Instructor: Gloria Wallis
Academy of Fine Arts in Venice
HISTORY OF CONTEMPORARY




a) Félix González-Torres



E 'was born in Cuba was born November 26, 1957, and grew up in Puerto Rico. He attended the University of Porto Rico, and the International Center of Photography in New York.
Passionate about teaching, he worked as a visiting artist at a number of prestigious universities and art schools. After his first solo all'Andrea Rosen Gallery in 1990, Gonzalez-Torres's career has soared, to make him one of the stars of the contemporary art scene. It 'died of AIDS in Miami Beach January 9, 1996.
His work has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions in major museums around the world. Retrospective was organized by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York (1995), from the Sprengel Museum in Hannover, Germany (1997), the Serpentine Gallery in London (2000), the FLAG Art Foundation in New York (2009), by WIELS, Fondation Beyeler and the Museum für Moderne Kunst in Frankfurt in 2010-2011.
In 2007, he was the second artist in history which has been given a posthumous exhibition at the U.S. Pavilion at the Venice Biennale.
The only other posthumous U.S. representative was Robert Smithson in 1982.


Influenced by Minimalism, creates installations with minimal objects such as light bulbs, paper, and candy, removed from the public. He calls himself a "process" artist, for interactions with the public modify the structure of its facilities.
Some of his works allow visitors to take away candy from a pile in a corner of the room, with other thin sheets of clear plastic or prints in the series. The piles are supplied not only their content decreases.
In 1991 he exhibited an egg filled with 315 kg of licorice candies in the shape of the projectile, showing its position on the Gulf War, while one of his most famous works, Untitled, 1992, is a billboard that appeared in New York black and white photography of an empty bed, taken after death from AIDS of his partner Ross, who died in 1991.
In an interview, the artist said: "Love gives you a reason to live, but it is also a cause for panic, there is always fear of losing that love .(...) Freud said we stage our fears to decrease. In a sense, this generosity-the refusal to form a static, monolithic sculpture, in favor of a form fragile, unstable-it was a way to put on my fear of losing Ross, who disappeared little by little before my eyes. "

At his homosexuality was given a symbolic value that has stimulated the meaning "Political" in his works.
In fact, Gonzalez Torres often creates works in which the theme is love and the couple: happiness, the risk of losing it, mourning the death of a spouse or life partner.
His works without contours, from which anyone can take part until they disappear, they are often considered a symbol of the loss of boundaries of self which in essence means love, and the decline and loss of self that is instead death.

Untitled (Perfect Lovers) in 1991, is a pair of stopped clocks at the same time, Untitled 1991, are two pillows on an unmade bed with even the sign of a body; Untitled (March 5th) # 1 1991, two mirrors are placed side by side.

In another interview, said:-When people ask me who is my audience, I answer honestly, without getting around, "Ross." My public was Ross. The rest is just people who come to see the work ".

HISTORY OF CONTEMPORARY


a) Ai Weiwei Ai Weiwei



(Born 1957) is a Chinese artist, active also in architecture, curating exhibitions, photography, cinema and cultural and social criticism. He collaborated with Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron as an artistic consultant for the construction of the Beijing National Stadium (known as the Bird's Nest, "bird's nest") for the 2008 Olympics. Investigated in the corruption and abuse of government power in China, and is among the signatories of Charter 08 (see).
It is particularly active in trying to expose an alleged bribery scandal involving the construction of schools that collapsed during the 2008 earthquake in Sichuan. Intensively uses the Internet to communicate with people throughout China, especially with the younger generation.

In October 2010, Sunflower has been installed at the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern in London. The work is composed of a hundred million or so ceramic sunflower seeds scattered on the floor of the exhibition space, each individually hand painted in the city of Jingdezhen, in 1600 by Chinese craftsmen.
The artist wants the work that visitors can walk, roll over, play with sunflower seeds, in order to live more closely the essence of this his commentary on mass consumption, the Chinese industry, hunger, and collective work.
However, since 16 October, the Tate Modern has stopped people from walking on the work, because of possible health hazards that may be caused by the ceramic powder.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnvFoKIecxY&feature = related



For Fairytale, Ai Weiwei has brought 1000 people from all over China in Kassel, the small town in Germany that hosts the famous festival. Participants were chosen through a public announcement that the artist has posted on his blog.
Ai Weiwei has also signed the storage and temporary accommodation arranged for the participants in an old textile factory. Wei invited them to wander the city during the time of exposure, three months. Participants were divided into five groups, each of whom stayed in Kassel for a week. According to Philip Tinari, the primary design object here is not the clothing or bags, but the experiences of the participants, their mood and mood. During the exhibition has been displayed monumental outdoor sculpture entitled Weiwei Template, made of wooden doors and windows of houses of Ming and Qing dynasties (1368-1911), which collapsed after a storm.


