Sad, Depressed, People, David Horvitz, New Documents

David Horvitz’s Sad, Depressed, People looks at a set of images circulating within stock photography collections. These photographs, in which actors are photographed holding their heads in their hands, ostensibly depressed, are here shown to contain a bizarre tension between their status as stock images and their supposedly emotional content.

C.I.N.V. U: Tijdschrift over eenzaamheid. Christian van der Kaap. Medium / MER. Paperkunsthalle.

Een kunstwerk in de vorm van een tijdschrift over eenzaamheid, dat is C.I.N.V.U (spreek uit: See I envy you). Het begon met een open uitnodiging aan mensen met de vraag om bij te dragen aan het beeld van eenzaamheid middels teksten, beelden, liedjes en steunbetuigingen. Niet bedoeld als pleidooi voor of tegen eenzaamheid, maar eerder om een idee te krijgen wat eenzaamheid ons kan laten zien. De vorm van het tijdschrift zelf draagt hier ook aan bij. Het laat naast de actualiteit ook onze vergankelijkheid zien; een bij elkaar geniet hoopje papier dat inspeelt op ons intrinsiek verlangen. Echt opmerkelijk wordt het tijdschrift pas door de talloze bijdragen die na het plaatsen van de oproep binnen kwamen. Kunstenaars, fotografen, schrijvers, musici en schoonmakers; bij eenzaamheid leken mensen als vanzelfsprekend te begrijpen waar het om gaat. Sterker nog, de kloof van onbegrip die zo kenmerkend is voor eenzaamheid leek ineens overbrugbaar. Niet eerder was er zo sterk de behoefte om eenzaamheid met iedereen te delen.

Specially published to accompany The Clubhouse, The Little Joe Clubhouse Reader includes contributions from the artists, filmmakers and writers who selected the unique programme of films.

“Warum tötete Theseus den Minotaurus?” – “Weshalb fand er den Ausgang des Labyrinths nur mit Hilfe des Ariadnefadens?” – “Erleichtert ein Mehr an Wissen die Orientierung? Oder wird es schwieriger, wenn wir verstanden haben, wie leicht es ist, sich zu verlaufen?” – “Wie kommt es, dass das Labyrinth uns im Handumdrehen zu Mitspielern macht? Warum kommen wir nicht los von diesem Gewirr aus Linien und Gängen?” – “Ist der Weg ins Zentrums des verwickelten Gängereichs leichter zu finden als der Weg zurück in die Freiheit?”

The Bakery: IDEA IN ACTION, Christine Peters, Richard Siegal, Dieta Sixt (Ed.), Spector Books

American dancer and choreographer Richard Siegal created an artistic network called THE BAKERY in 2005 devoted to interdisciplinary research and production. Along with performing artists, Siegal works with architects, composers, new media experts, designers, curators, and theoreticians. Together they explore new directions in performance related to technology and the other arts. The exploration of these relationships has resulted in interactive installations, such as IF / THEN INSTALLED or LOGIC GATE, which have been shown in various museums and exhibition halls, as well as dance performances and site-specific projects, as the most recent works ©OPIRATES and CIVIC MIMIC exemplify.

THE BAKERY also promotes the If / Then Methodology, Siegal’s choreographic framework, a game-based, syntactical and notational system, as described in the dvd publication IF / THEN DIALOGUES. Since its founding, THE BAKERY has continued to widen its network on an international scale. A cross-disciplinary initiative, it invites others to partake in an ongoing discourse. This book presents contributions by internationally acknowledged artists, writers, and curators who look at performance-making from the points of view of their specific fields.

Contributors: Tim Etchells, Didier Faustino, Barbara Formis, Heiner Goebbels, RoseLee Goldberg, Hubert Machnik, Chantal Pontbriand, Chris Salter, Susan Sgorbati
