TAIKNAM HAT de novo na estrada!




Fiquei muito surpreso com a repercussão do TH nos EUA e agora aqui em Linz. Esse trabalho começou como um projeto de uma das aulas aqui do interface Culture e, junto com a Ebru e a Shiz consegui fazer um protótipo meio capenga, mas que funciona.

Agora fomos convidados para realizar uma performance no evento de 20 anos da universidade de hagemberg que trata de computação simbólica.

Para esse evento temos que correr e construir mais um chapéu e ainda pensar em alguma história para a performance. Aceito sugestões.

Para que quiser saber mais sobre o TH é só clicar aqui. E aguardem um novo design, agora com inspiração austríaca!

Harri Larunbe



Meu grande amigo Harri Larunbe vai ter sua primeira individual no centro huarte de arte em Navarra - Pais Basco. Não vou falar que é na Espanha senão ele fica bravo. Dia 17 é a abertura, se você estiver por perto passa lá e manda um abraço para o Harri em meu nome.

Abaixo segue um texto dele explicando do que se trata:

"Para la obra expuesta en el Centro Huarte combino varios medios, como el dibujo, la pintura y la escultura con un resultado que se puede entender como instalación con cariz escultórico, pues aunque cada cuadro podría tener sentido por sí mismo, sólo alcanzan su plenitud en el contexto de su conjunto.

Planteo la obra como un recorrido a modo de instalación, con el dibujo y la pintura como eje principal. Pintura colocada de modo poco convencional, formando una suerte de estructuras de carácter escultórico. El espectador no va a ver el cuadro, el cuadro se interpone al espectador. Está de frente a la vez que de espaldas a él.

Los cuadros están pintados por ambas caras con figuras humanas de espaldas. Todos son monocromos, donde las figuras se diluyen con el fondo. Son una serie de fantasmas urbanos caminando o mirando hacia la nada, el vacío. Las figuras vagan por los cuadros mientras que el espectador vaga por esta atmósfera siniestra, contraria, de estructuras inestables; inestables como lo somos todos al fin y al cabo".

Serviço:

Sala Plataforma (planta 1ª).
Harri Larunbe.
Instalación: dibujo, pintura y escultura.
Comisario: Jabier Villarreal
Fechas: 18 de abril - 25 de mayo (2008).

Yokohama triennale

Tai uma oportunidade pra conhecer melhor o que os japas estão produzindo. Impredívl se vocês estiver em Tóquio.



YOKOHAMA TRIENNALE 2008
“TIME CREVASSE”
13 September - 30 November 2008


http://yokohamatriennale.jp


Artistic Director
Tsutomu Mizusawa (Chief Curator, The Museum of Modern Art, Kamakura & Hayama)

Curators
Daniel Birnbaum (Rector of the Städelschule Art Academy and Director of the Portikus,
Frankfurt am Main)
Hu Fang (Artistic Director of the Vitamin Creative Space, Guangzhou)
Akiko Miyake (Program Director, Center for Contemporary Art (CCA) Kitakyushu)
Hans Ulrich Obrist (Co-Director of Exhibitions and Programmes and Director of International Projects, The Serpentine Gallery, London)
Beatrix Ruf (Director, Kunsthalle Zürich)


Yokohama Triennale, Japan’s largest international exhibition of contemporary art, is proud to make further announcements to present Yokohama Triennale 2008, its 3rd exhibition taking place from September 13th to November 30th.

Established in 2001, the Yokohama Triennale has become a forum for new cultural production in the contemporary art scene. Featuring works by some 70 artists from approximately 30 countries and set in the cosmopolitan port city of Yokohama, Japan, this year’s exhibition aims to reaffirm the boundless energy that art affords us. The exhibition will greatly take advantage of Yokohama’s social and geographical characteristics as well as the unique spaces of the venues to display an incredible array of works by various international artists, many of which incorporate performance-like elements that bring out the physicality of their creations. Symposiums, workshops, and various other opportunities for interaction and exchange will be held in conjunction with the exhibition, providing further points of encounter for people, art, and the host city.

Yokohama Triennale 2008 aims to tie in with the Sydney, Shanghai, Gwangju, and Singapore biennales, all of which will be held around the same time as the Yokohama Triennale. Under the banner Art Compass 2008, plans are under way for a worldwide publicity campaign and Grand Tour program encompassing all of these international exhibitions.

Says Director Tsutomu Mizusawa on the theme “Time Crevasse”:

“Art shakes up our everyday perceptions. It gives us glimpses of the ‘abyss’ we normally fail to notice, or perhaps pretend not to notice. It can horrify us, give us courage, console us, or provide us with what we need to face life. Art arises when we confront that abyss squarely and, by waiting attentively at the edges of ‘time crevasses,’ we scrupulously register various forms of mutual differentiation - individual or social differences, differences of nationality, gender, generation, ethnicity, religion, and so on-including the particular circumstances in which we ourselves are currently situated. Art has the power to dispel the temptation to let ourselves fall into such crevasses. It is also an act of bridging those gaps so that people can communicate and interact through them.”

As the Yokohama Triennale 2008 prepares to kick off this autumn, it will offer an opportunity for honest reevaluation and reaffirmation of art’s essential value and power today and in the future. This forum for artistic expression will be maintained not only for the sake of mere novelty to be consumed like information, but rather so that, by confronting and accepting the myriad ‘crevasses’ etched in their histories, people can work toward achieving a better mutual understanding of a deep and far-
reaching kind.

Language Game Video



Semana passada teve em NY uma performance de duas amigas minhas, Hanna e Mika, que são além de muito queridas artistas super talentosas.

A performance foi uma bailarina vestindo uma roupa especial que continha 16 sensores de pressão nos joelhos, cotovelos e pescoço entre outros lugares. Os sensores se comunicavam com o computador via bluetooth, o que acionava alguns robôs/ instrumentos presentes no espaço. Tudo isso iluminado por lanternas nas mão dos expectadores.

Você pode conferir o video aqui.

Se quiser você pode baixar o video en formato quicktime aqui.

Ou ainda ver mais fotos aqui e aqui.

Ahhhh.... o site do projeto é: http://www.massage-me.at/language-game/
