Doug Ashford, Julie Ault, Group Material
1989 wurden die damaligen Mitglieder von Group Material – Doug Ashford, Julie Ault, Felix Gonzalez-Torres und Karen Ramspacher – von der MATRIX Gallery am Berkeley University Art Museum dazu eingeladen, sich mit dem Thema AIDS auseinanderzusetzen. Die Künstler trugen ihre Recherchen in einer nach Jahren strukturierten Übersicht über die Umstände zusammen, unter denen sich die Epidemie in eine nationale Krise gewandelt hatte. Untersucht wurden Ereignisse in den Bereichen Medizin, Politik und Statistik, Darstellungen von AIDS in den Medien und künstlerische Resonanzen. Die AIDS Timeline, die in diesem Notizbuch abgedruckt ist, informiert über die verbreitete Stigmatisierung von Menschen mit AIDS, dokumentiert den Einfluss, den Homophobie und Rassismus auf die Herausbildung der öffentlichen Ordnung ausüben und stellt dies in einem größeren gesellschaftspolitischen Zusammenhang. Doug Ashford (*1958) ist Künstler, Autor sowie assoziierter Professor an der Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art in New York . Julie Ault (*1957) arbeitet als Künstlerin, Kuratorin, Herausgeberin und Autorin. Sprache: Deutsch/Englisch
Performing the Curatorial
The curatorial includes the post production artistic practices that bring together within a particular time and space related framework disparate images, objects, as well as other material and immaterial phenomena. In its performative aspects that seek to challenge the status quo, the curatorial also includes elements of choreography, orchestration and administrative logistics. Edited by director and writer Maria Lind, this book brings together a diverse group of curators, artists, art historians, educators and thinkers, all of whom reflect on the curatorial motives, tendencies and tactics, pitfalls and exegeses in translating and thus performing cultural heritage. Contributors include Doug Ashford, Beatrice von Bismarck and Eungie Joo.
History and Context in Comparative Public Policy
Douglas E. Ashford joins a growing number of scholars who have questioned the behavioralist assumptions of much policy science. The essays in this volume show why policy analysis cannot be confined to prevailing methods of social science. Policy-making behavior involves historical, contextual, and philosophical factors that also raise critical questions about the concepts and theory of the discipline. Ashford asks difficult questions about the contextual, conjunctural, and unintentional circumstances that affect actual decision-making. His bridging essays summarize opposing viewpoints and conflicting interpretations to help form a new agenda for comparative policy analysis.
Art for the Future
A collective history of the 1980s anti-imperialist campaign In the early 1980s, a group of artists, writers and activists came together in New York City to form Artists Call Against US Intervention in Central America, a creative campaign that mobilized nationwide in an effort to bring attention to the US government's violent involvement in Latin American nations such as Nicaragua and El Salvador. Together the group staged over 200 exhibitions, concerts and other public events in a single year, raising awareness and funds for those disenfranchised by such political crises. Art for the Future illuminates the history of Artists Call with archival pieces and newly commissioned work in the spirit...
Writings and Conversations
Artist, teacher and writer Doug Ashford (born 1958) is well known for his innovative work with the New York artist collective Group Material, which was founded in 1983 and operated until 1996. Group Material (whose other members included Julie Ault, Patrick Brennan, Beth Jaker, Mundy McLaughlin, Marybeth Nelson, Tim Rollins and Peter Szypula) pioneered forms of installation and curatorial approaches, and engaged issues around participation and historical representation. Since that time, Ashford has gone on to make paintings, write, and produce other cross-disciplinary projects. He has also been influential as a teacher, having taught design, sculpture, and theory at The Cooper Union, New York, since 1989. This publication--the first collection of his writings and conversations--represents one of the many spaces Ashford's work occupies, and attempts to encompass the evolution of the artist's thinking over the past 25 years.
CCS Readers: Perspectives on Art and Culture
Encounters with art engage various conditions of interiority—whether through psychic spaces or specific physical environments, such as museums and private residences. The exhibition “If you lived here, you'd be home by now,” presented at the Hessel Museum of Art, CCS Bard, in 2011, was the catalyst for the current volume, providing a paradigmatic case study for probing issues of the personal and subjective within realms of the sociological and the cultural. Through diverse discursive modes—commissioned essays, conversations and talks, historical writings, and artistic projects—this anthology, the first CCS Readers volume, examines the poetics and politics of interior experience wit...
