Someday, Bruce Conner will be considered as a pioneer of the post-modern aesthetic trend, along with the likes of Lawrence Stern or Marcel Duchamp. Strange claim you may think since none of them really created during the post-modern era. This claim is made clear in this book, which covers the filmic work of Bruce Conner, the pioneer of found footage filmmaking, so well-known nowadays for having influenced a generation of main-road filmmakers and TV producers, something often referred to as the MTV generation. But beyond the social recuperation of art trends, Bruce Conner's revolutionary films seriously question the nature of representation and, to a larger extent, the narration of history and its usefulness in a media-saturated society. Analyzed through a post-modern lens, this book contains a mixture of film theory and literary criticism. It investigates the role of Irony in relation to our history of violence (a tone Conner excelled at depicting), and explores its limitations. What can irony really teach us in our commercially and technologically driven society? Is violence really the becoming and inevitable outcome of Man? Or is its repeated spectacle just another form of dogma: a historical chimera portending dubious philosophical notions, such as supporting the constant belief of historical and human progress? The book finally raises a larger question as to whether Conner's socio-political statements, through an oeuvre being widely imitated and falling into main artistic network, did not anticipate, participate and precipitate the fall of the post-modern aesthetic.

Este volumen explora en profundidad el tema de la destrucción en el arte contemporáneo internacional. Damage Control cuenta con el trabajo de más de 40 artistas internacionales que trabajan en una variedad de medios - pintura, escultura, fotografía, cine, instalación y rendimiento - que han utilizado la destrucción como una forma de responder a su momento histórico y como una estrategia por incitar al espectáculo y la catarsis, como una forma de rebelión y protesta, o como una parte esencial de la re-creación y la restauración. Con obras de artistas tan diversos como Jean Tinguely, Andy Warhol, Bruce Conner, Yoko Ono, Gordon Matta-Clark, Pipilotti Rist, Yoshitomo Nara, y Laurel Nakadate, el libro va más allá del arte para permitir una comprensión más amplia de la cultura y de la sociedad en el después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, bajo el temor inminente de aniquilación en la era atómica, y en la era del terrorismo y otros desastres, reales e imaginarios.

Hot Art, Cold War – Northern and Western European Writing on American Art 1945-1990 is one of two text anthologies that trace the reception of American art in Europe during the Cold War era through primary sources. With the exception of those originally published in English, the majority of these texts are translated into English for the first time from eight languages, and are introduced by scholarly essays. They offer a representative selection of the diverse responses to American art in Great Britain, Ireland, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, West Germany (FRG), Austria, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. There was no single European discourse, as attitudes to American art were determined by a wide range of ideological, political, social, cultural, and artistic positions that varied considerably across the European nations. This volume and its companion, Hot Art, Cold War – Southern and Eastern European Writing on American Art 1945-1990, offer the reader a unique opportunity to compare how European art writers introduced and explained contemporary American art to their many and varied audiences. Whilst many are fluent in one or two foreign languages, few are able to read all twenty-five languages represented in the two volumes. These ground-breaking publications significantly enrich the fields of American art studies and European art criticism. This book, together with its companion volume Hot Art, Cold War – Southern and Eastern European Writing on American Art 1945-1990,, is a joint initiative of the Terra Foundation for American Art and the editors of the journal Art in Translation at the University of Edinburgh. The journal, launched in 2009, publishes English-language translations of the most significant texts on art and visual cultures presently only available only in their source language. It is committed to widening the perspectives of art history, making it more pluralist in terms of its authors, viewpoints, and subject matter.

A fascinating look at artistic experiments with televisual forms. Following the integration of television into the fabric of American life in the 1950s, experimental artists of the 1960s began to appropriate this novel medium toward new aesthetic and political ends. As Erica Levin details in The Channeled Image, groundbreaking artists like Carolee Schneemann, Bruce Conner, Stan VanDerBeek, and Aldo Tambellini developed a new formal language that foregrounded television’s mediation of a social order defined by the interests of the state, capital, and cultural elites. The resulting works introduced immersive projection environments, live screening events, videographic distortion, and televised happenings, among other forms. For Levin, “the channeled image” names a constellation of practices that mimic, simulate, or disrupt the appearance of televised images. This formal experimentation influenced new modes of installation, which took shape as multi-channel displays and mobile or split-screen projections, or in some cases, experimental work produced for broadcast. Above all, this book asks how artistic experimentation with televisual forms was shaped by events that challenged television broadcasters’ claims to authority, events that set the stage for struggles over how access to the airwaves would be negotiated in the future.

While highlighting the prevailing role of television in Western societies, Art vs. TV maps and condenses a comprehensive history of the relationships of art and television. With a particular focus on the link between reality and representation, Francesco Spampinato analyzes video art works, installations, performances, interventions and television programs made by contemporary artists as forms of resistance to and appropriation and parody of mainstream television. The artists discussed belong to different generations: those that emerged in the 1960s in association with art movements such as Pop Art, Fluxus and Happening; and those appearing on the scene in the 1980s, whose work aimed at deconstructing media representation in line with postmodernist theories; to those arriving in the 2000s, an era in which, through reality shows and the Internet, anybody could potentially become a media personality; and finally those active in the 2010s, whose work reflects on how old media like television has definitively vaporized through the electronic highways of cyberspace. These works and phenomena elicit a tension between art and television, exposing an incongruence; an impossibility not only to converge but at the very least to open up a dialogical exchange.
