Poésie contre fin du monde c'est une exposition comme une réponse à la question "ça va ?" mais sans sourire gêné ou oui automatique. C'est en ces termes que mes invité·es d'aujourd'hui on choisit de présenter l'exposition qu'iels montrent à Mécènes du Sud Montpellier-Sète-Bézier. L'une est senior curator à Kanal Centre Pompidou à Bruxelles, il s'agit de Devrim Bayar ; quand l'autre Ethan Assouline est artiste. Ensemble iels ont pensé la quatrième occurence d'un projet que porte Ethan depuis 2021 : la médiathèque autonome. Un espace de consultation et de partage de textes qu'Ethan glane ça et là depuis ses études. Jusqu'au 4 janvier prochain, vous pouvez les découvrir au milieu d'oeuvres d'artistes qui tentent elles et eux aussi d'esquisser de nouveaux récits et de répondre par la fiction, les mots et la poésie aux maux de notre époque. Parmi elleux Neïla Czermak Ichti, Youri Johnson, Luna Mahoux, Rafael Moreno, Cecilia Vicuña, Walter Swennen, Agatha Wara et Slow Reading Club. C'est pour mettre en commun toutes ces pensées que je les reçois aujourd'hui dans PRÉSENT·E ! Références citées dans l'épisode :

We start our journey into intimacy by considering our interactions with strangers. The unexpected crossing of paths between people who have no knowledge of each other can be emotionally impactful, whether these moments leave us unsettled, or uplifted by a sense of hope and connection. What forms of proximity arise between strangers in public spaces? How and why do artists make work which invites new encounters between themselves and audience members? What possibilities and risks emerge when they do?  Featuring a conversation with Adrian Piper, an interview with Scottee, a performance by Cecilia Vicuña from the Serpentine archive, and Serpentine curator Tamsin Hong in conversation with Gaylene Gould.

Confronting the slippery topics of fear, vulnerability, sex, love, and loneliness in art and life, the Intimacies series delves into the feelings and experiences which we don't always voice – from our relationships with family or strangers, to the things we fear most and our deepest desires, to our surroundings and our innermost selves. Each episode combines interviews, original audio works, conversations, and pieces from the Serpentine archive. This series itself is personal, emotional, reflective, and an exploration of vulnerability in many ways.

If you were out and about in 1984, you might have noticed a striking poster wheatpasted everywhere. It featured two heroic silhouettes pulling down a statue, clearly avatars of the People topping the icon of a hated political dictator. But instead of a statue of a man in uniform, they were bringing down an image of a huge banana. If you were an art fan you might also recognize the signature of Claes Oldenburg, one of the most famous Pop artists. But whereas Oldenburg was best known for playful, giant-sized sculptures of everyday objects, this giant banana had a clear and outspoken message of political solidarity: the term “banana republic” comes from the bad governments of Central America that the U.S. propped up at the behest of its fruit corporations. And the U.S. was once again intervening in Central America."Installation view, Art for the Future: Artists Call and Central American Solidarities at Tufts University Art Galleries, 2022. Peter Harris Photography."[/caption] Oldenburg's memorable lithograph was one image associated with the "Artists' Call Against U.S. Intervention in Central America." And it is one of a huge number of artworks and artifacts relating to this intense early-'80s moment of artist organizing that have just gone on view at Tufts University Art Galleries in the show “Art for the Future: Artists Call and Central American Solidarities.” The '80s are remembered as a time of political conservatism and yuppie excess. But it was also the height of the late Cold War machinations. The Ronald Reagan administration's backing of death squads and repression of left-wing movements in places like Nicaragua and El Salvador is one of its darkest chapters. A robust Central American solidarity movement across the United States in the early '80s organized to defend refugees and decry the U.S.'s backing of the brutality. The Artists Call was inspired and in dialogue with this wave of public activity, an attempt to use art's clout to raise money and to reach an influential public. Involving figures including the Salvadoran poet and exile Daniel Flores y Ascencio, the curator and artist Coosje van Breuggen, and the famed art critic Lucy Lippard, the Artists Call was an organizing network that brought together, as Lippard remembers, “young and old, Latin, Central, and North American, lefties and liberals, artists working in a broad spectrum of styles.” Emerging from the discussions around a show by the art collective Group Material dedicated to Central American activism in 1982, the Artists' Call would ultimately inspire participation from thousands of artists, including Vito Acconci, Louise Bourgeois, Sol LeWitt, Donald Judd, Ana Mendieta, and Cecilia Vicuña. Yet despite the high-profile names it rallied and the recent interest in historical models of artist activism, the Artists' Call has been little remembered until now. On this week's episode, Ben Davis, Artnet News's chief art critic, had the chance to talk about the Artists Call with the curators of “Art for the Future”: Erina Duganne and Abigail Satinsky, as well as Lucy Lippard herself.

