Deconstruction


The video starts depicting a study of the human figure, followed by a long series of pictures of an individual in three different circumstances, all composed as collages representing the fragmentation of the identity, all immersed in black, to underline the abstractness.

Li Hui

Li Hui, a conceptual artist born in the (a term which is often used here) post-70’s decade, creates a lot of his work with automobiles and “custom laser array, Laser Night Module, waterjet cutting machines, and laser engraving machines” in his arsenal. He’s even welded two front parts of a car together and turned yet another car into a pink sofa. Check out his video interview on The Creator’s Project.
And yes, I am alive and well in China!

Bill
Viola reworks the story of Christ’s death and resurrection in a modern medium but his pieces are dripping in classical heritage. He plays with Renaissance symbolism, drawing directly from early Renaissance compositions and poses - the original paintings on display may be less visceral but are much more mesmerising.

ENDO

Producer: Sara Tirelli, Valeria Palermo, Alberto Mussolini

ENDO takes the notion of the black-boxing of technology to a conceptual critique and poetic sculptural interpretation. We are offered an object â a black-cased digital recorder, equipped with various sensors â allegedly registering data from its surroundings such as sound, camera image, GPS coordinates, brightness, air pressure, humidity, and temperature on a terabyte hard drive. Once the hard drive is saturated, recording stops, and the data becomes enclosed within the object, transforming it into a monumental static artifact. ENDO is a data devouring device which yields nothing in return, and hence runs contrary to the idea that the recording and storage of data will produce additional information, or insight, or even in a time of data profiling: security. As viewers we are deprived of prying into, let alone understanding, the workings of the device before us. The maxim in data we trust is firmly put to the test. What is really happening with this information, if anything at all, becomes a matter of speculation.

Casey Neistat

The Ethics of Stealing a Bike
between a movie in a movie and a performance with a subtle irony „new mediasmile“, Casey Neistat videos are a kind of conceptual brilliant dilettantism. On this movie he mixes different layer`s of perception into a state of question, what kind of ethic and social behavior are below pictures, words and the common value system.

Gypsy Rose Lee Remembers Burlesque


According to Wikipedia,
Gypsy Rose Lee was born Rose Louise Hovick in Seattle, Washington in 1911, although her mother later shaved three years off both of her daughters' ages. She was initially known by her middle name, Louise…  Louise's singing and dancing talents were insufficient to sustain the act without [her sister] June. Eventually, it became apparent that Louise could make money in burlesque, which earned her legendary status as a classy and witty strip tease artist. Her innovations were an almost casual strip style, compared to the herky-jerky styles of most burlesque strippers (she emphasized the "tease" in "striptease") and she brought a sharp sense of humor into her act as well. She became as famous for her onstage wit as for her strip style, and—changing her stage name to Gypsy Rose Lee—she became one of the biggest stars of Minsky's Burlesque, where she performed for four years.

Jeff Mission (b.1963)

Swim


A live video feedback performance by VJ Jeff Mission. The smooth, colorful waves in this piece were generated by chaining together two pieces of equipment - an Edirol V4 video mixer, and a JVC JX-C7 Video Corrector - in a continuous loop, then making incremental adjustments to the settings on the JX-C7. The result is a digital organism, composed of pure feedback, that can be manipulated at will. The technique used in this piece is one of the core components of his live performances.

Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T): Nine Evenings

Robert Rauschenberg John Cage Deborah Hayes David Tudor Robert Whitman Oyvind Fhalstrom
Robert Rauschenberg
Theater-Festival, Armory Hall, New York: In the 1960s, what would later lead to the founding of the organization Experiments in Art and Technology, was first put into practice on a large scale by ten New York artists as a unique festival for electronic as well as interactive performances and demonstrations.
The idea of collaborating with technicians, not only initiated by Robert Rauschenberg and Billy Klüver but also organized and largely promoted by them, lead to the performances suggested by the festival title: Nine Evenings with performances by John Cage, Lucinda Childs, Merce Cunningham, Öyvind Fahlström, Alex Hay, Deborah Hay, Steve Paxton, Robert Rauschenberg, David Tudor, and Robert Whitman.
Billy Klüver was again the driving force. The main technical element of the performances was the electronic modulation system TEEM, composed of portable, electronic units which functioned without cables by remote control. Cage used this system to activate and deactivate loud speakers that consistently reacted to movement by way of photo-cells.
For not always being technically and artistically successful, these performances exhausted for the first time the full range of the live-aspect of electronics, taking advantage of its artistic potential in all of its diversity. Seen in that light, the «9 Evenings» rank among the milestones of media art, even though today only a few filmed documents bear witness to the event.

Liquid Sky (1982)


by Slava Tsukerman

The eclectic site of New York`s 80`s. A low budged production in tradition of Midnight Movies about the glamoures people around St.Marks Place together in a weird sophistic, "every one is a star", scene. Seems like a visual reminiscence to Klaus Nomi and Ziggi Sturdust playing Doctor Schiwago behind the forbidden door of warhol`s factory just a minute before aids become the main focus for the next years.

The Punking of Paris Hilton (2006)


Hundreds of Paris Hilton albums have been tampered with in the latest stunt by "guerrilla artist" Banksy. Banksy has replaced Hilton's CD with his own remixes and given them titles such as Why am I Famous?, What Have I Done? and What Am I For? He has also changed pictures of her on the CD sleeve to show the US socialite topless and with a dog's head. A spokeswoman for Banksy said he had doctored 500 copies of her debut album Paris in 48 record shops across the UK. She told the BBC News website: "He switched the CDs in store, so he took the old ones out and put his version in."

Nancy Spero

Becoming an Artist


A pioneer of feminist art, Nancy Spero's work since the 1960s is an unapologetic statement against the pervasive abuse of power, Western privilege, and male dominance. Executed with a raw intensity on paper and in ephemeral installations, her work often draws its imagery and subject matter from current and historical events such as the torture of women in Nicaragua, the Holocaust, and the atrocities of the Vietnam War.

Robert Rauschenberg

Elegy for Robert Rauschenberg is an homage to an artist who was my personal hero, and my nemesis, in my student years. He was my hero because of the infallibility of his touch, and the constancy of his ability to invent and re-invent the potency and power of visual art — to push the boundaries of what art could be. He was my nemesis because I saw him as pure genius and his every gesture as perfection — conditions that were not, I thought, possible for others to attain. But my joy and delight in his work continued and my pleasure in talking with him from time to time over the years was enormous.
