Abstract

The Robert Morris retrospective at the Centre Georges Pompidou in 1995 was not able to show Everything of the mobile, deliberately, contradictory work, in constant mutation, of this American artist. It is true that at the end of the 1990s, the French public was already far from totally ignorant of Morris's career, but the theoretician of Minimal Art and inventor of the Antiform still masked the existence of the inveterate experimenter. The Musée d'Art Contemporain has decided to do something about this incomplete perception of Robert Morris's work, by handing over to him an entire floor of the museum each summer for three years running (1998, 1999, 2000). This has allowed him to do what, to his eyes, is more important still than the coherence of his past work, namely to Continue to work.

Abstract

"Miroir noir ! Bel oxymoron..." Ainsi débute cette remarquable contribution à l'histoire de la culture visuelle occidentale. Dans cette première étude " panoramique " d'un instrument d'optique injustement oublié, Arnaud Maillet recadre notre compréhension historique de l'expérience visuelle et les diverses significations possibles du miroir noir en mettant cet objet ambigu en relation avec les notions de transparence, d'opacité et d'imagination. Si ce petit instrument d'optique, longtemps confondu avec d'autres, connut une popularité avérée à la fin du XVIIIe siècle dans l'Europe des amateurs de pittoresque, il fut rejeté au XIXe siècle puis totalement oublié (ou presque) de nos jours. Objet scientifique pour les savants, magique pour les occultistes, cultuel pour certaines civilisations, objet de recherches esthétiques pour les peintres et expérimentales pour les artistes contemporains, ce miroir est également indissociable du désir, de la mélancolie et de la mort. Il s'agit alors de comprendre que ces divers aspects du miroir noir bien souvent ne s'opposent pas, mais constituent plutôt l'unité homogène, cohérente et fondamentale de tout un pan de notre culture s'articulant autour de l'équation clair/obscur. De Claude Lorrain à Christian Boltanski en passant par Alberti, de Piles, Gilpin, Coleridge, Ruskin, Matisse ou Richter, Le miroir noir nous emmène de ses origines magiques et occultes jusque ses avatars actuels à travers une série de pratiques picturales et technologiques telles que la photographie, le cinéma et l'art contemporain. Traverser ce miroir sans craindre de s'abîmer dans le côté obscur nous confronte à une évidence : c'est dans l'aveuglement que se constitue le regard.

Abstract

"How can we tell the difference between a reflection and the real thing? How does a reflection betray its identity? Why is it that when we look at a mirror we can see either our reflection or the mirror but not both at the same time? How and when do we learn to recognise our own reflection? What does a reflective surface look like and how can we distinguish it from a non-reflective surface? Why is it that certain paintings may be turned upside down and still be visually acceptable? How are the various qualities of reflection represented in art - from the diffuse sheen of burnished copper to the realism of silvered glass?" "In this innovative book, published to accompany the exhibition Mirror Image at the National Gallery, London, Jonathan Miller discusses these puzzling questions and investigates the pictorial representation of reflection - 'sheen, shine, glimmer and gleam' - through a wonderfully varied selection of paintings and photographs, covering nine centuries, drawn from the National Gallery and other international collections."--Jacket.

Abstract

Reflectie als thema in het werk van hedendaagse kunstenaars. In Man in the Mirror worden actuele kunstwerken rond de thematiek van de gelijknamige song van Michael Jackson met elkaar geconfronteerd. De Vanhaerents Art Collection omvat honderden topwerken van internationaal toonaangevende hedendaagse kunstenaars. Ze werd opgericht door Walter Vanhaerents en is gehuisvest in een gerestaureerd pakhuis in het centrum van Brussel. In dit derde boek kiest de VAC reflectie als thema. Hoe gaan kunstenaars om met weerspiegeling en transformatie? Hoe gebruiken ze reflectie in hun kunst? Welke betekenissen en interpretaties geven ze aan dit intrigerende onderwerp? En hoe gaat de kijker ermee om.