* 3. Ai Weiwei, So Sorry, installation, 2009/10



From October 2009 to January 2010, Ai Weiwei has exhibited at the Haus der Kunst So Sorry to Monaco, Germany.
in the major retrospective of the artist today. The title refers to the thousands of apology expressed by governments, industries and financial companies around the world in an effort to compensate for misdeeds and tragedies, but do not often bear the consequences or take responsibility for the evil done, much less repair .
For this exhibition, Ai Weiwei has created an installation on the facade of the Haus der Kunst, made of 9,000 backpacks to children, which bears the words 'He lived happily for seven years in this world' in Chinese characters (provided the sentence of a mother of a child who died in the earthquake in Sichuan in 2008) .
Ai Weiwei has said: 'The idea of \u200b\u200busing backpacks came from my visit to Sichuan after the earthquake of May 2008. During the earthquake, many schools have collapsed and many thousands of young students who lost their lives, and bags and study material were seen scattered all over the world. Then the students' lives have been swallowed into the missing state propaganda, and soon you forget everything. "

b) Do-Ho Suh Do-Ho


Suh was born in Seoul, Korea in 1962. After studying painting at Seoul National University and had served in South Korea, he moved to the United States where he continued his studies at the Rhode Island School of Design and Yale University. He represented Korea at the Venice Biennale in 2001. He currently lives in New York.
A retrospective of his work was presented at the Seattle Art Museum and Seattle Asian Art Museum in 2002. Important exhibitions were held on the artist at the Whitney Museum of American Art (2001), at the Serpentine Gallery, London (2002).

Particularly important for the artist's career passing at the Venice Biennale in 2001, where he was present both as an artist of the Korean pavilion in the international exhibition at the Italian Pavilion of the Giardini.
On that occasion the artist has presented a set of works that helped define the characteristics of his style, very original:


* 1. Do Ho Suh, Some / One, 1998. Platelets
military stainless steel, nickel-plated copper sheets, fiberglass, stainless steel frame. Dimensions variable.


* 2. Floor, 1997-2000.
Figurine in PVC, glass plates, polyurethane resin, dimensions variable (modules of 100 x 100 x 8 cm)


* 3. Who am we? (N), 2000
wallpaper: offset printing 4-color sheets each 61 x 91.4 cm. Dimensions variable.



All these works, very original, hinges on the meaning of the relationship between the individual and social organization that includes making him a microscopic piece, taking away individuality and uniqueness and make it to levels indistinguishable by the group.


In the important interview published in Art: 21

http://www.pbs.org/art21/artists/suh/clip2.html

Do Ho Suh explains the genesis of Some / One: in his early days in Rhode Island, yet the new place and with little knowledge of English, he happens to get acquainted with one of the few Koreans residing in the city, who ran a military surplus store. And 'this particular person to procure the plates and the military machine to print the names on them, from this, accompanied by memories of the recent experience of military service, the idea of \u200b\u200bSome / One, glittering and lavish imperial dress, however, built from sacrifice of countless of anonymous, represented by military plates that make up and flooded the ground suggesting a continuum without end.


Another feature concerns the artist's meditation on the theme of the house while he was in the bed of her room as a student in the United States, stunned by the unusual sounds of the street and the voices are not familiar, the artist found himself think of his home in Korea, and has built these evanescent, suspended from the ceiling, soft yet full of all the details.
Still on art: 21, another interview makes this second aspect of the artist's meditations:

ELEMENTS Iconography and Iconology 2. The 'Vitruvian Man' Iconography and Iconology

a) The Vitruvian Man by Leonardo.



