Personal anthropological observationsAtkins, John L. January 1987 (has links)
The creative project dealt with the artist creating a vocabulary of images derived from past and present cultures in order to create a series of highly personalized anthropological narratives. The artist intended the narrative drawings to invoke archaic moods rather than summon literal responses.The accomplishments of this creative project were further development of the artist's personal imagist style, success in relating personal anthropological observations through narratives, and progress in media experimentation. By creating more contrast between forms, by varying value against value and deep space against shallow space, the artist was able to achieve superior compositional studies. / Department of Art

Betwixt and between: exploring the passage of liminal spaceKey, Michelle January 2005 (has links)
The focus of this thesis is on the liminal space, limen being Latin for threshold. The liminal space is used as a means of figuring and reading artworks that appear to be in a process of becoming and disappearing. A dialectical and reciprocal reading is made of Bourgeois’ “neo-Baroque” artwork Spider (1997) and Michelle Key’s Betwixt-in-Between (2004). Liminality here is discussed within the theoretical framework of several key conceptual concerns, including abjection (as examined principally by Julia Kristeva), Baroque thought (as discussed by Mieke Bal, Gilles Deleuze, Jacques Lacan and Slavoj Žižek) and allegory (as figured primarily by Walter Benjamin and commentators on Benjamin’s writings). What links these concerns are their focus on indeterminacy, instability, and process as opposed to certitude and finitude. The exploration of the inscription of time in space; that is the temporal process, which gives rise to, which produces, the spatial dimension, is attempted in order to make meaning, however provisionally, of what may be argued to destabilise meaning and to consider possibilities for both art-making and interpretation that would engage critically with this instability.

Previous issue date: 2012 / Resumo: A arte contemporânea dos povos indígenas da Austrália é um fenômeno sui generis e ainda pouco conhecido no Brasil. Ancora-se em práticas e valores tradicionais, e, ao mesmo tempo, está inserida nas instituições museológicas e no mercado de arte. Na Austrália, sua valorização e institucionalização vêm ocorrendo, gradualmente, desde os anos 1970, graças a uma rede de apoio intersetorial e interétnica, abrangendo de órgãos públicos a cooperativas de artistas, de prêmios a leilões. O reconhecimento internacional se faz igualmente notar em iniciativas como a encomenda feita a oito aborígines australianos, em 2006, para que realizassem intervenções permanentes no edifício do Musée du Quai Branly, em Paris. Do ponto de vista formal, trata-se de uma produção muito diversificada, que pode ser dividida em movimentos ou estilos regionais, como a pintura "abstrata" de tinta acrílica sobre tela do Deserto Central, a pintura figurativa de pigmentos naturais sobre entrecasca de árvore de Arnhem Land e as aquarelas de paisagem de Hermansburg. O conteúdo remete quase sempre a feitos dos ancestrais e a fragmentos do Dreaming - uma espécie de tempo mítico comum a todas as etnias -, apesar de alguns pintores optarem por retratar cenas históricas trágicas, relativas ao encontro com os brancos. Destinada prioritariamente ao público externo, a pintura aborígine australiana é distribuída por uma rede composta por dezenas de centros de artes comunitários, dirigidos pelos próprios artistas, com o auxílio de agentes mediadores. Assim, as principais questões que nortearam a pesquisa foram: Como ocorreu a transformação de práticas tradicionais indígenas em arte contemporânea, na Austrália? Quais os papéis e os interesses das organizações indígenas e do governo, respectivamente, na montagem da chamada Indigenous art industry? Como operam as noções de autoria, autenticidade e propriedade intelectual, nesse contexto? Por que o mesmo país que massacrou seus nativos, até tão pouco tempo atrás, agora fomenta a produção artística indígena e incorpora elementos aborígines na construção da identidade nacional? Para buscar responder a tais questões, inspirei-me - principal, mas não exclusivamente - em autores e debates da antropologia da arte: Howard Morphy e seu questionamento das definições eurocêntricas de arte e artista; Alfred Gell e sua abordagem das agências envolvidas no processo artístico; Sally Price e sua discussão da postura primitivista no circuito euroamericano de museus e galerias; Sherry Errington e sua problematização da ideia de autenticidade, entre outros. Baseei-me também em pesquisa