The Wallach Art Gallery at Columbia University’s Lenfest Center for the Arts is pleased to present Autumn Knight’s Nothing #26: The Potential of Nothing is Everything (wallach). This solo exhibition—referencing Jenny Odell’s 2019 book, How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy—hovers between the exploration of and reflection on the Italian phrase, dolce far niente or the sweetness of doing nothing. An experimental and multi-disciplinary project, Knight’s installations throughout the gallery include new videos accompanied by wallpaper derived from the artist’s drawings, a series of polaroids with images of the artist’s performances, object compositions, digital drawings, and a rotating platform. A highlight of the exhibition is a new, in-person performance by Knight on Sunday, February 26 at 3pm.

The notion of dolce far niente is approached through the lens of exhaustion, labor, and expectation that pairs this sweetness with the constant work involved in manifesting liberation. How do we do nothing and also do this necessary work? Over the past few years, and recently during a year-long fellowship at the American Academy in Rome, Knight has conducted research exercises and experiments, which have enriched her understanding of this concept. In Italy, where this status of inactivity was born and remains a unique cultural phenomenon, Knight was able to deepen her experience of the pleasure of doing nothing as a research experiment.

Throughout the exhibition, the art examines the spark or the intense motivation to do nothing and the eligibility of any action to initiate nothing. Knight’s video works reflect an exploration of nothingness in separate moments with various objects handled in ways that reject the labor of meaning. As a practice, the artist tends to use found materials within a given environment to produce collaged moments that make available individualized constructions of meaning for the viewers who choose that labor. Chosen for their ease of access, the objects—a pair of nitrile gloves, cups and bowls, a banana—assist in bringing to life a conversation between inertia, liveness, and sweetness. They lose and then regain their individual contexts through cycles of stillness, action, void, liveness, and nothingness. The objects are accompanied by new texts—observations, small poems, little plays, facts, prose—written during visits and residencies in Kingston, Jamaica; Venice, Italy; and Cambridge, Massachusetts. They blend fact, fiction, history, memory, observation, and a nod to gesture. The production of the videos is guided by aesthetic decisions associated with other Italian cultural outputs such as the Arte Povera movement in an effort to strip down in a move towards a dolce far niente. Nothing #26 operates as a companion to concepts explored in over a decade of the artist’s live performances, where the content performs the labor of anticipation and curiosity is driven by open ended dialogue with audiences. “Doing nothing” is a directive to relieve pressure on the viewer as they encounter the artist’s creative production. The viewer, through the labor of looking, decides what is worthy of seeing or what is worth the labor of the attribution of meaning.

Knight is the recipient of the Rome Prize (2022) and a Guggenheim Fellowship (2022). She attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (2016), and completed an MA in Drama Therapy from New York University (2010). Her work has been presented at various institutions including The Studio Museum of Harlem; Institute for Contemporary Art (VCU), Richmond, Virginia; Human Resources, Los Angeles; Akademie der Kunst, Berlin; Portland Institute for Contemporary Art; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; American Academy of Rome; On the Boards, Seattle; Abrons Arts Center, New York; The Kitchen, New York; and Shedhalle, Zurich.

Autumn Knight’s in-person performance takes place on Sunday, February 26, 2023 at 3pm in The Lantern at the Lenfest Center for the Art. Registration is required as space is limited; register here.

The exhibition and performance are open to the public, and provided free of charge.

Nothing #26: The Potential of Nothing is Everything (wallach), an immersive gallery-wide installation, was commissioned by the Wallach Art Gallery.  The Wallach Art Gallery’s exhibition programs are made possible with support from the Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Endowment Fund, the Charina Endowment Fund, and the gallery’s patrons.

Thank you.

3. Marisa Morán Jahn, FF Alumn, book launch at Parsons/The New School, Manhattan, March 7

Design & Solidarity

I’m thrilled to share that “Design & Solidarity”, a new book that I authored with architect Rafi Segal, is hitting your local bookstore as we speak! The book emerged from my ongoing collaborations with Rafi which is often inspired by the relationship between mutualism and design. During the global pandemic starting in Spring 2020, the world witnessed a diverse array of mutualistic organizations seeking to fundamentally restructure housing, care, labor, food, and more. Yet even before the COVID-19 pandemic, new forms of sharing had gained momentum to redress precarity and stark economic inequality. In this book, Rafi and I explore how design, art, and architecture shapes emergent forms of mutualism, fulfills their promise of solidarity, and ensures that these values endure beyond these moments of crisis. 

