White Mythologies and Epistemic Refusals: Teaching Artistic Research Through Institutional Conflict
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Teaching Artistic Research: Conversations Across Cultures. - Berlin : De Gruyter. - 3110662396
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This essay outlines a heuristic model of a teaching practice that attempts to operate within the fundamentally contested field of artistic research by exploring the terms and processes of conflicted institutional practices and rhetorics. Taking account of the different ways in which artistic research has become a highly visible moment of institutional conflict, this paper outlines an approach to teaching early-stage researchers through active processes of knowledge conflict. The model outlined here proposes a group process by which fault-lines of conflict and disagreement may be thematized and operationalized within a teaching praxis. The provisional model being proposed is based upon concrete experiment and application over the last decade in a range of formal and informal educational settings.

Human Population : Västerås 2020
- 2020
-
Konstnärligt arbete (refereegranskat)abstract
- I Human Population tar konstnären med en grupp deltagare på en guidad tur genom stadscentrum. Framför olika byggnader och på gator breder hon ut en stor genomskinlig byggplast på marken.Ett frottage (en gnuggbild) med pastellkrita växer fram och synliggör markens struktur. Samtidigt berättar Torell om tillgänglighet som en mänsklig rättighet. Om rösträtt och inkludering. Om asfalt mot vågiga betongplattor - inte för att de är dekorativa, utan för riktningarna de skapar för den som har nedsatt syn. (Katrin Ingelstedt/Västerås konstmuseum)

Intersections PARSE JOURNAL
- 2020
-
Ingår i: PARSE JOURNAL. ; Summer:11
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This issue of PARSE journal concludes the theme of “Intersectional Engagements in Politics and Art”, first initiated as a research arc within PARSE in 2018. Under this theme, artists, scholars and students, as well as a wider public have gathered to share a critical exploration of the nexus of race, coloniality, gender and sexuality in contemporary art-making, scholarship and artistic research. Focusing on socially engaged practices related to memory, history, embodiment and alterity, the journal issue offers yet another set of considerations that brings together research by practitioners and scholars from a wide range of fields, disciplines and contexts. The theme began as a way to address and explore interest within arts research about the notion of intersectionality as a mode of creative practice, as well as a form of critical analysis. This interest, arguably following a turn towards the intersectional in feminist artistic practice and pedagogy, came as scholars in the humanities and social sciences were already debating the various appropriations and reifications that had seemingly made intersectionality into “a grand theory of everything”, to use Kimberlé Crenshaw’s words, with the effect of positioning intersectionality as a deeply contested, seemingly overdetermined concept.

Engaging with Place: Ruin, Memory, Regeneration : Att hämta vatten – The Fountain: An art-technological social drama
- 2022
-
Ingår i: The Curatorial Thing: Audacious Landscapes. - Copenhagen, Denmark : SixtyEight Art Institute.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- AUDACIOUS LANDSCAPES took place in Copenhagen 1 – 8 October 2022, with workshops and lectures led by invited culture, science, and technology professionals. The symposium's goal was to move participants’ thinking from art histories of grief to imaginative proto-histories of thriving in profoundly changed ecosystems and to move critical inquiry from a modernising to an ecologising mindset. The aim was to find a triad of art histories, climate narratives, and innovative spatial-natural theories that could enable a new climate art history. The paper ´Att hämta vatten – The Fountain: An art-technological social drama' was presented as part of a panel with the theme of Engaging with Place: Ruin, Memory, Regeneration.