de campo, realizada junto a cerca de 30 organizações australianas, entre galerias comerciais, museus públicos, cooperativas indígenas e agências estatais, e ainda em alguns museus e galerias europeus. O objetivo era investigar os mecanismos, as relações e tensões inerentes a um sistema que, se por um lado oferece uma rara oportunidade de geração de renda e visibilidade para as comunidades indígenas australianas, por outro lado suscita impasses éticos e jurídicos de difícil resolução. Ao cabo do percurso, fica claro que a arte indígena da Austrália serve, hoje, como um raro locus de comunicação entre os povos nativos e a sociedade envolvente, uma plataforma sobre a qual se constrói - nem sempre harmonicamente - um produto intercultural de grande apelo estético, cujas exposição e comercialização acarretam impactos simbólicos, econômicos e políticos / Abstract: Contemporary Australian Indigenous art is a complex and sui generis phenomenon, still scarcely known in Brazil. While rooted in traditional cosmologies and practices, it has also found its place in museological institutions and in the art market. Since the seventies, its recognition as well as an institutionalization process have been gradually taking place in Australia, due to an intersectoral and interethnic support network, comprising from government agencies to artist cooperatives, from art awards to auctions. International prominence has been achieved through initiatives such as the commission of eight Australian Aboriginal artists, in 2006, to conduct permanent interventions in the building of the Musée du Quai Branly, in Paris. From the formal point of view, the works are much diversified. They can be classified according to artistic movements or regional styles, such as the "dot paintings" made with acrylic paint on canvas from the Central Desert, the figurative painting using natural ochres over the inner bark of trees from Arnhem Land; or the landscape watercolors from Hermansburg. Although some artists prefer to depict historical scenes from the tragic encounter with white people, the art motives are usually fragments of Dreaming - recounting the journey and actions of ancestral beings that created the natural world and the social rules. Intended mainly for an external public, Australian Aboriginal painting is distributed by a network composed of dozens of community art centers, managed by the artists themselves with the help of mediators. Thus, the main issues that guided this research were: How were traditional Indigenous practices transformed into contemporary art in Australia? Which were the interests and roles played by Indigenous organizations and the government, respectively, in the making of the so-called Indigenous art industry? How do the notions of authorship, authenticity and intellectual property operate in this context? Why does the same country that was responsible for the massacre of its natives, until recently, now foster Indigenous artistic work and incorporate Aboriginal cultural elements into the construction of its national identity? In order to answer these questions I sought inspiration - mainly but not exclusively - in authors and debates from the anthropology of art: Howard Morphy and his discussion on the Eurocentric definitions of art and artist; Alfred Gell and his form of addressing the various agencies involved in the artistic process; Sally Price and her debate of Western attitudes towards the "primitive" art in the Euro-American circuit of museums and galleries; Sherry Errington and her problematization of authenticity. I have also done fieldwork, conducted with approximately thirty Australian organizations, ranging from commercial galleries to public museums, Indigenous cooperatives and state agencies, as well as with certain European institutions. The purpose of this research was to investigate the mechanisms, relations and tensions inherent to a system that, on the one hand, offers a rare opportunity of income generation and visibility for Australian Indigenous communities, and, on the other hand, raises impasses of difficult resolution. In the end, it becomes clear that Indigenous art today stands as a privileged locus of communication between native people and the society at large, through which an intercultural product of great aesthetic appeal is construed (not necessarily in a harmonious manner), the exhibition and commercialization of which create symbolic, economic and political impact / Doutorado / Antropologia Social / Doutor em Antropologia Social

Inventing ritual : moving images of social reality in contemporary artVogt, Naomi January 2017 (has links)
