Les Nouvelles Configurations De L'Espace Automobile Méditerranéen
Analyzing the multinational firms' strategies (car and component makers), changes in automotive production and trade in the area, the paper discusses the hypothesis of the emergence of a fuzzy automobile space within the Mediterranean area. The Mediterranean automobile space cannot be described as an autonomous space, but as an intermediary level based on the European automobile system. The impact of the development of the automobile industry in CEEC – especially in Turkey – and on Northern Mediterranean countries, is analysed (Part 1) before studying the recent trends in the South, including the development of relationships within the Mediterranean area (Part 2).

Liam Gillick, Giorgio Griffa and Simon Starling are part of the group show, Colori, at the Castello di Rivoli/ GAM
March 14 – July 23, 2017
Press preview and opening: Monday, March 13, 2017
The exhibition L'emozione dei COLORI nell'arte will be presented in the Manica Lunga of the Castello di Rivoli Museo d'Arte Contemporanea and at the GAM Galleria Civica d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea of Turin. The public display includes an extraordinary collection of over 400 works by 125 artists and other practitioners from around the world, dating from the late 17th century to today.
"Over the past century, numerous exhibitions on color have been organized, starting from perception theories that became popular in the 1960s. This type of approach is derived from a universalistic notion of perception and its presumed objective value, quite distant from today's awareness of the complexity of meanings inherent to color which is closer to Goethe than to Newton," states Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev.
The exhibition investigates the use of color in art through artistic movements and research that stand apart from canonical histories on color and abstraction, with multiple accounts relating to memory, politics, spirituality, storytelling, psychology and synesthesia. Artworks come from museum collections such as the Reina Sofia in Madrid, MNAM Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, Paul Klee Zentrum in Bern, Munchmuseet in Oslo, Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, Tate Britain in London, and the Dia Foundation in New York, as well as from the collections of both the GAM-Torino and the Castello di Rivoli, and numerous private collections.
The precedents of modern abstract art are investigated through works by the followers of Hindu Tantric art (17th century) and the Theosophists (19th century) who used forms-color as sources for meditating and the immaterial transmission of thought. The starting point of theosophical abstraction is tied to the story of Annie Besant (1847–1933), who, circa 1904, wrote, "…to paint in earth's dull colors the forms clothed in the living light of other worlds is a hard and thankless task; so much the more gratitude is due to those who have attempted it. They needed colored fire, and had only ground earths."
By analyzing the different color theories that gradually took shape in the turbulent socio-political context that characterized the 20thcentury, L'emozione dei COLORI nell'arte reflects on a perspective that considers light, its vibrations and the world of emotions, while challenging the standardization of the use of color in the modern age (synthetic colors) and the digital era (RGB colors offered by various online palettes), a leveling that considerably reduces our ability to distinguish colors in the real world.
The group exhibition covers the history, inventions, experience and use of color in modern and contemporary Western art and non-Western cultures present in today's world. Through a multitude of accounts and presentations of important works of art, the use of color from various points of view is explored, including philosophical, biological, anthropological and neuroscientific perspectives.
The neuroscientist Vittorio Gallese, who along with Giacomo Rizzolati discovered mirror neurons, reflects on the emotional response not only to experienced actions but also to those only observed in an artwork, with particular attention to the relationship between the perception of colors "by subtractions" embodied in real paintings and the experience of reproduced images on screens where artworks are experienced through light. During the exhibition, a neuroscientific study lab will interact with visitors to the exhibition.