Peter Harris Photography."[/caption] Oldenburg's memorable lithograph was one image associated with the "Artists' Call Against U.S. Intervention in Central America." And it is one of a huge number of artworks and artifacts relating to this intense early-'80s moment of artist organizing that have just gone on view at Tufts University Art Galleries in the show “Art for the Future: Artists Call and Central American Solidarities.” The '80s are remembered as a time of political conservatism and yuppie excess. But it was also the height of the late Cold War machinations. The Ronald Reagan administration's backing of death squads and repression of left-wing movements in places like Nicaragua and El Salvador is one of its darkest chapters. A robust Central American solidarity movement across the United States in the early '80s organized to defend refugees and decry the U.S.'s backing of the brutality. The Artists Call was inspired and in dialogue with this wave of public activity, an attempt to use art's clout to raise money and to reach an influential public. Involving figures including the Salvadoran poet and exile Daniel Flores y Ascencio, the curator and artist Coosje van Breuggen, and the famed art critic Lucy Lippard, the Artists Call was an organizing network that brought together, as Lippard remembers, “young and old, Latin, Central, and North American, lefties and liberals, artists working in a broad spectrum of styles.” Emerging from the discussions around a show by the art collective Group Material dedicated to Central American activism in 1982, the Artists' Call would ultimately inspire participation from thousands of artists, including Vito Acconci, Louise Bourgeois, Sol LeWitt, Donald Judd, Ana Mendieta, and Cecilia Vicuña. Yet despite the high-profile names it rallied and the recent interest in historical models of artist activism, the Artists' Call has been little remembered until now. On this week's episode, Ben Davis, Artnet News's chief art critic, had the chance to talk about the Artists Call with the curators of “Art for the Future”: Erina Duganne and Abigail Satinsky, as well as Lucy Lippard herself.

Today's episode dives into Cecilia Vicuña's 'Colliding and not colliding at the same time'. The performance begins as the audience, having been encouraged to ask questions about an art video that had just been screened, went momentarily silent. No questions were being asked, so Vicuña began improvisationally to fill the room with words and sounds, exploring a convergence or collision of topics: the then-recent election of Donald Trump, the “millionaires' coup” in Brazil, the “mystery of what is happening at this moment in the earth,” the collective thought of the people in the room, and the room itself. Edwin Torres, Huda Fakhreddine, and Jena Osman joined Al Filreis in the Arts Café at the Kelly Writers House to record this episode.

Two rivers situate our conversation with two friends, poet/artist Cecilia Vicuña and art historian/curator Sarah Lookofsky. El Río Mapocho begins in the Andes Mountains and runs through the city of Santiago, Chile where Cecilia was born, while the River Akerselva begins in Maridal Lake and flows through waterfalls and former industrial areas of Oslo where Sarah recently moved. What might we learn to hear if we attend to the interweaving languages of these ancient waters and the many lives, joys, brutalities, and deaths they carry, remember, and resist? In this episode, Cecilia and Sarah talk about multispecies connection, histories of contamination and colonialism, quantum co-evolution, listening with fingers, dancing with mussels, speaking with red wing thrushes, and the "explosive commitment to the beauty of being alive." ceciliavicunasarahlookofsky