1. Leonardo, The proportions of the human body according to Vitruvius , 1490 ca.
metal point, pen and ink, touches of watercolor on white paper, 344 x245 mm
Venice, Gallerie dell'Accademia

In the third book of De Architectura , the architect and theorist Vitruvius Latin argues that the parts of a building must be well proportioned, with similarity to those of a beautiful human body ("homo figuratus good"), and that an appropriate method for determining whether a man is well-proportioned as follows: standing, outstretched and feet together, the figure should be inscribed in a square, lying on the ground, with arms and legs slightly apart, to be inscribed in a circle with the center of the navel. If the chosen model meets both of these proportions, can be defined homo figuratus well, and the architect can proceed to study its proportions, and then apply them to buildings.
addition to Leonardo, the famous drawing in this beautifully finished and has the character of an illustration designed to be translated into a drawing to print (Pedretti), the theme is occupied numerous artists and architects of the Renaissance. Among them, Fra 'Giocondo da Verona (c 1433 to 1515), who in his edition of Vitruvius, published in Venice in 1511, represents the man in the circle and square in two separate images. The architect, painter and treatises Cesariano Caesar Milan (1475-1573), in his De Lucio Vitruvius (Como 1521), the prototype variants riprduce with Leonardo. In
De harmonia mundi totius (Venice 1525), Francesco Zorzi, monaco Neoplatonic humanist inspiration of the convent of San Francesco della Vigna in Venice, shows the cosmic significance to the figure of Homo circulum. Francesco di Giorgio (1439-1501), sculptor and architect of Siena, in his treatise on architecture (a book owned and annotated by Leonardo), had proposed only man in the circle.
(Wittkower figg.1, 2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14, 15, 20-24, 25-27, 32). The Vitruvian Man
different processing, presented here, however, it becomes clear that the theme for Renaissance humanists blends with other, equally ancient inherited and enriched with Christian significance, such as: macrocosm and microcosm (man seen as a model as reflected in the order of entire cosmos).
Based on classical doctrines dating back to Pythagoras, recorded by Plato in his Timaeus dialogue , and rediscovered in the Renaissance, music, more precisely, the numerical proportions that express the musical intervals are at the basis of the entire universe : regulate the movements of stars such as beauty and health of the human body. Hence the close relationship between Renaissance studies in music, architecture and medical science.

b) The lyre, Leonardo and the Pythagorean doctrines.

Together with the lute, the lyre is the most popular stringed instrument in the Renaissance. It was used for poetic diction, accompanied where sources assert that Leonardo was quite paid.

The practice of many musical artists of the Renaissance, including Verrocchio, Leonardo and Raphael, must be considered in connection with the revival of the Pythagorean doctrines. Pythagoras and his school argued that a number of natural phenomena are translated into numerical relations, and are represented in a mathematical way. In particular, the numbers are translated into musical harmony as a result, the Pythagoreans practiced music as a means of knowledge and purification.
In Milan, Ludovico Sforza, worked the famous theorist Franchino Gaffurio (a possible subject of a famous portrait of Leonardo), that, in his treatises De Harmonia music and Practice Musicorum Instrumentorum (1518), appears in a famous woodcut, while teaching a crowd of students correspondences between musical harmonies and geometric ones. These correspondences between musical harmony and visual harmonies were the subject of intense interest by artists and architects.

nodes, formed by tangled geometry also called "Cordell to damask, appearing in six etchings produced in a Milan at the beginning of 500. Dürer's woodcuts in as many copied them, omitting the inscriptions.
The carvers of the six cuts are not known, but the reference to Leonardo's invention that has never been questioned, since in the nodes Milanese period (or "win" in old Italian), to become the artist a kind of symbol, an emblem of staff which he uses throughout, drawings for jewelry, hairstyles, accessories, and decoration of the Sala delle Asse in the Castello Sforzesco.

