Abstract:
L'Exposition a fait l'objet de nombreuses analyses et pourtant son rapport à la photographie est rarement évoqué. Considérée comme un procédé, elle développe de nombreux liens avec celui de la Photographie. Toutes les deux consistent à "montrer". Au-delà de leurs analogies, la Photographie et l'Exposition sont interdépendantes. L'étude de l'Exposition passe désormais inévitablement par la photographie. Les artistes et les commissaires utilisent aujourd'hui la photographie non pas comme une finalité mais comme un outil permettant de penser la mise en espace. Une photographie de vue d'exposition

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on the aesthetics of the photographic representation of the actual dead body in Elizabeth Heyert's The Travelers (2004), Pieter Hugo's The Bereaved (2005) and Walter Schels and Beate Lakotta's Life Before Death: Portraits of the Dying (2004). The use of portraiture in each of these artist's series is crucial as it suggests an interest in the 'subjectness' of the corpse. Katarzyna Majak's (2011) theory of socialization as an attempt to lessen the scandal of the corpse through representation is central throughout this thesis. Majak argues that for the viewer the corpse is a s

Abstract:
Since the late 1990s a new tendency has emerged in contemporary art whereby artists deploy archival research to explore the mechanics of historical representation and evoke the past. This thesis examines the works of some of the most relevant practitioners of the new tendency who are working with video, photography and film and explores the reasons for the return of historical representation in art. In the introduction the study sets the tendency against the background of modernist, postmodernist theories and the historiographic debates of the last thirty years. The first chapter attempts a cr

Abstract:
My proposition developed in this thesis is that photographs have changed the way the past is conceived and therefore the way the past is remembered. Just as the inventions of the telescope and microscope radically changed our understanding of distance and space on a macro and micro level, the invention of the photograph has radically altered our concepts of the past, memory and time. My starting point is a collection of photographs taken by my grandfather, Albert Edward Ingham, which is used both in my studio work and as a basis for my theoretical writing.

Abstract:
The traditional notion of material authenticity as being the physical and aesthetic evidence of the artist’s hand in the ‘original’ materials is outmoded. With the changed nature of art must come a rethinking of the concept of authenticity. Authenticity was and is often discussed in relation to attribution, and is traditionally linked with the artwork’s material presence. This thesis questions that assumption, drawing on the literature of philosophy that describes authenticity as someone’s ‘true essence’ in order to propose the significance of the interrelation of the artwork’s multiple attrib

At the end of the 20th century, significant changes occurred in Lithuanian photography: a certain part of photography relinquished earlier traditions of Lithuanian photography and did not conform to the conventional criteria of artistry of photography altogether.

It considers, on the one hand, Valcárcel’s artwork in relation to the liberating role that Marcuse attributes to art (via phantasy, polymorphous eroticism, and Orphic paradigm). On the other hand, it explores the strategies devised by Valcárcel against repression, such as self-promotion, multiple texts, play, humour and unmasking certain repressive truths. The read

Abstract:
A particular literary genre, the exhibition review, forms the subject of this dissertation. It represents one facet of a discourse which began to develop in Britain during the latter years of the eighteenth century. Art historians have become increasingly interested in such criticism, but have usually treated it, not as an historical phenomenon which in itself deserves a full investigation, but as a pool of evidence from which to draw remarks concerning individual artists or works of art It is argued that such a one-dimensional approach is unsatisfactory, but that in attempting to go beyond it

Abstract:
Esta tesis se plantea el estudio de la estrecha concomitancia que existe entre la fotografía contemporánea y la manifestación de lo siniestro. A partir del ensayo de Freud de 1919, Das Unheimliche, y la constatación del rol protagónico que asume hoy en día la fotografía en los procesos de construcción de realidad, se analizan los motivos que hacen de la imagen fotográfica un campo propiciatorio para la experimentación de lo ominoso. El análisis se desarrolla por medio de una serie de ejemplos fotográficos, producidos a partir de la década de los 80’s, por artistas activos en Europa y Estados

Darbe nagrinėjama tikrovės ir imitacijos problema fotografijoje pagal Jean‘ą Baurillard‘ą, menamos ir realios tikrovių koegzistavimo bei sąveikos problema. Darbe keliamas tikslas – imituotas peizažas: nagrinėjama imitacijos tendencija šiuolaikinėje kūrybinėje fotografijoje, kai išryškinami realybės neatitikimai, t.y. kur „imituotas peizažas“ prasilenkia su menamu realiu peizažu. Darbo objektas yra „imituoto peizažo“, kaip šiuolaikinio meno objekto, vaizdavimas, konstravimas. Klausimai, susiję su tokiu peizažu, yra nagrinėjami, vadovaujantis simuliakrų teorija.

A presente pesquisa problematiza a noção de paisagem na arte contemporânea a partir da fotografia. Para tanto, analisa trabalhos fotográficos de três artistas: Efêmera Paisagem, do paraense Alberto Bitar, West Solent Coastline Rhythm, do inglês radicado no Brasil Nick Rands, e A Road Divided, do americano Todd Hido. Nas obras em questão, o deslocamento é interpretado como parte fundamental do processo criativo e modo particular de vivenciar a paisagem, contribuindo para a elaboração de uma noção de paisagem como “passagem”, a partir de Nelson Brissac e Walter Benjamin.<br>The present research

Abstract:
Master of Visual Arts<br>This Dissertation explores the metaphor of Ariadne’s thread in terms of interconnection, when an element from the everyday is used as a locus linking broader concepts of time and space. Such experiences and associations are reflected in the work of Louise Bourgeois, Eva Hesse, Doris Salcedo, Lucio Fontana, Richard Tuttle, Mona Hatoum, Simone Mangos, Anya Gallaccio and Yoshihiro Suda. In relation to my own work, the metaphor of interconnecting thread allows a sense of freedom and journey of discovery. My studio and related research are closely aligned in developing my u
