ECLIPSE: ART IN A DARK AGE 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书
图书标签: 影像+映像 makers
Eclipse, a darkening of the sun, is a metaphor for the ambivalent feelings towards the abandonment of Enlightenment that we experience today. The Enlightenment has been criticised as an alibi for colonialism and yet many mourn the vanishing ideals which they consider worth defending. In the wake of 9/11, the intolerance from both extremes of a polarised political field curbs freedom of speech and thought. Nevertheless, the demand on art to be politically correct and not to offend any group does not appear to limit the imagination of artists.
The artists in this exhibition - including Lucas Ajemian, Michaël Borremans, Nathalie Djurberg, Ellen Gallagher, Tom McCarthy with INS – International Necronautical Society, Paul McCarthy, Mike Nelson, Anri Sala, Dana Schutz - insist on having the right to be “incorrect” and to use fiction’s licence to speculate and to experiment.
