Immaterial Dispersal
Tuesday, September 7th, 2010
This looks like it could be an engaging panel discussion and it's happening tonight.
Organized and moderated by Nik Pence, Immaterial Dispersal will examine the critical function of immaterial art. This discussion will bring together artists and writers who use the internet to produce and distribute information. Exceeding locality, the following panelists use the internet as a tool, building communities that share converging interests and goals. By examining the contrasting practices, the panelists will discuss their projects and their approach to the immaterial.
The panel will feature Kari Altmann, Ethan Greenbaum, Gene McHugh, Luke Stettner, Brad Troemel and Lance Wakeling.

October - November 2010 C/O Berlin – Talents 2011
Wednesday, August 25th, 2010
C/O Berlin is seeking young photographers and art critics for their 2011 Talents series of exhibitions. The theme this year is Cinematic Thinking and applications will be accepted until December 31, 2010.
The Talents series of exhibitions is really a fantastic opportunity for an artist just getting started. If chosen, the artist will be featured in a solo exhibition at one of Europe's premiere photography institutions as well as have an accompanying catalogue published which includes an essay written by an art critic.
From the newsletter I received this morning:
"In 2011, the Talents series will focus on the theme of Cinematic Thinking. Engagement with the medium of film has become ever more central to photography in recent years. This can be seen in the increasing exploration of film production processes, experimentation with narrative structures, and references to film aesthetics and film myths. How can photography adapt film structures and simulaneously break them open? What strengths do still images have over moving pictures? Photography in the classical sense, with its conventional wall presentation, can be expanded through the utilization of projection and installation strategies, thereby creating new possibilities for reflecting on the medium of photography itself.
How do you apply? Photographers under the age of 35 can submit up to 15 samples of their work in print form – maximal size DIN A4, no originals. A short project description should accompany the photographs, as well as the application form that van be completed online on the C/O Berlin homepage. A fee of 20 Euros will be raised. Please note that art critics are welcome to submit samples of their work at any time."

Tessellations: creating narrative through visual conversation. A two-person dialogue by Wm M Harvey and Leah Beeferman. Summer Pop-Up Bookstore
Monday, August 9th, 2010
If you like books then you might want to stop by David Zwirner's First Annual Summer Pop-Up Bookstore, happening this week only. I stopped by to check it out and while I didn't find anything that I must have, there are some nice deals on hand, especially some uniquely signed books by Marcel Dzama.
From the press release:
David Zwirner is pleased to announce the launch of the gallery’s first annual summer Pop-Up Bookstore. For one week only—Monday, August 9 through Friday, August 13—there will be special offers on a selection of rare and out-of-print books, signed artist catalogues, DVDs, and more.
David Zwirner Pop-Up Bookstore will be open daily from 10am to 6pm with extended hours to 7:30 on Wednesday and Thursday. Kenneth Anger + Missoni

