Stuart Bailey: A * with a Scottish accent
Mittwoch, 28. Januar 2015, 19 Uhr, Aula
A talk that traces the genealogy of a work-in progress by The Serving Library, a *speaking asterisk*. This asterisk cross-pollinates a number of prior projects that were respectively concerned with: (a) what it might mean to communicate without language; (b) a typeface that consists in a number of meta-parameters rather than a fixed family; and (c) the late Scottish writer Gilbert Adair's overarching project of 'continuation'. The whole is offered as a timely instance of what we've come to think of as 'publishing in its most exploded sense'.
Stuart Bailey’s work circumscribes various aspects of graphic design, writing and editing, most consistently in close collaboration with artists. He co-edits the journal Bulletins of The Serving Library which follows the trajectory of its predecessor Dot Dot Dot. He works together with David Reinfurt under the name Dexter Sinister, and is currently involved in setting up a institution called The Serving Library with David along with Angie Keefer. He lives in Liverpool, UK.
Der Vortrag findet in englischer Sprache statt.

Vortrag
Isabelle Graw: Portrait of the Artist as Strategic Painter. Notes on Avery Singer´s work.
Dienstag, 27. Januar 2015, 19 Uhr, Aula
Painting has since the 1990´s been regarded as an accepted - and even radical - form of social, conceptual and institutional critique. It came into fashion again under the slogan of network painting, a loose term which imagined the artist´s personal social sphere, and the passage of the art work within it, as intrinsic to the work´s materials and meanings. While finally breaking with the modernist idea of a pure and clearly delimited medium, this approach introduced new problems. It delivered precisely those social relations that today´s new economy is busy absorbing. Avery Singer´s paintings will be presented as a way of addressing, even dramatizing these problems artistically without offering a way out or a solution.
Isabelle Graw teaches art history at the Academy of Fine Arts, Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main. Among her most recent publications are "High Price. Art between the Market and Celebrity Culture" (2010), "Texte zur Kunst. Essays, Reviews, Interviews (2011), "Thinking through Painting: Reflexivity and Agency beyond the Canvas" (co-editor, 2012) and "Über Malerei. Eine Diskussion" (with Peter Geimer, 2012)
