The Critical Archive

The newest journal from the MIT Press, ARTMargins will foster awareness and conversation about contemporary art in an expanded field of practices. Within the fabric of a present moment characterized by different, and often incompatible, temporalities and agendas, ARTMargins wants to locate transnational commonalities and trajectories that connect, or divide, different regions of the world, bringing together artistic practices from (post-) transitional zones, while at the same time questioning the logic of transition itself: today the entire world is a margin in transition.

 

Abraaj Capital Art Prize 6 - for artists

ACAP 2014 will be the 6th edition of the Abraaj Capital Art Prize (ACAP), and there will be 5 winning projects commissioned. The annual prize is an opportunity for artists to put forward a proposal to create a new artwork. It must be ready by Art Dubai in March 2014, so the preparation time can include travel and research as well as production and shipping of the artworks to Dubai. Before submitting, artists need to have discussed their proposal with a nominator of their choosing, who is familiar with their practice and is happy to support the proposal. A guest curator will be appointed by March 2013 to work on the 2014 edition, and will be included in the Selection Committee for the artists.

9th Mercosul Biennial

The curatorial proposal for the Ninth Edition of the Mercosul Biennial conceptually focuses on the interaction between nature and culture, and the ways in which visual artists address unknown, unpredictable and seemingly uncontrollable phenomenon. The curatorial endeavor of the Mercosul Biennial considers the natural causes and effects that propel human travel and social displacement, technological advancement and world development, vertical expansions in space and transversal explorations through time. It involves looking at the affections these movements inflect, the affects that manifest. It entails dwelling, mining, investigating and exploring what is underneath and above the social realm.

Exhibition - Through the roadblocks

Through the Roadblocks exhibition consists of 12 collaborative artworks curated by Antonis Danos & Helene Black.

The challenge facing the curators has been the consideration of what is the art of a place or region or, more importantly, what are the problems associated with curating an exhibition from a politically and geographically defined region, namely, the Mediterranean and the Near East, a space punctuated with roadblocks and borders as agents of exclusion and obstacles to crossings. Nonetheless, people and ideas do cross roadblocks exposing the porosity and instability of these enforced demarcation lines. Many artists’ works from this region propose a transnational narrative, suggesting that notions of collectivity and shared identity are much more fluid and circumstantial than narratives of nationalism and/or ethnicity would have us believe.
