Towards Remediation of Indonesian New Fine Arts

Modern Indonesian painting mainly developed from the situation of the Dutch East Indies and Mooi-Indie art that was dominant at that time. The independence of the Republic of Indonesia became a very important milestone in the development of modern Indonesian painting. This is inseparable from the occurrence of a high dynamics and change through various political regimes in power starting from the leadership of Sukarno, Suharto and subsequent presidents. Each of these political regimes also played an important role in the development of modern art that occurred so as to bring out its own characteristics. Until the early 1990s, talking about art was something that seemed synonymous with painting. Although works of art with a combination of mediums have been included in exhibitions since the 1970s, but works in the form of paintings are still very dominant, even in some writings on art the imaginary boundary between painting and other art is discussed explicitly, but the term "Painting" is usually interchangeable with the term "fine art". The development of art that has become increasingly hybrid has helped to shape the climate and new audience, affirming real ideas that are at odds with painting that has already been established. Being different from established art knowledge, hybrid art agents become newcomers who find a place in the struggle in the realm of Indonesian art. Western characters which are an important consideration for painters become subject to change in the fourth phase. This change is caused by a variety of things, including the emphasis on the use of traditional forms, symbolic and decorative, because as a reaction to the political situation. Since 1942-1965, Indonesians have produced more figurative art. The pioneers in this field are artists who when abroad are like in the United States, Europe, and Japan already acquainted with traditional non-Western art in the arena of modern and international circuits.

The Jesuits and the Globalization of the Renaissance

Following a brief discussion of comparative and entangled history, and of the extension of studies of the Renaissance to the world beyond Europe, this article focusses on the Jesuits as carriers of the ideas and forms of the European Renaissance to their mission stations in Asia and the Americas. In their attempts to adapt or ‘accommodate’ Christianity to the cultures of the peoples that they were attempting to convert, Jesuit missionaries made use of Renaissance humanism, rhetoric, grammar and the concern with manners and customs that was later known as ethnography. The missionaries also made use of art and architecture in the Renaissance style to reinforce the Christian message. Their use of local craftsmen had the unintended consequence of introducing new elements into this western style, producing a hybrid art. However, without wanting it or even knowing it, the Jesuits prepared the way for the later reception of western art in India, China and Japan.

Breaching the Document/Artwork Divide

Over the past century, artists around the globe increasingly have turned to hybrid art practices, incorporating elements of action with static forms. Looking at a variety of works by contemporary artists, this article reviews the institutional factors that affect the cataloging of hybrid artwork, from the structure of collecting departments to the theories behind database management. Two standards for the management of cultural databases—FRBR and CDWA—are explored for potential non-hierarchical approaches to registration and records.

Свидетельство будущего: цифровой поворот в философии медиа и гибридном искусстве

The article provides an overview of several academic disciplines, such as the philosophy of media, theory of art, and visual studies for the analysis of transformation of visual knowledge and image in the digital era. The views of researchers are presented with attention to three largest traditions in the philosophy of media and visual studies — Anglo-Saxon, Russian, and German. During the review, three basic theses are proposed: 1) digital ontologies are close to “flat ontologies” in basic principles of ontology, where the most important is modularity, which cannot be reduced to either hardware or software; 2) the influence of digital era is reflected in the hybrid art, as a result of incorporate high technology and art; 3) the result of digital revolution can be considered as the distinction between analog and digital media. In this case, a new type of digital object (virtual) is understood as the difference between a copy and original work, a new variation of materiality.The prospects for further research on the role of digital objects and hybrid art are as follows: — One of the tasks is a critical analysis of the ontology of a digital object with attention to image productionin the context of postmodern art studies and philosophy; — The second task may be to study the works of new media with attention to the transformation of their institutional relationships, the role of Museum archives, and exhibition practices.

Literatura — film — teatr. Praktyki intermedialne w spektaklach biograficznych. Studium przypadku

The starting point of these considerations in the form of a case study are two issues: intermediality as a distinguishing mark of contemporary hybrid art forms and numerous references to famous films in the latest Polish theatre. The article concerns the performance Between the mouth and the edge of the cup (directed by Remigiusz Brzyk, Zaglebie Theatre in Sosnowiec, 17.05.2019). This performance, inspired by the biography of Maria Rodziewiczowna, is an example of the corelation of various media and an autothematic show whose theme is the writer's biography, popular novel, film and their reception.

