THE MUSING IDEA: A Paradigm Shift

CLICK HERE TO VISIT ONLINE
 Nina Simon is currently working with the McPherson Center in Santa Cruz, California as the Executive Director of The Museum of Art & History. Nina is also the author of The Participatory Museum  and she has presented many papers and written many an essay on museums – one being Going Analog: Translating Virtual Learnings into Real Institutional Change – http://www.museumsandtheweb.com/mw2009/papers/simon/simon.html 
The Abstract: "Museum technology professionals have spent the last several years advocating for, experimenting with, and expanding the Web presence of museums. We’ve created museum spaces on-line that offer free access to visitors all over the world and increasingly invite visitors to talk with each other, take content away with them, access and remix parts of the collection that aren’t on public display – in short, to do things that aren’t possible in the real museum.


But now we should be going in the other direction and applying the methods and lessons of the Web and Web 2.0 to the museum itself. How can museums be more like the Web? How can they be open 24/7? How can visitors customize their experiences? How can museums become places to talk with other visitors and sneak into the most interesting drawers and move things around?


This paper advocates for museum Web technology professionals to take a broader view of their roles within their institutions and focus energy on translating their knowledge to the onsite experience. It presents models and case studies for how to do this kind of translation from virtual-to-real space, both strategically (so that curators, directors, and boards can sign on to the vision) and practically."


"Metaphor is for most people a device of the poetic imagination and the rhetorical flourish - a matter of extraordinary rather than ordinary language. Moreover, metaphor is typically viewed as characteristic of language alone, a matter of words rather than thought or action. For this reason, most people think they can get along perfectly well without metaphor. We have found, on the contrary, that metaphor is pervasive in everyday life, not just in language but in thought and action. Our ordinary conceptual system, in terms of which we both think and act, is fundamentally metaphorical in nature." (Lakoff and Johnson 1980)



The National Vending Machine – Building a community of objects

Click here to visit & explore online

The National Vending Machine (Nationale Automatiek in Dutch) is place where visitors to a museum can buy historical objects. The objects are both historical and recognisable, like a light bulb or tulips. Each object tells a story about Dutch history, which visitors can read on an attached label, see as a video or discover on the project’s website.

The idea is to build a community of objects. Visitors can contribute to the exposition by telling their story about the object they bought or by suggesting new objects ... Click here to read more

A BOOK: The Participatory Museum

Why Participate?
"At the end of 2009, the National Endowment for the Arts [USA] released a sobering report on the state of arts attendance in the United States. The authors didn’t mince words; in the preface, they wrote, “The 2008 survey results are, at a glance, disappointing.”Over the last twenty years, audiences for museums, galleries, and performing arts institutions have decreased, and the audiences that remain are older and whiter than the overall population. Cultural institutions argue that their programs provide unique cultural and civic value, but increasingly people have turned to other sources for entertainment, learning, and dialogue. They share their artwork, music, and stories with each other on the Web. They participate in politics and volunteer in record numbers. They even read more. But they don’t attend museum exhibits and performances like they used to.


How can cultural institutions reconnect with the public and demonstrate their value and relevance in contemporary life? I believe they can do this by inviting people to actively engage as cultural participants, not passive consumers. As more people enjoy and become accustomed to participatory learning and entertainment experiences, they want to do more than just “attend” cultural events and institutions. The social Web has ushered in a dizzying set of tools and design patterns that make participation more accessible than ever. Visitors expect access to a broad spectrum of information sources and cultural perspectives. They expect the ability to respond and be taken seriously. They expect the ability to discuss, share, and remix what they consume. When people can actively participate with cultural institutions, those places become central to cultural and community life.

This book presents techniques for cultural institutions to invite visitor participation while promoting institutional goals. Community engagement is especially relevant in a world of increasing participatory opportunities on the social Web, but it is not new. Arguments for audience participation in cultural institutions trace back at least a hundred years. There are three fundamental theories underpinning this book:

  • The idea of the audience-centered institution that is as relevant, useful, and accessible as a shopping mall or train station (with thanks to John Cotton Dana, Elaine Heumann Gurian, and Stephen Weil).
  • The idea that visitors construct their own meaning from cultural experiences (with thanks to George Hein, John Falk, and Lynn Dierking).
  • The idea that users’ voices can inform and invigorate both project design and public-facing programs (with thanks to Kathy McLean, Wendy Pollock, and the design firm IDEO) ... Click here to read on

RESEARCH & PERFORMANCE: Independent Curators International

Marina Abramovic, The House with the Ocean View (2002)
Sean Kelly Gallery
FOREWORD: Increasingly Independent curatorship is where we are finding the sharp end curatorial practice. 'Institutional Curatorship' all to often is marked by ultra-conservatisim and outmoded status quo practices.  However cultural producers are embracing dynamic new approaches to their work and likewise, audiences are much better informed, and much more demanding,  than it has traditionally been assumed that they are. 

