Abstract

"We didn't think of our movies as underground or commercial or art or porn; they were a little of all of those, but ultimately they were just 'our kind of movie.'"--Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol was a remarkably prolific filmmaker, creating more than 100 movies and nearly 500 of the film portraits known as Screen Tests . And yet relatively little has been written about this body of work. Warhol withdrew his films from circulation in the early 1970s and it was only after his death in 1987 that they began to be restored and shown again. With Our Kind of Movie Douglas Crimp offers the first single-authored book about the full range of Andy Warhol's films in 40 years-- and the first since the films were put back into circulation.

In six essays, Crimp examines individual films, including Blow Job, Screen Test No. 2 and Warhol's cinematic masterpiece The Chelsea Girls (perhaps the most commercially successful avant-garde film of all time), as well as groups of films related thematically or otherwise-- films of seductions in confined places, films with scenarios by Ridiculous Theater playwright Ronald Tavel. Crimp argues that Warhol's films make visible new, queer forms of sociality. Crimp does not view these films as cinéma-vérité documents of Warhol's milieu, or as camera-abetted voyeurism, but rather as exemplifying Warhol's inventive cinema techniques, his collaborative working methods, and his superstars' unique capabilities. Thus, if Warhol makes visible new social relations, Crimp writes, that visibility is inextricable from his making a new kind of cinema. In Our Kind of Movie Crimp shows how Warhol's films allow us to see against the grain-- to see differently and to see a different world, a world of difference.

Abstract

Was bestimmt die Bedeutung eines Kunstwerkes ? Resultieren Inhalte aus der inneren Verfassung des Werkes selbst oder werden sie kontinuierlich konstruiert und verändert durch ein Äusseres, durch die Bedingungen der Präsentation, den Rahmen oder den Raum, die Institution oder die Kritik ? Und was geschieht, wenn Künstler diesen traditionellen Zuschreibungen dadurch zu widerstehen versuchen, dass sie genau diese Art der Kunstbetrachtung zum Gegenstand der Kunstpraxis machen ? Der Paradigmenwechsel vom autonomen Kunstobjekt der Moderne zur postmodernen Kritik der Institutionen, vom Kunstwerk zum Kontext Kunst ist der Gegenstand sowohl der Texte von Douglas Crimp als auch des Fotoessays von Louise Lawler.

Abstract

Douglas Crimp is the rare art critic whose work profoundly influenced a generation of artists. He is best known for his work with the Pictures Generationthe very name of which Crimp coined to define the work of artists like Robert Longo and Cindy Sherman who appropriated images from mass culture to carry out a subversive critique. But while his influence is widely recognized, we know little about Crimps own formative experiences before Pictures.&#13;&#13;Before Pictures tells the story of Crimps life as a young gay man and art critic in New York City during the late 1960s through the turbulent 1970s. Crimp participated in all of what made the city so stimulating in that vibrant decade. The details of his professional and personal life are interwoven with the particularly rich history of New York City at that time, producing a vivid portrait of both the critic and his adopted city. The book begins with his escape from his hometown in Idaho, and we quickly find Crimp writing criticism for ArtNews while working at the Guggenheimwhere, as a young curatorial assistant, he was one of the few to see Daniel Burens Peinture-Sculpture before it was removed amid cries of institutional censorship. We also travel to the Chelsea Hotel (where Crimp helped the down-on-his-luck couturier Charles James organize his papers) through to his days as a cinephile and balletomane to the founding of the art journal October, where he remained a central figure for many years. As he was developing his reputation as a critic, he was also partaking of the New York night life, from drugs and late nights alongside the Warhol crowd at the Maxs Kansas City to discos, roller-skating, and casual sex with famous (and not-so-famous) men. As AIDS began to ravage the closely linked art and gay communities, Crimp eventually turned his attention to activism dedicated to rethinking AIDS.&#13;&#13;Part biography and part cultural history, Before Pictures is a courageous account of an exceptional period in both Crimps life and the life of New York City. At the same time, it offers a deeply personal and engaging point of entry into important issues in contemporary art.

Abstract

On the Museum's Ruins presents Douglas Crimp's criticism of contemporary art, its institutions, and its politics alongside photographic works by the artist Louise Lawler to create a collaborative project that is itself an example of postmodern practice at its most provocative. Crimp elaborates the new paradigm of postmodernism through analyses of art practices broadly conceived, not only the practices of artists -- Robert Rauschenberg, Cindy Sherman, Marcel Broodthaers, Richard Serra, Sherrie Levine, and Robert Mapplethorpe -- but those of critics and curators, of international exhibitions, and of new or refurbished museums such as the Staatsgalerie in Stuttgart and the Martin-Gropius-Bau in Berlin.
