Original essays and visual arts projects that explore the understudied breadth and richness of American artist Tony Smiths work in architecture.Against Reason: Volume 2 is the companion publication to Tony Smith Catalogue Raisonne: Architecture, the second in a two-volume, four-book printed publication series dedicated to Tony Smiths sculpture and architecture. Edited by curator and historian James Voorhies, Against Reason gathers newly commissioned essays together with visual arts projects by practitioners and critics, including Mario Gooden, Christopher Ketcham, Marta Kuzma, Peter LOfficial, R.H. Quaytman, and Jasmine Rault. Their contributions from a wide range of disciplines from American studies, architecture, and art history to theory, design, and visual artplace Smiths architectural design work in dialogue with contemporary culture, expanding perspectives on the artists canonical work and offering fresh twenty-first-century insights.The Against Reason books complicate and pluralize the very idea of the catalogue raisonne to challenge the monolithic place these forms have in writing art history by providing a more nuanced and historically rich lens through which the Tony Smith archive and his work can be read. In this case, the dual-publication project is an innovative approach to scholarship that situates Smith within contemporary culture, thus making evident his ongoing relevance in the fields of art and design.

Against Reason books refresh the conventional catalogue by offering critical commentary on the artist's works while expanding canonical views on modernism"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Original essays and visual art that reveal the depth and complexity of the sculpture of American modernist Tony Smith, placing his multifaceted practice in dialogue with contemporary voices.Original essays and visual art that reveal the depth and complexity of the sculpture of American modernist Tony Smith, placing his multifaceted practice in dialogue with contemporary voices.Against Reason, Volume 1 is published alongside the Tony Smith Catalogue Raisonne: Sculpture, itself the first of two volumes-the other focusing on architecture-documenting the artist's career. This book reveals the depth and complexity of Smith's oeuvre in sculpture while positioning its transdisciplinary nature in dialogue with contemporary practitioners. Commissioned essays by art historians and curators and visual projects by artists offer renewed perspectives on a variety of cultural systems, exploring the ongoing vitality of Smith's work. Their contributions reflect upon the modernist era in which Smith's work was produced to think through ingrained ideologies, revealing other, parallel modernisms and histories.Against Reason delves deeply into work by Smith that has not been previously parsed or discussed within art historical contexts. The book shuttles among visual art projects and texts, from Mario Gooden's essay exploring Smith's refusal to occupy the known quantities assigned to "artist" and "architect," to Saim Demircan's study of the re-presentation of Smith's work through its photo-documentation in the mainstream press, to Judith Barry's transformation of Smith's sculpture into the form of a flipbook and centerpiece "pop-up." Jenni Sorkin explores the influence of Smith's sculpture practice on his daughter Kiki Smith, while Yann Chateigne Tytelman casts a wider net to examine correspondences between Smith and the contemporary artists Joachim Koester, Mai-Thu Perret, and Cauleen Smith. Tom Burr closes the volume with a photo-collage project reflective of his ongoing engagement with Tony Smith's oeuvre.

Contemporary art exhibitions appeal to cognition as well as the senses, modeling a new and expansive understanding of global aesthetics.Contemporary art exhibitions appeal to cognition as well as the senses, modeling a new and expansive understanding of global aesthetics.In this original work of aesthetic theory, James Voorhies argues that we live in the shadow of old ways of thinking about art that emphasize the immediate visual experience of an autonomous art object. But theory must change as artistic and curatorial production has changed. It should encompass the full range of activities through which we encounter art and exhibitions, in which reading and thinking are central to the aesthetic experience. Voorhies advances the theoretical framework of a "postsensual aesthetics," which does not mean we are beyond a sensual engagement with objects, but rather embraces the cognitive connections with ideas that unite art and knowledge production. Cognitive engagements with art often begin with publications conceived as integral to exhibitions, conveying the knowledge and research artists and curators produce, and continuing in time and space beyond traditional curatorial frames. The idea, and not just visual immediacy, is now art's defining moment.Voorhies reframes aesthetic criteria to account for the liminal, cognitive spaces inside and outside of the exhibition. Surveying a wide range of artists, curators, exhibitions, and related publications, he repositions the aesthetic theory of Theodor Adorno, and draws inspiration from Rosalind Krauss and Fredric Jameson, to describe a contemporary "logic of the curatorial." He demonstrates how, even as we increasingly expect to learn from contemporary art, we must avoid an instrumentalist and reductive view of art as a mere source of information. As Voorhies shows through an analysis of two major global exhibitions, dOCUMENTA (13) (artistic director Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev) and Documenta11 (artistic director Okwui Enwezor), and of Ute Meta Bauer's curatorial work at the Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore, it is imperative for artistic research to retain its unique role in the production of knowledge. "Establishes the postsensual turn in visual culture and curatorial work, which embraces research, publishing, and knowledge production as central tenets of the new global aesthetics"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
