"Failed and Fell: Fell to Fail" : the narration of history in the works of Tacita Dean and Jeremy DellerMameni-Bushor, Sara 11 1900 (has links)
This Thesis is concerned with how history is narrated in two selected works by the British artists, Tacita Dean and Jeremy Deller. Chapter one considers Deller's The Battle of Orgreave (2001), a reenactment of a violent miners' strike against Margaret Thatcher's government in 1984-1985. The reenactment brought together reenactment hobbyist and ex-miners to perform the events at Orgreave and created a discourse around the imagined historical role of the working classes. Chapter two examines Dean's book Teignmouth Electron (1999), which recounts the failed voyage of Donald Crowhurst, one of the contestants of the 1967 Golden Globe Race who committed suicide after developing 'time-madness' at sea. She offers the history of this individual as a point of entry into middle-class aspirations in England in the 1960s.
Produced at the turn of the 21st century when Britain's New Labour government was instigating an image of a New Britain to match its bygone glory, both works look back to moments in the past that epitomize the decline of the country's old order. Unearthing instances of failure and defeat, each artist offers an alternative glance at Britain's past and present condition than the one promoted by New Labour.

Den upplysta projektorn : Analog film i förändringEklöf, Åsa January 2014 (has links)
As we speak, analogue film is being phased out of the international film industry. The medium that once reigned in capturing and projecting our world's light and the flow of time, has now been rendered obsolete and replaced by digital media technology. However, analogue film remains, and has come to be increasingly used and investigated in contemporary art. In my essay, I examine how our aesthetic perception of analogue film is changing with this shift to digital film technology. How do we experience analogue film – now that it is both on the verge of disappearing from society and is put in contrast to its digital successor? My investigation is based on the thesis that analogue film is now in a state of change. By analyzing three contemporary artists I attempt to discern how this change is aesthetically articulated, and trace alternative forms of continued existence for analogue film. The British artist Tacita Dean, the Italian artist Rosa Barba and the Swedish artist Alexander Gutke all work with film in their own way, and also in the context of the changed status of analogue film today. Furthermore, I examine the possibility that these artists form an active part of a continuous reshaping of analogue film, which is taking place in the fracture created in this shift to digital media technologies.

Tacita Deans JG. Autorinnenfilm zwischen New Wave Science-Fiction und Land ArtRosen, Susanne 06 February 2025 (has links)
Durch die Entwicklungen der Digitalisierung scheint 2013 die Obsoleszenz des analogen Filmmediums besiegelt. Während ein Großteil der Filmindustrie über die Flexibilität digitaler Filmaufnahmen erleichtert ist, betrauern KünsterInnen wie Tacita Dean den drohenden Verlust des analogen Mediums. Dem Anliegen, analogen Film in seinen intrinsischen Qualitäten zu erkennen, zu würdigen und zu erhalten, widmet die Künstlerin Arbeiten wie Kodak (2006) oder FILM (2011). Auch in Deans Film JG (2013) setzt sich die Künstlerin mit dem drohenden Ende des Mediums auseinander. Aufgrund seiner Rätselhaftigkeit und gesteigerten Polysemie nimmt der Film allerdings eine Sonderstellung in Deans Werk ein. Die vorliegende Arbeit sucht die Rätsel zu entziffern und zeigt auf, wie in JG dem Untergang des ‚Universums Film‘ über die Figur eines allegorischen Dramas Gestalt verliehen wird und wie über Fragmente des analogen Films ein Erinnerungsbild an die technischen und chemischen Bedingungen sowie strukturellen Eigenheiten des Mediums geschaffen wird, das allein für diejenigen in JG erkennbar wird, die mit dem Wissen um diese Bedingungen vertraut sind. In einem zweiten Schritt widmet sich die Untersuchung den Werken des britischen Science-Fiction-Schriftstellers J.G. Ballard und des US-amerikanischen Land-Art-Künstlers Robert Smithson, auf die sich Dean in JG bezieht. Über ‚close-reading‘-Analysen von Ballards The Voices of Time (1960) und Prisoner of the Coral Deep (1964) sowie Roberts Smithsons Spiral Jetty (1970) lässt sich zeigen, dass die Künstlerin Strategien zur Anwendung bringt, mit denen sie JG in unmittelbare Nähe zum Science-Fiction-Genre und zu Smithsons Land Art rückt, worüber es ihr gelingt, neben der zeitlichen auch die räumliche Dimension des Films, seine skulpturale Dimension, auf eindrückliche Weise auszustellen. / By 2013, the obsolescence of analog film seemed to be sealed as a result of progress in digitalization. While much of the film industry rejoiced in the greater flexibility provided by digital film, artists such as Tacita Dean mourned the impending loss of their analog medium. Tacita Dean had already dedicated works such as Kodak (2006) and FILM (2011) to the recognition, appreciation, and preservation of film in its intrinsic qualities. In her film JG (2013) the artist continues to deal with the impending end of the medium. JG’s enigmatic nature and heightened polysemy lends it a unique position in Dean’s œuvre. The Dissertation seeks to decipher the enigma JG and tries to show how the artist in JG confronts the impending loss of her medium. It is argued that she does this in two ways: through the figure of an allegorical drama reflecting the end of the 'universe of film’; and, secondly, through a collection of analog film fragments that, to those with the requisite knowledge, become recognizable as a commemorative picture of the technical and chemical conditions and structural characteristics of the medium. In a second step, the study is dedicated to works of British science fiction writer J.G. Ballard and American Land Art artist Robert Smithson on which Dean draws in JG. Through close-reading analyses of Ballard’s The Voices of Time (1960) and Prisoner of the Coral Deep (1964) as well as Robert Smithson’s Spiral Jetty (1970), it becomes clear that Dean employs strategies that bring JG into close proximity with the genre of Science Fiction and with Smithson’s Land Art. By these means she achieves an impressive demonstration not merely of film’s temporal but of its spatial, sculptural dimension.
