Abstract

Reclining Fragments, Ritsart Gobyn’s second book is the sequel to In Between and, as if by some miracle, thus completes the sentence: ‘In Between Reclining Fragments’. Where In Between still hesitated between indicating place or time, the complete sentence ‘In Between Reclining Fragments’ seems to indicate a place: somewhere between reclining fragments. But in the conversation between Ritsart and Maarten Inghels – the author of the text accompanying the book – it is again emphatically about time: “‘As you move closer and distance yourself again, a passage of time is created,’ you said. ‘That back-and-forth movement of your perception makes it interesting.’” The book forms the second volume on the artist’s work and contains almost all the works the artist made from late 2020 to mid-2023, including the room views of ‘Prologue’, the exhibition at PLUS-ONE gallery, where the book will be introduced. Consistently, Ritsart continues to build an evocative and tactile oeuvre in which he increasingly challenges the viewer’s perception and causes the gaze to slow down. More than in the first book – with works from 2017 to 2020 – the artist incorporates fragments/citations of other artists into his paintings, raising the question of what motivations preceded that choice. Does Ritsart neutralise the works of grandmasters by painting them alongside tape, paper scraps and dirty footprints, or does he instead pay homage to his pictorial heroes?Is there a truth to be found here, somewhere among the backward sloping scraps?

Abstract

Innovantes et provocantes, les sculptures, peintures et installations emblématiques de Judy Chicago ont permis de rapprocher le féminisme de l'art au cours des années 1960, 70 et au-delà. En utilisant des images inspirées du corps féminin et des références à des personnages féminins historiques, Chicago a forgé un nouveau langage visuel axé sur les femmes qui continue d'influencer l'esthétique de l'art féministe aujourd'hui. Ce livre retrace la carrière de Chicago depuis son apparition sur la scène artistique de Los Angeles dans les années 1960 jusqu'à son travail abouti dans les années 1990. Présentant des illustrations de six œuvres distinctes, ce livre comprend le chef-d'œuvre de Chicago, le dîner, ainsi que d'autres œuvres moins connues. Avec des essais informatifs qui situent l'œuvre de Chicago dans le contexte de l'art contemporain californien du sud et de l'érudition qui reflète le travail actuel de Chicago, ce livre complet offre un regard à couper le souffle sur l'une des figures par excellence de l'art féministe américain. (d'après l'éditeur). Groundbreaking and provocative, Judy Chicago’s iconic sculptures, paintings, and installations helped bridge the gap between feminism and art during the 1960s, 70s, and beyond. Using imagery inspired by the female body and references to historical female figures, Chicago forged a new, women-focused visual language that continues to influence the aesthetics of feminist art today. This book traces Chicago’s career from her emergence on the Los Angeles art scene in the 1960s through her mature work in the 1990s. Featuring illustrations of six distinct bodies of works, this book includes Chicago’s masterpiece The Dinner Party as well as other lesser-known works. With informative essays that situate Chicago’s oeuvre in the context of contemporary Southern Californian art and scholarship that reflects Chicago’s current work, this comprehensive book provides a breathtaking look at one of the quintessential figures of American feminist art.