Ricardo Lorenz: A Post-Colonial/Modern Latin(o) American Composer

European art music was brought into the Euro-baptized American continent by the Spaniards and Portuguese as an art discipline that supported the conversion to Catholicism, and, in general, its colonization. Nevertheless, Latin American composers—using agency, creativity and the process of transculturation—appropriated and transformed this music tradition to produce their innovative and hybrid art music works according to their culture and history. The article examines a selection of composer Ricardo Lorenz (Venezuela, 1961) musical works, philosophy, and artistic persona. In order to understand how and why postcolonial/modern theories opened up new paths for Lorenz’ musical works, this article introduces Ricardo Lorenz as composer and cultural agent related to Latin American and Latino communities in the United States with his positions of Interim Director of the Latin American Music Center at Indiana University (1987-1992), Chicago Symphony Orchestra Composer-in-Residence, Armonia Musicians Residency Program (1998-2002) and Latin IS American (2013-?) at Michigan State University’s College of Music. Then it discusses some of the ideas, such as the cultural monopoly of constructing an art music canon; building a racial/cultural division of the “Self” and the “Others,” the global music industry’s imposition of marketing tastes and distribution channels, and the representation of Latin American art music works and composers as exotics, within Lorenz text “Voices in Limbo: Identity, Representation and Realities of Latin American Composers” (1999). This methodology prepares us to engage with a conceptual analysis of two works by Lorenz—Mambozart for piano (1995) and the Pataruco Concerto for maracas and orchestra (1999)—to demonstrate Lorenz’s musical language and aesthetic, which reflects his fluency in cultural diversity and political philosophy in addition to reminding us what the process of transculturation stands for in Western art music composition and sounds.

Hybrid art: Towards a new scepticism

Abstract In Hybrid artwork, whereby the digital and the real are mixed, the artist/creator has to additionally manage interaction. Interaction is seen as an added dimension to narration: the art piece turns from being a means towards a narration (or an understanding) to a path towards an experience. It is argued that strong metaphysical concepts give place to new more fragmented ones. This nihilism and fragmentation can be seen as a cause of concern but also as an opportunity.

The Features of Audiovisual Structure in Films with Jazz and Pre-jazz Music

The purpose of this research is to consider the way of interaction between jazz and pre-jazzy music and screen for birth of new features and meanings, as well as to analyze the audiovisual structure in terms of jazzy expressive means. As time arts, music and cinema are closely related due to the fact that musical composition and film exist for a clearly period of time. Therefore, similar processes may arise on the basis of compositional patterns and artistic means, which generate an active exchange for achieving a new quality and the birth of unique phenomenon. Since modern art shows that different types of art today are aimed at mutual interaction and the creation of new combined forms, and cinema itself is one such a hybrid art, this interaction does not go unnoticed for those types of art that are involved in multi-artistic forms. No wonder different directions of music, styles and spheres of musical art affect the expressive structure of various movie genres. Among them films with jazz music occupy a special place having their own system of interaction between the two arts. This interchange is focused in such aspects as timbre heterogeneity as a reason for vividness of the plot lines and narrative variability, the ratio of improvisation and composition as two opposite beginnings in jazz and films involving jazz, compositional and structural principles of jazz as a method of dramatic narrative in films with jazz, the language and expressive means of jazz and their interaction with dramatic narrative in films and the influence of jazz on genre formation in cinema.

“Debajo de la mierda”: The Subversive Dialogue Between Nicanor Parra and David Aniñir

This article explores the common quest of ecological preservation and physical continuity in the poetry of Nicanor Parra and David Aniñir Guiltraro. Both poets employ antipoetic strategies to explore the personal and social crises that are the themes of much of their work. Aniñir's Mapurbe aesthetic is a hybrid art form that simultaneously presents itself as a continuation and a rupture with traditional Mapuche literary forms, but it also is a testament to Aniñir's own commitment to the creation of a new poetics that transcends any grand narrative in keeping with Parra's antipoetic mission. Scatological and sexual imagery are often used in the deconstruction of language and societal institutions to emphasize the importance of spiritual freedom. The article concludes that the call for direct action in both poets' work stems from a desire to contest consumerist tendencies driven by the capitalist project in Chile. Reconnecting the physical with the spiritual outside the bounds of literary convention and social order, counters understandings of the world that have been heavily influenced by the Enlightenment.

Interstitial Artifactuality: Inventing New Realisms through the Conceptual Hybridization of Art, Design, Genres and Media

Contemporary art is characterised by complexities and innovativeness, as artists continue to interrogate genre boundaries, creating new epistemologies and hybrid art that exists in-between and outside the parameters of established genres. This paper analysed the use of art in ‘INTERSTICE 2016', to interrogate the intersections between primitivism and modernity; aesthetic appeal and repulsion, crafted forms and the readymade; detritus objects and the treasured; art and design; two dimension and three dimension; as well as the boundaries between femininity and power, as a critical framework for redefining/destabilizing established aesthetic constructs. Using discourse analysis and artistic methodology, the themes, materiality, styles and curating of the works on display, were subjected to an in-depth analysis. The paper concludes that the interrogation of intervening spaces between varying aesthetic idioms and genres, results in the creation of new approaches to realism that deconstruct ideological and cultural subjectivities and instigate new dialogues across periods and genres.

Sedentary lifestyle: Fat queer craft

ABSTRACTThis hybrid analytic reflection and art piece uses practice-based research methods to explore the potential of art production in relation to temporality, fat, and visuality. The resulting drawings, needlepoints, and paintings are contextualized with artist notes alongside queer and fat theories to articulate when and how fat is seen, felt, and known. The research question for this project is the following: What do we learn from fat queer craft as a process of reading and making representations of fatness by, for, and about folks who identify as fat? Leveraging the fat body’s association with slowness, the artistic and narrative work demonstrate how time, corporeality, adipose tissue, affect, and context mediated through an academic-activist-artist lens can make fat known in unusual ways.