Jordan Casteel interviewed for Elle
"If anything, for me, it has affirmed why empathy and the sharing of stories continue to be necessary," Jordan Casteel explained. The Colorado-born artist's work has been lauded by big-time institutions like the Museum of Modern Art and the New York Times, and from our conversation, it's easy to reconcile thoughts of the little, craft-loving girl raised by a justice-chasing family with the cerebral, Yale-educated creative she is now. Here, Casteel answers our questions on building a career, weathering criticism, and more.
For as long as I can remember, I have been drawn to the act of making. I was the child who would ask for a box of "stuff" from Michael's for Christmas. That box could include things like pom-poms, popsicle sticks, paint, construction paper, and, always, a glue gun. It would bring me hours of pleasure in exercising my imagination. I was making "art." I had a part of our family room dedicated solely to my crafts. That space was sacred. It was one place where my brothers weren't.
In general though, art was always around growing up. My grandmother, Margaret Buckner Young, was on the board of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and moved to Denver to be near her grandchildren. Although I only ever knew her as "Grams," she had left behind a full life supporting the arts in New York City. She was collecting the works of Romare Bearden, Jacob Lawrence, Hale Woodruff, and many others before they had established names within the art canon. I was surrounded by this artwork every day, though I am not yet sure where or how I fit into that.
Why was going to a women's college important to you?
If you had asked me as a junior in high school if I would ever consider going to a women's college, I would have laughed. Having grown up with two brothers and all male cousins, I felt most comfortable in my relationships with men. Grams had taught educational psychology at Spelman College and my love and respect for her was profound, so the potential of following in her footsteps was something I wanted. However, I surprisingly found my home on the campus of Agnes Scott College [in Decatur, GA]. Agnes is an institution that had not previously been on my radar, but it took my breath away. I immediately changed my application to early decision. (I have made most of my major decisions in my life by trusting my gut.) My time there was life-changing.
"I came out of my shell and explored the power of my own voice, which I believe could have only happened in a space where I felt the confidence and encouragement of women."
Your body of work and professional CV, including work with Teach for America, make it obvious social justice is important to you. Where is that rooted?
My passion for social justice runs very deep. I come from a family where having compassion for others and fighting for equity is a non-negotiable. My grandfather was born to educated parents in Kentucky—a rarity for black families. His father, my great-grandfather, was the president of the Lincoln Institute, an all-black boarding high school that had a secret curriculum where they were educating students outside of the meager societal expectations. My grandfather, Whitney Moore Young, Jr., went on to serve as director of the National Urban League from 1961 to 1971, working as one of the "Big Six" during the Civil Rights Movement. He married my grandmother, Margaret, an educator and writer who went on to serve on many boards (Lincoln Center, Metropolitan Museum, Dance Theatre of Harlem, Girl Scouts, and New York Life Insurance) and write her own children's books. My mother, Lauren Young Casteel, is the current President and CEO of the Women's Foundation of Colorado and was the first black woman to head a foundation in Colorado and the only person in Colorado to run three foundations.
All of which is to say: My legacy in education and philanthropy is undeniable. I think for much of my life, I did not know how this personal family history would fit into the life I wanted for myself. It wasn't until college that the potential of merging my interests in education, social justice, and art presented itself, but the root of those passions has always felt clear.
When I was accepted into the MFA program at the Yale School of Art, I knew that the opportunity had the potential to take me from painting in my bedroom in Denver to developing a career. But my time in that program was really grueling. I did not graduate with a sense of confidence in myself or the work, however, I was affirmed that hard work could pay off. I have always been really ambitious by nature, but being an artist, I have the opportunity to put my skills as a learner to good use. I continue to believe strongly that nothing can happen without the work. It is because of the work that I have had the opportunities I have had. [Art] is a practice, and with practice comes growth through failures and successes. I am in this profession for the long haul. I have to exercise patience and put all of my skills to use in order to ensure a thoughtful career.
"What does it mean to offer someone visibility in a world that is constantly rendering their humanity invisible?"
Have you experienced disappointments that turned out to be positive in the end?
One of my dearest friends, artist EJ Hill, often uses roller coasters as a metaphor for life and being an artist, and I cannot think of a better example of the highs and lows that come along with this work. Being an artist is about learning to navigate the lows in order to feel the highs again. Of course there have been moments where I wasn't accepted into a residency I really wanted or had a tough studio visit. But with each "fall," I have come up a little stronger, a little more prepared for the next. Developed grit. It feels similar to the notion of mistakes. Hindsight is always 20-20.
Looking back on moments where I thought it was impossible to stand again and seeing that not only have I stood, but I have stood much taller and with more humility and patience than before. At some point, we all have to relinquish our fears to a process. A process that may just be out of my control, which is undoubtedly terrifying. Much like a roller coaster.
How do you think about creating work meant to be digested by both an audience and critics?
Learning to sift through information is a skill we all can and do benefit from. I'm constantly exercising my will to determine what does or doesn't affect me and my practice. I believe there is great power in criticism and reviews, but greater power in our ability to determine its importance on a personal level. Dialogue is power. Listening is imperative. But when it is me, alone in the studio, everything else disappears. I have to listen to my hand. Noise is just noise.
Painting for me is about seeing. It's about slowing down enough to either see something you haven't seen before or see yourself authentically considered and represented. I have been lucky enough to see the moment when some of my sitters see themselves on canvas for the first time, [like] when James's (2015) wife thanked me for seeing him as she has always seen him and for sharing that. What does it mean to offer someone visibility in a world that is constantly rendering their humanity invisible? I relinquish a ton of control over how a painting is perceived once it leaves my studio, however, I can and do work really hard to make sure it is full of empathy and respect.
So many of your paintings are of men—did you decide to focus on males over females?
For me, my work is about humanity. It was never an explicit thought to paint men over women. I do not think women are absent in my work. As a woman myself, I feel utterly present, every stroke has been filtered through my own personal narrative and experience. My desire to represent my community feels clear: as a sister, daughter, and friend.

Haris Epaminonda: VOL. XXII opens at the Aspen Art Museum
In her Aspen Art Museum exhibition, Berlin-based, Cypriot-born artist Haris Epaminonda expands on her practice of carefully arranging found images, objects, and film/video footage together in space. Interested in how objects' meanings are transformed when placed in new environments, the artist reorganizes and reconfigures artifacts from different cultures and eras—such as found book pages, textiles, carvings, and statues—into new sculptural and architectural constellations. Developed on-site and in direct response to the gallery architecture, Epaminonda's work uses abstraction and fragmentation to create new narratives and readings, collapsing the temporal distance between the past and the present. The end result is a subtle transformation of our understanding of material, space, and form.
VOL. XXII was conceived alongside Epaminonda's recent, ongoing project—in collaboration with Point Centre for Contemporary Art, Cyprus—in which she examines architecture's ongoing relationship with history, topography, and the construction of narratives. Acting more as an appendix of an imaginary museum, the project comprises a synthesis of multiple architectural elements, ornaments, and details of an interior and exterior scenery. Over time, these various fragments—a column, an entrance, a courtyard—will come together and shape the image of a place.
AAM exhibitions are made possible by the Marx Exhibition Fund. General exhibition support is provided by the Toby Devan Lewis Visiting Artist Fund. Additional support for Haris Epaminonda's VOL. XXII is provided by the Etkin Family Digital Media and Moving Image Fund. The production of new work was done in collaboration with the Point Centre for Contemporary Art, Nicosia, and with the support of the Cyprus Ministry of Education and Culture.

READING BY CAConrad, March 3, at the Schinkel Pavillon in relation to the exhibition, Jason Dodge/ Paul Thek
In the final installment of the Schinkel Pavillon's exhibition series, Porzellan und Vulkan, Paul Thek's major drawings and Jason Dodge's installation will be on view at the Schinkelklause.
The paralells between Thek and Dodge's work in material and meaning are unmistakable. In addition to their exhibitions, the collaboration will include readings by poets Dodge has published, and a workshop from Thek's teaching notes for his 4D class at Cooper Union 1978-1981— all of these elements contribute to the interweaving between the artistic disciplines and embellish the notion of collaboration.
READING BY CAConrad
CAConrad is the author of nine books of poetry and essays, including The Book of Frank, A Beautiful Marsupial Afternoon, ECODEVIANCE: (Soma)tics for the Future Wilderness and the forthcoming collection, While Standing In Line For Death. He is also the subject of the documentary The Book of Conrad (Delinquent Films, 2016).
In the past years CAConrad and Jason Dodge have collaborated on several projects including The Width of a Witch, an exhibition with both a visual and written dimension at the Mercer Union in Toronto and Mount Monadnock Transmissions (Sharking of the Birdcage) both published by 500places.
The reading by CAConrad is the concluding event related to the exhibition Paul Thek and Jason Dodge which closes on March 5th.

