Dysfashional, Paris / Berlin

Dysfashional Paris / Berlin
Exhibition and performances at the frontier of fashion and contemporary art

Paris 30th October - 29th November 2009
Passage du Désir 85-87 rue du Faubourg Saint Martin 75010 Paris

With Hussein Chalayan, Raf Simons, Bless, Maison Martin Margiela, Gaspard
Yurkievich, Antonio Marras, Bernhard Willhelm, Pierre Hardy, Kostas Murkudis,
Mathieu Mercier …


After two stages, one in Luxembourg to celebrate the European Capital of Culture in 2007, the other at the Mudac, Musée du Design et des Arts Appliqués Contemporains de Lausanne in 2008, the international exhibition DYSFASHIONAL renews itself and settles between Paris and Berlin.

The exhibition, which will be presented at the Passage du Désir in 2009 and at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin in 2010, will showcase a selection of pieces from the previous editions as well as a series of high-brow new productions by designers and artists from both Paris and Berlin.

The project will be completed by PARASITE, a hybrid space somewhere between shop and gallery, devoted to emerging artists and designers who explore the boundaries of contemporary fashion, and P.S, a show which invites choreographers to transfigure the posture imposed by clothes: the performance becomes a means to reveal how clothing shapes the body, determines our gestures and defines our identity.


DYSFASHIONAL considers fashion in the widest sense of the word. Rather than exhibiting clothes and styles, DYSFASHIONAL explores the broad range of materials that turn fashion into a way of representing personal identity and experience. Staged as a construction site, DYSFASHIONAL does not define fashion but tackles the seemingly frivolous yet vital realm of fashion by examining the approach of designers and artists from various backgrounds and invites us on a spectacular and striking journey, bringing us closer to a world in which the protagonists are not the objects but the creative process itself.

In the title Dys-fashional, the prefix "dys" indicates a disturbance, a discord within the system. The idea at the outset was to verify the dysfunctional dimension of fashion, that is to say, the elements that resist and clash with a "literal" definition of this world, as a simple collection of garments and accessories, as a production system for commercial objects, images and products to do with identity.


The idea is therefore to inverse the principles and to invite fashion designers to present instillations which reflect their imagination and creative universe, rather than their collections.

Through these environments, objects and films, a mutli-layered horizon constructs itself, where fashion appears beyond the objects which materialise it, as a field for experimentation or a state of sensibility in the making.


DYSFASHIONAL is not only a barometer for high-brow experimentation between art and fashion, but is also a bridge between Paris and Berlin, two fashion and art capitals.

October 29 – December 5, 2009
Opening Reception: Thursday, October 29, 6-8pm
@ P.P.O.W. Gallery
511 West 25th Street, Room 301, NY, NY 10001

P•P•O•W Gallery, in conjunction with Dotty Attie's exhibition, will present Looking Forward, Feeling Backwards in Gallery 2 curated by Capricious and artist Tammy Rae Carland. This exhibition is inspired by the forthcoming "Feminist Issue" of Capricious Magazine based on an open call for work about feminist feelings.

Empathetic vision, relentless loss, identity melancholia, compulsive hope, political depression, retooling trauma, femme euphoria, shameless shame, and feelings that have no names are all contending with one another in this issue of the magazine. The selection gives the personal, political, social and emotional equal weight and emphasizes a generational lens on hope, humor and limitless self-invention.

Capricious #10The Feminist issue

Capricious #10 - The Feminist Issue - "Looking Forward, Feeling Backwards." This special volume is curated by photographer Tammy Rae Carland.
Release date: End of November

Carland's focus from the beginning was to insist that the possibilities that exist in a dialogue on feelings inflame the specter of feminism. By simply asking artists/photographers what the world of feelings looks like, we received a lot of work that holds potential for transformative ideas and experience.
Empathetic vision, relentless loss, identity melancholia, compulsive hope, political depression, pin-prick humor, retooling trauma, shameless shame and feelings that have no names are all contending with one another in this issue of the magazine. The editorial selection gives the personal, political, social and emotional equal weight and emphasizes a generational lens on hope, humor and limitless self-invention.

Artists to be featured in this issue are: Ketuta Alexi-Meskhishvili, Basje Boer, Samantha Cohn, Judith Erwes & Paul Bower, K8 Hardy, Jason Hanasik, Jeanine Oleson, Pawel Jaszczuk, Jason Kalogiros, Morgan Levy, Andrea Longacre-white, Simone Lueck, Erin Jane Nelson, and Diana Scherer.

Printed using alternative energy in Winnipeg
Capricious #10 is 197mm x 270mm, full color, with perforated pages (perfect for pulling out and pinning on a wall).

EDIFYING, New York

EDIFYING
a series of performative lectures

Launch: 8pm Thursday October 22, 2009
at BHQFU: 225 West Broadway

The Bruce High Quality Foundation University is pleased to announce the launch of Edifying, a series of performative lectures. This event is free and open to the public.

In the lineage of John Cage's Lecture on Nothing (1950), or Robert Morris’s 1964 performance 21.3 where the artist lip-synched a film of art historian Erwin Panofsky reading hisStudies On Iconology (1939), this series will present a selection of contemporary performative events concerned with the dramatization of knowledge and its dissemination.

