute tentative formelle. Dans les années 1960, il réalise sa première " île ", amas de matières informes vouées à se dégrader avec le temps, inaugurant une dynamique de construction-destruction récurrente.

Book Pandemic

  • Author : Dieter Gartelmann
  • Publisher : Xlibris Corporation
  • Release : 2021-04-25
  • ISBN : 1664104836
  • Pages : 480 pages

Download or read book Pandemic written by Dieter Gartelmann and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part One starts with historical facts, President Trump’s response to the pandemic, election rallies spreading the virus, ignoring the public health risk. With the nation so deeply divided over many issues, families discuss the pandemic and the Trump attempt to overturn an election result. How close was civil war? Part Two covers late January to June 2021. It is pure fiction and looks at the problems the new President deals with when a much deadlier than ever strain makes the rounds: anti-lockdown protestors by the hundred thousand, a supreme court undermining public health initiatives, the Senate blocking relief measures. No Vaccines yet. What can a government do facing those obstacles? The book preempts a much more deadly pandemic than even now. The problems? The sense of entitlement and freedoms feeling entitled to infect everyone around them. It’s all about me, me and me. A worldwide entitlement pandemic. This book deals with that in unique ways. It is fiction after all. Could the world use this? Online Book Club (4/4 review) The author did a fantastic job of developing this story. The book was well-researched. The characters used in the book were well-developed. Kirkus Book Review Gartelmann offers a speculative novel that reimagines the Covid-19 pandemic response in the United States. In this alternate-history work, Argus E., an Andamanese scientist in India, is a pandemic monitor who follows all the action of the novel from his AI–enabled supercomputer. His eagle-eyed surveillance allows readers into the hearts and minds of various characters, such as public health authority Michael Thompson and his wife, Dorothy, a daring, dogged Washington Post political columnist, as well as their friends—a carpenter named John Orthallo and his wife, Sue Anne. All are anxious to learn about and comment on the medical crisis gripping the world. The novel’s leading section occurs in 2020, during the Trump presidency, as election protocol is bungled, public health expert recommendations are ignored, and a populace of survivalists is ridiculed as civil divisions split a nation. The second section offers a satisfying resolution and takes place after the inauguration of President Joe Biden when hope was high for positive, proactive change and improved morale. The story takes liberties with real-life history regarding optimistic advancements in pandemic control, and it (lightly) exaggerates the Trump administration’s lax response to the necessity for lockdowns and quarantines. Dorothy is the standout character here; she remains resonant and memorable in her attempts to deliver a true accounting of the pandemic threat to the public. She also provides an accurate portrayal of the weight of a journalist’s role in covering a critical health crisis. In addition, the book intriguingly details how swarms of protesters don’t give the pandemic much credence, choosing to believe the hype stirred up by anti-science naysayers as mutated virus strains spread. Although optimism is hard to come by, Gartelmann inserts swatches of wry humor at unexpected times, which help to leaven the proceedings. The closing chapters offer relief, hope, and a somewhat incredulous version of closure. Many readers will take the author’s melodramatic and somewhat unevenly chronicled predicaments with a grain of salt. However, they will likely enjoy Gartelmann’s creative imagination. A verbose but often entertaining fictionalization of a troubled nation

Download or read book Between Kant and Hegel written by Dieter Henrich and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrifying when first delivered in 1973, legendary in the years since, Dieter Henrich's lectures on German Idealism were the first contact a major German philosopher had made with an American audience since the onset of World War II. They remain one of the most eloquent explanations and interpretations of classical German philosophy and of the way it relates to the concerns of contemporary philosophy. Thanks to the editorial work of David Pacini, the lectures appear here with annotations linking them to editions of the masterworks of German philosophy as they are now available. Henrich describes the movement that led from Kant to Hegel, beginning with an interpretation of the structure and tensions of Kant's system. He locates the Kantian movement and revival of Spinoza, as sketched by F. H. Jacobi, in the intellectual conditions of the time and in the philosophical motivations of modern thought. Providing extensive analysis of the various versions of Fichte's Science of Knowledge, Henrich brings into view a constellation of problems that illuminate the accomplishments of the founders of Romanticism, Novalis and Friedrich Schlegel, and of the poet Hölderlin's original philosophy. He concludes with an interpretation of the basic design of Hegel's system.
