FLUXLIST: Devil's claw

I see this in Oklahoma cotton fields.  Like many seeds, just look to the
climate where they grow naturally, and lean a little bit that way, from a
"norm" you might otherwise use.

Marcel Broodthaers: (nothing short of hero worship there)

he's someone I've heard of and seen a few articles about but I still don't 
quite know what to think of him. Is there a particularly good book you'd 
reccommend?

That's my list for today...
What about yours?


not sure if I'd want to study with anyone, but here's some people I'd like 
to hang out with and see how they work...

Anselm Kiefer
Rirkrit Tiravanija
Jasper Johns
On Kawara

and really, any artist who was really passionate about what they are doing 
and about art.

FLUXLIST: artist residencies

2001-02-13 Thread NBBurr44

fun to think about this.i think what i'd like most would be to hang 
out in someone's (list following) studio for a day or a week, just watching  
--- with allowance to poke and pry into boxes and such for folks like this:

joseph cornell  
kurt schwitters
ray johnson (as with cornell, would want access to ALL those storage boxes!)
dieter rot

to watch anyone in process of making collage
to watch folks working on daybooks/journals --- like allison knowles, 
burroughs, peterbeard if he were enormously less sexist

would like to take long stroll along streets hunting for found treasures with 
wendy kramer, bob cobbing, david chirot, alex cook, anyone who loves the 
oddest scrap or gleam of possible material lying on the earth

oh jeez, this could go on and on, once you begin to think along these 
lines.!

FLUXLIST: International Tournament of Blockades call for entries

2001-02-13 Thread jason pierce

i would like to announce the upcoming 7th annual International Tournament of Blockades

Rules for Competition:

1. contestant must first construct a blockade. in order for it to qualify as a blockade
it must blockade something, ie  your door, a street, a river, your nieghbors door, 
thought*,etc.
2. materials: all submissions of blockades must be made out of "ordinary" inanimate 
materials
ie. sand, sticks, rocks, cement, bricks, gravel, conglomerate 
material, battleships etc.
3. in order to be awrded the winner said blockade must be extensively documented
accepted documentation only includes photographs. aspects of the blockade that 
need to be documented
 and will be judged on:
a. it's functionality, how well it succeeds in preventing the entrance or exit or 
general use of what it's 
blockading.
b. permanance: mostly the durability of the blockade, it's ability to withstand 
adverse climate changes,
 people that would want to remove the blockade, etc.
c. aesthetic merit: blockades will be judged based on how "pleasing" it is to the 
senses or how
 well it communicates it's function in relation to the 
society in which it exists.
  or other worldliness, it's structural qualities (ie 
style points)
4. all documentation must be submitted no later than july 12 2001, in order to qualify 
for any awards or prizes.
photographs can be sent via email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or snail to:
 
Jason Pierce
5626 woodrow ave #j
Austin, TX 78756

5. contestants may have as many entries as they please assuming each entry is a 
seperate blockade, and not 
different ones blockading the same thing. (ie 2 seperate blockades of the same 
door) any entries that fall
under the aforementioned criteria will be counted as a documentation of the same 
blockade thus one entry.

6. as well as being distributed various prizes all exceptional entries will be 
displayed on my web page
(www.onyxmirr.org)
1st place: winner will recieve 2$ for every contestant that enters 
(ie. 20$ for 10 contestants)
not to exceed 50$ cash, a congratulatory note 
hopefully from some at least
semi-famous person, and a 1st place ribbon of 
achievement.
 2nd place: winner will recieve a 2nd place Ribbon of Achievement, a 
congratulatory note from
  probably a somewhat less famous person, and a 
scholarship to MIT if said contestant
   qualifies for such and submits the neccessary forms 
to MIT and so forth
  3rd place: winner will recieve a 3rd place Ribbon of achievement, 
maybe a congratulatory note,
   and a no expenses paid vacation to Calcutta, 
probably the largest city in India
(population wise
   that is)
* the judging of "mental" blockades relies solely on the discretion of the panel 
judging the tournament. hence
   "mental" blockade entries could be disqualified, or awarded a prize. so "mental" 
blockade documentation
  should be submitted only with the understanding that the entry is submitted at 
the contestants own risk.

i look forward to viewing all the entries and want to wish all the contestants the 
best of luck. if you have any
questions feel free to email me at the above email address.

sincerely,

Jason Pierce
Coordinating Chairman,
Tournament of Blockades Committee

Hi Alex,
The one book I have is, I think, a really good and comprehensive one with
great examples of his work.  It's "Marcel Broodthaers" Walker Art Center,
Minneapolis, Rizzoli, New York.  "Published on the occasion of the exhibition
Marcel Broodthaers, organized by Marge Goldwater and Michael Compton for
Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, in association with the Palais des Beaux-Arts,
Brussels"

Yep, I'd like to hang out with Rirkrit for sure - the guy can cook  : )

Best, PK

I don't think this has exactly what you are looking for, but it's a lovely collection.
