Ihren eigenen Körper als Rohmaterial einsetzend, dekonstruiertdie französische Künstlerin ORLAN die traditionelleIkonografie des Weiblichen. In den 1990er-Jahren erregteORLAN mit den an ihrem Körper vorgenommenen chirurgischenOperations-Performances großes Aufsehen. IhrFrühwerk ist weniger bekannt: Bereits 1964, mit 17 Jahren,gebiert sie ihr künstlerisches Selbst. Seitdem erschafft siesich immer wieder neu. Ihr Körper wird zugleich Subjektund Objekt, ironisch und provokativ spielt sie mit Identität.Diese Publikation fächert die gesamten sechs Jahrzehntevon ORLANs Werk auf und beleuchtet besonders ihrefrühen Performances. Zu ihren jüngsten Neuerschaffungengehört der Roboter ORLAN-OÏDE, und mit Hilfe einerAugmented Reality App steigen gar ORLAN-Avatare ausdem farbenprächtigen Buch heraus und werden lebendig.Dass der Körper politisch ist, zeigt sich in all ihren Arbeiten:1989 verwandelt sie Gustave Courbets Bild L'originedu monde in L'origine de la guerre, indem sie die Vulvadurch den Phallus ersetzt. Das Statement büßt nicht anAktualität ein.Die französische Künstlerin ORLAN (*1947, Saint-Étienne) ist eine der bedeutendsten Vertreterinnen der Feministischen Avantgarde, der Performance-Kunst und Begründerin L'Art Charnel (der Fleischeskunst). ORLAN setzt seit sechs Jahrzehnten ihren eigenen Körper als künstlerisches Material ein. Sie lebt und arbeitet in Paris.

Georg Baselitz enters a dialogue with the Old Masters - invited by Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, the acclaimed German painter and sculptor engages in a visual conversation. Baselitz himself curated this selection of works, focusing exclusively on nude painting. Both the exhibition and the catalogue revolve around this elemental human state, and its fundamental role in European art.From the beginning of his career, Baselitz's work has been informed by a pronounced awareness of art history, above all he was inspired by Mannerism's break with classical rules. Insights into the history of nude painting, as well into the topicality of painting itself, emerge from this encounter of Baselitz's works with historical paintings of an idealized beauty from Kunsthistorisches Museum. The carefully chosen juxtapositions open up a space in which one can reflect and experience the essence of painting anew.GEORG BASELITZ (*1938, Deutschbaselitz) is without a doubt one of the most influential painters and sculptors of our time. His work eludes easy categorization, but has continuously returned to his search for a new approach to updating classic figurative painting. In a celebrated turning point in 1969, he literally turned his paintings upside down and thereby managed to change the public's viewing habits, and to sharpen their perceptions.

Directly addressing the underrepresentation of Black composers in core music curricula, Expanding the Canon: Black Composers in the Music Theory Classroom aims to both demonstrate why diversification is badly needed and help faculty expand their teaching with practical, classroom-oriented lesson plans that focus on teaching music theory with music by Black composers.This collection of 21 chapters is loosely arranged to resemble a typical music theory curriculum, with topics progressing from basic to advanced and moving from fundamentals, diatonic harmony, and chromatic harmony to form, popular music, and music of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Some chapters focus on segments of the traditional music theory sequence, while others consider a single style or composer. Contributors address both methods to incorporate the music of Black composers into familiar topics, and ways to rethink and expand the purview of the music theory curriculum. A foreword by Philip Ewell and an introductory narrative by Teresa L. Reed describing her experiences as an African American student of music set the volume in wider context.Incorporating a wide range of examples by composers across classical, jazz, and popular genres, this book helps bring the rich and varied body of music by Black composers into the core of music theory pedagogy and offers a vital resource for all faculty teaching music theory and analysis.

On the occasion of its 60-year anniversary, CIMAM, the International Committee for Museums and Collections of Modern Art, its directors, and curators publish Museums from the Inside. From Suzanne Pagé and Rudi Fuchs, to David Elliott, Toshio Hara, Maria de Corral, Ken Lum to Manolo Borja-Villel and Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, this publication contains more than twenty interviews giving an insider's look at the 60 years in which modern art changed to post-modern art, and the term contemporary art, in turn, began to look almost obsolete.Following a historical introduction, looking back at fierce debates and controversies, a selection of important texts written since 2005 on decolonization, on Arte Útil, and on indigenous art gives insight into more recent fields of research.

Als autodidaktische Künstlerin und angestellte Büroleiterin in Ost-Berlin nutzte Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt ihre Schreibmaschine, um Buchstaben und Zeichen zu Grafiken zwischen Konkreter Poesie, Grafikdesign und Konzeptkunst zu verdichten. Ihre ins Abstrakte tendierenden sprachlichen Erkundungen, die sie insbesondere in den 1980er-Jahren zu Collagen erweiterte, beruhen oft auf Mehrdeutigkeiten.Nichts Neues erscheint anlässlich der großen Retrospektive im MINSK Kunsthaus in Potsdam. In thematischen Episoden werden ihre Typewritings, Druckgrafiken, Collagen und Gemälde beleuchtet. Zwar hörte Wolf-Rehfeldt nach dem Fall der Mauer auf, künstlerisch zu arbeiten, doch ihre Kunst hat nichts an Aktualität eingebüßt. Im Gegenteil: Auf poetische, eigenwillige und oft humorvolle Weise setzte sich die nonkonformistische Künstlerin mit Themen wie Naturschutz, geistiger Freiheit, Gemeinschaft und Kommunikation auseinander. In ihrem mal subtilen, mal plakativeren Spiel mit Wörtern, Bedeutungen und Formen offenbart sich bis heute immer wieder Unerwartetes.RUTH WOLF-REHFELDT (*1932, Wurzen, Sachsen) kam 1950 nach Berlin. Seit den 1960er-Jahren schuf sie als Autodidaktin Gemälde, Pastelle, Zeichnungen und ab etwa 1970 sogenannte Typewritings. Aus der DDR heraus beteiligte sie sich aktiv am internationalen Mail-Art-Programm. Erst in den vergangenen Jahren erlebt sie eine Wiederentdeckung - 2017 war sie mit ihren Typewritings Newcomerin und zugleich der älteste Star der documenta 14.

The Bloomsbury Handbook of Popular Music Policy is the first thorough analysis of how policy frames the behavior of audiences, industries, and governments in the production and consumption of popular music. Covering a range of industrial and national contexts, this collection assesses how music policy has become an important arm of government, and a contentious arena of global debate across areas of cultural trade, intellectual property, and mediacultural content. It brings together a diverse range of researchers to reveal how histories of music policy development continue to inform contemporary policy and industry practice. The Handbook maps individual nation case studies with detailed assessment of music industry sectors. Drawing on international experts, the volume offers insight into global debates about popular music within broader social, economic, and geopolitical contexts.
