I don't Know Where I'm Going But I Want To Be There
The Image in the Age of Visual Obesity

Symposium
17 december 2011
Paradiso Amsterdam

The symposium signals emergent forms of the visual culture that surrounds us and inhabits us. It questions the nature of the so-called culture of attention, and looks at the way it influences and shapes the way we work, live and think today. How does our visual culture work, and what are its hidden dynamics? Which new tools and territories are emerging out it? How do images mediate between us and the world? How do we deal with the ubiquitous presence of images and image versions? What kind of imagery is evolving from actual geopolitical shifts? Which possibilities does the age of configurability have to offer to the image? And how can visual literacy contribute to our understanding of the culture that we live in? To address these questions, the symposium brings together an expert crowd from the fields of design, art, journalism, neurobiology, fashion, literature and film. The symposium will address different functions of the image today: the image as a social agent, as a biological process, as the playground of our imagination, as a cultural criticism, and as a revolutionary power.

Be there! I DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M GOING BUT I WANT TO BE THERE is the third edition of yearly symposia initiated by MOTI. The events signal and orchestrate emergent manifestations of our visual culture, and act as a popular end of year gathering for professionals, students and industry. In 2009, Me You And Everyone Is A Curator explored new criteria for quality in online cultural production with keynote speakers Bruce Sterling, Andrew Keen, and Rick Poynor. Last year, Stefan Sagmeister, Alice Rawsthorn, DJ Spooky, and many more joined forces to map emergent territories of design practice.

Music selection for the night by Mr. Craig Garrett

For THE EVENING BEFORE THE MORNING AFTER, Garcia Torres asked artists and curators to send or select a recipe to be included in the bar's cocktail list for the night: "I propose to present a list of artists cocktails in the bar, and I would love - be honoured-, if you accept this invitation. I am asking you to send me the recipe or name or whatever of a cocktail that you like, or that you have mixed or customised yourself to be included in this menu, and which would either have your name or a title that you wish to put to it. How does this sound? It would be amazing if you accept to participate. Find below an intro text that I wrote for it, and that will be printed in the cocktail menu. Looking very much forward to hear from you. All my best, Mario"

Some of the cocktails to be served on the night might include:

THE EVENING BEFORE THE MORNING AFTER
a small show, or gathering, or event-exhibition, or bar night, or cocktail menu by Mario Garcia Torres

Alcohol (as well as drugs) consumption have been historically, and most probable mistakenly, connected to the creative act. Yet there has been a number of visual artists that have resorted to the old idea of drinking and getting drunk to create their work, both as a medium and as its “content”. The English duo Gilbert & George in Balls: The Evening Before the Morning After - Drinking Sculpture (1972) took blurred pictures of themselves while getting drunk, it is from this work that this night and cocktail menu take its title from. In another of their iconic works Gordon’s Gin Makes Us Drunk (1972), the couple is seen on a video piece indulging in the mentioned spirit. Similarly, the entire Andy Warhol film Drink (1965) is a long take of the filmmaker Emile de Antonio downing a bottle of whiskey. The Act of Drinking Beer with Friends -I wouldn't limit it to only such beverage- is the Highest Form of Ar (1970), declared Tom Morioni as he inaugurated what now is called a social situation type of artwork.

By chance, and several years before, the experience of art through a cocktail was extended after the fact, some would say into the morning after. Those who attended the opening of the French artist Yves Klein at the Galerie Iris Clert in Paris on April 29, 1959 could acknowledge it. For this exhibition the space had been painted with white enamel and stripped of all objects and furniture except for a white, empty cabinet. The almost bare gallery could not be seen from outside as the windows had been painted blue and the door was covered with a heavy curtain of the same colour, with two Republican Guards keeping watch over it. Nevertheless the artist had arranged for a specific cocktail made with Gin, Cointreau and Curacao to be served. To the French artist delight -who had been painting deep blue monochrome paintings made out of a self invented recipe for such pigment- all who enjoyed the drink eventually found their pee stained blue.

Thinking about this and proposing, again, to use the idea of the cocktail as a medium, or more so to use the mixology that such a drink require to provoke a specific aesthetic experience, or... maybe just as a decoy to have a good conversation, I have invited a number of artists friends to present their own cocktail, either one that they like, have customised or that have put together themselves. As an honorary place, the menu will close with the historic blue cocktail.

