Title: Relationships between the ‘dematerial’ as formulated by Lucy R. Lippard and the ‘immaterial’ with particular reference to the work of Jean-François Lyotard.
Supervisors: Dr. Noel Fitzpatrick, Dr. Brian Fay.
Overview: There is an established and broad discourse on ‘immateriality’ in art practice which emerged in the 1960s and which was epitomized by the seminal exhibition Les Immatériaux (co-curated by Jean-François Lyotard and Thierry Chaput at Centre Georges Pompidou, 1985). The term ’immaterial’ as a contemporary construct is currently used in relation to digital practices often interchangeably with the term ‘dematerial’. ’Dematerialization’ as a trend in practice was operative primarily in the late 60s and early 70s and illustrated by Lucy Lippard’s text ‘Six Years: The Dematerialization of the Art Object’ (1973). This research project will pay particular attention to artists excluded by Lippard on ‘esthetic’ grounds as a counterpoint to Lippard’s inclusive unifying aesthetic. It will demarcate and find resonances between the ’dematerialized’ and the ‘immaterial’ historically and in modes of contemporary practice.
The research project, which is both theoretical-historical and practical in nature has two primary points of departure for enquiry: (i) the historical-critical examination of the difference between the contemporary theme of ‘immateriality’ and the older established theme of ‘dematerialization’ in relation to Conceptual and contemporary Post-conceptual art practices and (ii) the production of Post-conceptual works through digital means.
2017:
‘Your face follows me’ – The Enquiry @ IMMA, July 2017.
The Enquiry, a GradCAM Seminar Group hosted by The Irish Museum of
Modern Art which is led by Jeanette Doyle, curated an event of digital
art works and performances influenced by ongoing research by the group
into Lyotard. This included a new series of digital text based
animations by Doyle.
‘Cf’ or ‘The Inaugural Autonomous Biennale’. A Project initiated and
curated by Doyle for GradCAM @ The Research Pavilion Venice, September
2017. This project involved over 100 artists from all across the
globe. Each project was an individual national pavilion where artists
and curators represented a nation of their own choice in a manner of
their own determination.
‘My front precedes me’ The Enquiry @ Venice, September 2017. A
development of ‘Your face follows me’ @ IMMA. This was a re-staging
and modification of the earlier work at IMMA by the group for the
Research Pavilion Venice.
‘I see birds birds flying over the White House’ a research poem in
five acts performed by GradCAM’s Aesthetics Group including Jeanette
Doyle. This was made and performed in response to New York based
artist Michael Bell Smith’s ‘Birds over the White House’ (2006). Bell
Smith’s work is an algorithm of nodes representing birds flying over a
digital schematic plan of the White House. Bell Smith’s ‘Birds over
the White House’ was especially re-purposed for the Aesthetics Group
and incorporated into The Aesthetics Groups performance at The
Research Pavilion.
2018:
‘The Inhuman Gaze’. A presentation by The Aesthetics Group at Centre
Culturel Irlandais, Paris, June 2018. This paper is a reflection on