Ingår i: European Artistic Research Network Conference: Thinking on Stage, May 2 2014, National College of Art and Design, Dublin, EIRE.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- I will present at the very beginning of a research process, towards the making of a new art work through which I aim to interrogate the heritage of the phonocentric Oralist tradition in the education of Deaf people. I seek to ‘read’ and deconstruct Alexander McKendrick’s film, Mandy (1952) through a co-participatory process - with Deaf people educated through Oralism and of the same generation as the child protagonist in the film - to question the advocacy of entry into the symbolic via the ‘spoken’ and ‘speech-identification’ and its relations to psychoanalytic and inter-subjective, spectator-focused film theory. Through mimetic and performative processes inherent to Oralism (such as speech-reading, lip-reading, ventriloquism, echo-practice, dubbing and lip-synchronisation) I aim to adapt Mandy - itself an adaptation of Hilda Lewis’ novel, 'The Day is Ours' (1947) – in ways that reveal the psychoanalytic dynamics of shame at play in Oralism’s delineation of Deafness as a culture and its adherence to Deafness as a disability.

AHA! festival 2016
- 2016
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- For the third year, the AHA festival investigates the meeting between art and science in a three-day event at the Chalmers University of Technology hosted by the Department of Architecture and the Department of Physics. An international festival intended to provide enlightening experiences, staging surprises, new thoughts and displaced perspectives that lead to alternative modes of thinking about exploring the world through art and science. We invite scientists (physicists, historians, astronomers, engineers), artists (dancers, musicians, painters, poets, acrobats) who reside in these borderlands and wish to share their vision and work. The key intention is to celebrate both art and science as key knowledge building devices.The first year’s theme ’Embodiment’ (2014) explored the body as our anchor in the world, followed by the 2015 theme on ’Numbers’, a delightful net we cast over the world. This year's theme is ’Uni-verse,’ again a natural consequence of our interest in the relation between art and science. The elemental force that drives science as well as art is curiosity. Come be curious with us! During the festival we have chosen to divide the word universe into three: uni and "-" and verse. Uni means that something is combined into a whole. Verse means that we are turned in a direction, the origin of the word tells us that it is the plow that turns at the end of the field. And the dash "-" is all the spaces and cracks where new discoveries can grow. Art and science unfolds in the gap between what we know and what we want to know.

Madness and The Bastard in Motion: Learning/Teaching through Performance Studies (in Tilburg)
- 2015
-
Ingår i: 7th Teachers' Academy 2015 ENACT: learning in/through the Arts Tilburg, The Netherlands.
-
Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper performs a dialogue/an encounter between Madness (or the false mad Demidamia from the opera La Finta Pazza performed in Venice in 1641) and the Bastard (the illegitimate love child of arts, performance and education). Entangled they move through time, talking, confronting, shaping and diffracting a non‐existing form. Their method is about diffracting every inch of their journey. Meeting obstacles, facing resistance, walking into bubbles of flair and comfort, stepping into dilemmas and borderlands. Continuously asking themselves: What happens in the microscopic moment? When no/thing could even be imagined. On their way they challenge both time and existence. Learning through teaching through learning. Their journey is an ornamenting becoming in itself. It is an example of mattering as in meaning-‐making and knowledge processing, based on a performance of the indeterminable and affinity. The outcome in the performative encounter in itself – a potential model for teaching and learning in higher arts education.

Allmänningen/The Common Room
- 2023
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Allmänningen/The Common Room was a Vinnova-funded project at the Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts, Gothenburg University (2018–2021). The aim of the project was to begin to develop and pilot a new public model for collaboration and usership between the university and society. Referring directly to the Swedish commons concept of Allmänningen and illustrated through terms such as Allmän (general), Allemansrätten (right of public access), Allmänheten (the general public), the commons can be viewed as not only a right to public access, but a relation between societal institutions and the individual citizen. A relation which within the context of Sweden, could and should naturally be applied and extended to the publicly funded university as a common societal resource. Although there are differences between the natural commons studied by influential figures such as Elinor Ostrom and the university as ‘commons’, the analogy stresses the relational dimensions between viable and sustainable institutions, and the public trust in the commons & its resources. Through a series of residencies in 2021, Allmänningen (The Common Room) began by inviting practitioners, collectives and organisations to help think through questions of what kind of common resources are produced within the university? How can these resources be developed as public commons? In what sense are these resources enclosed, vulnerable and at risk of exploitation? And what is needed today to produce a socially sustainable institution? By addressing these questions, the residencies through scholarship and practice piloted and began to suggest alternative modes and models for university collaboration and usership. Allmänningen/The Common Room prototyped residencies with Sandi Hilal (DAAR), Post Workers Theatre, Kulturhuset Blå Stället and Åbäke. Through four posters with edited interviews, transcriptions and commissioned texts the overall publication provides a comprehensive overview of the residency outputs and intentions.

