Mona Hatoum de Guy Brett

Mona Hatoum

Autor Guy Brett, Michael Archer, Catherine Zegher
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 apr 1997

În acest volum publicat de Phaidon Press, descoperim o analiză riguroasă a parcursului artistic al Monei Hatoum, o figură centrală a artei contemporane care explorează tensiunea dintre estetica minimalistă și temele viscerale ale exilului. Structura monografiei este concepută pentru a oferi o perspectivă multidimensională: succesiunea de eseuri critice, dialoguri directe cu artista și note personale permite o înțelegere profundă a modului în care Mona Hatoum transformă mobilierul domestic sau instituțional în obiecte cu o încărcătură amenințătoare. Notăm cu interes varietatea materialului vizual, cele 130 de ilustrații documentând tranziția de la performance-urile radicale din anii '70 la instalațiile complexe care chestionează identitatea și apartenența. Considerăm că forța acestui titlu rezidă în capacitatea de a contextualiza opera artistei nu doar prin prisma istoriei artei, ci și prin dialogul cu intelectuali precum Edward Said. Profesorii și cercetătorii care utilizează Artists in Exile de Frauke V. Josenhans vor aprecia în mod deosebit acest volum, deoarece oferă un studiu de caz aprofundat asupra modului în care trauma deplasării forțate devine un motor pentru ingeniozitate artistică. Spre deosebire de panoramele largi asupra fenomenului migrației, lucrarea de față se concentrează pe micro-politica corpului, oferind detalii tehnice și conceptuale despre lucrări iconice precum 'The Light at the End' sau 'Corps Etranger'. Este o resursă esențială pentru cei care studiază relația dintre artă, politică și spațiul geografic.

Recenzii

'This valuable retrospective demonstrates the sense of alienation her work intends to create, and reinforces her artistic statements with essays from cultural commentators, including brilliant fellow-Palestinian Edward Said.' (Big Issue) 'Uncomfortable, compelling and often unexpectedly beautiful.' (World of Interiors) 'The boldest, best executed, and most far-reaching publishing project devoted to contemporary art. These books will revolutionize the way contemporary art is presented and written about.' (Artforum) 'The combination of intelligent analysis, personal insight, useful facts and plentiful pictures is a superb format invaluable for specialists but also interesting for casual readers, it makes these books a must for the library of anyone who cares about contemporary art.' (Time Out) 'A unique series of informative monographs on individual artists.' (The Sunday Times) 'Gives the reader the impression of a personal encounter with the artists. Apart from the writing which is lucid and illuminating, it is undoubtedly the wealth of lavish illustrations which makes looking at these books a satisfying entertainment.' (The Art Book)

Descriere scurtă

An exploration of the artist's powerful evocations of statelessness, otherness and denial.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Born in the Lebanon, Palestinian artist Mona Hatoum was exiled to London, where she has lived and worked since the mid 1970s and where, in 1995, she was nominated for the prestigious Turner Prize. Through performance, video, sculpture and installation she creates architectonic spaces which relate to the body, language and the condition of exile. One of her most spellbinding and best known works is a video installation titled Corps etranger, where the spectator enters a small pavilion and takes a visual journey through all the orifices of the artist's body. Such works combine states of emotion and longing with the formal simplicity of Minimalism, creating powerful evocations of displacement, denial and otherness. Hatoum's many international exhibitions include the Centre Georges Pompidou, in Paris (1994); her work tours extensively to museums throughout the United States in 1997. The distinguished British critic Guy Brett, explores key themes around a sense of place, the body and communication which emerge from Hatoum's range of work. The artist describes a chronology of practice in conversation with Michael Archer, writer, curator and co-founder of London's Audio Arts sound archive. Catherine de Zegher makes a complex and provocative analysis of Recollection, a work she commissioned for a sixteenth-century beguinage. Hatoum has chosen a text by the influential Palestinian author Edward Said as well as a statement from the noted Italian post-war sculptor and performance artist, Piero Manzoni. The book also includes Hatoum's own notes, statements and previous interviews.

Descriere

Mona Hatoum creates events, videos, sculptures and installations that relate to the body, to language and to the condition of exile. Her most famous work Corps Etranger, first shown at the Tate Gallery when she was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1995, takes the viewer on a journey through the inner passages of the artist's body. Her audience is thrown into a dimension in which anything is possible, as in The Light at the End, which lures viewers down a long tunnel towards a light that will literally burn them. While her video work is often visceral and emotive, her sculptures and environments are ultra cool and minimal in their aesthetic. They often mimic domestic or institutional furniture, yet their designs and materials have a threatening edge. Exquisitely beautiful, Hatoum's works are at the same time powerful evocations of statelessness, anxiety, denial and otherness. Since Hatoum was exiled to London, where she has lived and worked since the 1970s, she has exhibited her work around the world, including the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Venice Biennale. This book surveys all her work, ranging from early performances, through to her videos, objects and full-scale environments. The distinguished art critic Guy Brett, author of Through Our Own Eyes: Popular Art and Modern History (1986), explores key themes around a sense of place, the body and communication that emerge from Hatoum's range of work. The artist describes a chronology of practice in conversation with Michael Archer, writer, curator and co-founder of London's Audio Arts sound archive. Director of the Kanaal Art Foundation Catherine de Zegher makes a complex and provocative analysis of Recollection, a work she commissioned for a sixteenth-century beguinage. Hatoum has chosen a text by the influential Palestinian author Edward Said as well as a statement from the noted Italian post-war sculptor and performance artist Piero Manzoni. The book also includes Hatoum's own notes, statements and interviews.