The game has been lifted by independent curators and researchers. They are blurring borders and challenging the once reliable 'safe practices' dished up by institutions. This research focusing upon performance art is an exemplar of where we might find the critical thinking.

Performance and Reperformance
By Mariana Azevedo, Sakina Namazi, Shannon Ryan, Keeli Shaw on November 1, 2011 Posted in Dispatch
As an artistic classification, the term ‘performance art’ is fairly contentious within the contemporary art world. Over the past 40 years, the artistic practice has evolved to encompass myriad forms and titles in an attempt to adequately categorize the genre. Artists, curators and scholars readily agree there are historical sub-movements within the genre, such as body art, live art, etc., but the term ‘performance art’ has been largely accepted as the definitive term and subsequently integrated within both art historical and popular discourse. Some argue the classification of ‘performative’ is misleading and antithetical to the conceptual basis of most works done in the 1960’s and 70’s. The term portends theatricality and therefore misconstrues or alters the intentions of the work because of the association with entertainment.

So it is easy to imagine the contention and debate brought to the forefront of the art world when performance artworks made in the 1960’s and 70’s - when performance art really took off as an artistic practice - was featured within the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Museum of Modern Art in 2005 and 2010, respectively. The Guggenheim’s “Seven Easy Pieces” (2005) featured works by artists such as Joseph Beuys, Gina Pane and Vito Acconci. Intriguingly, these seminal works did not feature the original artist but rather were performed by another, an artistic contemporary who has proclaimed her intentions to take control of the genre: Marina Abramovic. She is responsible for coining the phrase ‘reperformance’ and much debate has occurred over the validity of the term, especially considering the debate regarding the antecedent term ‘performance.’ ... Click here to read more

Curation and keeping up in the 21st Century



Manifesta Journal is pleased to announce the launch of its third series. The format of Manifesta Journal(MJ), like the Manifesta biennial, is a changing model. It aims to facilitate a platform for a critical analyses into international curating and biennials in general. Every six editions, a new editorial team from diverse areas of Europe and beyond is invited to develop a different concept for the series, reflecting on contemporary Europe and the world.
For the first time in MJ's history, MJ #13–18 will be available for free online. Readers will also soon be able to order a print-on-demand issue. 

About: Founded in 2003, Manifesta Journal is an international journal that focuses on the practices and theories of contemporary curating. Manifesta Journal is an independent project, initiated by the Manifesta Foundation. The format of Manifesta Journal (MJ), like the Manifesta biennial, is a changing model. It aims to be both self-reflective and critical toward international curating and biennials in general, but also toward its own functional mechanisms. Every six editions, a new editorial team from diverse areas of Europe and beyond is invited to develop a different concept for the series, to reflect on contemporaery Europe and the world ... After the comprehensive grammar and manual for contemporary curatorship established in the first six issues of Manifesta Journal, MJ #1–6, by Viktor Misiano and Igor Zabel and which continued in the series of six issues that were realized between 2009–2011 by Viktor Misiano, Senior Editor Nathalie Zonnenberg and Associate Editor Filipa Ramos, NataÅ¡a PetreÅ¡in-Bachelez as Chief Editor and Virginie Bobin as Associate Editor have taken over the editorial work of the Manifesta Journal for the upcoming six issues, MJ #13–18. Manifesta Journal can be regarded as a porous platform to reconsider ... read more here

The canon of curating: At the heart of MJ’s 11th issue, “The Canon of Curating,” lies the question on how the canon of curating is to be defined. If “a history of exhibitions” must be written what should its parameters be? In art history, the canon has been losing ground since the 1960s, when the  study of “great artists” began to be replaced slowly by the study of the conditions surrounding artistic practice. This shift was also demonstrated by curators of the time. Nevertheless, within the practice of curating, the canon seems to occupy a noteworthy position—if only because some curators still feel the need to “curate outside the canon.” In the Historiography section, Bruce Altshuler explores the discussion and research around the complex establishment of an exhibition canon. Simon Sheikh notes in his contribution that it is important to keep the inclusionary and exclusionary mechanisms of a canon in mind and reconsider the .... read more here

•••

Ethics “The true art of a curator is an art of compromise.” No doubt Pierre Restany's bon mot reflects the reality of curatorial practice. Curators are dealing with different and often alien interests—political, economic and social. In realizing their oeuvre, they must always satisfy the requests of politicians, sponsors, managers, artists, professionals and large audiences. What are the limitations of this art of compromise? Does an art of compromise also presume a consciousness of what should not be a matter of compromise? These are among the many questions that lay at the ground of Manifesta Journal 12 on curatorial ethics; these questions ultimately also try to examine whether ethics is a secondary consideration for curatorial work, or inextricable from the process and ..... read more here

THERE IS AN ART MUSING PARADIGM SHIFT IN PROGRESS

CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE THE SITE
Galleries around the world are collaborating with GOOGLE to broaden the ARTmusing experience. In Australia the National Gallery of Australia is working with copyright holders to make their work in the NGA's collections more accessible. Apparently, if artists do not agree to their work being made accessible in this way, well it will be pixelated. There is always a bureaucratic solution available for CULTURALrecalcitrants isn't there!

