Themes

Appropriation and re-enacting of art historical works

  • Address our engagement with artistic objects and aesthetic experience, and how this is affected by the digital technologies we take for granted today.
  • Effect or impact of digital media on our relationship with cultural artefacts and the history of art.
  • Re-enacting and referencing works from the history of the avant-garde and modernism at large, much in the manner of proposing a homage, while also distorting these works in the process.
  • This strategy is a way of reflecting on the ways the languages of digital media have altered – or can alter – our relationship and perception of history, particularly art historical timelines and pre-digital modern art.

Interventions:

  • Book intervention

Colour

  • A less methodic (less conceptually-driven) approach. Look at colour's status in modernist and historical works (the white cube notion, Kandinsky's pure universal language, etc); and within digital media.
  • The modernist discourse on colour can be juxtaposed with the code and data necessary to access these works through digital technologies.
  • Question the use and perception of digital colour, by analysing the RGB colour system (which is used, for example, as the standard gamut for Internet colours),

To set up a mock institution-like entity:

Institute for the Re-Apropriation of the Avant-Garde

  • The Institute for the Re-Apropriation of the Avant-Garde engages in the production of cultural objects. Its products are compromised mostly of re-enactments and re-appropiations of historical avant-garde works.