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Presented at the international conference Challenge the past / diversify the future, the contributions collected herein deal with ways of challenging accepted historical representations of the City by offering modes of recollection and perspectives that capture both multi-sensory and multi-layered aspects of urban context. As such, they offer new empirically grounded research on the experiences of the inhabitants, both past and present, whether individually or as a collective. With a focus on the city as a space that is performed by a host of actants reaching across time through both materiality and memory, the authors critically address modes through which visual, audible, and multi-sensory representations can challenge, diversify or uproot conventions of urban representation. Four projects. Four takes on making representations of a city.

Den lilla skalan i den stora – Kaklet i osmanska rum
- 2022
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Den lilla skalan i den stora (2022) är ett forskningsprojekt om kakel som har mynnat ut i en bok. Mönster och ornament är något fundamentalt sedan tidernas begynnelse och återfinns i alla kulturer. Boken berättar om ornament, mönster och material, om form och teknik, och om de hantverkare som tillsammans arbetat fram de det osmanska rikets kakelklädda väggar. Kunnandet spreds och omformades i möten mellan olika kulturer när konstnärer och hantverkare flyttade till nya platser och uppdrag. Boken tar sin början i 1200-talets Konya (i nuvarande Turkiet), en central plats för kakeltillverkningen där applicering, teknik och formgivning följde seldjukdynastins stil. Under tidigt 1400-tal skedde en stilbrytning då osmanerna introducerade en persisk tradition för hur kakel kunde användas i arkitekturen. Därefter följer den lysande tidigosmanska kakelutvecklingen i Bursa under 1400-talet fram till höjdpunkten av kakelutsmyckningar i Istanbul under 1500- och 1600-talen – den högosmanska tiden. Ett kapitel tar upp det estetiska förhållningssättet under 1500-talet, medan ett avslutande kapitel är fokuserat på 1800-talet och en återblick till de tidigosmanska kakelrummen. I boken möts ornamentet, materialet samt berättelsen kring hantverkare, konstnärer och arkitekter som tillsammans arbetar fram de osmanska kakelklädda väggarna.

On the Question of Exhibition, PARSE Journal Issue 13: Parts 1,2,3
- 2021
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This issue of PARSE, published in three parts, examines the question of the exhibition. One of the aims of this series-issue is to turn attention to the material, experiential, as well as conceptual and political conditions of the exhibition that may have been overlooked within the growing literature on curatorial and exhibition histories. Our aim, as editors is not to elevate the exhibition form. Rather, we wish to interrogate exhibition as a pervasive category of display and mediation where principles of exposition, demonstration, exemplification, taxonomy, circulation, commentary, spectatorship and valorization are operative. Since the 1990’s curatorial discourse has sought to position the curatorial away from, or at the very least as in excess of, the practical tasks of exhibition-making whilst the burgeoning field of exhibition histories has created a historiographic approach to the forms, developments and questions posed by exhibition. This series of contributions seeks, in some respects to return to the fundamental question of exhibition-to interrogate it as a self-explanatory category. Part 1 published in June 2021 includes contributions from Dave Beech, Kathrin Böhm, Alaina Claire Feldman, Samia Henni, Steven Henry Madoff, Saul Marcadent, Lisa Rosendahl and Jéssica Varrichio; and roundtables with Rasha Salti, Nick Aikens, Kristine Khouri and Anthony Gardner; and with Yolande Zola Zoli van der Heide, Gavin Wade, Mick Wilson and Franciska Zólyom. The contributions in Part 2 extend the considerations initiated in Part 1, by bridging the world-making and ordering techniques of exhibition–what we might broadly call its onto-epistemological register-with the pragmatic and technical questions of exhibitionary apparatuses, or its operational register. The purpose being not to create a dichotomy but rather to set up a field of tension and interference between different moments of production-analysis. This part offers detailed analyses of individual exhibitions, allowing for an interplay between the specificities of singular instances coupled with a wider angle from which to survey the field. Part 2 contains contributions from Ingrid Cogne Patrizia Costantin, Kris Dittel & Jelena Novak, Catalina Imizcoz, Joey Orr, Barbara Neves Alves, Mateusz Sapija, Vladislav Shapovalov, Sasha Shestakova, and Joshua Simon. The restless questioning of exhibition underpins Part 3, where artists curators and researchers unpick exhibition’s entangled relationship to pedagogy, to institutional processes, to aesthetics, to constituent work, to lived experience and the ways in which the political arises out of these entanglements. Part 3 includes texts by Doreen Mende, David Morris and Grace Samboh, Ola Hassanain, Li Yizhuo, Ginevra Ludovici, Cătălin Gheorghe, Sabine Dahl Nielsen, a visual essay by Paul O’Neill and a roundtable with Jeanne van Heeswijk, Maria Hlavajova, Damon Reaves & Mick Wilson