Watch out for the galleries unwilling to play with GOOGLE and especially so for their reasons for not doing so. Chances are they'll be vacuous! ANYWAY the chances are that there will be some DUSTeating collections to watch out for too.

Banksy's Gift to the World for Christmas 2011

CLICK ON THE IMAGE TO ENLARGE
For all those out there who regard graffiti as a SIN think again. The world's GRAFFITIpope, Banksy, no longer has to lurk surreptitiously around in dark allies with his spray cans and stencils if he has something contentious to say. All he has to do now it seems is dial up a gallery and they'll welcome him inand especially so if he wants to challenge an idea like Christmas at Christmas

Banksy has just unveiled a new GRAFFITIsculpture, a bust of a priest with a pixeled-out face in the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, England. He, Banksy, is "responding to the child abuse scandals in the Catholic church, he had this to say “I’m never sure who deserves to be put on a pedestal or crushed under one.” ... Click HERE and HERE for sources

Banksy just keeps on giving and now he has gone 3D, one could even say multidimensional, with his placement of his  Cardinal Sin, in Liverpool's Walker Art Gallery in the UK. The Gallery and Bansk, or is it the other way round, collude to respond at Christmas to the "child abuse scandals that the church seems to be known for these days, features a face taken off and replaced by blank bathroom tiles. Banksy noted in a statement ... I'm never sure who deserves to be put on a pedestal or crushed under one." Banksy's Cardinal Sin sits in the gallery next to religious works dated from the 17th Century.

The BBC has quoted Banksy as saying, "I love everything about the Walker Gallery—the Old Masters, the contemporary art, the rude girl in the cafe. And when I found out Mr Walker built it with beer money it became my favourite gallery. The statue? I guess you could call it a Christmas present. At this time of year it's easy to forget the true meaning of Christianity—the lies, the corruption, the abuse."

MARKETING A MUSEUM WITH CITIZEN PHOTOGRAPHY

CLICK HERE TO GO TO SOURCE
The Bonnefanten Museum has decided, it seems, to not only engage with its visitors but also to actively engage them in the museum's marketing. 

Under the marketing banner  "A museum with YOUR view!" it asks visitors to send in pictures of the museum and get a chance to win a prize. Rather than issue its visitors with a list of DO NOTS & MUST NOTS it has pared down its rules to a minimum and ALLOWS ITS VISITORS TO TAKE/MAKE PHOTOGRAPHS/IMAGES quite clearly.

The museum intends publishing the received pictures on its website with attributions. Once a month, the most original picture will be selected out of all the sent images with the lucky ones wining a prize. Now there is win-win idea for you with visitors encouraged to ENGAGE with the museum and it artworks.

This not a particularly novel idea as there are many museums and art galleries who have overcome their overactive paranoia about people 'stealing images' from their collections. For example, in Tasmania, MONA's policy of allowing visitors to take photographs in the museum and its art is PAYING BIG DIVIDENDS you see the visitors are social networkers using their cellphones and BLOGS to share their MONA experience and encourage others to 'come see for themselves'
You just cannot buy that kind of advertising!
This is not only smart marketing it is VERY smart marketing!

CLICK HERE FOR INFORMATION ON THE MUSEUM

About The Museum 
The Bonnefanten Museum was founded in 1884 as the historical and archaeological museum of the Dutch province of Limburg. The name Bonnefanten Museum is derived from the French bons enfants ('good children'), the popular name of a monastery in Maastricht that housed the museum from 1951 until 1978.

In 1995, the museum moved to its present location, a building designed by the Italian architect Aldo Rossi. With its landmark cupola overlooking the River Maas, it is one of Maastricht's most prominent modern buildings.

Since 1999, the museum has become exclusively an art museum. The historical and archaeological collections were housed elsewhere. In 2009, the museum celebrated its 125th anniversary with the exhibition Exile on Main Street.

About The Collection
The combination of old art and contemporary art under one roof gives the Bonnefanten Museum its distinctive character. The department of old masters is located on the first floor and displays highlights of early Italian painting and Flemish and Dutch painting from the 16th and 17th centuries. Exhibited on the same floor is the museum's extensive collection of Medieval sculpture. The contemporary art collection is exhibited on the second floor and focuses on American Minimalism, Italian Arte Povera and Concept Art.