Diego Perrone interviewed by Charlotte Laubard about Self Portraits and Herbivorous Carnivorous in Mousse
February 8, 2017
CHARLOTTE LAUBARD: There was a small thing that happened years ago when we both lived in Turin that seems to me to say a lot about your relationship with the world. We went to the cinema to see a film. I don't remember the film, but I remember very well that at the film's emotional apex, when everyone had tears in their eyes, you started laughing uproariously. And the more hyperbolic the cinematography became in creating these emotions, the more you laughed. At that point the people sitting beside us got angry: they were furious because they had been torn from their voluntary suspension of disbelief, and we actually had to run out of the cinema. What is your relationship to belief?
DIEGO PERRONE: It is a very vast argument, but I am certainly fascinated by the immersive aspect that belief can produce. And above all I am interested in the languages and tools that make this belief possible. Therefore, my relationship with belief is concrete but at the same time irrational. I think I nurture myself with the wonder that produces this phenomenon in order to create a different effect. "If I could only remember what comes after 'abra' I would make the whole audience disappear" is a famous quote from Harry Houdini, who besides being known as a magician was also known for unmasking fake spiritualists.
CL: It seems that your work is a constant attempt at pushing the limits of what is representable, from the relative common acceptance of things to the meaning of images. In recent works that you are showing right now at two galleries, Casey Kaplan and Massimo De Carlo, drawings and sculptures of skulls invaded by fish and tractors, you go beyond the convention of inserting a foreign sign in someone's head. An image that in the public imagination represents the activity of imagining, like that man "is thinking of a fish or of a tractor." In the case of your sculptures, on the other hand, the fish float on the skin and the tractors plough through the epidermis. How are these images born?
DP: The tractors work the skin and render it fertile like soil, and the fish make it liquid and muted, like sound underwater. What happens in these two different kinds of landscapes happens in the intermediary space between the inside and the epidermis, as in how someone who is underneath a blanket still allows their volume to be seen externally. I remember Shivers (1975), an old David Cronenberg film, where in Italian the title is translated as "The Demon Under the Skin."
CL: Speaking of this, I find a curious tension in your work. On the one hand it seems like you think in images, yet on the other your work expresses a strong interest in materials and the manipulation of those materials. Can you tell me about your recent relationship with a material that is very difficult, namely glass?
DP: Above all, in these most recent sculptures, it is very important that each one is a single block of glass. You can look inside the composition of the material itself and nothing is hidden, the profundity of the piece is nude. Each of these pieces was thought of as a low relief, but being composed out of more types of glass with different colors, the first thing that I notice looking at them is the spots of color within them. This means that you create an ambiguity between the sculptural mass and the image that is, by its very nature, two-dimensional.
CL: A complicated process. Where did you make the sculptures, and how did you work with the company specializing in glass manufacturing?
DP: When I first contacted Vetroricerca, the company in Bolzano that worked on the production of these recent sculptures, I was completely inexperienced and unaware of the limits and possibilities of glass. I worked with them and tried to bring the material and the technical aspects to the extreme, staying at the limits of what was possible. There are measurements, weights, and times to strictly respect; even the molds must have precise characteristics that have to be respected. It is not a material that you leave to behave as you think it will. I had to accept many compromises, and the challenge was finding solutions to circumvent the rigidity of the material and to rediscover the strength of my vision. In the final result one can perceive a kind of internal natural harmony that was completely unexpected but comes from meticulous technique, a precise determination in which the pictorial results are enhanced by chance.
CL: I always had the feeling that your visual imagery tended irremediably toward something of the obscene, in the literal sense of os skené (outside of the scene), meaning something that would not be suitable for the public. I think, for example, of the girl that has her boyfriend cut her ear off, Angela e Alfonso (2002); of Totò nudo (2002); of the dog dying on the outskirts of a city, Vicino a Torino muore un cane vecchio (2005); or of the imaginative strength needed to formalize the instantaneous moment of casting a bell, an underground process (2007). Now you talk about "natural harmony," of "pictorial results." What to you hope to achieve in this phase of your artistic path?
DP: As you rightly said earlier, my practice is very much based on visual results. In this case the term "pictorial" was intended. Thinking of the transparency of these sculptures and therefore of light that normally serves to make surfaces legible, in this case it goes inside. The texture is read with difficulty, as are the volumes; the plastic requirements are lost in becoming solid and the totality of the mass becomes heterogeneous. I would say "hologram" rather than "monument," and "screen" rather than "relief." I am not sure if all of this relates directly to being "outside of the scene," but I think that both the drawings and the sculptures are almost empty, almost like holes in the environment.
CL: This reference to emptiness is intriguing! This way we can come back to one of your works that I consider seminal: I pensatori di buchi (The Ponderer of Holes, 2002). That also seems to me like an attempt at representing emptiness, something that is itself outside of the scene of life, the well that we seek to fill unceasingly and that generates all belief, both religious and artistic.

Art in America Reviews Diego Perrone, Self Portraits
Glass is a material long associated with illumination, enlightenment, and the divine. The cast glass sculptures featured in Italian artist Diego Perrone's exhibition "Self Portraits" hold out the promise of personal revelation. Elegantly displayed on white plinths, many of the untitled works (all 2016) are vaguely cranial in shape. But instead of offering a transparent glimpse into the seat of reason and intellect, the sculptures appear as elegant monuments to opacity. Perrone adulterated the glass forms by adding minerals and pigments in uneven patches during the casting process. Brilliantly colored crusts give way to clouds of mellow hues that seem to diffuse slowly through the glass. Other aspects of the casting process were executed with mechanical precision. Crisp and detailed renderings of ears, koi fish, and tractor equipment emerge from the works' surfaces. These forms have previously appeared in Perrone's sculptures, and here they look almost like stock images rather than personal symbols. More reminiscent of Medardo Rosso's impressionistic sculptures than stained glass windows, Perrone's "Self Portraits" embody a notion of self that melds alluring display and an act of withdrawal.

