January 7 until February 18, 2012 // ROBERTS & TILTON // Culver City

Roberts & Tilton is pleased to announce an exhibition presenting new and vintage photographs by Gusmano Cesaretti, curated by Aaron Rose.

The main gallery will feature work from the early period of Cesaretti’s career (1970s) in which he immersed himself in the East Los Angeles culture. His photographs of this era celebrated a sub-culture that had rarely been captured before. The exhibition will include twenty-four vintage, unique prints that have recently been discovered and will be shown for the first time in Los Angeles.

An Italian immigrant who moved to Los Angeles in the 1970s, Cesaretti quickly became fascinated by East Los Angeles. Inspired by the colors, people and graffiti that populated the East Side, he began to capture the vulnerability and uncensored quality of this area. Always honest when shooting his subjects, Cesaretti presents them as they are: violent, loving, confident, scared, full of life. It is this energy and conflict inherent in those who occupy the edges of society that drives his photographic investigations.

In the Project Space at Roberts & Tilton, Cesaretti visits a turbulent section of Colón, Panama. Approached with the same spirit and tenacity reflected in his previous works, these recent intimate photographs of children in an impoverished community offer a fresh perspective into this part of the world. Cesaretti, an outsider himself, became personally connected with the subjects he was shooting. The intimacy existing in the photographs is a result of the relationships that Cesaretti built with his subjects over time. Never forcing a situation, Cesaretti addresses his subjects with great concern and patience, allowing for an essential level of trust to be established. The resulting openness between Cesaretti and his subjects permeates the work, allowing the viewer access to a world that would otherwise be guarded against outsiders.

Gusmano Cesaretti was born in 1946 in Lucca, Italy and currently resides in Los Angeles, CA. Cesaretti has published two books: Street Writers – A Guided Tour of Chicano Graffiti, and Physical Graffiti-4x4=24. His photographs have been exhibited at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Recent exhibitions include Art in the Streets, at the Museum of Contemporary Art (Los Angeles, CA), and This Side of Paradise: Body and Landscape in Los Angeles Photographs, at The Huntington Library (San Marino, CA). His photographs are in the permanent collection at the Smithsonian Institute (Washington D.C.) and the Museum of Contemporary Art (Los Angeles, CA).

Roberts & Tilton is a Participating Gallery of Pacific Standard Time. This unprecedented collaboration, initiated by the Getty, brings together more than sixty cultural institutions from across Southern California to tell the story of the birth of the L.A. art scene.

After debuting their first official video for "The Eloise Suite" on The Village Voice a little over a month ago, Lightouts' latest release strips away the flashiness and acrobats in offering their vision of a Guided by Voices classic. While many GBV fans may quickly turn to Bee Thousand or Alien Lanes as their go-to records, Lightouts looked to 2004's Under the Bushes, Under the Stars - the last release with GBV's "classic lineup."

This is the first instalment of an ongoing project exploring memory and perception in the age of ones and zeros. Over the next few months, new remixes of the Sara and Jessica story will premiere. Each new remix plays with how technology and temporality - story and solipsism - effect our perceptions of a relationship.

de Appel arts centre, Amsterdam // Deadline : January 16, 2012 // Application Fee : None

"There is an abc-ignorance that precedes knowledge, and there is another learned ignorance that comes after and that is created through 'knowing' and that will equally like the first be annihilated and annulled by knowledge."

Michel de Montaigne [1]

Initiated in 1994, the Curatorial Programme of de Appel arts centre aims to offer young curators a condensed package of experiences and skills that can be seen as instruments to enhance the development of their professional career.

