In Search of a New(er) Digital Literature
2009-01-21 00:22:00
In Search of a New(er) Digital Literature curated by Alan Bigelow Given its ongoing (and often surprising) metamorphoses on the web, it is dangerous to lay claim to a universal identity for digital literature, where exceptions to the rule often signal the coming of new forms, new iterations. But as a result of recent technologies, and digital literature's explosive re-invention of itself on the web, some aesthetic patterns may be emerging on the contemporary scene that offer hope for a form still struggling for its public identity. terminal- in search of a new(er) digital literatureMedaille College News - Blog Archive - Dr. Bigelow Curates Digital Literature Exhibitioin

War Problems

John KørnerWar Problems Victoria Miro is pleased to announce the gallery?s second exhibition by Danish artist John Kørner. War Problems is a new series of sixteen large-scale works, each representing a Danish solider killed in Afghanistan and each bearing a single name ? Anders, Mikkel, Thomas, Sonny.Recently on view as part of the 2008 U-Turn Copenhagen Quadriennial, the paintings on exhibition are a significant departure for the artist, who was drawn to the subject matter after reading local news reports: ?I had lots of questions about what Denmark was doing in the War on Terror in Afghanistan and why a country like ours was involved when we never used to take part in wars.Victoria Miro

art KARLSRUHE 2009
2009-01-20 21:55:00
At art KARLSRUHE 2009 (5-8 March) the Hamburg artist Friedrich Einhoff will receive the Hans-Platschek Prize for Art and Writing. He has been selected by the respected art historian Werner Hofmann.The juror will be paying tribute to the artist and presenting him with the award in Foyer Ost at 5 p.m. on 5 March. Initiated by the Hans-Platschek Trust, the prize is being awarded for the second time. Einhoff was born in Magdeburg in 1936. He studied under Alfred Mahlau and Willem Grimm at the University of Fine Arts in Hamburg from 1957 to 1962. Human and animal forms are the dominant features of his fascinating paintings, mostly in acrylic paints, charcoal, and sand. The men and women often frozen in place in muted colourfulness before an austere backdrop wear enigmatic facial expressions. The communication with other living creatures also defies any tangible interpretation: familiar yet alien.art KARLSRUHE - Internationale Messe fur Klassische Moderne und Gegenwartskunst

Diana Actaeon - Der verbotene Blick auf die Nacktheit
2009-01-20 21:42:00
DIANA AND ACTAEONThe forbidden glimpse of the naked bodyAround a core of works of art that explicitly relate to the myth of Artemis/Diana and Aktaion/Actaeon as told by Ovid, this exhibition brings together over 300 works in a scope to be shown as such only in Düsseldorf. On its agenda is that view afforded at all periods of art, upon ?The forbidden glimpse of the naked body?. Diana?s fate is also that of Venus, Susanna, Bathsheba, Nyssia, Phryne, Potiphar?s Wife, Baubo, Sheela-na-Gig and a host of unnamed nudes in modes classical and explicit who pass before the visitor?s eye.They do so now in works by more than 200 artists, as paintings, sculptures,drawings, prints, photographs and videos from German and international private and public collections. Together they provide a unique account of a broad field interesting from both an art-historical and cultural-historical angle ? of chastity and desire, of seeing and being seen, voyeurism and exhibitionism.museum kunst palast - Diana ...

Nameless Science

"Nameless Science Curated by Henk SlagerDecember 10, 2008 - January 31, 2009With projects by Ricardo Basbaum (Brazil), Jan Kaila (Finland), Irene Kopelman (The Netherlands), Matts Leiderstam (Sweden), Ronan McCrea (Ireland), Sarah Pierce (UK/USA), and Morten Torgersrud (Norway)." The debate on artistic research emerging worldwide in the field of visual art for some five years now tends to focus on what artistic research could be or should be. As a consequence of that debate, artistic research as a yet undefined sanctuary for creative experiment and knowledge production is prone to the danger of being absorbed by an intellectually crippling academic discourse on how the specificity of research-based art as a novel modus operandi could be defined and framed. That tendency is comparable to what happened in the 1990s with ...

Judgment and Contemporary Art Criticism
2009-01-20 17:13:00
"Judgment and Contemporary Art Criticism , is a two-day forum on the state of contemporary art criticism co-organized by Artspeak and Fillip. Through a keynote address by Tirdad Zolghadr and two panels made up of international critics Diedrich Diederichsen, Jeff Derksen, Sylvie Fortin, Maria Fusco, Tom Morton and William Wood, the forum seeks to address what is at stake in the shifting value of judgment within contemporary art writing. A renewed interest in the efficacy and function of art criticism has arisen in the last decade, embedded in art market speculation, global conflict and recent economic crises. This forum will engage with the key issues produced from these conversations, specifically returning to the role of valuation in contemporary art writing."ARTSPEAK: Events - Judgment and Contemporary Art Criticism: Forum