We all know that summer shows in New York City can be a real downer but this summer there are three ambitious artist curated exhibitions on view in three different locations around the country.
Closest to home but not in the city, there is Matthew Porter's Seven Summits exhibition on view through August 15th at Mount Tremper Arts in the Catskills.
Arthur Ou, Test Screen (Rincon I), 2010
From the press release:
"Seven Summits is a group photography exhibition featuring fourteen pieces by seven artists. Recalling the mountaineering challenge of climbing the highest peak on each of the seven continents, Seven Summits highlights the practice of artists whose adventuresome spirit leads them straight to the source of their subject matter, whether it be found inside the studio or across the country. Each artist is represented by two pieces—separated by wide geographical margins—that reframe the tradition of expedition photography within their independent creative visions."
Further away from the city, there is Bill Sullivan's New Genre Pictures on view at the Flanders Gallery in Raleigh, North Carolina through August 28th. The exhibition features the work of Lucas Blalock, Sam Falls, Thomas Hauser and Bill Sullivan.
Bill Sullivan, Courts #21 & 22 (Wimbeldon 1994), 2007
From an essay by Lauren Turner:
"In the ubiquity of the nefariously popular mixed media designation, how can disparate artworks currently be categorized? In what ways can one judge technological manipulation in a work as a marker of an artist’s skill? And are the genres of old still relevant to contemporary society? New Genre Pictures presents the works of four artists and their variations of the art world’s current medium darling, photography, to start the process of untangling some of these questions’ answers."
There is also a good write up of the show and some installation shots here.
For those of you in Los Angeles, Walead Beshty has curated what is probably the most ambitious summer group exhibition, Picture Industry (Goodbye To All That) at Regen Projects which is on view through August 21st.
The exhibition features a long list of people working with and/or around photography today: Tauba Auerbach, Thomas Barrow, Carol Bove, Troy Brauntuch, Tony Conrad, Abraham Cruzvillegas, De Rijke / De Rooij, Liz Deschenes, Isa Genzken, Wade Guyton, Robert Heinecken, Charline Von Heyl, Karen Kilimnik, Imi Knoebel, Michael Krebber, Glenn Ligon, Erlea Maneros-Zabala, Albert Oehlen, Manfred Pernice, Seth Price, Richard Prince, Josephine Pryde, R.H. Quaytman, Eileen Quinlan, Miljohn Ruperto, Michael Snow, Cosey Fanni Tutti, Kelley Walker, James Welling, Christopher Williams and Christopher Wool.
Eileen Quinlan, Everything moves, Everything Shimmers, 2010
From the press release written by Walead Beshty:
"In most Los Angeles social circles, when one speaks of the "industry" they are referring to the Entertainment Industry (a.k.a. the "Picture Industry"). Pictures have a knack for supplanting the concrete, sliding as though self-lubricating around the globe, like poltergeists, they haunt the world they represent like vague recollections, inhabiting concrete forms briefly until slipping off to another host, a billboard here, a magazine page there, creating momentary associations, and chance resonances. And what to make of the application of the term industry, with the heaviness of factories and smoke stacks encircling it, to the production of ephemeral pictures whose power is synonymous with their lightness? It could be said that it is the seemingly invisible and ephemeral aspects--the means of distribution, the contextual frame, the vicissitudes of taste, and an object's ability to "pass"--which serve as the most robust material of the contemporary work, an embrace of convention that produces an endless sequence of provisional "meanings." Perhaps the only solution available to us is to allow pictures to be concrete, to reclaim their moments of heaviness, instead of pretending that they are endlessly able to float listlessly in the breeze."

Misunderstandings (A Theory of Photography)
Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
I have been looking at the many photographic works of Mel Bochner these past few weeks and have also been reading his essays and various writings.
Misunderstandings (A Theory of Photography) from 1967-1970 isn't photography per se but it definitely touches on and explores many ideas surrounding the medium.
In a portfolio of nine photo offset prints on white lined notecard, Bochner compiled a selection of quotes relating to photography and included three that were fakes. Those were then placed in a manilla envelope with one offset printed photograph.
Here are the rest of the prints interspersed with Bochner talking about the project from an interview with Hans Ulrich Obrist:
"When I realized in 1967, that my work had become about photography without wanting it to - I thought, I should do some research, look into the history of the medium and find out what's been written about it, what the issues are."
"What I found was really pretty dumb - it had no value in any theoretical terms. And the more I read, the more I began to see it all as a colossal misunderstanding. So I started compiling a set of misunderstandings."
"After a while I had quite a large number of these quotations which I wanted to publish. The first title was "Dead Ends and Vicious Circles"..."
"...I submitted it to Artforum but Philip Leader said 'we're not a goddamn photography magazine, this is an art magazine, don't give me anything on photography, we don't do photography!' Then I sent it to Art in America and they were not interested either, but suggested that I send it to a photography magazine! Like Popular Photography! Well I knew that no photography magazine could possibly be interested in this, so I put it in a drawer and forgot about it."
"Then in 1970, Marian Goodman, who then had a gallery called Multiples Gallery, came up with the idea of doing a boxed multiple set of artists' photographs. She made this box which was quite an amazing thing, it had Smithson, Graham, Ruscha, Dibbets, Rauschenberg, LeWitt, myself and a number of other artists."
"My contribution was a version of Dead Ends and Vicious Circles, a compilation of quotations I titled "Misunderstandings( A Theory of Photography)." And to further add to the confusion, three of the quotes were fakes, I made them up."
"The last card in the envelope is a reproduction of a negative of a Polaroid, but of course Polaroids don't have negatives!"
