The Light From Within
Endri Kosturi was born in Tirana, Albania, in 1980. When he was only 7 years old, one of his first large-scale painting, Spring, was shown at the National Art Gallery in Tirana. In 1990 his family moved to Italy where he later studied fine arts. Kosturi is earlier influenced by the masters of figurative painting, but ultimately developed his own evocative and conceptual abstract style. Endri is moved by the universal idea of Love manifesting an extraordinary sensitivity to colour. As the ubiquitous windows motif remains his signature theme in his work. Kosturi lives and works in London. He has exhibited in solo and collective shows in London, Paris, Rome, Milan and Trieste. The book has text both in English and Italian language.
After Criticism
It has recently become apparent that criticism has fallen on hard times. Either commodification is deemed to have killed it off, or it has become institutionally routine. This book explores contemporary approaches which have sought to renew criticism's energies in the wake of a 'theatrical turn' in recent visual arts practice, and the emergence of a 'performative' arts writing over the past decade or so. Issues addressed include the 'performing' of art's histories; the consequences for criticism of embracing boredom, distraction and other 'queer' forms of (in)attention; and the importance of exploring writerly process in responding to aesthetic experience. Bringing together newly commissioned work from the fields of art history, performance studies, and visual culture with the writings of contemporary artists, After Criticism provides a set of experimental essays which demonstrate how 'the critical' might live on as a vital and efficacious force within contemporary culture.