THE EVENING BEFORE THE MORNING AFTER is a monthly event that takes place at Celeste House in Mexico City. http://celeste.com.mx/

_LIVING AS FORM
An unprecedented international exhibition exploring over 20 years of cultural works that blur the forms of art and everyday life, and emphasize participation, dialogue, and community engagement. The exhibition—curated by Nato Thompson—will take place September 23–October 16, and will provide a broad look at a vast array of socially engaged practices that appear with increasing regularity in fields ranging from theater to activism, and urban planning to visual art. Living as Form will bring together 25 curators, document over 100 artists' projects in a large-scale survey exhibition at the historic Essex Street Market building, and create six new commissions in the surrounding neighborhood. In addition, a dynamic online archive of over 400 socially engaged projects is being developed, along with a book to further an understanding of the breadth and complexity of this field. Curatorial advisors include Caron Atlas, Negar Azimi, Ron Bechet, Claire Bishop, Brett Bloom, Rashida Bumbray, Carolina Caycedo, Ana Paula Cohen, Common Room, Teddy Cruz, Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy, Gridthiya Gaweewong, Hou Hanru, Stephen Hobbs and Marcus Neustetter, Shannon Jackson, Maria Lind, Chus Martínez, Sina Najafi, Marion von Osten, Ted Purves, Raqs Media Collective, Gregory Sholette, Superflex, Christine Tohme, Bik Van der Pol, and Sue Bell Yank

NOTE / INFO

Silence ça pousse ! is a weekly gardening TV show hosted by Stéphane Marie & Noëlle Bréham on National French television channel France 5. It is also broadcasted on TV5 Monde.

source: http://www.france5.fr/silence-ca-pousse/silence-ca-pousse-pas-de-panique.php?id_article=3416

" Silence ça pousse ! - Pas de panique chez Matthieu"

Un jardin flou entre quatre murs, à découvrir depuis la verrière de l’atelier.
Ce matin Stéphane est d’humeur badine, il monte sur un cheval qui n’est pas pour lui, s’amuse d’une éventuelle proposition de travail et s’invente une nouvelle danse de jardinier. Tout cela en se rendant chez Mathieu, qui a une idée précise du jardin qu’il voudrait voir pousser.

D’abord, il faut débarrasser la terrasse avant de la démonter totalement, afin de récupérer la terre arable qui sera bien plus utile pour les plantes.

Le sable en dessous est ratissé, nivelé, avant d’être recouvert d’un voile géotextile maintenu par quelques agrafes. Son rôle est d’empêcher la pousse des mauvaises herbes et de stabiliser le sol sous les dalles qui font leur retour.

Les premiers arbustes arrivent. Ils auront la vie dure, mais ils sont forts pour cela. Les mottes sont posées dans une longue tranchée, qui sera comblée de sable et de terre améliorés de terreau et de fumure.

Arrive un Pittosporum tobira Nana. Des dalles de bois sont jetées au sol, en guise de pas japonais, pour ne pas tasser la terre. Puis, les couvre-sols de bruyère sont placés sous le pin - évocation des Landes -, des Hebe aux fleurs de teintes différentes et des fougères, à l’ombre, sont installées dans des poches de terreau. Les graminées sont plantées, puis entrent les bruyères.

Stéphane enterre des bulbes d’ail dont les têtes viendront chaque année chanter au-dessus du massif. Les bacs font leur entrée, ils sont percés à leur base, des billes de drainage sont versées puis recouvertes de voile géotextile, avant d’être emplis de terreau. Le bambou, le Fatsia japonica et un grand romarin peuvent être plantés.

Des paillis de bois de différentes teintes vont permettre de distinguer les zones. Il est temps de diviser la ciboulette et de planter les bacs dévolus aux aromatiques et aux plantes potagères. Enfin, quelques tuteurs et des traverses de jardin permettent de suspendre une guirlande dont les LED sont déguisées en ampoule.

Le petit jardin de Mathieu n’est plus vide, il s’est structuré, offrant un paysage de verdure, agréable à vivre et à regarder, hiver comme été. Toutes ces plantes de sols pauvres donneront le meilleur d’elles-mêmes, puissent-elles apporter l’inspiration à Mathieu lors de ses longues journées passées dans l’atelier.

Liste des plantes utilisées : Tamarix africana ; Miscanthus sinensis Zebrinus ; anémone japonica Mont Rose ; Polystichum polyblepharum Jade ; mimosa des quatre saisons ; Pennisetum alopecuroides ; Carex comans Frosted Curls ; Dryopteris affinis Cristata the King ; Hebe x La Séduisante ; Erica darleyensis ; Hebe bleu ; Hebe Donna ; Convolvulus cneorum ; Pittosporum tenuifolium Green Elf ; Euphorbia characias ; Griselinia littoralis ; Pinus pinea ; carex ; bambou moyen Phyllostachys aurea ; Pittosporum tobira Nana.

[A VISIT TO] FRANCISCO CAMACHO'S LECTURE AT KADIST FOUNDATION IN PARIS

12 GESTURES
a seminar proposed by Bétonsalon
and Kadist Art Foundation

Francisco Camacho

February, 14 at 7pm, in Kadist-office

In New Mexico, Camacho investigated the reasons why the inhabitants of a village decided to change its name Truth or Consequences in the 50's; with Group Marriage, an on-going project as part of the Amsterdam Spinoza Manifestation (2009), he petitions the Dutch parliament to open civil marriage to groups of citizens who would marry each other.

And more recently Entkustung de l'art, presented at the Casino of Luxembourg, was part of a collaboration with the Luxembourg Military School, local politicians from the Senate and the Minister of Culture and a hip hop band.
Artist Francisco Camacho seeks ways in which his work can exist within official social channels. His projects have been the result of long investigations and collaborations with the local context, inhabitants and lawyers to allow his discourse to be examined by other structures of society.
Therefore, his projects often leave the art world to become significant in another fields and can be viewed as a form of political activism or social discourse. His practice evolves around the possibility of art to bear practical effects on the cultural background and reflects on re-defining common concepts that can lead art to change the way in which we conceive society.

