A bridge, an ellipsis, a sudden trailing off, the title of this exhibition, etc, the ... might also be the blub blub blub of an underwater clam drawn by Jack Smith (“Ploduction Ploblems”), or a sort of mussel-talk taking over. In Réné Daumal’s unfinished novel Mount Analogue, which narrates the search for an invisible mountain (the largest on earth), there is a description of the money used in this place: smooth, pearl-like orbs dug out of the invisible mountain’s soil and very difficult to find. So on Mount Analogue, the ... would also be a price, a sum, exact amount of invisible cash. (Excerpt from the index of the accompanying book, published by Buchhandlung Walther König, Cologne)

Symposium
Unter Druck – Under pressure
2nd Part: Social individuals and their possibilities of actions
Lecture: Paolo Virno: „Grammar of the Multitude“
Response: Martin Saar and Daniel Birnbaum
Friday, 15 December, 18 h, Aula
Die Veranstaltung findet in englischer Sprache statt.
With „Grammar of the Multitude“ (2005) Italian philosopher Paolo Virno made one of the most important contributions to the discourse on bio-politics and post-fordian labour relations. As a thinker who belongs to the radical Italian left wing and who was politically active in the environment of the operaistic movement, he has developed a brilliant analysis of the contemporary way of living. His book systematically explores how the recently much-invoked „Post-Fordism“ in an essential way affects our existence, our conception of the subject and our labour relations. If it is the case that nowadays „virtuosity“ is in demand and that language and communication have become the decisive powers of productivity, then this has to have consequences also for the production of art. In the framework of the symposiums „Under pressure“ we shall discuss the new necessities described by Virno from the perspective of the artists. We will explore the options for action and will follow up the implications of the models he recommends, e.g. „exit“ and „disobedience“.
„Unter Druck – Under pressure. About subject-shaped pictures, social individuals and the new spirit of capitalism“ is a conference in three parts, organized by the ‘Institut für Kunstkritik’ (Institute for Art Criticism in co-operation with the ‘Institut für Sozialforschung’ (Institute for Social Research) Frankfurt.

JEREMY MILLAR
Herzliche Einladung zu den Veranstaltungen der Städelschule!
Lecture:
Jeremy Millar: Zugzwang (almost complete)
Tuesday, 5 December, 19 h, Aula
Die Veranstaltung findet in englischer Sprache statt.
The term ‘Zugzwang’ is taken from German, meaning ‘compulsion to move’, and is used in chess to describe a situation in which a player is put at a disadvantage because he has to make the next move, and makes his situation worse in doing so. Jeremy Millar’s recent project is ambitious, large-scale, in a number of different media, and was inspired by Marcel Duchamp’s only two visits to the South East region of the UK. Zugzwang (almost complete) is about a Frenchman in England, about The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even, about The Green Glass and chess.
Jeremy Millar is an artist and curator living in Whitstable. He was curator among others at The Photographers’ Gallery, London and also inaugural director of the Brighton Photo Biennial (2003). As an artist he has exhibited widely and is also a prolific writer; beside his severals books he contributes to Art Monthly, Blueprint, frieze and Parkett.

TAL R / PROF. DR. GERNOT BÖHME
Herzliche Einladung zu den Veranstaltungen der Städelschule!
Lecture:
Tal R: Le peintre n´est pas la
Monday, 20 November, 19 h, Aula
Die Veranstaltung findet in englischer Sprache statt.
"Le peintre n'est pas là" is also the title of the final show in New York in a series of four exhibitions. The shown paintings, - restricted to a colour palette of seven colours -, are featureing the stereotypical painter's haunts: the studio, the academy and the drinking hall.
Tal R characterises himself as a suburban kid who is often telling banal and simple stories with inspiration drawn from his immediate world: music, youth culture, comics, graffiti and the recent, expressive art history, e.g. Per Kirkeby. He conjures up a poetic pictorial universe that combines typically expressive painterly qualities with narratives and various associations, half way between realism and its total corruption via the artist's imagination. There is no hierarchy to Tal R's art; everything can be and is shown, no subject is too pedestrian, too revealing or too banal. His unpretentious approach to art characterises his work which is chaotic, humorous and full of movement.
Tal R has been a guestprofessor at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf since 2005. Last time his art was shown in Frankfurt at the Fine Art Fair, in cooperation with Jonathan Meese.
the Architecture Class presents:
Prof. Dr. Gernot Böhme, Philosopher, Darmstadt: [ The Concept of Atmosphere and its Meaning to Architecture ]
Thursday, 23 November, 19h, Aula
Alle Veranstaltungen der Architekturklasse finden in englischer Sprache statt.
Gernot Böhme was born in Dessau in 1937. He is a professor of philosophy at the Technische Universität in Darmstadt, where he taught since 1977, and has been visiting professor at the universities of Vienna, Harvard, Linköping, Cambridge, Canberra, and Rotterdam (Erasmus Universiteit). He is currently working on chaos theory and the link between technization and society. He is the author of Ästhetik: Vorlesungen über Ästhetik als allgemeine Wahrnehmunglehre, Theorie des Bildes, and Atmosphäre: Essays zur neuen Ästhetik.
Gernot Böhme, will lecture on the meaning of atmospheres in architecture. He has recently published an essay in the book Natural History, dealing with aesthetics and atmosphere in the work of Herzog & de Meuron.
The Städelschule Architecture Class Lecture Series is supported by the Architekten- und Stadtplanerkammer Hessen.

