Scope and Contents The exhibition, "Et Tous Ils Changent le Monde" ("And All of Them Change the World"), reveals, outside of major works, an ensemble of art moments that have been perceived as essential in the course of modern and contemporary art, the avant garde artists from the beginning of the century and those of today. Marc Dachy, who proposed the theme of the exhibition, writes in his preface that this biennale was to present Dada and its spirit, connections and relationships to contemporary art. Dachy gives a broad overview with reference to specific artists participating in the exhibition and describes their relationship to art movements such as Situationism, Art Brut, Conceptual and the language-art movements of concrete and visual poetry, Fluxus and Neo-Dada. The book is arranged such that each section deals with an individual artist. The section includes a reproductions of the works, a critical essay, an interview or documentation by the artists on his/her works. -- Source of...

Exilee - Temps Morts: Selected Works, 2009

 Item
Identifier: CC-50291-71358
Scope and Contents Murray Media: In her radical exploration of cultural and personal identity, the writer and artist Theresa Hak Kyung Cha sought 'the roots of language before it is born on the tip of the tongue'. Her first book, the highly original postmodern text "Dictee", published in 1982, is considered a classic work of autobiography and is widely read by students internationally. This stunning selection of her uncollected and hitherto unpublished work at last brings together Cha's writings and text-based pieces with images spanning the period between 1976 and 1980. The volume includes two related poem sequences, "Exilee and Temps Morts", major texts incorporating autobiographical elements as well as themes of language, memory, displacement, and alienation - issues that continue to resonate with artists decades after Cha explored them.
