I am very much interested in images that can be decoded on several layers with different results. For instance I took a series of pictures of objects that have been used in real murder cases to kill people. So a knife in this series can be seen s…

I’ve been thinking for a while about Lobby Art – art in museum lobbies, that is. Not all museums feature Lobby Art; for some, such as the Guggenheim, the Philadelphia Museum of Art or the Art Institute of Chicago, the architecture suffices to create an ambiance for the entry areas, although certain artists, notably Jenny [...]

This issue of Manifesta Journal takes its title from “The Author as Producer,” a lecture delivered by Walter Benjamin in 1934 in which he argues that the presumed autonomy of the creator is in fact always oriented toward a deliberate choice or, as he calls it, a “tendency”: a political, social, and ethical position.

The Focus Project is a yearly archive of the world’s most compelling photographs capturing what is most important in our lives.

The first theme to launch this collaborative project is LOVE. It is the deepest emotion we know, and invite you to share …

JUAN MUÑOZ’S WORKS FOR RADIO

From 1992 to 2001, Juan Muñoz carried out a series of works using materials that we would not expect to find in the hands of a sculptor: the voice, music, sound. Muñoz conceived and made these works specifically for rad…

Didier Marcel borrows from reality and sculpts from life. Whether the imprint is taken from the living or the mineral, and whether the model itself is artificial, the choice hinges systematically on a highly personal rapport with the banal: with everything that’s ordinary and invisible, everything that merges with the landscape.

OK, maybe you won’t see that this as a win-win or lose-lose choice. It all depends on your outlook. But you can watch William Kentridge on WHYY (12) at 5 p.m. (i.e. in 40 mins.) Or you can listen to Murray Dubin and Dan Biddle interviewed by Guy Raz on NPR’s All Things Considered at [...]

There are many reasons to teach with the art of William Kentridge, and as we get closer to the premiere of Art21′s new film, William Kentridge: Anything Is Possible, airing on PBS October 21st, I thought I might take a moment to highlight why we should consider his diverse work and how it may fit [...]

This month, Christopher Williams talks to Willem de Rooij about conceptualism’s relationship to the image and how referentiality has become a mainstream convention. Following Williams’ major solo show at Kunsthalle Baden-Baden and De Rooij’s current exhibition at Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie, they discuss their respective practices, previous collaborations and why the adoption of photography was once a political choice.

The individual choice, how to reformulate memory and the strategies about how to forget will be common denominators for the curatorial concept and the invited artworks to this year’s October Salon.

Birth Rites Collection is happy to announce its online vote for a new piece to enter the collection. The public is invited to visit our website and pick the best work. http://birthritescollection.org.uk/<br />
<br />
The Birth Rites Collection (BRC) is the first and only collection of contemporary artwork dedicated to the subject of childbirth. The collection aims to redefine visual language in contemporary art around the subject of birth, making women the protagonists, with more choice and a greater understanding of the process.<br />
<br />
The collection is on show between Salford University Midwifery Department in Greater Manchester and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in London.<img src="http://rhizome.org/syndicate/nothing.gif?f=announce" border="0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rhizome-announce/~4/d2F34F7PrRk" height="1" width="1"/>

It’s election day tomorrow where we get the chance to put an X in a box to choose between the Conservative/Labour duopoly that’s been in control for all our lives (with apologies to any readers who were over 18 years old about 60 years ago). As usual w…