If Vasari considered the "nodes" Leonardo's simple entertainment, performed by the artist to demonstrate his virtuosity, for the iconography of the modern six engravings of the objects are all serious and very complex from an iconographic point of view. First, the inscription "Achademia Leonardi Vinci, raising the question of a possible" school, an academy of fine arts before his time, with a strong emphasis on intellectual and mathematical aspects of upbringing, that Leonardo was founded in Milan, under the auspices of Ludovico il Moro. Although there
documentary evidence about this academy Leonardo in Milan which certainly must have had the characters of the last supper friendly than those of a real art school in institutional, recent studies are in favor of its existence.
it anticipates more than half a century, the first academy of art history (established by Giorgio Vasari in Florence in 1562), and follows closely to the humanist philosophical academies, Neoplatonic impression, which flourished in the middle of the '400 , in Florence, the first examples. There is also a seventh
incision, also of circular shape and together with inclusion Achademia Leonardi Vinci, which has a geometric composition but not a figure in profile, in which scholars agree on the "divine androgyne," described by Plato as the highest human type of the species. So this proves the link between the da Vinci Academy in Milan and Platonic thought, which were inspired by the Florentine humanist academies.
Regarding the six "rose" geometric designed by Leonardo, this is a reason that at the time of Islamic derivation was applied to the decoration of musical instruments, especially the lute, the most common stringed instrument of the Renaissance (Headlam Wells, 1981, see bibliography). In these reasons
Islamic geometry survives full of mysticism, Pythagorean-Platonic origin, which aims to implement the image does not contain the qualities and attributes of God (Baltrusaitis 1955, see bibliography).
no coincidence that such "star" geometry appear insistently in centrally planned churches so intensely fascinating that the architects of the Renaissance (Wittkower).
The connection to the world of musical instruments, more precisely with a sharp instrument of Arabic origin as the lute, it is meaningless, because humanism in Milan had an intense impregnation of music, unlike that of Florence, more oriented the visual arts. We
inter alia, that the encounter between Leonardo and Ludovico il Moro was under the sign of music with Leonardo, a talented lyre player (reciter of poems and "suddenly", accompanied by the sound of the instrument), which donates a penny to the Moro or purple that he manufactured "silver in hand, in the form of a horse skull, something strange and new. " According to the neo-Platonic doctrines rediscovered
, music reconciles the human microcosm to the macrocosm, and the secret nature of numerical harmonic relationships can be studied and used therapeutically, or to make beautiful the proportions of a figure or a building.

* b) The Sala delle Asse in the Castello Sforzesco in Milan.

The Leonardo's most famous creation is the Castle the large fresco on the ceiling of the room "of the Axis" (so called by the boards or planks that covered the lower walls). Here, the artist painted a fresco a fake arbor, formed by the flowering branches of sixteen trees whose branches intertwined form the emblem of Leonardo's knot, which contains the center of the heraldic banners of the buyer, Ludovico il Moro, Duke of Milan, and his wife. The branches intertwined a golden cord, in harmonious spirals, the work was actually performed the wedding of Ludovico il Moro Beatrice d'Este, and is presumed to have been started in 1498.

Biennium 2. Mark Wallinger

Accademia di Belle Arti in Venice

CONTEMPORARY ART HISTORY Professor: Gloria Wallis





a) Mark Wallinger


Mark Wallinger was born in 1959, works with painting, sculpture, video, installations, photography, plumbing codes of behavior, values, ideologies, faith, a complex and varied set of elements defining the British identity.
His art is characterized by the ability to detect visual symbols and to manipulate them, mainly in the key of a biting and often tragic irony.
studied, like many of his fellow Young British way of Generation at the Chelsea School of Art and then at Goldsmiths College. Finalist for the Turner Prize in 1995, the artist took part in all the exhibitions, more or less canonical, young British artists, who in the nineties have been able to count on a critical situation and strongly supports market. Of particular relevance

its passage at the Venice Biennale in 2001, as an artist to represent Britain in the national pavilion. A compact and memorable show, which included the following four items:



* 1. Ecce Homo, 1999. Marbled white resin, gold leaf, wire

Ecce Homo, Wallinger's sculpture in marble installed in 1999 on the fourth plinth in Trafalgar Square in London, causing a stir in Venice was the center of the exhibition.
The figure of Christ is identified in the crown of thorns, hands bound, and the stylized cloth that surrounds the sides and the cast is taken from a human body much whatever, and they lack the long hair and beard characteristic of the traditional.

Another important pole of the pavilion was the projection Threshold to the Kingdom (the title contains a pun, literally, "Threshold of the Kingdom", do not know if the Kingdom of Heaven or of Great Britain) is a film sequence, very slow and accompanied by a striking sacred music, the arrival, the movie seamlessly, and projected in a loop, its passengers to London City Airport. "International Arrivals" reads the inscription above the door through which passengers enter.
Their expressions of curiosity and hope, of enchantment, alluding to a passage in one entry into a new life. There is an ironic mystic sense, but also a more emotional and direct human involvement in the unstoppable flow of the characters.


* 2. Threshold to the Kingdom, 2000, video installation


* 3. Angel, 1997, video installation

The protagonist is Blind Faith, Blind Faith, a character played by the same Walliger which makes it look more of a work. This is a blind man with dark glasses and white cane, walking in place, going down the stairs of the subway and repeating in a peremptory tone and monotonous, like those who repeat by heart the verses of the Prologue of John's Gospel. His insistent march, as well as his reads empty and repetitive, is not that steady it on the spot, while others, who observe curiously, they move backwards.

* 4. Ghost, 2001.