Bodies exceed humanity. They remind us that we are part of something vaster—and smaller—more complex, more connected than our mere existence as an atomized species. Our bodies, and bodies in general, are composed out of heterogeneity and multitudes. All bodies are wet collective bodies, defined by how they link to other bodies, places, environments, technologies. Think of breathing, clogging, decomposing, discharging, flushing, lubricating, melting, menstruating, transfusing. Bodies exist as trans- and extra-territorial beings. They live in hybridity. This porous condition produces a planetary wet-togetherness, a “commoning” force that constitutes all bodies as collective hydro-subjects. Wet-Togetherness is a collaboration between e-flux and the 13th Shanghai Biennale, Bodies of Water, curated by Andrés Jaque, Marina Otero Verzier, Lucia Pietroiusti, Filipa Ramos and YOU Mi, and organized and promoted by the Power Station of Art. It consists of 9 sound pieces in which 21 artists, activists and researchers enact aqueousness through sound. The series has been edited by José Luis Espejo and Rubén Coll with the sound design of Tomoko Sauvage, coordination by Roberto González García, and locutions by Yang Yang. Episode 1. Menstruating: Cecilia Vicuña Menstrual fluids are carriers of taboos, gender stereotypes, social behaviours, notions of life and death, purity and uncleanliness. Their symbolism connects bodies to the moon, mountains, rivers, and goddesses. Menstruating involves both synchronicity with the cosmos and forms of earthly solidarity.   Image: Paula Vilaplana de Miguel.

On October 10, 2018, both the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and Cecilia Vicuña herself were generous enough to give me the opportunity to take a few moments away from the installation of "Disappeared Quipu" and interview Vicuña. We talked about bridging the masculinity of Land Art and the femininity of Fiber Art, the origins of Vicuña's life as an artist, and how her own awareness has evolved throughout her career.

Episode 1 of Commonplace’s special series on translation.Rosa Alcalá is the author of three full-length collections of poetry, most recently, MyOTHER TONGUE (Futurepoem), and translator of several full-length translations including the recently released New and Selected Poems of Cecilia Vicuña (Kelsey Street Press) for which Alcalá received a translation fellowship from the National Endowment of the Arts in 2015.Alcalá talks to Commonplace host Rachel Zucker about the experience of translating and transcribing the poetry and performances of Chilean-born artist Cecilia Vicuña. Alcalá speaks about growing up in Paterson, N.J., having been a child interpreter and mediator for her Spanish-speaking parents, language shame, studying at Brown and meeting Vicuña for the first time, studying transcription and ethnopoetics with Dennis Tedlock at SUNY Buffalo, grappling with how to record ephemerality, inaudibility, temporality, volume, tone and the feeling of listening (and mishearing) when translating, transcribing, and editing Vicuña’s multi-lingual performances for the book Spit Temple. Alcalá describes her long friendship with Vicuña, accepting the invitation to edit and translate Vicuña’s New and Selected, retranslating earlier translations, how the work of translating others affects her own writing, poetry as a space to say what is impossible to say in any language, literary and linguistic heritage, her interest in the NY School poets (especially Frank O’Hara and Bernadette Mayer), raising a bilingual child, and her poem “Heritage Speaker” from MyOTHER TONGUE.LINER NOTES:05 – Rosa Alcalá reads “The Brilliance of Orifices” from New and Selected Poems of Cecilia Vicuña (Kelsey Street Press, 2018).8:49 – Alcalá reads “Mondo (Fragmentos del Diario Estúpido)” from New and Selected Poems of Cecilia Vicuña.19:11 – Cecilia Vicuña singing and reading [McNally].22:20 – Vicuña introduces and begins reading her poem, “Quen- to Shipibo” [McNally].28:30 – “The translation is definitely associated to time...” Vicuña speaking about working with her translators [McNally].36:20 – Alcalá reads “Art in General, New York City, May 19, 1999” from Spit Temple (Ugly Duckling Presse, 2012).40:14 – Alcalá reads “Cecilia Vicuña: The Poetry Project at St. Marks Church, 2002 [a letter]” from Spit Temple.58:24 – Alcalá reads “Heritage Speaker” from MyOTHER TONGUE (Futurepoem, 2017).