In the archival multiverse, the blubber decays but the fever increases. : A contribution to VIOLENCE: the fourth biennial PARSE Research Conference at the Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts, University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Under the "Archives and Witnessing" section of the conference. Moderated by Åsa Sonjasdotter
- 2021
-
Konstnärligt arbete (film/video) (refereegranskat)abstract
- The presented work is composed by Marc Johnson — a memory worker — who is currently a Ph.D. candidate in performative and media-based practices at the Stockholm University of the Arts. The shared perspectives are engaging issues of violence from the center of an artistic practice-based research focused on archival practices and concerned with how a documentary heritage circulates, is formed, debated, shared, and re-interpreted.The lecture-performance starts by considering the “Rights of Nature” — from recent environmental litigations in Aotearoa (New Zealand), Bolivia, and Ecuador — which focus on the idea of legal standing. What does it take to enforce the legal personhood of a river or other natural entities?Marc Johnson investigates and reflects on some ways to deal with representations of murdered bodies — human and more-than-human (cellular life forms) — without replicating historical patterns of abuse? Under what conditions shall these documents, artifacts, or, images be seen?Marc Johnson collaborates with Hitomi Ohki 大木瞳 — Soprano singer — to expose how polyphony[1] and counterpoint[2] applied to cinema can be used practically to navigate the uncertain archive(s) of violence studies.Marc Johnson addresses the dynamics of archival silences[3] and archival amnesty[4] as an important reminder of the ways in which violence — despite its presence in the everyday life of most people mainly through paper-based, and online news media (including social networks) — can also be deeply buried and invisible through institutional and corporate powers and other means; nonetheless impacting the lives of ordinary people (as opposed to powerful people, military, political and business leaders).The proposal does not intend to resolve; but rather to expose and to put oneself in the presence of using the means of montage.Skepsis is the deployed strategy throughout the duration of the time-based work as defined by Jacques Derrida as a “vigilance, and attention of the gaze during an examination. […] One is on the lookout, one reflects upon what one sees, reflects what one sees by delaying the moment of conclusion.”[5] [1] A process of combining two or more voices so that they harmonize with each other but maintain their individuality.[2] A process of adding one or more melodies as an accompaniment to a given melody according to certain fixed rules; a composition in which melodies are thus combined.[3] Rodney G.