It 's a negative print of the famous portrait of the horse Whistlejacket, the generous Englishman George Stubbs (1724-1806).
The artist has added a horn on his forehead, turning nell'unicorno rearing that appears along with the lion on one side of the British royal coat of arms.
A set of symbols that appear as X-rays of different passions peculiar to the British people, horses (and their most famous portraits, inevitable in the great British art collections), the monarchy.

the Venice Biennale in 2005, Wallinger was present with the video Sleeper: effective representation, implemented by the same artist disguised as a bear, the disorientation caused by the architecture of the Neue Nationalgalerie cold Berlin by Mies van der Rohe. Alone, bewildered, the bear moves a few steps, seems to seek out, discouraged crouches against a wall.

* 5. Sleeper, 2004-2005, video

In 2007, Mark Wallinger won the Turner Prize, one of the most prestigious European awards for the visual arts . The Turner Prize is especially important for the recognition of British contemporary painting and is given every year since 1984 to an artist who has over 50 years and working in Britain. Wallinger has been recognized, and the check for 35 million euro that accompanies it, for anti-war installation inspired by a well known activist in London, Brian Haw, who in protest against the foreign policy of the British government for over six years it has been established in Parliament Square. Brian Haw, 56, began in June 2001 to "stick with a megaphone and banners bearing the names and photos of dead children" policy on Iraq. With the passing years, the British and not only started to support it.
Entitled "State Britain", the installation is an exact replica of the 40 meters of the dissenting camp - Haw peace has really made before the British Parliament. The work reproduces exactly every detail of forty feet signs removed, solidarity messages, documents, pictures of victims of bombings and everything set up in front of the seat of Parliament Square.

While videos of Bill Viola need to be viewed from beginning to end, possibly by a spectator sitting on a careful bench in front of the work as a room in a museum, the video artist Pipilotti Rist are watching as a kind of visual and aural carpet, and are often installed by the artist on a background of random internal already furnished (Utrecht, Centraalmuseum, 2001).

The musical component is significant, as already mentioned, the artist was a member from 1988 to 1994 in a rock band (The Reines Prochaines), and collaborates with musician Anders Guggisberg. From the world of rock come many components the initial work of Rist, as is highlighted in the essay included in the history of video art by Federica Tammarazio:

very important step Pipolotti Rest of the passage at the Venice Biennale in 2005, with a video installation presented to the Church of San Stae, which is also closed early due to protests of the faithful for the presence of female nudes:

"Since 1990, the late baroque church of San Stae on the Grand Canal is the space where it is presented the second official Swiss contribution to the Venice Biennale. Pipilotti Rist's video shows scenes of the happy but very little bucolic Eden before the fall and is projected over the entire vault of the nave of the church among the figures of saints, martyrs and cherubs that the 'live' silently. The artist has turned most of the sequences in Minas Gerais in Brazil, and the tropical landscape backdrop of dreamlike images with surreal and generic forms of human bodies surrounded by lush vegetation. To watch the film, visitors can recline on the soft foliage of an oversized branch: kind of beds that allow you to look up from a relaxed position. All this is accompanied by an original sound (also developed by the artist in collaboration with other musicians) released from invisible sources. Pipilotti Rist's paradise, unlike in the Bible, is inhabited by Pepperminta and her sister Amber who dance and play without feeling the apparent lack of Adam. Perhaps it is his absence, avert the threat of guilt. Emerged on the art scene in the mid-'80s, with his works, the artist draws a design life of cheerful, courageous and confident, with its youthful naivety almost utopian. Pipilotti Rist, who consider themselves feminist, always offers a central place to women's roles, physical, ephemeral and eroticism are the main themes of his work. " Alessandra

The show includes classics such as video installation The Veiling
http://www.jamescohan.com/artists/bill-viola/selected-works/, Hall of Whispers, and especially The Greeting. The work, inspired by a painting of the sixteenth century Italian, Pontormo's Visitation, marks an important turning point in career, characterized video from extremely slow to the point of being closer to the world of painting than to the cinema, museums and rich in references.

3. The Crossing, 1996:

These works are technically very different from those of the beginning: they imply the use of actors, special effects, and are turned by a film crew.
remains constant, however, the focus on the human situations and strong, primitive, rich in emotional content.
In 1997 he was given a solo show at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. In
2000 he started to use plasma screens and liquid crystal for his video installations. Viola
accentuates the iconographic references in his works, sometimes using actual quotes from art of the past.
