Emily Carr Twilight Hour Speaker Series T’ai Smith is Assistant Professor in the Department of Art History, Visual Art & Theory at the University of British Columbia. Her forthcoming book, entitled *Writing on Weaving: a Bauhaus Craft, a Bauhaus Medium*, looks at how Bauhaus weavers articulated, through essays, the specific dimensions of their craft. That book will be out from University of Minnesota Press in late 2014. Her articles and reviews have appeared in various periodicals, including Art Journal, Grey Room, Journal of Modern Craft, and Texte zur Kunst. She is currently developing a new book project, provisionally titled “Textile Media and Philosophy," which will examine the use of textile metaphors in media theory and philosophy since the 19th-century. Next summer she will be a fellow at IKKM, a media studies institute at the Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany.
Yanone is a German based graphic/type designer, multimedia artist, disc jockey and sound system operator. Born in Dresden, Germany, Yanone grew up in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. We’re wondering why he moved to Ethiopia and if that has influenced his work and perspective on design in a certain way? And if it was strange to move back to Germany after all this time? He explains how this culture shock, took him quite some time to get accustomed to. Yanone started to design type in his first university years at the Bauhaus-University in Weimar and we hear all about his first typeface release; Kaffeesatz. We also talk about his internships at FontShop International in Berlin and at SYNTAX in Amman, Jordan and how his Arabic/Latin typeface Amman, for the rebranding of Jordan’s capital, came about. Recorded at the 20plusX 2011 Symposium in München, Germany. Yanone :: Kava typeface :: Syntax :: Amman :: File Download (27:18 min / 31 MB)
This week: Duncan, Brian, and Abigail Satinsky in conversation with Christine Hill at the Open Engagement conference, which took place from May 13 to 15, 2011 at Portland State University. Open Engagement is an initiative of PSU’s Art and Social Practice MFA program that encourages discussion on various perspectives in social practice. Christine Hill is an artist, musician, hobby librarian and the proprietor of Volksboutique, a former second-hand shop turned production facility operating out of Brooklyn, New York and Berlin, Germany. Hill's work proposes new investigations into mixed-media installation and performance. Examining contemporary forms of popular entertainment (for example, producing a television talk show in a New York gallery, in Pilot, 2000), imitating paradigms of elite advertising, and deploying businesses as art projects (a second-hand clothing store in Berlin, Volksboutique in 1996-97, a fully operable tour guide agency in New York in 1999) Hill investigates the proximity of contemporary art to mass entertainment, consumerism, and popular culture. In the process, she proposes new roles for viewers (as consumers, tourists, members of a TV audience), redefines artistic spaces of exhibition (as stores, studios, catwalks), and reinvents a mobile artistic identity (whether as talk show host, store owner, or tour guide). She defines these interventions as 'Organizational Ventures.' Hill has exhibited and lectured widely internationally. She has been the subject of numerous publications and she shows regularly. Recent solo exhibitions include Ronald Feldman Fine Arts, New York; Galerie EIGEN+ART, Berlin; the Museum of Contemporary Art Leipzig; the MigrosMuseum in Zurich and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Cleveland. Forthcoming projects include collaboration with the curator Mary Jane Jacob for Chicago's Sullivan Galleries and a solo presentation at the Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin, both in 2009. She was included in documenta X in 1997, and has participated in numerous international group exhibitions. Her work has been reviewed extensively, including in Artforum, The New York Times, The Village Voice, Art in America and in considerable international publications. The "Volksboutique Style Manual" is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. The Volksboutique project "Minutes" was included in the 2007 Venice Biennale under the curation of Robert Storr. Christine Hill is Professor and Chair of Media, Trend and Public Appearance at the Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany. www.volksboutique.org
How did native Canadian Jay Rutherford end up with a professorate at the Art and Design Faculty of the Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany? What’s the main difference between Canadians and Germans? Is he ever considering going back to Canada? Being a teacher, the students’ respect sometimes comes years later: ‘I’m sorry, I was such a jerk when I was your student, but thanks a lot’.