AHA! festival 2014
- 2014
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- ”Science and art” is the typical motto of a polytechnic, with the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm as a Swedish example. Only too seldom do we have occasion to ask ourselves what the words are meant to imply.The Royal Institute of Technology received its emblem in 1827. At that time, ”science” referred to theoretical knowledge, and ”art” to practical ability. Our understanding of the world around us on the one hand, our capacity to change it on the other – in both cases in a systematic or methodical fashion, and in both cases in broad generality. Today, we would rather speak of theory and practice, but the question is essentially the same: how do we go from thought to action, and how do we get back again?But the meaning of the two words was soon to change. Today, ”science” no longer refers to systematic knowledge, but rather to a highly professionalised, specialised and often technically advanced activity intended for the production of empirically secure facts. Similarly, ”art” is no longer a methodical ability, but rather a complex and autonomous activity comparable to science: the creation of images, sounds, and other forms of sensuous experience with a most immediate effect. Forms that grab hold, shake up, leave us at a loss. Experiences that make us question ourselves and the world around us.The relation between science and art has become more complex, but is just as important to attend to. Their meeting is still that of theory and practice, but also something more: a meeting of causal connections and meaningful coherences, of given conditions and unsuspected possibilities, of the order of things and our own place within it.By bringing together science and art, architecture provides an ideal playing field for such a confrontation. This is why the Department of Architecture at the Chalmers University of Technology has initiated the AHA! Festival, October 21–23, 2014 that, during three days of lectures, workshops, conversations, exhibitions, concerts, performances, and mingles, will offer thought-provoking experiences, hands-on surprises, itinerant perspectives, and savoury ideas. In this way the festival welcomes students and researches at Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg to turn the searchlight onto the relation between two different– but equally important – human activities.

Memory is Frail (and Truth Brittle) – performance lecture
- 2024
-
Ingår i: Jakarta, MACAN Museum, 13 Jan 2024.
-
Konstnärligt arbete (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This performance lecture is based on an eponymous installation of 115 charcoal and graphite drawings the artist made in 2019, which was based on a text published in 2018. It questions the nature of reality and the building block of human knowledge, which is perceived mainly through humankind’s limited senses, the main part of which is the eye. At an allegorical level, it interrogates how our understanding of the world is largely constructed visually and recorded through memory, and how these are also prone to manipulation, for example in state propaganda and isolated versions of state-sanctioned history. --- Art does not merely articulate an artist’s personal expression but is often inseparable from a larger historical, political, and geographical context. To kick off the 2024 Museum MACAN public programs, artist/researcher Tintin Wulia presents a performance lecture and discussion session, Memory is Frail (and Truth Brittle). Exhibited as 115 illustrations drawn with charcoal and graphite, Memory is Frail (and Truth Brittle) presents a connection between major world events scattered across different times and places, and how these events are recollected by humans. As the subject navigates through ideas surrounding reality, frailty of memory, and human geography and history, Wulia interrogates what we believe to be reality is constructed largely from our sensory perception, state-sanctioned histories, and fragile memories of humans.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In a series of articles we, an art historian – von Rosen – and a theatre historian – Szalczer –, set out to reassess Carl Grabow’s 1907 designs for the world premiere of August Strindberg’s A Dream Play at the Swedish Theatre (Svenska Teatern) in Stockholm. By doing so, we challenge the persistently negative narrative on Grabow’s work with the production, to be found both in Swedish and international theatre and art history. The first article in the series focuses on Grabow’s color designs for the production, kept at the Swedish Museum of Performing Arts (Scenkonstmuseet) in Stockholm, and are made digitally accessible for the first time here in Dokumenterat. Within the broader field of scenography research designs have been proven to have agency beyond their realization on stage, and can also be used to access visual, spatial and multimodal resources of past performances. Our goal is to probe into how a scenographic approach to Grabow’s designs, understood as vital parts of the performance archive, may contribute to developing new historiographic methods while yielding new insights on the production history of A Dream Play. Throughout our first scenographic journey with Grabow’s designs we tested iconography as a method to explore and experience the world created by them. As we shall see in the next article, the testimonies of reviewers and illustrators indicate that Grabow’s collaboration with the production team resulted in different solutions than the perhaps early ideas envisioned in these designs. What is significant for us, however, is that regardless of its stage realization, the design-series manifests an autonomy, a unified artistic vision, conveyed by the succession of images as a painterly and multi-sensory reflection of the world of the play. What became apparent is that far from being haphazard superficial sketches, Grabow’s designs present a consistent interpretation of A Dream Play, with strong occult-spiritual overtones and attempts at painterly dematerialization, which counteract the realism and the materialization of the dream he was accused of by critics ever since. In our next article, we will further explore Grabow’s designs, including drawn and written information on their backsides, in the context of contemporary critical and pictorial response to the actual stage production. By staging a dialogue between the designs and the performance within its cultural milieu, we not only hope to learn more about Grabow’s craft and working process, but also about the constructive use of the scenographic approach in archival research.

