Abstract

A new vision for activist curatorial practice. In Pidginization as Curatorial Method: Messing with Languages and Praxes, renowned curator and director Bonaventure Soh Bejeng Ndikung proposes Pidgin languages as expressions of resistance to settler colonialism and pidginization as a way to approach curating (and the world), creating new spaces for encounter, knowledge, and pluralities. Deftly deploying the thinking, writing, and rhythmic beat of musicians, philosophers, linguists, poets, and novelists, Ndikung offers a new vision for activist curatorial practice and beyond.

Abstract

Ces 18 textes de référence traduits en français d'artistes, historiens d'art, chercheurs et commissaires d'exposition ont nourri la pensée critique et théorique dans le champ de l'art depuis trente ans. Ils abordent les thématiques de la globalisation, du postcolonialisme et du postcommunisme, des modernismes, de l'universalisme et de l'eurocentrisme. Rassemblés dans ce volume par Christine Macel, ils redessinent le paysage intellectuel, académique et institutionnel de l'art dans un contexte globalisé.

Abstract

Ce livre correspond au catalogue de la 13e édition des Rencontres de Bamako – Biennale africaine de la photographie, sur les thèmes de la multiplicité, de la différence, du devenir et du patrimoine. Dans ce « monde globalisé », le récit dominant est précisément celui de la singularité – de l'universalisme, des identités uniques, des cultures singulières, des systèmes politiques isolés. Ce récit s'accompagne toutefois d'un sentiment illusoire de stabilité et de stase ; les identités semblent inaltérables, les cultures immuables, les systèmes politiques mal à l'aise face au changement. Ainsi, en soutenant ce discours omniprésent, nous avons substantiellement perdu de vue la multiplicité, la fragmentation, le processus et le changement, et surtout distillé les notions complexes d'humanité associées à des récits tout aussi complexes.

Abstract

A panorama of the multifaceted and transversal production of Sedje Hémon, with fifteen essays. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Sedje Hémon. Imran Mir. Abdias Nascimento. Abstracting Parables", as part of the international Arnhem based art manifestation sonsbeek20→24, at Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in 2022. Dutch-Jewish painter and composer Sedje Hémon's (born Sedje Frank, 1923-2011) artistic practice was a deep deliberation on natural sciences, as well as an exploration of other ways of knowing. Her work was strongly influenced by her lived experience as a Shoah survivor and a member of the resistance movement. Educated as a violinist, incarceration during WWII left Hémon physically unable to play, upon which she turned her attention to painting—without ever abandoning music. During the 1950s and 1960s, she developed an intricate method for translating her paintings into musical scores. Hémon described her paintings as musical compositions, and their abstract forms are to be read as such—in relation to musical parameters such as duration, pitch, and timbre. Her visual works can actually be performed musically according to the system that she herself developed. Defiantly, Hémon worked to show the common origin and intersectionality of all arts and sciences, culminating in the development of a theory for the "integration of the arts."

Abstract

A survey of Imran Mir's abstract and contemplative work, with fifteen essays. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Sedje Hémon. Imran Mir. Abdias Nascimento. Abstracting Parables", as part of the international Arnhem based art manifestation sonsbeek20→24, at Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in 2022. Pakistani artist, sculptor, and designer Imran Mir's (1950-2014) oeuvre can be interpreted as a constant refusal to provide comprehensive elaboration beyond what one experiences. The act of contemplation is a guiding principle to interpreting Imran Mir's work, an approach that reverberates into a practice that grew out of conversations with a community of artists, activists, poets, relatives, and other thinkers in Karachi. Non-figurative, non-representational, geometrical and very bold, Imran Mir's works can be read as theorems and positions on multiple modernisms and abstractions. Without being a critique or a response, he played with the rules, bypassing and expanding them to other realms to explore ways of being, ways of knowing time and space outside of the confinements of the West.

Abstract

A survey of the pictorial work of the Afro-Brazilian artist, writer and activist, with fifteen essays. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Sedje Hémon. Imran Mir. Abdias Nascimento. Abstracting Parables", as part of the international Arnhem based art manifestation sonsbeek20→24, at Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in 2022. The life and work of Afro-Brazilian painter, poet, essayist, dramatist, activist, and member of Parliament Abdias Nascimento (1914-2011) is a testament to his active commitment to Black expression and solidarity, both artistically and politically. Above all, Nascimento was a Pan-African activist. He organized the National Convention of Brazilian Blacks (1946) and the 1st Congress of Brazilian Blacks four years later. During the same period, he founded the Black Experimental Theater (1944) and the Black Arts Museum project (1950), both in Rio de Janeiro. While curating the latter, he began to develop his own creative work. In his art, Nascimento found another space for his research into the historiographies, political concerns, epistemologies, and teleologies of African peoples, both on the continent and in the diasporas. In his painting practice, which spans over four decades, he uses myths, concepts, and aphorisms from ancient Egypt, the Yoruba's, and the Ashanti's. Together, his body of work can be seen as a compendium of aesthetic, philosophical, and political discourses on Blackness and resistance, and resistance inBlackness. In terms of style, his paintings defy categorization as either figuration or abstraction, as the gods, the human, the geometric structures, the spiritualities, and cosmogonies that he depicts, or evokes, transcend any effort to categorize.
