Art Monthly Talk Show 12th August 2013

 

This is the second programme based on content from the July/August issue 368 of Art Monthly.

Patricia Bickers Editor of Art Monthly discusses her feature “Venice Inside Out”  on the real lines that divide insiders from outsiders

At the Venice Biennale, as elsewhere, curators are marshalling ‘outsiders’ and ‘real people’ for the benefit of curious spectacle-seekers. But isn’t such apparent inclusiveness simply a curtain that hides the persistent asymmetry of power?

‘Massimiliano Gioni’s aim of blurring “the line between professional artists and amateurs, outsiders and insiders”, wilfully ignores the real dividing lines between insiders and outsiders demonstrated everywhere in Venice: money, power and the right to self-determination.’

Patricia is joined by Chris McCormack Assistant Editor of Art Monthly as well as Daniella Rose King who reviewed The Alternative Guide to the Universe which was at the Hayward Gallery, London- another exhibition with Outsider Artists.

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

Art Monthly Talk Show 8th July 2013

Art as Commodity as Art

Christopher Townsend discusses the legacy of the Pictures Generation and MTV

The Pictures Generation artists of the early 1980s – Robert Longo, Richard Prince, Cindy Sherman et al – who emerged just as MTV muscled up alongside the young field of video art, set about dissolving the boundaries between art and the techniques of mass culture. But by adopting forms that had been thoroughly co-opted by the engine of commercial production, was the space for critical subjectivity fatally compromised?

‘While Walter Benjamin and Theodor Adorno, inter alia, provide critiques of the desubjectivising effects of modernity through the individual’s separation from both culture and history as far back as the 1840s, I suggest that these effects achieve a particular specificity in the historical time and geographical space of the Pictures Generation and MTV.’

 

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

Gerhard Richter: Panorama at Tate Modern

John Douglas Millar discusses his review of Gerhard Richter: Panorama at Tate Modern .

“The show is vast; there is the work that spars with Marcel Duchamp, the landscapes that investigate German Romanticism, September, 2005, his mournful and considered reaction to the attacks on the World Trade Center, the tender but always questioning domestic portraits of his wife and children. I cannot discuss them all here. In the end, the satisfaction of this show comes from the sense that you are constantly in the presence of an intelligence that is both effervescent and probing. A painterly mind that is able, fascinatingly, to think against itself”.

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

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.

Art Monthly Show on Resonance FM, 13 August 2010

Mark Prince investigates art that uses language, and discusses the ways that narrative manifests itself in contemporary art.

Coline Milliard reports back from  Falmouth Convention organised by Teresa Gleadow with University College Falmouth. Artists, critics and curators gathered to discuss whether a bid to host Manifesta in Cornwall in 2014 was viable, or even worthwhile. Faces around the debating table included writer Lucy Lippard, artist Tacita Dean, Director of the Banff Centre in Canada Kitty Scott, director of Grizedale arts Adam Sutherland and co-curator of Manifesta 8 Bassam El Baroni.

The debate quickly zoned in on the central question: are residencies worthwhile? Is the work produced on residencies likely to benefit the local community – who are, after all, stumping up the bill. Cornwall have been told that they would have to find a cool 3m euros is they want to host Manifesta in 2014.