Francisco Camacho was born in 1979 in Bogota. He is currently working on a 'community based project' for the Van Abbe Museum in the neighborhood of Woensel West (Eindhoven).

PRESS RELEASE:

Art of the Loom
32 Tapestries Woven on the Looms of Mark Deweer’s Factory, Otegem, Belgium
6 February - 10 April 2011
Opening Saturday 5 February 2011, 15:00 - 19:00
introduction by Jan Hoet at 16:00

Mark Deweer, founder of both DEWEER gallery and a carpet factory, merged the two passions that defined his life and created ‘Art of the Loom’, a stunning collection of 32 exclusive tapestries that challenge our views on the crossings between contemporary art and design.
The show is much more than a display of the entire collection. It puts the ‘Art of the Loom’ project into perspective. In an experimental exhibition lay-out, the carpets are displayed together with new and rarely shown works of art by several artists who were crucial to the ‘Art of the Loom’ project and to the gallery’s intriguing history.

An exhibition supported by Wildspirit, a Belgian contemporary furniture brand (www.wildspirit.be)

With Stephan Balkenhol, Sergey Bratkov, Tony Cragg, Jan De Cock, Stefaan Dheedene, Jan Fabre, Günther Förg, Ilya & Emilia Kabakov, Thomas Lange, Matthieu Laurette, Josef Felix Müller, Panamarenko, Koen Vanmechelen, Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven, and others.

The illustrated book on Art of the Loom was written by Max Borka and designed by Studio Luc Derycke.

Œuvre / mode d’emploi

Du 7 au 25 Février 2011

Autour des partitions et mode d’emploi réunis par les 2 numéros de la revue véhicule (Arts Plastiques et performance) et du projet TOOL BOX (Entre-Deux) , nous proposerons de questionner ce qui se rend encore visible de l’œuvre alors que sa structure se voit scénarisée.
La partition ne sera plus ici la notation d’un existant mais considérée comme un processus de création à part entière.
Si l’exposition entend présenter différentes partitions ou graphies prescriptives, elle espère rendre active certaines d’entre elles (par le public et /ou les artistes, interprètes).

ACCROCHAGE DE 103 PARTITIONS, PROTOCOLES, MODE - D’EMPLOI (1969-2010)
ACTIVATIONS, INTERPRÉTATIONS, APPROPRIATIONS PAR LES ARTISTES
ACTIVATIONS PERFORMATIVES 1 (vernissage): 8 février à 18h
ACTIVATIONS PERFORMATIVES 2 (Finissage) : 23 février à 18h
CONFÉRENCE : Ghislain Mollet-Viéville, le 9 Février à 18h ; La Sorbonne (Amphi Bachelard)
Le statut de l’œuvre d’art devient de plus en plus tributaire d’’attitudes d’artistes qui donnent la parole au public pour la réalisation ou l’interprétation de leurs créations. En mettant ainsi les esprits en action, ces artistes nous invitent à réfléchir autant sur les caractères qui sont intrinsèques à leurs œuvres, que sur l’observation des données qui nous amènent à nous percevoir nous-mêmes en tant qu’acteurs participant à la fusion de l’art et de la vie.
Activations, légitimité du ou des commanditaires, place de l’auteur et de la signature dans de tels dispositifs.
Alphonse Allais, Marcel Duchamp, Allan Kaprow, George Brecht, Sol LeWitt, Lawrence Weiner, Claude Rutault, Tino Sehgal, Jean-Baptiste Farkas (IKHÉA©SERVICES), Antoine Moreau (Licence Art Libre)...

WORKSHOP TOOL BOX = Il réunira des étudiants de l’Université Paris1- (plasticiens, cinéaste, esthéticiens) autour des œuvres outils de la TOOL BOX, et de certaines partitions publiées dans Véhicule , pour travailler à l’élaboration d’activations, interprétations, rendues visibles

PRESS RELEASE

Spread out the carpet
January 12th – January 29th 2011
Private viewing Wednesday January the 12th from 5pm to 8pm.

Tony Cragg Jan de Cock Jan Fabre Günther Förg Ilya et Emilia Kabakov Matthieu Laurette Panamarenko

Spread out the Carpet brings together the work of eleven international contemporary artists in one exceptional exhibition of carpets. The carpets themselves are stripped of their prosaic function, becoming a new medium between design and contemporary art. Produced only in limited edition, their formats offer numerous possibilities for installation.
Using both traditional and innovative techniques, the preliminary work of the artists is here reforged and transferred onto the carpets, the watercolours of Tony Cragg, or the S.M.A.K poster chosen by Belgian artist Panamarenko for example, being transformed thanks to this unexpected medium. The carpets are invaded by figuration, architecture and geometry and in turn invite us to look at space in a new way upon this everyday object spread out before us.