Jonathan Monk, The Sound Of Laughter Isn't Necessarily Funny, opens at The Gallery at De Montfort University in Leicester, UK
Jonathan Monk is one of the world's leading contemporary artists. He lives and works in Berlin and his work is held in private and public collections across the globe.
In this exhibition, three sculptures inhabit the space – a grand piano, a pair of grandfather clocks and a dismembered doll that has passed through the artist's family. Each of these is mechanically animated and their actions mark the passing of time in seemingly arbitrary ways. All the objects have a gothic resonance to them. Their animation suggests human presence, as the piano plays itself and the dolls eyes flicker open.
This is Jonathan Monk's first exhibition in Leicester, the city in which he was brought up. Previous solo exhibitions include Museo d'Arte Contemporanea di Roma, Rome, Irish Museum of Modern Art, Dublin, Palais de Tokyo and Musee d'Art Moderne, Paris, and Institute of Contemporary Art, London.

A new installation by American artist Sarah Crowner will open at The Wright restaurant, located in the landmark Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, on January 29. Commissioned specifically for The Wright by the Guggenheim, the project consists of four works that will enter the museum's permanent collection. The project is the second in a series of interventions in the restaurant that the museum opened in 2009 with an installation by Liam Gillick, with the intention of activating this social space as a platform for creative production.
Sarah Crowner physically dissects and reshapes the legacy of modernism in works that at first appear to be geometric paintings but are in fact meticulously sewn canvas collages. Informed by the interdisciplinary practices of earlier visual artists who engaged the applied arts, poetry, theater, and dance, she merges the rarified tradition of abstraction with techniques and materials common to decor and craft. Crowner is also interested in a painting's potential to function as an environment or performative setting rather than a discrete object on a wall, frequently juxtaposing her canvas works with interventions to the floors and walls of a gallery.
Crowner's installation for The Wright restaurant directly immerses the viewer in a dynamic composition. A curving backdrop formed from stitched, painted canvas is suspended along one of the walls. In line with the artist's focus on reviving overlooked currents of 20th-century abstraction, this work splices and repeats motifs from a woven tapestry that Swedish artist Lennart Rodhe (1916–2005) created in 1961 for the sumptuous Operakällaren restaurant in Stockholm. Handmade terracotta tiles with white, blue, and yellow glazes comprise three additional works that complete the overall interplay of color, line, and pattern. Utilizing the architectural elements of a functional, inherently social space, Crowner expands the notion of what constitutes a painting and considers how the surrounding human activity might alter the experience of her work, and vice versa.
This presentation is organized by Katherine Brinson, Curator, Contemporary Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and Ari Wiseman, Deputy Director, Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation.
Crowner's installation in The Wright was made possible through the annual support of the Guggenheim's International Director's Council (IDC), as well as generous additional support provided by Mr. and Mrs. J. Tomilson Hill. Founded in 1995, the IDC is devoted to expanding and strengthening the museum's contemporary collection in all mediums. The group is comprised of art collectors from around the world who share a commitment to the museum's mission, which includes acquiring and preserving a collection that reflects the most important aesthetic achievements of 20th- and 21st-century visual culture.

Mateo López's first solo U.S. Museum show is now open at The Drawing Center, New York
January 20 – March 19, 2017
Mateo López: Undo List is a multidisciplinary installation that will be the Colombian artist's first solo museum exhibition in the United States and that will feature works on paper, sculpture, performance, and projected film. Trained as an architect in his native Bogotá, López has long used drawing as a conceptual tool to cross disciplines and aesthetic categories. Drawing is more than an artistic medium for López; it is a way of conceiving and indeed inhabiting the world. Simple drawn constructions that can be manipulated in various ways; trompe l'oeil paper renderings of two and three dimensional objects (for example, near-exact replicas of lined sheets of paper); drawings made out of the leftovers produced by cutting into other works—these are just some of the devices López uses to reveal that, as he says himself, just as everything manufactured was at one point a drawing, so too, "an image is not flat; it is an atmosphere, it contains time and space."
Organized by Claire Gilman, Senior Curator
Mateo López: Undo List is made possible by the support of the Rolex Institute, Estrellita Brodsky, Ana Sokoloff, and Ann and Marshall Webb. Additional support is provided by the Embassy of Colombia in the United States through the Promotion Plan of Colombia Abroad of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Colombia.
In tandem with Mateo López: Undo List, The Drawing Center will host a series of performances the following Thursdays:
January 26, February 2, March 2, and March 16: performance with dancer and choreographer Lee Serle.