Ritual is a notion that the art world has increasingly reclaimed. From critical writing that zealously identifies rituals to artists who qualify their work as ritualistic, the notion circulates, poking at the boundaries of art practice. The pattern raises critical questions for art history: does it vanish the distinction between art and social practices, casting art's separation from ritual as a passing historical phase? What are the distinctions in the first place between representing and producing a ritual? These concerns come to the fore with moving images, given that ritual has long been at the heart of ethnographic film, while the very act of filming is becoming central to a growing number of social customs. Addressing these relationships, this thesis focuses on video work since the late 1990s. The thematic research moves through three case studies: series of works by Mike Kelley, Pierre Huyghe, Ryan Trecartin and Lizzie Fitch, while keeping a comparative view towards other observers and producers of ritual in premodern painting, ethnographic filmmaking, post-internet practices, mainstream cinema, and homemade videos. Among the most influential artists at the turn of this century, Kelley, Huyghe, Trecartin and Fitch share the singular practice of restaging, for and through film, the rituals that surround them, from high school hazing and carnivals to coronations, corporate team-building, Halloween, Valentine and May Days, suburban street fairs, birthdays, and the new observances of social media. Through close study of the artworks and of moving image tropes that shape social imaginaries, the thesis suggests that these artists produce new insights into contemporary human behaviour. While art and ritual tend to be tackled as coded objects to be deciphered, holding condensed information about the societies to which they point, anthropological theory that considers ritual for what it does (rather than what it symbolises) invites us to examine them instead as practices where portions of social reality are produced - formalised and reinvented.

Previous issue date: 2009 / Resumo: Esta dissertação aborda processos e transformações. De um lado, o grupo indígena Asuriní do Xingu (PA) em contexto marcado por mudanças decorrentes das relações com diferentes interlocutores akaraí (não-indígenas) e, de outro, uma pesquisadora em metamorfose durante um processo de investigação sobre o grupo indígena. A performance no ritual xamanístico Apykwara, momento liminar e subjuntivo, no qual os Asuriní expressam a experiência social em curso, é o lugar do encontro etnográfico, objeto de análise e de criação artística. Da pesquisa realizada resultaram dois produtos, uma etnografia a partir do recorte teóricometodológico da Antropologia da Performance, e o audiovisual Acontecências, produto artístico que tematiza as reflexões suscitadas durante o processo de trabalho com as filmagens realizadas em campo. Diante das imagens, a pesquisador a descobre um olhar sensível que deflagra sua percepção subjetiva na convivência com os Asuriní e que é lançado enquanto busca caminhos possíveis para uma investigação que se pretende na fronteira interdisciplinar entre a Arte e a Antropologia. O vídeo expressa a experiência da pesquisadora em campo na relação com o grupo indígena. Nesta dissertação, a pesquisadora e os Asuriní expressam experiências vividas por intermédio de uma forma estética. / Abstract: This dissertation is about processes and transformations. On one side, the indigenous group Asuriní from Xingu (PA) in a context of changes resulting from relationships with different akaraí (non-indigenous) interlocutors and, on the other side, a researcher in metamorphosis during the process of investigation about the indigenous group. The performance in the shamanistic ritual Apykwara, a moment of threshold and subjunctive experience, in which the Asuriní express the socialexperience in course, is the scenery for the ethnographic encounter, object of analysis and artistic creation. The research generated two products, an ethnography made from the theoretical-methodological point of view of the Anthropology of Performance, and the video Acontecências, artistic product which discusses reflections that arose during the film-making process in the field. In face of the images, the researcher finds a sensitive view that reveals her subjective perception in the living with the Asuriní and which is given birth to as she looks for possible ways for an investigation that intends to be in the frontier between Art and Anthropology. The video expresses the experience of the researcher in field, in her relation with the indigenous group. In this dissertation, the researcher and the Asurini express experiences they have lived by means of an aesthetical form. / Mestrado / Mestre em Artes
