art shouldn't be a fixed idea

Sat, 28 May 2011 02:53:00 -0700

"For me art shouldn't be a fixed idea that I have before I start making it. I want it to include all the fragility and doubt that I go through the day with. Sometimes I'll take a walk just to forget whatever good idea I had that day because I like to go into the studio not having any ideas. I want the insecurity of not knowing, like performers feel before a performance. Everything I can remember, and everything I know, I have probably already done, or somebody else has."

— Robert Rauschenberg, American artist, quoted by Michael Kimmelman in an article about Rauschenberg, New York Times, "Arts & Leisure" section 2, August 27, 2000, p. 26.

man of integral awareness

Wed, 22 Sep 2010 07:06:00 -0700

"The artist is the man in any field, scientific or humanistic, who grasps the implications of his actions and of new knowledge in his own time. He is the man of integral awareness."

— Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media, 1964

Is this still true?

a : a spot at which one takes off · b : a starting point : point of departure

Open call for artists · ArtBullshit · Independent project and exhibition in Berlin.

What's it about?

The ambivalence of creativity.

Art has moved to a closed, hermetic, self-sufficient and solipsistic masturbation. The mechanisms, regulations and filtering in the art world and market destroy the true, raw and anarchic power of creativity.

I am looking for artists who are willing to question their routines, creativity, concepts and embroilment in the market. The project will try to recoup the raw and anarchic power of art and creativity.

Conceptual keywords:

Destruction
War
Self-contempt
The Power of Self-destruction
Overcoming
Disrespect
Liberation
Anarchy
The Raw, Brute
Decomposition
Negation
Tedium
Celebration of Destruction
The Gift
Crash

All materials and techniques allowed: painting, drawing, print, sculpture, object, process, collage, montage, web, audio, analog photography, digital photography, film, video, projection... no limits.

Timeframe: 2011-2012

This project is completely independent, no curator, no regulations, no filtering, no institution.

GERMAN TEXT

KunstBullshit · ArtBullshit

Suche Künstler für unabhängiges Projekt und Gruppen-Ausstellung in Berlin.

Um was geht es?

Die Ambivalenz der Kreativität. Kunst ist zu einer autarken, codifizierten und solipsistischen Masturbation einer Elite degeneriert. Die Mechanismen der Kunst an sich und die Mechanismen des Kunstbetriebs, der Kunstvermittlung, Verwaltung und Filterung zerstören die ursprünglich anarchische Kraft der Kreativität. Für das Projekt 'KunstBullshit · ArtBullshit' suche ich Künstler die sich ebenfalls wünschen diese anarchische Kraft wiederzugewinnen, Künstler die bereit sind ihren Egoismus (Künstler-Kult, der Künstler als Überbringer der Wahrheit usw.), ihre eigenen Routines, ihre Verbundenheit mit der Kunst zu überdenken, und ihre Identität und Rolle als Künstler in Frage zu stellen... letztlich zu überwinden...

Konzept der geplanten Ausstellung:

DIE DESTRUKTION
DER KRIEG
DIE SELBSTVERACHTUNG
DIE KRAFT DER SELBSTZERSTÖRUNG
DIE ÜBERWINDUNG
DIE VERACHTUNG
DIE BEFREIUNG
DIE ANARCHIE
DAS ROHE
DIE AUFLÖSUNG
DIE NEGATION
DER ÜBERDRUSS
DAS FEST DER ZERSTÖRUNG
DAS GESCHENK
DER CRASH

Alle Materialien, Medien, Techniken sind erlaubt und erwünscht. Malerei, Zeichnung, Print, Skulptur, Objekt, Prozess, Collage, Montage, Web, Audio, Fotografie, Film, Video, Projektion... keine Beschränkungen. Everybody is welcome.

Zeitfenster: 2011-2012