Jordan Casteel (b. 1989, Denver, CO) received her BA from Agnes Scott College, Decatur, GA for Studio Art (2011) and her MFA in Painting and Printmaking from Yale School of Art, New Haven, CT (2014). Using her own photographs as a source, Casteel paints intimate portraits primarily of African American men in domestic environments and in street scenes. Casteel's subjects are known to her, whether familial, from her local community or newly acquainted through the process of sitting for a photograph (such as "Glass Man Michael" who has a sidewalk shop on 125th street outside Casteel's former studio at the Studio Museum in Harlem). With vivid tones, shadowy contours and swift, gestural brushwork, texture merges with color in compositions that remain fluid between figure, object and background. Though staged and sourced from reality, Casteel's proportional and perspectival deviations cast her subjects in indicative surroundings that are treated with similar degrees of deference. Authentic in her representations, Casteel is astute in communicating temperamental identities through facial expressions, the subtle placement of hands, and informal stances. With frontal positioning and direct eye contact, the larger than life-size portraits level the playing field between subject and viewer.
Jordan Casteel has participated in artist-in-residence programs at Yaddo, Saratoga Springs, NY (2015); Lower Manhattan Cultural Council Process Space, Governors Island, NY (2015); The Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, NY (2015); and is currently an awardee for The Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program, DUMBO, NY (2016). The artist has recently participated in exhibitions at venues such as Diggs Gallery, Winston-Salem State University, North Carolina (2016); James Cohan, New York (2016); HOME, Manchester (2016); Vicki Myhren Gallery, University of Denver School of Art, CO (2016); Gund Gallery Gambier, Kenyon College, OH (2015); and Sargent's Daughters, New York (2015) (solo). From 2015 to 2016, Casteel's work has been featured in publications such as Artforum, New York Times, Flash Art, New York Magazine, FADER, Time Out New York, The New York Observer, Interview, and Elle Magazine. On January 28, 2017, Casteel will present a solo exhibition titled Harlem Notes at the Harvey B. Gantt Center, Charlotte, NC. Her inaugural exhibition with Casey Kaplan in New York is scheduled for September 7, 2017. Casteel is an Assistant Professor at Rutgers University-Newark. She lives and works in New York.

Award ceremony: Monday, April 24, 2017, 6:30 p.m.
Exhibition: April 25 – July 30, 2017
The Gesellschaft für Moderne Kunst am Museum Ludwig will present the 2017 Wolfgang Hahn Prize to Trisha Donnelly. With this prize, which has been awarded annually over the past twenty-three years, the organization will recognize the extraordinary oeuvre of this artist, who was born in 1974 in San Francisco and now lives in New York.
The prize includes the acquisition of a work or a group of works by the artist for the collection of the Museum Ludwig. An exhibition of Trisha Donnelly's work will also take place at the museum, and a catalogue will be published to commemorate the award.
The jury for the 2017 Wolfgang Hahn Prize included this year's guest juror Suzanne Cotter, director of the Serralves Museum of contemporary art in Porto; Yilmaz Dziewior, director of the Museum Ludwig; Mayen Beckmann, chairwoman of the Gesellschaft für Moderne Kunst; as well as Gabriele Bierbaum, Sabine DuMont Schütte, Jörg Engels, and Robert Müller-Grünow as board members of the Gesellschaft für Moderne Kunst.
Mayen Beckmann, chairwoman of the Gesellschaft für Moderne Kunst, offered the following statement on the selection of the artist: "The jury was enthusiastic about Trisha Donnelly's diverse work, which resists interpretation. With sculptures, drawings, performances, films, and photographs, she creates works that lead us as viewers into entirely different spheres of perception. Her consistency and radical approach to questions of aesthetics or reception were an important reason for honoring Trisha Donnelly with the Wolfgang Hahn Prize. This is very much in keeping with the spirit of Wolfgang Hahn, who saw the connection between life and art in the avant-garde."
Suzanne Cotter, director of the Serralves Museum of contemporary art in Porto: "The Wolfgang-Hahn Prize is one of the most inspiring awards for contemporary artists of its kind, and it is with enormous pleasure that the prize this year goes to Trisha Donnelly. Trisha Donnelly is without doubt one of the most compelling artists of our time whose work offers entirely new ways of experiencing and thinking about form, at once synaesthesic and disruptively transporting. As an artist she occupies a position of committed resistance to the easy appropriation of art as something contained and ultimately controllable. At the same time, the extraordinary generosity of her work, that touches on the visual – in particular the photographic – , the spoken, the aural and the physical, is electrifying in its permission"
Yilmaz Dziewior, director of the Museum Ludwig: "For us as an institution whose mission is to collect contemporary art, the presentation of the prize to Trisha Donnelly is excellent news. I have followed Trisha's work closely for years; she brings the problem that artists have long worked on— namely, what the very concept of an artwork means—into the future. Her independence and resistance to all forms of appropriation are essential elements of her work, as is her ability to adjust to the specific exhibition venue and context, only to overturn everything, to dispense with any context of meaning, and to directly appeal to the viewer. The Wolfgang Hahn Prize thus once again sets new standards by recognizing an extraordinary and pioneering artist."

Re: Joseph Franklin Carroll
Hi Jessica,
It appears to me that we may be talking of the same family due to the mother not wanting to be so nice. She believed that sex was only for procreating; therefore, a divorce was the only relief great-grandpa could find in order to be the man that he wanted to be ( married another by the name of Cellis stellars?). You are way ahead of the game as far as the family tree is considered.

Morgan Stanley Sees Growth Platforms Building for Stericycle
In a report published Thursday, Morgan Stanley analyst David R. Lewis reiterated an Equal-Weight rating on Stericycle (NASDAQ: SRCL).
In the report, Morgan Stanley noted, "Organic revenue growth in 4Q13 ticked up slightly versus 3Q13 but remains consistent with 2012-13 trends. Greater traction from StrongPak is a modest positive but drove margin dilution. Full valuation and limited visibility on sustainable growth acceleration keeps us from a more constructive view."
Stericycle closed on Wednesday at $116.48.

6/2015 Life insurance in the digital age
The life insurance industry is at a crossroads: new technologies pave the way for a revolution in the way insurers write business, handle data and engage consumers. Swiss Re's latest sigma study Life insurance in the digital age: fundamental transformation ahead looks at how life insurers have adopted some of the capabilities now available and how the future may take shape. It explores issues such as the use of Big Data, cognitive computing and how digital data can help insurers broaden their reach. The report also explores looming challenges for life insurers such as creating a positive digital experience for consumers, keeping up with regulatory changes, especially around data privacy, and dealing with potential partnerships or competition from non-traditional players.

