Tony Oursler

  • Categories: Art

The intelligent irony that resonates through the video and projection installations of American artist Tony Oursler results from a subtle combination of sound, language and pop culture images. These elements are thoroughly explored in this monograph, the most extensive publication on Oursler and his work. His videos often employ a projected human face to create bizarre contemporary icons and fragmented narratives that speak to the dislocation caused by contemporary issues of sex, violence and power. Tony Oursler includes 180 illustrations from his video, sculpture and mixed-media works on paper, as well as an extensive selection of the artist's own writings. There are also two long conversations between Oursler and the artists Mike Kelley and Dan Graham, which testify to the long-lasting mutual appreciation and collaboration between them. This is a major new publication on the career of one of the most important American artists of the last two decades.

"Tony Oursler was born in 1957 in New York, where he lives and works. His family background included writers and painters, with a strong belief that content is more important than form, a prominent feature of his own life. The book looks at the creative career of this artist who has always distinguished himself for his ability to use new idioms from mass communications, from the first videotapes, produced at the age of just over twenty, to the unsettling, disturbing figurative works of the early nineties."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Poetics Project

In the late 1970s, while students at Cal Arts, Tony Oursler and Mike Kelley formed a band called first, polka Dot and the Spots, and finally, The Poetics. This little-known musical aggregation was proceeded perhaps only by The Weirdos (an early LA punk band with members from Cal Arts) as one of the first New Wave Art Rock bands of that period. Inspired by Laurie Anderson's class at Cal Arts, Kelley and Oursler's band was experimenting with ways to integrate visual arts with music. This limited edition package documents the brief life of The Poetics.

This book documents the visual elements of the 'The Influence of the Machine', the projections onto buildings, trees and smoke, but also the transcripts of the monologues that provided a haunting sound track to the images.

High

  • Categories: Art

In his most recent UK show High, Tony Oursler used both spaces of the Lisson Gallery to exhibit new installations and key earlier works. Oursler's practice explores a complex web of societal constraints and psychological dilemmas. The new body of work developed for this exhibition delves into the real/fantastic morass of obsessive desires and needs, or the 'reason' of the irrational. The new works in this show conjure these psycho-social fractures in tragicomic fashion and they follow the artist's signature practice of fusing sculptural forms with video. Other works on show will represent something of a departure, as Oursler experiments with more pictorial modes of video presentation. This catalogue features the transcription of an extensive conversation between the artist and David Rimanelli, with Jacqueline Humphries and Karolin Kober. Published on the occasion of the exhibition Tony Oursler: High at Lisson Gallery, London, September - October 2008.
