Art & Abstraction: April 12th
Reading: PDF uploaded to blackboard- This represents the last chapter from a book by Kirk Varnedoe, titled Pictures of Nothing Abstract Art Since Pollock. The book was made to capture a series of Mellon lectures given at the National Gallery of Art in 2003. Acting as head curator of painting and sculpture at MoMA, he also held a professorship at Princeton University. These lectures were devised in response to E.H. Gombrich's highly successful series in 1956, titled, Art and Illusion: A Study in the Psychology of Pictorial Representation. I hope you enjoy!

"At this point I do not want to be outside the structure of power, I do not want to be the opposition, the alternative. Alternative to what: To power? No. I want to have power. It's effective in terms of change. I want to be like a virus that belongs to the institution. All the ideological apparatuses are, in other words, replicating themselves; because that's the way the culture works. So if I function as a virus, an impostor, an infiltrator, I will always replicate myself together with those institutions." -felix gonzalez-torres

Joseph Beuys | Social Sculpture
“Only on condition of a radical widening of definitions will it be possible for art and activities related to art [to] provide evidence that art is now the only evolutionary-revolutionary power. Only art is capable of dismantling the repressive effects of a senile social system that continues to totter along the deathline: to dismantle in order to build ‘A SOCIAL ORGANISM AS A WORK OF ART’… EVERY HUMAN BEING IS AN ARTIST who – from his state of freedom – the position of freedom that he experiences at first-hand – learns to determine the other positions of the TOTAL ART WORK OF THE FUTURE SOCIAL ORDER.”