- Disobedience Live var en direktsänd dokumentär om fyra aktivisterna Sigrid, Kevin, Juan och Sarakka som gav sig av på en resa för att delta i en civil olydnadsaktion för klimatet. Tillsammans med tusentals andra ville de blockera infrastruktur för uppgrävning och förbränning av brunkol i Rhineland, Tyskland. Dokumentären pågick dygnet runt 22-27 augusti 2O17 och visades i realtid. Detta konstprojekt genomfördes av Troja scenkonst, som ville belysa demokratins tillstånd idag samt olika former av engagemang som människor ägnar sig åt – med civil olydnad som utgångspunkt.

Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- I detta avsnitt pratar vi om det mest samtida konstverk i poddens historia hittills, nämligen Lars Lerins akvarellmålning ”Fönster mot gården” från 2009, som finns i Nordiska Akvarellmuseets samlingar. I podden pratar vi om Lerins motivvärld och arbetssätt, men även om akvarellmediets historia och traditioner samt föreställningar som förknippas med detta medium. Inte minst kontextualiserar vi målningen och dess motiv. Vi berättar bland annat om filmförlagan ”Fönstret åt gården” från 1954 och dess utgångspunkter som filmens regissör Alfred Hitchcock hittade i den amerikanska målaren Edward Hoppers konst och hans voyeuristiska motiv.

Scenographic approaches: conceptualizing multisensory heritage
- 2017
-
Ingår i: GPS400 conference 8-9 November 2017.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- During the last decades the concept of scenography has not only undergone considerable theorization but has also expanded beyond more traditional theatrical settings to include potentially all environments, objects, actors and actions (McKinney & Butterworth 2009, Lotker & Gough 2013, McKinney & Palmer 2017, Aronson 2017). This expansion has to an increasing extent emphasized the critical, transformative potential of embodied, multisensory dimensions of scenographic events emphasizing the roles of participants and performers. In recognition of this the aim of my presentation is to identify productive approaches within scenography research to better conceptualize and examine multisensory heritage. In particular the paper will explore relational, affective and material approaches to multifaceted performative, socially engaged and artistic events. I will for example look into Dr Alda Terracciano’s multisensory digital installation Zelige Door on Golborne Road from the arts and heritage project Mapping Memory Routes of Moroccan Communities.

Scenography and Art History: Performance Design and Visual Culture
- 2021
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Scenography and Art History reimagines scenography as a critical concept for art history, and is the first book to demonstrate the importance and usefulness of this concept for art historians and scholars in related fields. It provides a vital evaluation of the contemporary importance of scenography as a critical tool for art historians and scholars from related branches of study addressing phenomena such as witchy designs, Early Modern festival books, live rock performances, digital fashion photography, and outdoor dance interventions. With its nuanced and detailed case studies, this book is an innovative contribution to ongoing debates within art history and visual studies concerning multisensory events. It extends the existing literature by demonstrating the importance of a reimagined scenography concept for comprehending historical and contemporary art histories and visual cultures more broadly. The book contends that scenography is no longer restricted to the traditional space of the theatre, but has become an important concept for approaching art historical and contemporary objects and events. It explores scenography not solely as a critical approach and theoretical concept, but also as an important practice linked with unrecognized labour and broader political, social and gendered issues in a great variety of contexts, such as festive culture, sacred settings, fashion, film, or performing arts. Designed as a key resource for students, teachers and researchers in art history, visual studies, and related subjects, the book, through its cross-disciplinary frame, does consider, implicitly and explicitly, the roles of both scenography and art in society.