To build on historic precedents and draw on contemporary practices, we wrote this book in dialogue with some of the thinkers, entrepreneurs, and social change leaders who inform our work including Mercedes Bidart, entrepreneur; Arturo Escobar, activist and design anthropologist; Author, Designs for the Pluriverse; Jessica Gordon Nembhard, political economist and Africana scholar; Michael Hardt, political philosopher; Co-Author, Empire; Greg Lindsay, Futurist; Fellow, MIT Future Urban Collectives; Ai-jen Poo, co-founder of the National Domestic Workers Alliance; Trebor Scholz, scholar-activist who coined the term “platform cooperativism.” 

Why you’ll want to buy this highly readable, informative, and invigorating book — and recommend it to your friends:

You’re an artist, architect, or designer seeking practical and theoretical takeaways 

You’re a professor seeking to diversify your syllabus with readable texts by diverse authors published by an academic press. Yes, you know those are hard to find…

You’re a teacher or organizer seeking new resources for Black History Month (Feb), Women’s History Month (March), and more.

You’re hungry for ideas about mutualism, solidarity, carework, and economics through the lens of art, architecture, and design.

You love the cover I designed!

5. Nicolás Dumit Estévez Raful, FF Alumn, at University of Texas, Austin, 2023-24

Nicolás Dumit Estévez Raful, appointed senior Lecturer and Social Practice Artist-in-Residence at the University of Texas, Austin, Art and Art History Department (2023-24)

https://art.utexas.edu/news/get-know-nicolas-dumit-estevez-raful-department-art-art-historys-new-social-practice-artist

Nicolás Dumit Estévez Raful has spent his life becoming a local. Whether it be in the Bronx where he officially calls home, a small town in Michigan, a suburb of Barcelona, or in the Dominican Republic where he got his roots, Estévez aims to establish community with those around him and the city itself. His work is inspired by his surroundings, and seeks to truly know what different places are about. 

Alongside exhibiting and performing both in the US and internationally, Estévez holds an MFA from Tyler School of Art, Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, and an MA from Union Theological Seminary in the City of New York.

He may travel and work all over the world, but for the next year and a half, Estévez will assume the role of the Department of Art and Art History’s new Social Practice Artist-in-Residence. He will be teaching two classes this spring, “Art Within Walking Distance” and “Commuting into Community.” 

Both are about “getting to know how to embody [Austin] in different ways, how to be surprised by the city, how to be of service to the city, and how to get lost in the city,” Estévez says. “I think about walking as a political activist tool and a tool for change because when I go out in the city, my body, my presence is already changing things.”

“Art Within Walking Distance” will be propelled by, well, walking. The classes will walk through various areas of Austin, looking at places with public art, monuments, sacred sites, cemeteries, and other sites of public activity. “There’s something very powerful about walking because the body is so present in an immediate way. It’s like, ‘I’m here’ and the body’s not being cocooned by a car,” Estévez says.

“Commuting into Community” focuses on community-based art practices, largely led by a discussion on what outsiders can bring when creating art for a hyper-local community they become part of. The students will co-create with the people and spaces around them, and look into what co-creation means for audiences.

“I usually say that I no longer have an audience as an artist, although that’s not always true. I lost my audience because for the most part, everyone is co-creating with me,” Estévez says. “We’re co-creating through experiences, so there’s nothing to watch. We’re all involved in the process.” 

Although Estévez had only visited Texas for a short period of time before joining UT, he was inspired by the activism and the power of communities he met when traveling along the Texas/Mexico border. Now, he’s looking forward to learning from his students, and thinks that will have the biggest impact on his personal practice he’s been developing for the last 30 years.

“That’s something that I look forward to, hopefully, inviting the classes to engage with. Can we sit with each other? Can we sit with some of the thoughts that perhaps make us uncomfortable? Can we listen to one another,” Estévez asks. “I feel that that’s so much needed, especially now. Can I listen to those who might think differently from me?”

Estévez has exhibited and performed work at places such as Madrid Abierto/ARCO, The IX Havana Biennial, Prague Quadrennial, Queens Museum, MoMA, Princeton University, Rutgers University, El Museo del Barrio, Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts, Franklin Furnace, and The Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, among others. His residencies attended include P.S. 1/MoMA, Yaddo, and MacDowell.

Thank you.

Seventh Annual Exhibition of Artists Selected from the Gallery Review Program

December 19, 2022 — March 19, 2023 

A hybrid exhibition: by appointment and on Artsy.net

Garvey|Simon 

165 Seaman Ave 

New York, NY 10034 

(917) 796-2146

(New York, NY and Artsy.net) Garvey|Simon is pleased to announce Select 2022, the seventh annual exhibition of work by emerging and mid-career artists chosen by director Elizabeth K. Garvey through its innovative Gallery Review Program. This year’s artists are: Stephanie Beck, Susan Cohen, Pia De Girolamo, Cora Glasser, Leeah Joo, Debra Pearlman, Marcia Scanlon, Ellen Soffer and Carol Wax.

