Namensgleichheit (1)
Judith Fischer · Christine Huber · Thomas Raab
Aus dem Alltag der Namensgleichen
Konzept & Realisierung: Judith Fischer
Dank an die GAV (Grazer Autorenvereinigung) für die finanzielle Unterstützung dieser Veranstaltung.

Monday, May 10, 2010, 6.30 pm
An diesem Abend ist COCO rauchfrei.

Sechs namensgleiche Personen – JUDITH FISCHER, CHRISTINE HUBER, THOMAS RAAB – stehen mit ihren Erkenntnissen, Erlebnissen, Reflexionen und Erfahrungen im Mittelpunkt dieses kleinen Symposions, das vielleicht der Anfang einer Reihe ist... 
Der Eigenname als Fiktion ist gleichzeitig eine Art (Werbe)Erzählung, ein Indikator, ein Label, ein Erkennungszeichen, ein Ausgangspunkt, ein Suchwort bei google. Der Eigenname zirkuliert als Marke und sendet jene ästhetischen, ökonomischen und ideologischen Signale, die er bisher öffentlich durch Produktion oder Rezeption auf sich versammeln konnte oder die er bereits mitbringt.
Was ist der Eigenname im Feld der Kunst: Eine Form des Eigentums? Eine Rechtsfrage?
Wie steht es um die Namensgleichheit unter unabhängigen Kunstproduzentinnen in Österreich?
Welche Erfahrungen werden gemacht, wenn der Eigenname (proprium) seine identifizierende Funktion einbüßt?
Was bedeutet die Zufälligkeit, das Gegebensein von zwei Personen, die den gleichen Namen tragen und im gleichen Feld (zeitgenössische Literatur, Bildende Kunst, Musik) tätig sind im Alltag?
Ist Namensgleichheit eine Quelle von produktiven Missverständnissen?
Und wenn ja: Wer profitiert von wem oder: Profitiert wer?

Tequila Sunset by Arye Wachsmuth



None may know
The sweetness of the joy which made his breath
Fail, like the trances of the summer air,
When, with the lady of his love, who then
First knew the unreserve of mingled being,
He walked along the pathway of a field
Which to the east a hoar wood shadowed o'er,
But to the west was open to the sky.
There now the sun had sunk, but lines of gold
Hung on the ashen clouds, and on the points
Of the far level grass and nodding flowers
And the old dandelion's hoary beard,
And, mingled with the shades of twilight, lay
On the brown massy woods - and in the east
The broad and burning moon lingeringly rose
Between the black trunks of the crowded trees,
While the faint stars were gathering overhead.

In Memory of Painting 2
A project by Rita Vitorelli und LAYR WUESTENHAGEN CONTEMPORARY

David Batchelor
As Good As It Was In A Can

Lecture

Thurdsday, June 25 2009, 7 p.m.

David Batchelor is an artist and writer based in London. He will talk about how many artists abandoned traditional forms of painting in the 1950s and 1960s and adopted materials and methods more associated with commerce and industry. In particular he will look at how this changed many artists use and understanding of colour, and how these changes continue to inform work being made today.

Recent exhibitions include Backlights, Galeria Leme, Sao Paulo, (2008); Color Chart, Museum of Modern Art, New York (2008); Unplugged, Talbot Rice Gallery, Edinburgh (2007); Extreme Abstraction, Albright
Knox Gallery, Buffalo, New York (2005); Shiny Dirty at Ikon Gallery Birmingham (2004), the 26th Bienal
De Sao Paulo (2004); Days Like These: Tate Britain Triennial of Contemporary Art, Tate Britain, London (2003).

Chromophobia, Batchelor’s book on colour and the fear of colour in the West, was published by Reaktion Books, London, in 2000 and is now available in eight languages. Colour (2008), an anthology of writings on colour from 1850 to the present, edited by Batchelor, is published by Whitechapel, London and MIT Press, Cambridge, Mass. David Batchelor is a Senior Tutor at the Royal College of Art, London.