Extended Drawing focuses on a specific aspect of the work of American artists Sol LeWitt, Robert Mangold, Bruce Nauman and Richard Serra. The exhibition shows works in which line and drawing are taken beyond their original boundaries.


The exhibition brings four artists together, who belong to the 'classical' generation that gave direction to American art from the mid-sixties. These four artists have consistently used drawing in their zeal to strip art of easy (false) sentimentality and an over-emphasized subjectivity. Their endeavour to achieve universality leads them to a far-reaching objectification of visual means ... Click here to read more and for a virtual tour

ELEMENTO: Lirio Salvador's music & instruments


Lirio Salvador, a native of the Philippines has created a number of experimental instruments based on his own concept of ethno-industrial art/music. Lirio says "It's all about the merging of my native oriental culture and the present industrial environment that is slowly corrupting my native land". He creates his assemblage of musical instruments using day to day materials that are found in his present environment, including bicycle gears, drain cleaning springs and stainless steel tubes.

"It's an attempt to integrate music, performance art, sculpture, and audio art, all into one". His band Elemento produces oriental industrial noises and experimental music using his own instruments that include strings, electronics, winds and percussion.

Sandata ng lolo ni tatay Meaning "Weapon of my Grandfather's Father" the instrument was created Lirio Salvador, a native of the Philippines, using found objects. It is played like a cello, though it sounds nothing like one. The resonators are made from mixing bowls, and is amplified by a magnetic pickup.

Sandat 3RB Created by Lirio Salvador using "found objects". The Sandat 3RB is a bit like a fretless guitar, using regular guitar strings which stretch the door-spring to produce industrial oriental drone sound effects. It is a "free playing" instrument that can be played by anyone.

Planet Stainless Created by Lirio Salvador using "found objects", Planet Stainless is an improvised amplifier that creates natural vibrating effects when used. It is made from various pieces of stainless steel kitchenware, including pots and bowls, which create its sound effects.

LOOKING TOWARDS AN IDEAL 21st CENTURY ART MUSEUM

 ”Just Before. The Ideal Museum”
Zuzanna Janin, 2007

"Just before the winner of the competition to design the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw was announced, Zuzanna Janin travelled all over the country with her TeleviZJon project to ask artists how they would imagine the "ideal museum." Janin's para-documentary engages contemporary artists in the ongoing discussion about the museum. Made in artists' studios, the film shows the places where "it all begins," where art is made. Though an ideal museum can never exist, the question is in itself relevant and topical. By expressing their ideas and visions, artists will be able to co-operate with architects and curators in determining the shape of the future Museum of Modern Art."

What a breakthrough, a bureaucracy seeks to find someone who not only knows a few people but is interested in engaging with them to find out what they are interested in and interested in achieving. We can only hope that it is a catching idea.

A TRULY GREEN CHRISTMAS: Culture in Action

CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE IMAGES

This is something that municipal councils EVERYWHERE should pay attention to – its CAN DO and culture in action.

For a third consecutive year the city of Kaunas, Lithuania approached artist Jolanta Å midtienÄ— to assist with their annual holiday decorating. Recognizing the city’s somewhat dire financial state the artist challenged herself to build something that wouldn’t rely on any administrative funds set aside for the event. 

JUST LOOK WHAT THEY GOT ... an enormous 13-meter tall Christmas tree made from nearly 40,000 recycled green bottles and zip ties. At night the tree is lit from the inside resulting in a glowing, translucent, emerald green spruce that’s already making headlines across the country – soon the around the world too you would hope

Wouldn't it be wonderful IF next Christmas, or for some other festival, YOUR local council facilitated something like this!!

"This is what PATRIOTISM really looks like. Ms. Rainey is heroic. Those who take money to go to other lands to murder innocents so that corporations make trillions are NOT heroes. They are murderers, whoring murderers. Now they are back from their murderous years over there, to do the same to American citizens. They practiced on Pat Tillman. The opposite of patriotism is Corporate Greed that steals from citizens and destroys all freedoms, and murders anybody who is a TRUE PATRIOT. "

For those among us who worry about today's CHUCKaway society perhaps its worth taking a look at Dieter Zimmermann's work. He calls himself a simple "furniture maker", even though his work exhibited in museums and the artworld's galleries. Zimmerman is a graduate in industrial design but his work comes with a history, histories even, exposing wear and tear, age and weathered surfaces to the world. Zimmermann's skill is to do with putting the spotlight on the aesthetics found in his materials past.

Most of his works is unique. The pieces shown on his website are part of a collection that has been changing regularly for the past 20 year
