Lucy R. Lippard: Get the Message? A Decade of Art for Social Change (1984)

22 July 2013, dusan

“This book is the third collection of essays I’ve published in a little over a decade. Each of my books has marked the beginning of a specific phase of my life, though not necessarily its end. Changing (1971) was the product of my ‘formalist’ or art-educational period; it consisted primarily of essays written from 1965 to 1968, with a few late additions foreshadowing my next book-Six Years: The Dematerialization of the Art Object.. (1973). From the Center (1976) and Eva Hesse (1976) documented my developing conversion to feminism, which expanded all the possibilities that had seemed to be closing down in the ‘cultural confinement’ of the early 1970s. Get the Message? is the result of a need to integrate the three sometimes contradictory elements of my public (and often private) life-art, feminism, left politics. Owing to publication delays, only two essays from the last two years are included.” (introductory note from the author)

Sensate: A Journal for Experiments in Critical Media Practice (2012-)

18 June 2013, dusan

Sensate is a peer-reviewed, issueless, open-access, media-based journal for the creation, presentation, and critique of innovative projects in the arts, humanities, and sciences. Its mission is to provide a scholarly and artistic forum for experiments in critical media practices that expand academic discourse by taking us beyond the margins of the printed page. Fundamental to this expansion is a re-imagining of what constitutes a work of scholarship or art.

Tomáš Pospiszyl, Eric Rosenzveig (eds.): CAS: What is it? (2013) [English/Czech]

12 April 2013, dusan

Publication documents the activities of the Center for Audio Visual Studies (CAS) at FAMU in Prague, founded in 2005. Featuring 30 works by the CAS students and alumni as well as texts by the teachers Helena Bendová, Martin Blažíček, Miroslav Petříček, Tomáš Pospiszyl, Eric Rosenzveig and Miloš Vojtěchovský

Publikace CAS: Co to je? není výstavním katalogem ani sborníkem z odborné konference. Pohybuje se někde mezi, podobně jako je mezioborové studium v Centru audiovizuálních studií FAMU. Jádrem publikace jsou dokumentace různorodých projektů dnes už třicítky studentů či absolventů CAS, ale i práce jejich učitelů. Do knihy například přispěl filozof Miroslav Petříček, ale je tu i dystopická sci-fi povídka. Najdeme tu analýzu studentských filmů od filmové historičky Heleny Bendové, ale i dokumentace a anotace samotných děl. Ty se pohybují na široké škále od dokumentárních filmů, interaktivních instalací, on-line projektů, živých performancí po street artové intervence do veřejného prostoru. Z pedagogů CAS do knihy dále přispěli Martin Blažíček, Tomáš Pospiszyl, Eric Rosenzveig a Miloš Vojtěchovský.