The Fold, A Physical Model of Abstract Reversibility and Envelopment
- 2017
-
Ingår i: The Dark Precursor: Deleuze and Artistic Research. - Leuven : Leuven University Press. - 9462701180 - 9789462701182
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- For artistic research, the model of the fold is exceptionally interesting because it deals with how form and contents intertwine in a physical model, and how concrete and abstract interrelate on the plane of consistency. In my chapter I focus on chapter two in "The Fold" by Gilles Deleuze, and take up the concept of inflection as an elastic point in the model of the fold that discloses a reality of reversibility. Deleuze states that for Paul Klee the point as a “nonconceptual concept of noncontradiction” (15) moves along an inflection. “It is the point of inflection itself, where the tangent crosses the curve. That is the point-fold” (ibid). Through a simple sketch, Deleuze demonstrates how the point of inflection is the point where the concave turns to be convex. This is the point of inflection. What happens in the point of inflection? Is it a conjunction? A passage? It would seem that this very special point is a point that conceals a profound metaphysical realization. It is a physical point in the attribute of extension that corresponds to an invisible point of abstraction in the attribute of thought. Deleuze wants to draw attention to this point by referring to the thinking of Leibniz, the Neoplatonists, and Whitehead. Because of the existence of concave and convex, there are different point of views, depending on which place we see from. The enfolding reality has multiple points of views; each point of view is a perspective. It appears that we are captured in our point of view. There is always a reversible side of a point of view, and by the power of the imagination we can think the concept of reversibility. A physical model of the fold reveals, in fact, a metaphysical reality of the attributes, and the power of the attributes, according to Deleuze’s references to Spinoza. This thinking of Deleuze encompasses several crucial things: First, we assume that reality has a mirroring construction; in other words, reality corresponds to an abstract reality that the model of the Fold demonstrates. That is to say, physical reality and abstraction are two sides of the same coin. Second, the model of enfolding implies an innate life, the life of a monad, a singularity as a soul. Deleuze writes, “We are moving from inflection to inclusion in a subject, as if from virtual to the real, inflection defining the fold, but inclusion defining the soul or the subject, that is, what envelops the fold, its final cause and its complete act.” (24). Finally, Deleuze asks, “in order that the virtual can be incarnated of effectuated, is something needed other than this actualization in the souls? Is a realization in the matter also required, because the folds of this matter might happen to reduplicate the folds in the soul?” (29). I explore whether the way of creating folds in matter leads to a life of sensibility, by making sculptoral models of folds though a process of autogenesis. The art work consists of a preparation of a material for making folds in matter. By letting them coagulate, I thereby “freeze” the process to a fixed form, in order to let a “nondimensional point between dimensions” (16) be visible. Reference: Gilles Deleuze.

- The 2019 PARSE conference “HUMAN” invited contributions to “reimagine, remake, expose and expand the human vis-à-vis notions of the nonhuman, inhuman, subhuman, post-human and inhumane.This collection offers no singularly defined notion of human. Instead it offers positions and analysis, performances and speculations on variegated ideas of the human—with its multiple pre-fixes, hence *human. The contributors all search for revitalised understandings of human in the context of revised histories, uncertain present conditions and in a future when technology, algorithms and environmental concerns, biodiversity and human biology converge in an ethical and political quagmire.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this writing I seek to detect a few precursory concerns that may inform an initial response to the question, ‘What is at Stake in Community Practice? What Have We Learned? In doing so I consider issues of legacy and obfuscation; the delimiting of education as a public good, and indicate the potential for artist-organisation to be considered in determining organisational practices.

