Art Monthly Show 10th December 2010

Richard Hylton discusses films by Ruth McClennan’s, Anarcadia and Capital on show at John Hansard Gallery in Southampton.

Sophia Phoca discusses her feature from the December/January issue of Art Monthly entitled Filming the Alternative on independent artist filmmakers. She also raises concerns about the structure of film funding in the UK as arts funding bodies are subject to funding cuts by the new coalition government. As the number of funding pots dwindles, Britain’s more individual, and unique artists will increasingly find that they do not fit the mold. Phoca sights examples of artists who received funding in the past who are unlikely to receive it now.

Art Monthly October 2010

In an age saturated with news footage of international disasters, artists question photojournalism. John Douglas Millar cites artists such as Renzo Martens, Harun Farocki and Aernout Mik, and asks: does art’s subjectivity give it a unique angle on the exploitation of tragedy?

‘Artists who critique how we consume images of atrocity pose questions about how we might step beyond the barrier of “looking”, to an ethical position with regard to images described by the Israeli philosopher and photography theorist Ariella Azoulay as “watching”.’
Andrew Hunt suggests that optimism and humour are intelligent alternatives to the cynicism of postmodern irony

Artists’ use of irony is commonplace, but irony’s reliance on a knowing viewer ensures that it cannot reach beyond a closed audience. Andrew Hunt wonders whether an open humour, as employed by Martin Kippenberger, Christian Jankowski and Wolfgang Tillmans, can reach out instead of in.

‘One answer to Ludwig Seyfarth’s question, “is there an alternative to Postmodern irony?”, is “humour”. While irony is a knowing critical instrument, humour, by contrast, can be described as a system that questions accepted values and patterns of experience.’

The programme is produced by Frederika Whitehead and hosted by Matt Hale who has worked at Art Monthly since 1991.
