    Julia Stoschek on Collecting Time-based Art

    Julia Stoschek on Collecting Time-based Art

    "Time based media art is the medium of my generation” Julia Stoscheck started her phenomenal collection of time-based media in 2003 after a particularly moving experience watching Douglas Gordon’s video Play Dead: Real Time (2003) at Gagosian Gallery in New York. Inspired by the immediacy of this experience—a large-scale video installation in which an elephant “plays dead,” imitating its own death—Stoschek decided to focus specifically on time-based art and has since assemble

    At home with Deborah Irmas--collector, curator and art advisor

    Deborah Irmas collector, curator and art advisor How it is to live with an immersive digital artwork? ArtPlay: I remember you former apt, when you got off the elevator you immediately were confronted by this incredible digital artwork that completely engulfed you in the beautiful light in the entry space.

    Alexandre Singh - A Gentle Horror

    Alexandre Singh - A Gentle Horror

    Alexandre Singh’s first major exhibition at Metro Pictures features the New York premiere of his short film The Appointment (2019, 19 min). Singh transforms the gallery into an abandoned cinema from an imagined dystopic future. With trompe l’oeil wallpaper and flooring that is painstakingly hand-drawn, the exhibition includes sculpture and paintings that refer to the macabre vernacular of the film. The works further Singh’s ideas around narrative and storytelling, which he fi

    Monica Lacy - living with video art in Los Angeles

    Monica Lacy Los Angeles based collector ArtPlay: How long have you been collecting contemporary art? Monica: I’ve been collecting art for about 15 years. I was first interested in paintings and then changed my focus to photography. I found artists working with the newest digital technology and camera-less photography to be the most interesting. ArtPlay: How did you become interested in video art and media based art? Monica: I saw the work of the LA based, video artist Brian B
    REICH RICHTER PÄRT - THE SHED

    REICH RICHTER PÄRT - THE SHED

    The Reich Richter collaboration, a Shed commission, examines the intersection between Richter’s formula for his “Patterns” series and Reich’s rigorous, repeating musical structures in a genre-crossing moving picture work made in collaboration with Corinna Belz and featuring the world premiere of a new Reich composition. In his “Patterns” series, Richter repeatedly divides and mirrors a computer image of an abstract painting to further abstract the work, ending in solid bands
    Petra Cortright - PINK_PARA_1STCHOICE - TIMES SQUARE

    Petra Cortright - PINK_PARA_1STCHOICE - TIMES SQUARE

    Petra Cortright’s core practice is the creation and distribution of digital and physical images using consumer or corporate software. Whether she is manipulating digital files into two-dimensional paintings in Photoshop or uploading videos to online platforms, the Internet is deeply ingrained in Cortright’s work. She became renowned for making self-portrait videos that use her computer’s webcam and default effects tools, which she would upload to YouTube and caption with spam

    ALEX PRAGER - PLAY THE WIND - LEHMANN MAUPIN GALLERY

    Well established for her genre-defying approach to image making that timelessly combines eras, cultural references, and personal experiences, the photographs and the film debuted in this exhibition are a fresh reflection on Prager’s place of origin, site of inspiration, and frequent character—the city of Los Angeles … In Prager’s newest film, Play the Wind, we are led on a journey throughout Los Angeles with our protagonists Dimitri Chamblas (dean of the Sharon Disney Lund Sc

In ‘Chalkroom’ it is possible to float around virtually and to explore a hand-drawn universe of sentences and words written in chal
    Studio Visit with Ed Atkins

    Studio Visit with Ed Atkins

    Berlin Art Link Productions visited Ed Atkins' studio to talk about his working process and how he culls through a mass of ideas to reach his final, holistic exhibition. British, Berlin-based artist Ed Atkins' HD videos and text-based works create worlds simultaneously hyper-real and undeniably artificial. His current exhibition 'Old Food' at Martin-Gropius-Bau is no exception: the video works presented in the show are without concrete narrative but evoke a melancholic emotio

    Bill Viola Interview: Cameras are Keepers of the Souls

    When video artist Bill Viola was 6 years old he fell into a lake, all the way to the bottom, to a place which seemed like paradise. "There's more than just the surface of life." Viola explains. "The real things are under the surface". American Bill Viola (born 1951) is a pioneer in video art. In this interview, Viola talks about his development as an artist and his most important breakthroughs. As a child Bill Viola felt that the world inside his head was more real than the o

    The 58th Venice Biennale Exhibition: Meet Curator Ralph Rugoff

    This year’s prestigious Venice Biennale’s centerpiece exhibition, its 58th, has been curated by Ralph Rugoff, an American art critic who became director of London’s Hayward Gallery. Seeking to assemble artists he felt somehow captured our turbulent, some would say perilous zeitgeist, Rugoff wryly titled the show “May You Live In Interesting Times.” He explains why in this video, shot on-site during the festival’s opening week, and takes us on a tour of a few of the show’s hig

    Bruce Nauman: DISAPPEARING ACTS

    Bruce Nauman Contrapposto Studies, i through vii 2015/2016 “Video — new to art, cheap to produce, easy to show — became a primary medium for Mr. Nauman and with it he continued, for a while, to be his own most malleable subject. In a piece called “Art Make-Up: No. 1 White, No. 2 Pink, No. 3 Green, No. 4 Black,” he smears his face and bare chest with layers of colored pigment. He’s turning himself into a living painting, but he also seems to be playing with the fictions and st

    Sarah Lucas: Au naturel

    Sarah Lucas: Au naturel

    Au Naturel is satisfying at every turn. It’s tough. It’s hilarious. It’s beautifully done. And it’s absolutely true to its maker, a proud spitfire—a “rude girl” sensitive to her working-class background and eager to stick it to any mofo who shows her gender disrespect, be it in the workplace, at home or in the tabloids. From the start of her career in the early 1990s, when she was aligned with the Young British Artists—fellow Goldsmiths graduates like Damien Hirst, Fiona Rae
