The Field

The basic methodology of anthropology is ethnography. This is the famous 'fieldwork' in which the researcher shares the daily life of a different culture (remote or close), observes, records, tries to grasp the 'indigenous point of view' and writes.

Objects of Anthropology

Politics is also the art of administrating and producing subjects, citizens.

The Visual Poetics of Jannis Kounellis

Suzanne Cotter and Andrew Nainre

He translates the painterly relationship of figure and ground into the space of real situations

Kounellis's engagement with the social and historical content and with the material fabric of a given space is critical to his art.

The Castelvecchio in the Opus of Carlo Scarpa

Possibly until very recently Scarpa's work was still judged as anachronistic, small scale and craft intensive.

Wittgenstein : The Duty of Genius

The work of art/aesthetics/ethics seen 'under the form of eternity'

Schopenhauer discusses, in a remarkably similar way, a form of contemplation in which we relinquish 'the ordinary way of considering things', and 'no longer consider the where, the when, the why, and the whither in things, but simply the what'.

Collage: Diversions, Contradictions and Anomalies.

 Collage: Diversions, Contradictions and Anomalies.

Collage's integral methods of discordance and displacement have so insistently reflected turbulent developments in twentieth century art, science and geopolitics that our response might be to categorise the whole genre as iconoclasm or subversive fantasy.

Lingering at the threshold between word and image

Cy Twombly

Claire Daigle

Although his work resonates strongly with generations of younger artists, ranging from Brice Marden to Richard Prince to Tacita Dean to Patti Smith, it has a general propensity to polarise its audience between perplexity and unbridled admiration. 

Certainly, the fortuities of a name are being pushed too far here, but what does Twombly do but offer up words in all of their resonance: literal, metaphoric, corporeal, material? His citations often have the vanitas effect of graffiti: ‘Cy was here’. Lingering at the threshold between word and image, Twombly renders visible those things – experience, emotion, the body’s share – that lie beyond the reach of verbal articulation.
