Download or read book AA Bronson written by A. A. Bronson and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first exhibition by AA Bronson, as a solo artist, in the UK. Together with Felix Partz and Jorge Zontal, as part of the acclaimed artists' group General Idea, he has exhibited throughout the world for over thirty years. Felix and Jorge both died of AIDS related illnesses in 1994, and since then Bronson explains '...I have been struggling to find the limits of my own body as an independent organism, as a being outside of General Idea. Over the past five years I have found myself, much like a stroke victim, learning again the limits of my nervous system, how to function without my extended body (no longer three heads, twelve limbs), how to create possibilities from my reduced physicality...' Bronson's exhibition consists of only one work, his portrait Felix, June 5th, 1994 - a vast photograph, taken of Felix a few hours after he died, and one of the most powerful images to have been produced by an artist in recent years.

Download or read book Traffic written by Grant Arnold and published by Douglas & McIntyre. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to look extensively at conceptualism in Canada, published to accompany a touring exhibition. The most transformative art movement of the late 20th century, conceptual art became a global phenomenon long before it was popularized by a new generation of artists and institutions in the early 21st century. Its various manifestations in Canada, however, have remained a limited concern -- a whispered art history circulated among artists and writers primarily in alternative publications and artist-run centres. Traffic: Conceptual Art in Canada 1965-1980 is the first publication and exhibition to track the complex, rigorous and diverse manifestations of conceptual art in the country. Presenting work by more than 90 artists in a beautifully produced package, Traffic examines the particular local and geographic needs and interests enacted by individual artists, collectives and art communities from across the country.