John Singer Sargent, Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose
- 2024

Ingår i: Konsthistoriepodden. - : Acast. ; :33

Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Vi har länge velat prata om den amerikanske målaren John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) och när vi var i Boston och såg hans fantastiska målningar där, bestämde vi oss att göra ett avsnitt om denna spännande och redan på sin tid mycket populära konstnär! Sargent är mest känd för sina porträtt, men vi valde ”Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose”, som målades 1885-86 och som finns på Tate Britain i London. Vad betyder den mystiska titeln som låter som en trollformel egentligen? Och är det en spegling av ett och samma barn vi ser? Vilken skandal ledde till att Sargent var tvungen att lämna Paris och hur hamnade han i Cotswolds, där målningen färdigställdes under två sensomrar? Varför arbetade Sargent under långa perioder bara 10 minuter per dag med verket? Och hur kom det sig att läsarskaran bakom The Pall Mall Gazette röstade fram målningen som den man minst av alla ville ha i sitt hem?

Konsthistoriepodden, avsnitt 20: Gustav Klimt, Adele Bloch-Bauer I
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Konsthistoriepodden. - : Acast. ; :20
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Vi ska prata om Gustav Klimts porträtt ”Adele Bloch-Bauer I” från 1907, som även kallas för “Goldene Adele”, alltså “gyllene Adele” på tyska och “The Lady in Gold” eller “The Woman in Gold” på engelska. Verket fanns länge på Österreichische Galerie Belvedere i Wien, men är nuförtiden en del av samlingarna på Neue Galerie i New York. Porträttet bjuder på en mängd fängslande historier som sträcker sig från den tiden då det skapades fram till vår egen tid. Det är en målning som exproprierades av nazisterna och som inte skulle lämnas tillbaka till den rättmätiga ägaren förrän en kvinna i Los Angeles stämde den österrikiska staten och det blev ett politiskt ärende. Det är ett porträtt som nuförtiden anses vara ett konstverk som symboliserar staden Wien och dess guldålder vid förra sekelskiftet, “Wiener Moderne”, samtidigt som det har blivit ett nationell ikon för den kulturella identiteten av hela landet Österrike. Detta blev uppenbart i och med den mediala uppmärksamheten, när man med en stor affischkampanj tog farväl av verket då det lämnade Österrike. Självklart kommer vi också prata om konstnären bakom verket och vad som kan ha inspirerat honom till den karaktäristiska stilen han utvecklade under sin ”gyllene period”. Vi ska inte heller undanhålla Klimts privatliv och att han skapade sig en persona som ”womanizer” i reformdräkt. Ryktena spred sig att han var naken under sin vida rock och alltid hade modeller i sin ateljé som han strulade med.

Konsthantverk i Sverige, del 1
- 2015
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Konsthantverk i Sverige del 1 samlar 18 författare. Boken kommer ur ett gemensamt intresse att förändra och vidga en konventionell historieskrivning om konsthantverk, bortom traditionella materialuppdelningar och nationella förståelser. Det vi skriver om kan ha kallats slöjd, konst, design, pyssel, konsthantverk, formgivning, brukskonst, hantverk och hemslöjd. Historia betraktas här som något pågående, något som vi gör. Det är ingen neutral aktivitet utan den är platsspecifik. I Konsthantverk i Sverige del 1 skildrar författarna från sina perspektiv en berättelse om materialitet och görande i Sverige från sent 1800-tal och fram till i dag. Boken skall inte ses som Historien med stort h utan snarare som de första stegen i en diskussion om historia, materialitet och görande.Med texter av Zandra Ahl, Christian Björk, Otto von Busch, Päivi Ernkvist, Kakan Hermansson, Elina Holmgren, Charlotte Hyltén-Cavallius, Frida Hållander, Love Jönsson, Mahmoud Keshavarz, Gunilla Lundahl, Helena Mattsson, Anneli Palmsköld, Johanna Rosenqvist, Miro Sazdic, Rosa Taikon, Jorunn Veiteberg, Christina Zetterlund
