Rachel Whiteread : casting and collecting childhood

Ashton, Jenna Carine January 2014 (has links)
Responding to the works of artist Rachel Whiteread (b. 1963), this research aims to interrogate the social and spatial experiences of childhood, starting from the personal, childhood memory. Whiteread offers a curious collection of objects, furniture, toys, utensils, photographs and junk. Casting and collecting are Whiteread’s primary methods of artistic creation, of creative play, and these processes are at the centre of this thesis. Casting and collecting transforms objects – their uses and forms, and thus subsequent meanings and associations. Melanie Klein (1882-1960) was an early pioneer of child analysis, developing her distinctive method of the play technique. A key founder of British objects relations theory, Klein’s method incorporated creative play with objects and toys. Klein and Whiteread hold objects in common; play sits alongside casting and collecting. I use Klein’s theories to open up the childhood house of Whiteread and her methods of casting and collecting. The three chapters of this thesis, Closeted Childhoods: Closet (1988); Siblings and Seriality: Untitled [One Hundred Spaces] (1995); A Photographic Portrait of House (1993-94), draw on different aspects of Kleinian and psychoanalytical theory in response to Whiteread’s own childhood memory-work. Kleinian themes addressed include destruction and reparation, guilt and envy, loss and mourning, with the conclusion returning to that first object, the mother, and the presence of the maternal in Whiteread’s works. Primarily, I argue that Whiteread’s sculptural casts and installations are those materialised secrets of hidden and concealed childhoods denied by a mythology of familial unity. Significantly, I consider how the autobiographical childhood remembrance holds relevance for wider concerns of social and spatial experience – public and private.

A influência do colecionismo na representação da memória social : análise da coleção Amidicis Tocantins /

Santos, Admeire da Silva. January 2015 (has links)
Orientadora: Maria Leandra Bizello / Banca: Ana Cristina Albuquerque / Banca: João Batista Ernesto de Moraes / Resumo: A Biblioteca Central da universidade federal de Mato Grosso conta com um acervo de coleção de obras raras e especiais que recebe o nome do colecionador: Coleção Amidicis Tocantins - CAT. O colecionador, um homem comum, mas que gostava de colecionar livros de relevância social, faleceu e deixou a coleção aos cuidados da família, que decidiu doar a coleção. O processo de doação foi intermediado pelos membros da família e a reitoria da Universidade Federal do Mato Grosso, que no período demonstrou interesse em receber a coleção. A Biblioteca Central, como muitas outras bibliotecas públicas brasileiras, passa por problemas financeiros para o tratamento adequado da coleção, seja estrutural ou de capacitação pessoal. Dessa forma, as obras pertencentes à coleção não possuem tratamento algum, o que vem gerando muitos questionamentos. E a questão aqui trabalhada é: pode uma coleção anteriormente particular representar a memória coletiva? Na busca para a resolução dessa questão, elencou-se como objetivo principal identificar e discutir a relevância de uma coleção institucionalizada na configuração da memória social, no âmbito da Ciência da Informação, por meio do estudo do caso da Coleção Amidicis Tocantins. Nesse seguimento, busca-se analisar, no âmbito da Ciência da Informação, os termos coleção, objeto, memória e lugar de memória, estabelecendo assim um diálogo entre esses conceitos; analisar in loco a Coleção Amidicis Tocantins a fim de coletar informações e interpretar por meio da literatura as questões pertinentes ao significado e finalidade da coleção; apresentar de que forma a Coleções Amidicis Tocantins pode representar a memória social e refletir nos motivos pelo qual foi escolhida pela instituição. A metodologia do trabalho é o estudo de caso, na qual se utilizou da ...

The collector, a common man, who liked to collect social relevant books, died and left the collection under the care of his family which decided to donate the collection. The donation process was intermediated by the family members and the Mato Grosso Federal University rector who in the period showed interest in receiving the collection. The Central Library, as many others Brazilian public universities, struggles with financial problems to give proper treatment to the collection, be it structural or of personal capacitation.This way the works that belong to the collection don't have any treatment, which has been causing many questioning s. And the question here worked is: Can a previously particular collection represent a collective memory? In the search for the resolution of this question it was ranked as the main objective to identify and discuss the relevance of an institutionalized collection in the configuration of social memory, in the Information Science scope, through the studying of the Amidicis Tocantins Collection case. In this sequence it is aimed to analyze, in the Information Science scope, the terms collection, object, memory and place of memory, establishing, there for, a dialogue between these concepts; to analyze in loco the Amidicis Tocantins Collection in order to collect information and to interpret, through the literature, the questions pertinent to the collection's meaning and finality; to present how the Amidicis Tocantins Collection can represent a social memory and reflect the motives for which it was chosen by the institution. The works methodology is a case study in which has been utilized the theoretical proposition to analyze the data ... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Mestre