SKULPTUR PROJEKTE MÜNSTER 07: FIKTION DES ÖFFENTLICHEN
Herzliche Einladung zu den Veranstaltungen der Städelschule!
Podiumsdiskussion:
Fiktion des Öffentlichen
Mittwoch, 15 November, 19 Uhr, Aula
Mit Brigitte Franzen und Kasper König, Mitglieder des Kuratorenteams skulptur projekte münster 07, Clemens von Wedemeyer als teilnehmender Künstler und dem Soziologen Klaus Ronneberger, Frankfurt.
Im Sommer 2007 finden – zum vierten Mal und kuratiert von Brigitte Franzen, Carina Plath und Kasper König – die skulptur projekte münster 07 statt. Diese internationale Großausstellung lädt seit 1977 alle zehn Jahre Künstlerinnen und Künstler aus aller Welt ein, um das Verhältnis von Kunst und Öffentlichkeit neu zu definieren. Ein Parcours von ortsspezifischen Installationen und Skulpturen macht den Stadtraum von Münster neu erfahrbar. Für das Projekt im nächsten Jahr haben bisher u.a. zugesagt: Michael Elmgreen und Ingar Dragset, Hans-Peter Feldmann, Isa Genzken, Mike Kelley und Rosemarie Trockel.
Im Vorfeld diskutieren jetzt die Kuratoren zusammen mit einigen Künstlern des Projektes die zentralen Fragestellungen: Welche Möglichkeiten haben Künstler heute, Öffentlichkeit(en) zu schaffen? Welche Zukunft hat der öffentliche Raum – im Spannungsfeld zwischen Verwahrlosung und Vereinnahmung? Und welche öffentlichen Partizipationsformen gestalten heute das gesellschaftliche Projekt „Kunst“ mit?

STEVEN CLAYDON / CHRISTIAN BOLTANSKI
Herzliche Einladung zu den Veranstaltungen der Städelschule!
Lecture:
Steven Claydon
Tuesday, 7 November, 19 h, Aula
Die Veranstaltung findet in englischer Sprache statt.
Steven Claydon is fascinated with overlooked moments in history, particularly British history. Drawn to the interface between politics and art in early twentieth-century Europe, his paintings and posters include references to Vorticism and the Bauhaus, while some of his sculptures refer explicitly to monuments and memorials from the turn of the last century. All of his works have a false patina of age, as if they were relics from another time. He cooperated several times with Neil Chapman, also with Chris Ofili and others. Steven Claydon is well known to the electronic music scene in London and elsewhere under his synonym "Add N to X". Some of his works can be seen at the current exhibition "Rings of Saturn" in the Tate Modern, London.
"Proud as Miami Vice, Add N To X sets the controls to the heart of the Hole, leaving earth in a hail of chrome sparks and black rubber arrows of smoke."
Talk:
Christian Boltanski - An Evening at Städelschule
Christian Boltanski in conversation with Dr. Ralf Beil (Institut Mathildenhöhe) and Daniel Birnbaum
Thursday, 9 November, 19 h, Hall
Die Veranstaltung findet in englischer, französischer und deutscher Sprache statt.
„I teach this to my students: you must wait and hope - there's nothing else you can do. (...) The good artists are usually the very young or the very old. The ones who are very young are so stupid that they have no fear. And when they are very old they aren't afraid any more. In the meantime, you are always, always, afraid.“ Christian Boltanski
On October 18th 2006 Christian Boltanski was awarded the Nobel Prize for the Arts, the Praemium Imperiale. The Frenchman Christian Boltanski (born 1944) is a master of stage-setting situations and spaces. In them he powerfully evokes and questions central parameters of human existence such as lifetime, identity, the body, death and our legacy.
The lecture takes place in the broader framework of the exhibition „Time“ in Darmstadt, his first major monographic show in Germany for ten years.
In Co-operation with Institut Mathildenhöhe, Darmstadt and Institut Francais, Frankfurt.
