Classification and qualification seem almost to be the enemy of artistic endeavour. Yet in The Natural History of vedovamazzei the curator Mirta d'Argenzio has produced an elliptical collation of the artists' ideas and hopes that offers a remarkable insight into a rarely defined world, that of vedovamazzei's creative process. Founded in 1990, vedovamazzei is the working name of the Italian artists Stella Scala and Simeone Crispino, born in Naples in 1964 and 1962. Their work has been exhibited in national galleries and museums worldwide. D'Argenzio has classified their notes, sketches and doodles into an almost scientific order, from their larval forms through the pupae to the first spread of wings. It is a dazzling display.

Echoes in the Darkness

  • Categories: Art

In the Greek port of Piraeus, there is a small tramp steamer moored at the dock. The Ionion's cargo decks are laden with the works of the Italian artist Jannis Kounellis, born in Piraeus in 1936. The ship, and its manifest, are a metaphor for the high priest of Arte Povera, the art movement founded in Italy in the late 1960s.

Global Revolutionary Aesthetics and Politics after Paris ‘68

The year 2018 marked the fiftieth anniversary of May ’68, a startling, by now almost mythic event which combined seriousness, courage, humor and theatrics. The contributions of this volume—based on papers presented the conference Does “la lutte continue”? The Global Afterlife of May ’68 at Florida State University in March 2019—explore the ramifications of that springtime protest in the contemporary world. What has widely become known as the movement of ‘68 consisted, in fact, of many synchronous movements in different nations that promoted a great variety of political, social, and cultural agendas. While it is impossible to write a global history of ’68, this volume presents...

Vitrines and glass cabinets are familiar apparatuses that have in large part defined modern modes of display and visibility, both within and beyond the museum. They separate objects from their contexts, group them with other objects, both similar and dissimilar, and often serve to reinforce their intrinsic or aesthetic values. The vitrine has much in common with the picture frame, the plinth and the gallery, but it has not yet received the kind of detailed art historical and theoretical discussion that has been brought to these other modes of formal display. The twelve contributions to this volume examine some of the points of origin of the vitrine and the various relations it brokers with s...
