MAM show: irritating, fascinating / Turner, Elisa; Boshoff W; Koraichi R., 2000

 Item
Identifier: CC-34478-36175
Scope and Contents

In her review of the exhibition at the Miami Art Museum, Turner writes, "African artists have proved especially adept at using language in beautiful but provocative ways...Willem Hendrik Adriaan Boshoff of South Africa, who condenses handwritten and typewritten text into minuscule characters, such as his 1979 work written while in prison as a conscientious objector to apartheid. Some of his tiny letters are legible, while others are defiantly obscure. In ways both good and bad, they become a metaphor for the range of art in "Global Conceptualism." The work described, the manuscript for "Kykafrikaans," was lent to the exhibition by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Manifesto!, 1978

 Item — Box 331: [Barcode: 31858072490976]
Identifier: CC-23101-23538
Scope and Contents NYT Exhibition Review: Whatever the aesthetic merit of Gene Beery's Pop-Conceptual paintings, on view in this delightful miniretrospective, they are certainly funny. Since the early 60's, Mr. Beery has been making word paintings that look and read like signs you see in shop windows. What the words offer, however, are not commodities but mischievous, self-referential messages, like John Baldessari's but goofier. ''Invent your own art kit!'' blares the exuberant text of a 1968 spoof of Conceptualism called ''Be an Artist Tomorrow.'' ''No brains, technique, skill, imagination, etc. needed. Clever system makes everyone an old master in seconds.''In ''Essences Only,'' made this year, Mr. Beery used a thin brush to write in black with apparently casual haste on a white canvas, ''My life is now too short to spend much time on formal painting art concerns. I am simply recording essences.'' Just so.It is tempting to go on quoting other paintings, but it is worth noting, too, the paradoxical...

Meaning Liam Gillick / Gillick, Liam., 2009

 Item
Identifier: CC-50520-71591
Scope and Contents Amazon.com: Liam Gillick emerged as part of the generation of "Young British Artists" who energized the British art scene in the 1980s and 1990s. He is now one of the most influential (and perplexing) artists in all of contemporary art. Gillick's discursive mode of art practice"”often associated with "relational aesthetics""”complicates object production, embraces the exhibition as medium, and explores the social role and function of art. His body of work includes variations on "discussion platforms" (architectural structures that question or facilitate social interaction), text sculptures, and published texts that reflect on the increasing gap between utopian idealism and the real world. Artist, writer, curator, and provocateur, Gillick explores how an artistic practice can be conducted and represented, while at the same time questioning curatorial practice and the conventions of applied design. This reader coincides with a year-long, multi-venue, mid-career retrospective that...
