Pioneer

Mensagem enviada pela Nasa na sonda espacial Pioneer, com um diagrama do sistema solar, indicando de onde partiu a nave. O objetivo era comunicar com alienígenas que desconhecem qualquer escrita da Terra, mas o problema é que um povo que nunca usou arco e flecha não sabe o significado da seta, e o homem com o braço levantado pode siginficar olá ou adeus. Assim como a escrita exige um conhecimento do código, a imagem não é um dado natural, mas um código tão elaborado quanto a escrita.

Blank Books

Em memória de Michael Gibbs, que publicou "All or Nothing: an anthology of Blank Books", fizeram uma exposição só com livros em branco, Blank Book Makers. Eu incluiria o livro do Nuno Ramos, "Balada", mostrado na foto abaixo.

Blank Book Makers In Memoriam Michael Gibbs
2nd to 17th June 2012
13h-19h Tuesday-Sunday

 
This exhibition is meant to address the latest developments in artists’ book history. An amazing corpus of new works makes up a most dynamic overview. There are many books dealing with topics such as emptiness, space, or the very substance of pages, and we deemed it necessary to look at the influence of books that have been published in neighbouring fields to that of the artist’s book or bookworks publications, in order for us to better define our investigation. Showing all facets and aspects through the most significant images was an option made difficult by the abundance of publications. We attempted to identify and showcase the current ideas and needs of the artist’s book medium (see below the list of books exhibited).

The exhibition Blank Book Makers is initiated by Izet Sheshivari and Ramaya Tegegne and curated and set up by Izet Sheshivari at Fonderie Kugler, Geneva.

Bertrand Lavier est un artiste pluridisciplinaire. Il investit différentes formes d’expression artistique à travers des techniques variées : installation, peinture, sculpture, photographie, infographie et plus récemment le domaine de la musique et de la lumière. Il s’approprie et transforme des objets de la vie quotidienne issus directement de la culture populaire afin de les détourner en de véritables œuvres d’art. Il place ses créations modifiées dans des lieux d’expositions, de façon à ce que leur statut même s’en trouve remis en question. Ces œuvres quasi déconcertantes amènent le spectateur à s’interroger sur les principes fondamentaux de l’art.

La série des Walt Disney Productions, inaugurée en 1984 et régulièrement exposée depuis, est composée d’agrandissements par Lavier de tableaux abstraits, griffonés par le dessinateur de Mickey pour une aventure du héros éponyme dans un musée d’Art moderne. L’artiste a également réalisé les sculptures imaginées dans cet album. En isolant ces éléments de décor et en les reproduisant à taille réelle, il fait accéder au statut d’objet d'art ce qui n’était que décor et fiction.

«Je me suis aperçu (…) que c’étaient de bons tableaux ! C’est ce qui est formidable ! Ces tableaux qui sortent d’une espèce d’imaginaire moyen remplissent tout à fait leur rôle dans la réalité… »
Bertrand Lavier

Ingo Giezendanner

 "My previous picture book was about a train trip to Baku, this book documents my ferry trip accross the Mediterranean Sea to Alexandria (or Iskandariyah as it is called in Arabic). I was invited to exhbit my work and conduct a workshop organized by the artist-run Alexandria Contemporary Arts Forum (ACAF). This paperback is a selection of the many drawings that transpired on this amazing journey.

  Not all my drawings are of a scene that catches my eye. Often it starts with coming across a really comfortable spot where I can sit undisturbed for some time amongst the hustle and rumble of a busy city. This, for me, can be quite meditative. Later, I scan the drawings to upload onto my website and other applications.

  This time round, I also experimented with the drawings and hope to present this book as my personal development or work in progress. I wish to share the overwhelming experience of drawing the ocean and have tried to capture the simultaneous static second and fluid element of the water by flushing the drawings through a scanner and allowing them to distort as they wish to flow, much like the city, much like life itself."

Ingo Giezendanner alias GRRRR, July 2011 Since 1998, Ingo Giezendanner documents his surroundings with pen on paper. He produces zines, murals, books, exhibitions, video clips and maintains a website (GRRRR.net) to create his own world