The curriculum revolves around theoretical issues in regular sessions with a tutorial team consisting of Floris Alkemade (architect,NL), Liesbeth Bik (visual artist, NL), Ann Demeester (director de Appel arts centre, BE/NL), Charles Esche (director Van Abbe Museum, UK/NL), Annie Fletcher (curator, IR/NL), Elena Filipovic (curator/writer, US/BE), Ann Goldstein (director Stedelijk museum), Henk Slager (philosopher/curator, NL), Lisette Smits (independent researcher/curator, NL), Jan Verwoert (art critic, DE)

The eight-month long Curatorial Programme exists in its current form since 2006, with a reshaped curriculum and an extended tutorial team. It encompasses a dense array of seminars, workshops, excursions (including a three-week research trip to a destination outside Western Europe), practice-related assignments and encounters with artists and art professionals.

de Appel arts centre offers :

The opportunity to get acquainted with de Appel arts centre from 'the inside', and get a better insight into the mechanisms and governing principles of a contemporary institution for visual arts.

The possibility to make a research trip outside of Western Europe and a minimum of 5 field trips, within Europe.

The opportunity to meet and have an exchange with a large number of artists, curators, critics and other international professionals through thematic seminars and informal encounters. Guest teachers over the past years have been e.g. Claire Bishop, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Gerardo Mosquera, Paul O'Neill, Paulo Herkenhoff, Jacques Rancière, Simon Sheikh, Pier Luigi Tazzi, Jan Hoet, Teresa Gleadowe, Tirdad Zolghadr, Ulay and Nina Möntmann.

The program pays attention to the history of exhibition-making, diverse curatorial practices, institution building and project management. The programme is characterized by a specific focus on 'curating in the expanded field', which is investigated through the polarity between 'free-lance' and 'institutional' curating and the notion 'context-responsive' curating.

Application Requirements :

1. A letter of motivation in which you state your personal drive as well as your expectations of the programme.

2. A proposal for a project (maximum 4000 words, approx 8 pages A4) including: concept and location of the project (main focus, explanation of context and relevance), the participating artists (including some image material), a realistic budget, a publicity plan (not obliged).

3. A CV, including an extensive description of your relevant working experience

4. Two written references of (former) tutors, professors or employers, in English.

On the basis of the submitted documents twelve candidates will be short-listed. These candidates will be invited to come to Amsterdam in the second week of March for an interview with an international jury, who will select the final six participants of the Curatorial Programme 2012/2013.

ARTICULE (Montreal) presents Mona Sharma "The Loss and Reclamation of Faith"

mondomm@mondomm.com (www.mondomedeusah.ca) — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 05:18:23 PST

December 9, 2011 until January 22, 2012 // opening hours : Wed - Sun 12 h - 17 h // ARTICULE // Montreal, Canada

La série en cours The Loss and Reclamation of Faith traite de la précarité de l'identité canadienne (ou québécoise). Divers facteurs, dont l'immigration croissante et la progression des technologies de communication, ont soulevé une mer de questions sur la valeur du nationalisme et de la religion, et sur les responsabilités du citoyen du monde, questions qui ont balayé le portrait dans lequel nous nous reconnaissions autrefois. Nous vivons à une époque où nous peinons à mesurer l'ampleur des événements historiques, étant donnée la quantité d'informations (pertinentes ou non) dont nous sommes à tous moments assailli. Nos réflexions nous portent souvent à douter de ce qui compose nos propres histoires. Mon but est de créer un environnement accessible et contemplatif où le spectateur peut songer à son propre rôle, dans un monde où les contextes sociaux se font de plus en plus complexes et volatiles. Je procède en construisant des récits d'après des bulletins de nouvelles et des faits historiques que j'estime pertinents pour tous les Canadiens, ainsi que des expériences personnelles qui apportent une dimension plus intime au travail. Par le biais de dessins et de sculptures molles cousues à la main, le tout au mur, au sol, ou accroché au plafond, je crée un environnement onirique, où des événements du passé coexistent avec ceux glanés des grands titres actuels. Dans cet espace densément peuplé, j'aimerais que le spectateur sente qu'on lui accorde la possibilité d'un échange avec les événements représentés, d'une manière qui lui serait autrement inaccessible.