Regresa a Diario Nocturno la gran artista chilena Cecilia Vicuña, una de las creadoras y pensadoras que han precursado el movimiento conceptual en Latinoamérica desde una óptica de liberación de los femenino. Hilando con este tema, nunca mejor dicho, Cecilia se convierte en el espejo en el que Puerperina se refleja para comentar un tema espinoso, vetado en la cultura occidental y que da título al programa. Hablamos de la menstruación desde la órbita del odio que históricamente se ha promovido hacia un proceso que la artista entiende como liberación y conexión cósmica. En toda la carrera artística de Cecilia existe un interés de aproximación hacia la menstruación femenina desde la simbología del hilo rojo como imagen de la sangre de la mujer. Desde que iniciara en 1972 su estudio en esta materia, la artista ha creado una cosmopoética que la ha llevado a protagonizar una de las instalaciones de la última Documenta de Kassel, recientemente finalizada. En esta conversación, asistimos a un diálogo limpio y sanador de una cuestión que socialmente se ha entendido como un tema asqueroso, poco elegante y carente de prestigio.

This event is a part of the “GIANT NIGHT: The Poetry Project at 50” platform series. In honor of our 50th Anniversary, and as part of our fundraising efforts, the Project teamed up with The Song Cave to print a limited edition portfolio of prints from five artists whose work is important to us: Jonas Mekas, Simone Forti, Cecilia Vicuña, Mary Manning, and Amy Sillman. All of the images were drawn from the artist's past bodies of work and were made between the 1960's and last year! The portfolio, which will be available for sale, is an edition of 50 c-prints and inkjet prints, and costs $1,000 for the set or $250 per print. There will be short performances by the artists as well as a showing of Sillman's “Draft of a Voice-Over for Split-Screen Video Loop” (Poem by Lisa Robertson drawing/animations by Sillman). The artists who love poets who will be performing this evening are: Jonas Mekas, Amy Sillman, Sreshta Rit Premnath, Sunita Prasad, Gordon Hall, and Sable Elyse Smith. Co-presented with The Song Cave.

El derecho a hablar y a decir lo que uno siente es un acto fuertemente político. Cecilia Vicuña es una poeta y artista visual chilena que en los años sesenta fue censurada por escribir poesía erótica en Chile. Camila Moreno conoció su poesía en su adolescencia y le abrió las puertas del erotismo. A sus 62 años, reside en Nueva York y tanto su poesía como su performance es sumamente valorada a nivel internacional. Ella se atrevió a escribir lo que nadie decía. Se atrevió a hablar de política, erotismo y chamanismo en una misma frase. Se atrevió a viajar sola por el mundo y a vivir inseparablemente con su arte.En situaciones de suma precariedad estudió en Londres y vivió en Colombia. Rescata el imaginario indígena en sus performances y se relaciona con el trance y lo ritual desde una voz brutal. Se podría decir que es una de las pocas artistas en el presente que trabajan desde una verdad rotunda y devastadora. En Diario Nocturno queremos acercarnos a su poder y entender cómo se cruza el cóndor y el erotismo y hacer un poco de justicia ante una de las artistas más grandes y trascendentes de nuestro tiempo y que Chile aún no sabe reconocer.Su obra se ha presentado en Whitechapel Art Gallery, Londres; Bienal de Sydney, Australia; y el MoMa, Nueva York, en instalaciones de gran escala. Sus libros más recientes son El Zen Surado (2013), Chanccani Quipu, (2012) y Spit Temple: The Selected Performances of Cecilia Vicuña (2012). Ha recibido el título honorífico de Messenger Lecturer 2015 de Cornell University en Nueva York.
