#CHRISTOPH H. MÜLLER AND EDUARDO MAKAROFF | Antropoceno! : A Conversation

Details
Erin Rizzato
Art

Taken from a conversation between Müller & Makaroff from Gotan Project, this interview presents the ideological backdrop to their new project Antropoceno!, where music and science come together in an urgent call for action. In 1998, the Swiss and Argentinian musicians met in Paris, where they started creating music inspired by tango and intertwined with rhythms from all over the world. In their new project the merging of folkloric and electronic music still survives, entangled with the voices, languages and music of many other ‘messengers’ who collaborate in this comprehensively human project.

#OLAFUR ELIASSON | The Ice is Leaving

Details
Erin Rizzato
Art

 These are the words of Iceland’s Prime Minister, as climate change begins to seep beneath the country’s glaciers and turn them to water. In 2018, in the midst of the urban jungle, twelve boulders of ice travelled all the way from Greenland to reside in a circle outside the Tate Modern, until the day they fully melted. The circle formation resembled the ticking imminence of a clock, the intimate space of a campfire, a little parliament of ice having to make an important decision. The installation ‘Ice Watch’ stemmed from a collaboration between artist Olafur Eliasson and scientist Minik Rosing, planted firstly in Copenhagen then in Paris and London, to raise awareness of climate change.

Art

By disappearing into his artwork, the artist Liu Bolin is not simply becoming invisible, but transforming into the message itself. Individual human beings have been the smallest unit in the fabric of history since the very start: they are in a mutually constitutive relationship with society which is concomitantly produced and producing, preserving the power to shape relationships and be shaped by them at the same time.

#MARY MATTINGLY | Your Waste Of Time

Details
Erin Rizzato
Art

As our environment is becoming more and more tainted with the remnantsof our consumption, it is essential to take a step back to reconsider how we engage with the objects we possess, remembering the journey that not only precedes them, but also will follow once they are outwith our control. Do objects come with responsibility? This is the question which defines our relationship with the material world and lingers behind the artistic devotion of Mary Mattingly, a visual artist based in Brooklyn, NYC.

Erin Rizzato
Art

There is a new concept of matter growing in the world of visual art that is becoming constantly more and more powerful but somehow less tangible, a faint presence which enables new perceptive canals in our sensibility that learns to decipher the language of transparency and its powerful meaning, so neglected in the past.

Details

Nature is being taken over by the little bad habits that we carry with us everyday and these may come in the form of a simple, lethal plastic straw. Actually, a lot of them. In fact this frightening wave of plastic that is starting to colonise the ocean is what moved a former miner engineer to resign and dedicate his life to photography, becoming the now famous artist and environmentalist Benjamin Von Wong.

Art

One crisp morning in October 2012 I was walking towards Berkeley Square in London Mayfair with my husband Sam Orlando Miller. We were just back from San Francisco where Sam's debut US solo exhibition The Sky Blue Series had opened to warm appraise. Sam's mesmerising sculptural mirror works had become sought after and their cultural and collectable value was firmly established. The autumn breeze was gentle. Crunchy golden leaves floated down from tall plane trees and landed on the pavement around us.