5 brutal attacks linked to Nigerian terror group Boko Haram

Until reports last week that Boko Haram had kidnapped high school girls in Nigeria, the radical Islamic group that shuns western education, has managed to stay under the international radar. But their acts have been well known for some time in Africa, where their reign of terror has made them one of the most feared criminal groups on the continent. Here's a list of the group's top five worst atrocities:
April 2014: The group storms a school in the town of Chibok and kidnaps some 276 girls aged 16 to 18 then reportedly forces many of them into marriage with group members. In May, leader Abubakar Shekau releases a video threatening to sell the girls as slaves. Shortly afterwards, eight more girls, aged 12 to 15, are kidnapped.
February 2014: Militants attack the village of Izghe, rounding up a group of men and shooting them before going door-to-door and killing anyone they found. It is reported 106 villagers were murdered. Some were shot; others had their throats slit. Many bodies lay in the streets afterward.
July 2013: Assailants attack a boarding school and kill at least 42 people, mostly students, using guns and explosives. It was reported that some of the dead had parts of their bodies blown off or had been burned alive. Parents had trouble identifying their children, as many bodies were damaged beyond recognition.
May 2011: Hours after Goodluck Jonathan is sworn in as Nigeria's president, bombings occur in at least three locations, killing 15 people and wounding more than 30 others. Two more bombs went off the next day, but there were no casualties reported. Boko Haram took responsibility for the attacks.
July 2009: Volent clashes with security forces leave more than 1,000 dead across four northeastern states. Group members attack a police station in the region of Potiskum by strapping gasoline to motorcycles and riding them into the building, then shooting poison arrows at officers. The station was burnt to the ground.

Should the Nigerian government do more to rescue the kidnapped girls?

Well it's been over a year since my last post but that most certainly hasn't been from a lack of activity! The only real changed to this site in the last 9 months has been to my title and CV. These could give clues as to what I've been up to, but it should be worth a wee post with a general update.
Since my experiences of Dare to be Digital in 2010 where I was somewhat thrust into a programming position with very limited previous experience, I've had a niggle that programming is what I wanted to do. Regardless, I stuck at my audio work, continued my Sound Design course and graduated with aims of building enough freelance experience to eventually get an in-house post with a game developer somewhere, hoping my self-taught programming skills could be seen as an added bonus. Unfortunately my aims never seemed to be fulfilled and while people would give encouragement with "follow your dreams" and "don't give up", I understood the emptiness of such words when it became hard to pull together enough money to get by. At the end of the summer of 2012, with no full-time job in sight, I decided I wanted to change programming from being an "added bonus" to a qualified skill.
So since September last year I've been taking an MSc in Software Development from the University of Glasgow. The course has been structured to be highly intensive and squeeze as much of the most important content from a Software Engineering undergrad as possible into a one year Master programme. This task has been well achieved with the Software Development degree, but it's been extremely fast paced and has taken up to 65 hours of some weeks since September. They even have to squeeze 130 credits (11 1 20 credit and 10 credit courses) into 2 semesters when most Masters courses only require 120, simply so they can fit all the content in. Needless to say, it's been a lot of work and may be a part reason for my lack of posts.
So after 9 months of hard-graft that brings me up to today. I can safely say my niggle has grown into an absolute certainty. This is what I should have been doing all along! I found more and more as the course went along that things just seemed to make sense almost instantly. Programming has gone from being an added bonus, to a taught skill to an absolute obsession! I found myself trying to fulfil assignments in obscure and creative ways just as an extra challenge! And to add the icing to the cake, my results came back last week to reveal I'd received A grades for every course I sat bar 1 (B1 for Systems & Networks… alas!) and a GPA of over 19 (86%). This has given me the final confirmation that this is what I should have been doing all along. I've not received results like this in my entire life and, more to the point, never have I enjoyed "work" so much!
Part of me wishes my school hadn't had such an embarrassment of a computing department so I could have realised this sooner in my life, but I honestly think the creative outlook towards designing and building that I've achieved through my love for games and audio has been an important part of my overall learning curve. How can people really know exactly what it is they should be doing at the age of 17 anyway? Besides, I still love audio and I still love games. Perhaps developers will see this knowledge as an "added bonus"! 😉
Next on the agenda is applying for one of many potential jobs I've already scoped out while firing into my final MSc development project where I'm developing a Glasgow University Campus Maps application for the iPhone. It's already underway, so watch this space…

San Antonio Spurs Let Bruce Down

Good gosh how wrong can I be. I am embarrassed. I not only had the Spurs winning it all I pegged them as an all time great team. Man was I wrong...
Paul Pierce hit a cold-blooded 3 in LeBron's face to give the Boston Celtics a 94-90 win over the Miami Heat in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals. I'm not sure if Miami was cheered or heckled following the loss.
Heading into the Western Conference Finals the San Antonio Spurs seemed untouchable. After two losses in Oklahoma City over the weekend, they look human after all.
Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo took a shot at the Miami Heat during his halftime interview with Doris Burke on Sunday night.
Both Eastern and Western Conference finals got a bit more interesting over the weekend. Both the Boston Celtics and Oklahoma City Thunder even things with their heavily favored opponents.
Oh the NBA world waits on baited breath for the Nets to take their sad act to Brooklyn. Yikes isn't the crime rate high enough-imagine a lousy basketball team to make the residents feel even better...
Game two of the Eastern Conference Finals was a close one between the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat. The Heat ended up winning it on overtime 115-111, but this foul went unnoticed by the officials.
These NBA playoffs, including an epic game two between the Celtics and Heat have been great, however academic. The NBA champs will be the San Antonio Spurs...
Head coach Gregg Popovich told the San Antonio Spurs that he wanted "some nasty" in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals. The Spurs obliged.
Shaquille O'Neal raised eyebrows last week when he flirted with the idea of interviewing for the Orlando Magic's vacant general manager position — a job that, in the end, he decided not to pursue.
The Miami Heat and Boston Celtics will face each other in the Eastern Conference Finals. Game 1 of the best-of-seven series is Monday night in Miami. The winner advances to the 2012 NBA Finals against the victor of the San Antonio-Oklahoma City series. Here's a preview of the Eastern Conference Finals:
Heading into this shortened NBA season, many believed that the Boston Celtics didn't have enough left. They hade nough to eliminate the young Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday, 85-75, and now advance to the Eastern Conference finals to face the Miami Heat.

