Abstract

Die natürliche Genese von Steinen eignet sich besonders als Produktionsparadigma mimetischer Kunst, wie etwa Fels- und Korallenformen oder Marmoräderungen als Ausprägungen der natürlichen Gestaltkräfte zeigen. Künstlerische Materialien vermitteln zwischen Idee und Ausführung und prägen den Werkprozess. Die Formung des Materials legt Bedeutungsebenen des Werkes ebenso frei, wie die spezifische Form eines Materials Möglichkeiten der Bedeutungsgenerierung bietet. Die Nachahmung natürlicher Materialien ist weitaus mehr als ein Materialersatz oder das Herausstellen eigener künstlerischer Fertigkeiten. Die Beiträge in diesem Buch beleuchten die Imitation des Naturmaterials Stein als künstlerisches Vermögen, das Wechselspiel von natürlichen und artifiziellen Materialqualitäten zu gestalten. The natural genesis of stone is particularly suitable as a production paradigm of mimicking art; examples are rock and coral formations, or the veins in marble, that are an expression of the forces of natural creation. Art materials bridge the chasm between idea and execution and impact on the working process; shaping the material reveals levels of meaning in the piece and, likewise, the specific form of the material offers opportunities for generating meaning. Imitating natural materials is much more than a replacement of the material or a demonstration of one's own artistic skills. The contributions in this book take a close look at the imitation of natural stone as artistic potential to express the interplay between natural and artificial material qualities.

Abstract

"Designed to mimic Ryan Gander's annotated copy of the Vintage Classic edition of Italo Calvino's 'If on a winter's night a traveller' (1979), STABS AT ACADEMIA WITH PAINTERS TOOLS is typeset in Set in Stone; a typeface invented by the artist and produced by Adrien Vasquez of John Morgan Studio. The typeface is based on a collection of stones found by the artist's children on a beach near their family home. The artist has reapplied his original annotations using an oversized brush and black calligraphy ink."--Belly band

Abstract

If mediatization has surprisingly revealed the secret life of inert matter and the 'face of things', the flipside of this has been the petrification of living organisms, an invasion of stone bodies in a state of suspended animation. Within a contemporary imaginary pervaded by new forms of animism, the paradigm of death looms large in many areas of artistic experimentation, pushing the modern body towards mineral modes of being which revive ancient myths of flesh-made-stone and the issue of the monument. Scholars in media, visual culture and the arts propose studies of bodies of stone, from actors simulating statues to the transmutation of the filmic body into a fossil; from the real treatment of the cadaver as a mineral living object to the rediscovery of materials such as wax; from the quest for a thermal" equivalence between stone and flesh to the transformation of the biomedical body into a living monument."
