Abstract

"The Posthuman Dada Guide is an impractical handbook for practical living in our posthuman world - all by way of examining the imagined 1916 chess game between Tristan Tzara, the daddy of Dada, and V.I. Lenin, the daddy of communism. This epic game at Zurich's Cafe de la Terrasse - a battle between radical visions of art and ideological revolution - lasted for a century and may still be going on, although communism appears dead and Dada stronger than ever. As the poet faces the future mass murderer over the chessboard, neither realizes that they are playing for the world. Taking the match as metaphor for two poles of twentieth- and twenty-first-century thought, politics, and life, Andrei Codrescu has created his own brilliantly Dadaesque guide to Dada - and to what it can teach us about surviving our ultraconnected present and future. Here dadaists Duchamp, Ball, and von Freytag-Loringhoven and communists Trotsky, Radek, and Zinoviev appear live in company with later incarnations, including William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Gilles Deleuze, and Newt Gingrich. The Posthuman Dada Guide is arranged alphabetically for quick reference and (some) nostalgia for order, with entries such as "eros (women)," "internet(s)," and "war." Throughout, it is written in the belief "that posthumans lining the road to the future (which looks as if it exists, after all, even though Dada is against it) need the solace offered by the primal raw energy of Dada and its inhuman sources.""--Jacket.

Abstract

This provocative study asks why we have held on to vivid images of the Nazis' total control of the visual and performing arts, even though research has shown that many artists and their works thrived under Hitler. To answer this question, Pamela M. Potter investigates how historians since 1945 have written about music, art, architecture, theater, film, and dance in Nazi Germany and how their accounts have been colored by politics of the Cold War, the fall of communism, and the wish to preserve the idea that true art and politics cannot mix. Potter maintains that although the persecution of Jewish artists and other "enemies of the state" was a high priority for the Third Reich, removing them from German cultural life did not eradicate their artistic legacies. Art of Suppression examines the cultural histories of Nazi Germany to help us understand how the circumstances of exile, the Allied occupation, the Cold War, and the complex meanings of modernism have sustained a distorted and problematic characterization of cultural life during the Third Reich.

Abstract

L’exposition 'Rouge. Art et utopie au pays des Soviets' présente un ensemble de plus de 400 œuvres conçues dans un contexte social et politique particulier. Son parcours chronologique commence en 1917 avec la révolution d’Octobre et se termine en 1953, année de la mort de Staline. Elle interroge la manière dont le projet de société communiste a engendré des formes d’art spécifiques. Des années 1920, marquées par un grand nombre de propositions d’avant-garde, aux années 1930 qui voient l’affirmation d’un dogme esthétique, le parcours aborde tous les domaines des arts visuels : peinture, sculpture, architecture, photographie, cinéma, design, arts graphiques avec des œuvres, pour la plupart jamais montrées en France. Les artistes tels que Rodtchenko, Malevitch, Klutsis … ont voulu accompagner par leurs œuvres l’édification du socialisme et contribuer à la transformation du mode de vie des masses. C’est cette histoire, ses tensions, ses élans comme ses revirements que relate l’exposition en posant la question d’une possible politisation des arts. Exposition organisée par la Réunion des musées nationaux - Grand Palais et le Centre Pompidou Musée national d’art moderne.
