Inhaltsangabe
This anthology of essays, images and dialogues exploring contemporary art's engagements with risk--physical, social, political and aesthetic--brings readers into the conference from which the book takes its title, a third annual collaboration between the Getty Research Institute and the Southern California Consortium of Art Schools (SoCCAS). Some content there was so intense that it came with a warning label: "Contains graphic depictions of violence, nudity and bodily functions. No one under the age of 18 years will be admitted." The Aesthetics of Risk showcases conversations between Catherine Opie and Douglas Crimp, Paul McCarthy and Kristine Stiles, and presentations including "Aestheticizing Risk in Wartime: The SLA to Iraq." Featured artists include Brock Enright and Steve Kurtz. Featured critics and commentators include Jane Blocker of the University of Minnesota, independent curator Rachel Greene, Richard Shiff of the University of Texas at Austin and Stiles, Professor at Duke University. Editor John C. Welchman is professor of modern and contemporary art history and theory at the University of California, San Diego, and the editor of the most recent title in this series, Institutional Critique and After.

Softcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 17 x 24 cm, 300 pages, 16 b/w illustrations - Edited and introduced by John C. Welchman, The "Aesthetics of Risk" is based on the third SoCCAS symposia, held at the J. Paul Getty Museum. The anthology collects 16 essays and conversations about the nature and consequences of risk in and out of the art world, beginning with the premise that the modern subject is caught up in an ever-expanding network of predictive and proactive stratagems for the management of risk. Discussion includes general issues in the relation between risk and modernity (John C. Welchman, Gerda Reith); a case study from the Occupied Territories in the Middle East (Neve Gordon and Dani Filc); Andy Warhol's films (Douglas Crimp); several arenas and strategies for activist practice (Keiko Sei and Chris Hill, Critical Art Ensemble); social and aesthetic contexts for performance art in the UK (Chrissie Iles) and the US (Jane Blocker); experimental video in Brazil in the 1970s (Elena Shtromberg), and recent work in the US (Glenn Phillips). It also features interviews with Catherine Opie, Brock Enright and Paul McCarthy; a text by Henry Flynt; discussion of Barnett Newman, Bridget Riley, and Richard Serra (Richard Shiff); of recent art in Mexico City (Gabriela Jauregui); and of the technological reconstitution of risk (Jordan Crandall).