Thread: Yoshi Pan!
Results 1 to 10 of 16
Originally we almost got stuck with 6 and ended up with the "free" offer paying slightly more than if we had bought them in the store. We gave one to my son, but he never thanked us. I have a feeling that he didn't like it. My sister on the other hand was thrilled and watched the video online for more ideas for slicing and dicing.

THE WORLD HAS BEEN INVADED BY ALIENS! It's up to a nerdy, lazy high school kid to save it!
3.82 / 5.00 6,791 ViewsGabriel (gabs.tv) and Kenney (Kenney.nl) brings to you the sequel of the best nonogram puzzle game here on Newgrounds!
Keys: hold "X" or "SHIFT" to mark spaces with an X (to guide you).
If you didn't check Armor Picross 1 (it was released on early 2006), you may need to go to the INSTRUCTIONS to know how to play this game.
This was a project of over 3 months of development, it took a long time to make it, but it was totally worth it!
I hope you enjoy the game and support us by buying Armor Picross Pro!
P.S.: You may be asked to enlarge the SharedObjects space, please press "YES", it's because every puzzle can be saved so you can continue them later!
To save a puzzle (to finish it later) press QUIT >> SAVE AND QUIT
By far, best picross game yet.
Excellent gameplay. Started playing this back in June (so 9 months ago) and have played it regularly since. Finally beat all 100 levels, and I can easily say that I have spent more hours of my life playing this game than any other on Newgrounds. Thank you Kenney/Gabriel for wasting so much of my life!
I can't wait for a third one!
Love it!
I found this game about 2 years ago and iv been coming back to play it whenever i have free time or when im waiting for the night to end, the music is really soothing but can get repetitive after passing it a couple times, i thought the online feature was great idea but never got to use it since its been down before i ever passed the entire game, id like to see the online feature up so i can play some new puzzles!
i like it but
as it moves on to the harder levels they just get confusing
Yes :D
Well, so far, it's the best picross you can find on the internet.
It's very reactive, like when you finish a line, the numbers cross themselves...
Very realistic gameplay.
The only thing I would say is that I don't like the fact that there is a timer,
but it doesn't bother too much.
Favorited, without any hesitation.

Brand new and nothing out there like it The all new Teaser-T is an in-line Teaser, which freely spins 360 degrees and takes drop-shotting to the next level.
The dual swivels prevent line twists and tangles, and allow for a natural, horizontal presentation which entices more strikes.
The Teaser-T is both freshwater and salt water ready. You can fish the Teaser-T as is, or with added bait either way; its the perfect tease.
With black nickel coated swivels and black beads, they compliment the colorful Teaser-T very nicely, and make for a great presentation.
Available in 2 sizes, the Teaser-T also comes in 5 different fish-attracting colors.

Blessings Darlings!
Herb books are GREAT for medicinal properties assigned to herbs. They may give some other associations they have - planets, Gods, chakras, sepherot (and sometimes the books occassionally agree on what those associations are!).
But .... if you want to bond with the Spirit of the Herb/Spice/Resin .... that's a different thing. That takes some extra effort.
Yes, start with the book/internet knowledge. Especially find out if it's safe to take internally, because that's one technique we're going to discuss! Study. Memorize. Learn everything you can about the plant. Grow it if you can, or find it growing wild. If it's safe to take internally, eat or drink some of the plant. See what physical effects the plant has on your body. NOTE - IF THIS IS A KNOWN PSYCHOACTIVE PLANT, DO NOT NOT NOT DO THIS, ESPECIALLY AT THIS STAGE. DO THIS, FOR EXAMPLE, WITH OREGANO OR HOT PEPPERS, NOT WITH DATURA.
Oh, and you might ingest the plant in an orderly fashion, if possible. Leaves, seeds, bark, root all might have very different properties. Again - book knowledge first. The only part of, say, Poke weed that won't be toxic will be young shoots.
Make an offering to the spirit of the plant. Yes, it's best if you can leave it at the plant, and bonus points for finding it growing wild, but if it doesn't grow in your area that's okay. Explain your intention to the Spirit of the Plant, and that you're giving the offering as a token of your respect.
From here, move on to building up a good visualization of the plant. This would take me a week, but you might well be better at visualization than I am! I start with pictures on Google, then work on making them 'come alive'. You could make a sigil of the plant name, if you are inclined that way. I'm not a sigil person .... yet. Maybe I'll get there this life.
Finally, head into trance, hold that visualization or sigil, introduce yourself to the plant, and get to know it. What offerings does it like? What wisdom can it share with you? What plants/animals/spirits does it play nice with .... and which does it NOT play nice with?
Record this UPG (unverified Personal Gnossis) you get from the plant in your BOSL. Remember to give the plant an occassional offering, and an occassional visit - after working with it more you're likely to have more, not less, questions for it!

Lazy Saturday
blazer- H&M
silk blouse- Brooklyn Industries
jeans- Lucky Brand
boots- Gomax
necklace- Urban Outfitters
I've been wearing a lot of cardigans and knits this week...looking super casual. Still in the mood for jeans today, I added some boots, a silk top, and a fun blazer to make my look a bit more dressy. My husband and I were going on a little lunch date, so I didn't think a boring jeans/sweater/flats look would cut it...
I love how flowy this top is. The pleats in it and the empire waist are so romantic looking to me. Don't you think???

Dustin Keller or Tony Gonzalez? heck, plenty other questions
i have them both AND todd heap actually lol
Keller plays Bills this week while Gonzalez plays SF i think... who should i start? while im at it, anyone with 2 cents, please share... sanchez or henne? cedric benson or portis? janikowski as the kicker or nate kaeding? saints D or eagles D? and how come MJD is AWFUL as my #1 pick (3rd pick overall)
getting out of the hobby by the end of the 2013-14 basketball season... slowly ebaying the PC |
10-01-2010, 10:07 AM | #2 (permalink) |
I'd be starting Keller if it were me. But nothing wrong with Gonzalez either (excpect the 49ers D is much much better than the Bills so the matchup goes to Keller - who did great last week).
I'd go Henne (Jets still inconsistent - wouldnt want to risk to Jets right now). Portis may not be a bad play this week. Skins might pull off the win, but you know Benson will get carries. Even on kicker? Saints could be playing Better, but think I'd go that route over the eagles right now (think the Lions scored to many points last weekend). As for MJD...Its early...just gotta shug it off for now. A few years back I took Brady..he took what 2 snaps all year.