Garvey|Simon established the Gallery Review Program in 2016 to open a democratic dialogue between Artist and Gallery, a practice that has been anathema to art world orthodoxy. Garvey|Simon believes that artists “need to have a working platform to engage with dealers who otherwise might not see their work.” In the multi-tiered program, artists must pay an administrative fee for their work to be reviewed. “We want artists to think before they submit and be sure their work is appropriate for our program – the small fee puts some skin in the game and detracts from artists sending generic, mass submissions.” Finalists are given a private meeting with the gallery to consider their work for the exhibition. Garvey|Simon has cultivated successful partnerships with artists Margot Glass, Eileen Murphy, Karl Hartman, Linda Schmidt, Claire McConaughy, Jenifer Kent, and many others through the Select exhibitions. Several have gone on to have solo and group shows with the gallery.

In the progressive spirit of the Gallery Review Program,Garvey|Simon will be producing Select 2022 as a hybrid-exhibition: by appointment in our Viewing Room on the Upper West Side and online exclusively with Artsy. By using this vetted online marketplace, the exhibition will have an extended duration, and the opportunity to reach an increasingly global audience. The artworks will also be shown in-person in an intimate environment, providing a bespoke viewing experience. Though these works represent a diverse array of modes and aesthetics, they are united by their unwavering attention to detail, and unmistakable presence of the artist’s hand.

Thank you.

16. Shirin Neshat, FF Alumn, now online at Art and Obsolescence

In this episode, Art and Obsolescence are visiting with the one and only Shirin Neshat, who hardly needs introduction. If you’ve ever taken an art history class that covers video art, photography, international cinema, or for that matter contemporary opera, you’ve definitely seen Shirin’s work. Since her debut exhibition in 1993 at Franklin Furnace, Shirn’s work has offered a deeply personal yet universal perspective on womanhood, power, corruption, trauma, and the female body as the battleground of social and political manipulation. All of this in Shirin’s work is of course informed very much by her experience as an Iranian immigrant, who moved to the US at age seventeen just prior to the revolution, and since then has lived ostensibly in exile. These themes in her work however are quite universal, which is something Shirin spoke to expensively in our chat when we discussed her latest work which just so happens to be on view as we speak. Her latest exhibition at Gladstone Gallery titled The Fury is on view until March 4th, you’ve got a whole month to check it out, and this show features new works including a photo series and a large video installation in Shirin’s signature black and white with two channels of video on opposite walls, that harkens all the way back to her iconic 1998 video installation Turbulent. We discuss all this and more in our chat, as well as Shirin’s perspective on the ongoing protests and movement in Iran sparked by the death of Masha Amini — which of course is deeply related to the themes that have been present in Shirin’s work for decades.

You can listen to Shirin’s episode here: https://www.artandobsolescence.com/episodes/062-shirin-neshat

Aesthetics, Resistance, and Memory

Double book launch at Printed Matter Books NYC

With Andreas Huyssen and Gregory Sholette, 

Introduced by Dr. Nora Alter

Thursday Feb 16, 6:30pm

Join us for a double book launch and conversation with Andreas Huyssen and Gregory Sholette, presented and co-sponsored by Social Practice CUNY (SPCUNY). Approaching the politics of memory from two overlapping perspectives, Huyssen and Sholette will discuss their recent books, Memory Art in the Contemporary World and The Art of Activism and the Activism of Art. Nora M. Alter will give a brief introduction.

Visit Printed Matter and RSVP here: https://www.printedmatter.org/programs/events/1511

Huyssen’s timely work proposes that artistic interventions into traumatic social memories in the global South have created a ”new venue for political art today,“ while Sholette’s investigation pivots on the under-studied backstories of activist art. Both authors consider the positive and negative aspects of critical art practice at a time of hyper-aestheticized capitalism, rising authoritarianism, and widespread historical amnesia.

Huyssen and Sholette’s books belong to the Lund Humphries series New Directions in Contemporary Art, which can be found here: https://www.lundhumphries.com/collections/new-directions-in-contemporary-art

and volumes will be available for purchase (as well as at CAA Book Fair at the Scholar’s Choice table).

Andreas Huyssen is the Villard Professor Emeritus of German and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, where he taught beginning in 1986. He is the founding director of the university’s Center for Comparative Literature and Society and one of the founding editors of the New German Critique.

Gregory Sholette is an artist, writer, activist and professor of studio art at Queens College, CUNY where he co-directs Social Practice CUNY with Chloë Bass. He has participated in, documented, and written about activist art for over forty years.

Nora M. Alter is a professor in the School of Theater, Film and Media Arts at Temple University, and author of Projecting History: German Nonfiction Cinema, 1967-2000.
