João Maria Gusmão: Massa Confusa
'Massa Confusa' is a combinatorial codex cataloguing João Maria Gusmão's recent photographical findings, featuring an accompanying text by the artist and faithful reproductions of such oeuvres. The objects of Massa Confusa's attention are Gusmão's personal inventory of traditional Japanese-inspired Chawan tea bowls by the ceramicist Victor Harris. For over half a millennium, such vessels have been integral to the Japanese tea ceremony, serving both as a tool for presenting aromatic beverages, and as a metonym for the ritual's moral geometry as a meditative worship of the imperfect. As such, each copy of Massa Confusa is, for all intents and purposes, unique! In the spirit of reckless invention, the artist and the designer Ana baliza have devised a semi-random system of signatures, where queer queries were folded in both directions and assembled in stochastic combinations. The book is published in collaboration with Pato Em Pequim (Lisboa), a platform for research, creation and production in contemporary art.
Celluloid
In the era of rapid and almost complete digitization of the moving image, EYE Filmmuseum draws attention to the special qualities of 16mm and 35mm celluloid film and the unique way in which this material is projected. EYE unites four artists (or artist duos) that incorporate, in multi-layered and complex and extraordinary films and installations, the peculiarities of celluloid and film equipment into their work. The richly illustrated publication Celluloid presents the work of Tacita Dean, João Maria Gusmão & Pedro Paiva, Rosa Barba and Luis Recorder & Sandra Gibson. Internationally renowned authors discuss the meaning of the use of analogue film in the oeuvre of the four artists in the context of the history of experimental film, analogue film in an era of abundant digital imagery, the magic of 16mm and 35mm film, and the film apparatus. Exhibition: EYE Filmmuseum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (17.09.-08.01.2017).