Beatrice Gross, curator of the series, along with a very special guest, will discuss the history and meaning of performative lectures, and present the first installment of Edifying with Pablo Helguera'sEnneatype Conference(November 19), Ellie Ga's Fortunetellers (December 10), and Christine Rebet's Poison Lecture (January 14).

The event will also feature a conversation with artist and educator Pablo Helguera, in conjunction with the release of his latest book Theatrum Anatomicum (And Other performance lectures)published by Jorge Pinto Books, NY. A book signing will follow.
"Helguera presents in this volume a multi-faceted collection of performance texts that cover a wide variety of subjects, ranging from political history to modern art. Working with actors to present scripted symposiums without the audience’s knowledge, presenting dueling lectures on topics as diverse as Mexican soap operas and 16th century Anatomical Theaters, or constructing a five-theme presentation in the form of a baroque fugue, the texts in this anthology reflect Helguera’s perennial quest to critique and reinvigorate the lecture format."

Victor Serge

Ce que tout révolutionnaire doit savoir de la répression
Auteur: Victor Serge
Edition: Editions Zones

Fichage, surveillance, filature, écoutes, infiltrations, manipulations et provocations ? autant de techniques policières que les régimes de tout poil ont toujours employées contre ceux qui entendaient contester l’ordre établi. Au lendemain de la révolution russe, les archives secrètes de la police politique tsariste ? la sinistre « Okhrana » ? sont tombées entre les mains des insurgés. Victor Serge les a dépouillées. De sa lecture de centaines de rapports et fiches de police, il a tiré une sorte de guide pratique des techniques de répression policière, publié pour la première fois en France en 1926. Si les technologies répressives se sont depuis considérablement modernisées, les grands principes de leur fonctionnement, dévoilés ici, demeurent toujours d’actualité à l’âge de la surveillance électronique. Après une analyse minutieuse du fonctionnement de la police politique et de la mentalité des « agents provocateurs », Serge pose la question du rapport à la légalité, et livre des conseils de base aux militants : comment repérer une filature, résister à un interrogatoire, déjouer des manœuvres de provocation… Loin de toute paranoïa, la leçon fondamentale de ce petit manuel reste éclairante : « Il n’est pas de force au monde qui puisse endiguer le flot révolutionnaire quand il monte, et face auquel toutes les polices, quels que soient leur machiavélisme, leur science et leurs crimes, sont à peu près impuissantes. » Ce document est éclairé par un avant-propos d’Éric Hazan en lien avec l’« affaire Tarnac » et une actualisation de Francis Dupuis-Déri sur les techniques contemporaines de contrôle policier.

Victor Serge, de son vrai nom Viktor Lvovitch Kibaltchiche (1890-1947), né en Belgique de parents russes réfugiés, milite d’abord à Paris au début du XXe siècle dans les mouvements anarchistes avant de rejoindre Moscou et de participer activement au déploiement de l’Internationale communiste. Révolté par la bureaucratisation du régime, il anime ensuite l’opposition de gauche antistalinienne. Incarcéré et exclu du Parti communiste, il finira sa vie en exil au Mexique.

L’affaire Toulaev
Auteur: Victor Serge

Dans la froideur d’une nuit moscovite, le camarade Toulaév, un apparatchik de haut rang, est abattu en pleine rue. L’enquête commence et la machine bureaucratique du parti-État stalinien enclenche ses rouages totalitaires. Les suspects, arrêtés et interrogés les uns après les autres, sont pris dans les mailles d’un filet qui étend ses ramifications jusqu’à Paris et Barcelone. Ces inculpés, dont Serge fait le portrait saisissant, n’ont en commun que l’innocence du crime dont on les accuse. Avec ce roman rédigé dans les années 1940, véritable classique méconnu de la littérature du XXe siècle, Victor Serge signe l’un des plus forts récits jamais écrits sur les procès de Moscou et les purges staliniennes, dont il offre ici une fresque panoramique complexe et belle malgré sa noirceur. Ici ce joue la comédie humaine d’un État policier, le roman noir d’une révolution trahie qui dévore ses propres enfants en leur faisant confesser des crimes qu’ils n’ont pas commis. Au-delà de sa dimension historique, le livre expose, avec une subtilité que seule permet la fiction, les mécanismes sociaux et psychologiques qui rendent possible la soumission à la tyrannie.

TAIYO ONORATO & NICO KREBS: The Great Unreal, Berlin

TAIYO ONORATO & NICO KREBS: The Great Unreal.
Monday, October 12th. 18h30.

During a space of three years, Taiyo Onorato and Nico Krebs traveled several months through the United States, working 'on the road' on the photo series The Great Unreal. The photographic work deals with reality and the fabrication of reality. The geography of America serves as both setting and fertile ground for the examination.

Mysticism and demystification are important aspects in this process, as is working with a rich inventory of visual icons that can be continually deconstructed and manipulated. The working method of both photographers is based on interventions prescribed mostly by happenstance and change. Through repetition and associative placement, the sometimes crude, sometimes subtle interventions begin to link to one another, establishing an exciting transformation of reality that only hesitatingly reveals itself to the viewer.

Together with book designers Megi Zumstein and Claudio Barandun, what emerged is an unmitigated picture book that makes a visual journey possible without any instructions. It comprises narrative image sequences that approximate the curiosity and restlessness of being on the move and, at the same time, depict associative connections with the American landscape.
