Abstract

Popular culture in this "biological century" seems to feed on proliferating fears, anxieties, and hopes around the life sciences at a time when such basic concepts as scientific truth, race and gender identity, and the human itself are destabilized in the public eye. Tactical Biopolitics suggests that the political challenges at the intersection of life, science, and art are best addressed through a combination of artistic intervention, critical theorizing, and reflective practices. Transcending disciplinary boundaries, contributions to this volume focus on the political significance of recent advances in the biological sciences and explore the possibility of public participation in scientific discourse, drawing on research and practice in art, biology, critical theory, anthropology, and cultural studies.##fter framing the subject in terms of both biology and art, Tactical Biopolitics discusses such topics as race and genetics (with contributions from leading biologists Richard Lewontin and Richard Levins); feminist bioscience; the politics of scientific expertise; bioart and the public sphere (with an essay by artist Claire Pentecost); activism and public health (with an essay by Treatment Action Group co-founder Mark Harrington); biosecurity after 9/11 (with essays by artists' collective Critical Art Ensemble and anthropologist Paul Rabinow); and human-animal interaction (with a framing essay by cultural theorist Donna Haraway).

Abstract

One of the most influential and internationally renowned artists working today. Best known for his images of devilishly cute and Sometimes menacing animals and children, Nara's work relates not only to Japanese kawaii (cute) popular culture, but also reflects the sensibilities of youth subcultures worldwide with their focus on alienation and rebellion. Yoshitomo Nara assembles twenty years worth of paintings, sculptures, photographs and drawings that map Nara's artistic evolution. The book and exhibition will make connections between Nara's work and Rock and Punk music, which have been both the inspiration and subject of many of his works.

Abstract

Vaak wordt in de agogiek gebruik gemaakt van bedrijfspsychologische modellen, maar voor de agogiek van de kunst blijken die weinig bruikbaar. Ze bieden geen basis voor de filosofische grondslagen waarop zo?n agogiek kan gegrondvest worden. De auteur plaatst de zoektocht naar die grondslagen centraal in dit boek. Kunst heet steevast een subjectieve materie te zijn, maar kunstenaars, critici, docenten en studenten worden wel verondersteld te weten waarover ze spreken. De spanning tussen praktijk en theorie is dan ook een vast gegeven in elke kunstopleiding, en ze doortrekt ook de kunstkritiek, het sociale vertoog en zelfs de politieke vertogen over haar functie en nut. Nochtans communiceert het kunstwerk niet bepaald eenduidig over wat het bevat en waarnaar het wil verwijzen; het lijkt op communicatief niveau zelfs om moeilijkheden te vragen. Volgens de Franse filosoof Jean-François Lyotard is kunst ?quelque chose comme communication... sans communication?. Dat definieert de uitdaging waarop dit boek wil ingaan. Hertmans laat zich bij zijn zoektocht naar grondslagen voor een kunstagogiek inspireren door de belangrijkste denkers van de afgelopen eeuw. Op die manier werpt het boek ook een vaak verrassend licht op wat grote denkers over de kunst te melden hadden

Abstract

Both the exhibition itself and the book on the extensive Bonn retrospective of the Biennale participants (solo show in the German Pavilion 2009) have a number of surprises in store. Above all, the book provides a comprehensive overview - compiled by Liam Gillick himself - of the artist's work, which has accumulated in the past few years to number well in excess of 2,000 works for solo shows and participations. The central motifs of Liam Gillick's works become apparent in the wide-ranging exhibition, but above all in this book. Be it in texts, sculptures, or installations, Liam Gillick's quest has continually been something of a causal chain that investigates concepts such as utopia, parallelism, space, time, production in terms of their differences. In so doing, the artist isn't merely concerned with the conditions for production and the resulting aesthetic approach, but rather he seems - as the successor of a radical modernity - to be still searching for a real place for utopia. Exh.: Kunst- und Ausstellungshalle der BRD, Bonn, 1 April - 8 August 2010.