In the last 90 days, 0 listings have come on the market, which means new availabilities most likley are going fast. You'll want to be prepared to tour spaces as quick as possible. About NaN% of the office spaces in the Levelland are subleases, so you will probably need to sign a longer term lease with the landlord directly. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet on the market, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
The standard measurement for office space in this area is around sqft. Most buildings in this market were built in 1947.

New York City's bustling Times Square theater district is home to a variety of accommodations, including large and boutique hotels, motels, bed and breakfasts, and hostels. Although many of these establishments are located on peripheral side streets, travelers who wish to lodge in the heart of this vibrant neighborhood need to look no further that the towering hotels that line The Great White Way.
Crowne Plaza Times Square
The Crowne Plaza Times Square boasts 770 renovated guestrooms, each overlooking Times Square. In 2010, the hotel claimed to be the only in Times Square to be completely renovated. Guests of the establishment enjoy a full-service Broadway theater desk concierge who recommends and reserve tickets to shows. Access to the New York Sports Club and on-site fitness center is also granted. In addition, a restaurant, lounge and shops make their homes in the facility.
Double Tree Guest Suites
The Double Tree Guest Suites is located in the heart of New York City above the legendary Palace Theater. This nonsmoking establishment claims to be the only all-suite hotel in Times Square. In addition to a full-service business center, the hotel boasts a 1920s-inspired restaurant, cocktail lounge and coffee bar. On-site catering is available for meetings and other events, and in-room dining is offered for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
New York Marriott Marquis
The New York Marriott Marquis is a monstrous facility overlooking the center of Times Square. Comprised of guestrooms and suites, the establishment is home to a 24-hour business center, a 4,000-square-foot fitness center and the Marquis Theater, a Broadway playhouse. A veritable shopping mall stands at its base, with gifts shops, three restaurants, a sushi bar and a Starbuck's coffee shop. In addition, The View Restaurant and Lounge, located on the penthouse level, is the only revolving dining establishment in New York City.
Renaissance New York
Also a member of the Marriott family of hotels, the Renaissance New York Times Square Hotel stands directly across the street from the Crowne Plaza Times Square. This 26-story luxury establishment boasts modernly designed, soundproof guest rooms aimed at minimizing the noise of New York City's bustling theater district. The pet-friendly hotel maintains a business center and two lounges. R Lounge serves appetizers and cocktails during the afternoon and evening, while VIVID Lounge serves breakfast a la carte and buffet style.

Shavlik Protect is very well known for its industry-leading patch management capabilities. What is not so well known, however, is that it is capable of patching much more than just the Microsoft operating systems and applications on your laptops, workstations and servers. Many believe that these are the only items that matter, when in fact, they are sometimes only the tip of the proverbial patching iceberg. In this article, I will highlight four things that often get overlooked during the patch process and how Shavlik Protect can help.
Virtual Machines
Virtual machines have become extremely popular in both large and small organizations. But with their widespread use comes a certain danger. When it comes to patch management, your virtual machines are no different than your physical machines. Both must be consistently scanned and patched in order to stay protected. Fortunately, Shavlik Protect supports patching for all forms of virtual machines, including online VMs, offline VMs, and virtual machine templates. When you are patching your machines, don't forget about your virtual machines!
ESXi Hypervisors
If you use many virtual machines in your organization, you likely use VMware ESXi hypervisors to deploy and serve them. You might also use a VMware vCenter Server to manage the hypervisors. It's cool stuff, but did you know that the hypervisors require patching? If you are not regularly patching your hypervisors, you're exposing yourself to potential attacks. You will be happy to learn that Shavlik Protect can help you manage the hypervisors and vCenter Servers in your organization. Shavlik Protect enables you to:
- View basic configuration information about the vCenter servers and the ESXi hypervisors
- Perform a scan of your managed and unmanaged ESXi hypervisors
- Deploy any missing security bulletins to the ESXi hypervisors
Third-Party Applications
This seems like an easy one but somehow it keeps getting missed. Jordan Pusey touched on this in a blog article a few weeks ago. Many people are great at patching their Microsoft operating systems and Microsoft applications, but totally ignore their third-party applications. It is a fact that 70 – 80 percent of vulnerabilities are attributed to non-Microsoft applications, so make sure to include them in your patch management process.
Custom Patches
You may not realize it, but there is often a need to manage patches for products that are unique to your organization. For example, you might receive a special private patch from a software vendor. Or, you might create your own patch for a vendor's product or for your own custom product. When these situations arise, it is good to know that Shavlik Protect is capable of handling these special cases. The built-in Custom Patch File Wizard walks you through the process of creating your own customized XML files. You then simply import the custom XML files into Shavlik Protect and perform your scans and deployments like normal. Easy!
In Summary
Don't be guilty of locking all the doors but leaving the windows open. To stop the bad guys you need to patch every device and every product in your organization.

text: Ian Douglas Terry is a stand up comedian from Omaha, Nebraska who currently lives in Denver, Colorado. He runs a comedy festival called Crom that is happening in Omaha, Denver, Atlanta, and Toronto next year (the final year). He has performed at the High Plains Comedy Festival in Denver, The Fest in Gainesville, The Comedy Expo in Chicago, and numerous other festivals across the country. He has toured with Sean Patton and Dave Ross and opened for tons of amazing comedians and indie rock legends Cursive. In addition to comedy, IDT is also a professional wrestling manager, which is slightly cooler than being a stand up comedian. Hell yeah.
