New paper 📒 *Arts and ecological emergency: a paradoxical embrace of ambivalence amid the urgency*   Despite the undeniable planetary emergency, the lumping together of environmental issues and artistic practices remains complex and controversial, demanding careful examination. Among other contributions, our research argues for the involvement of the arts in the ecological emergency in a less binary manner, avoiding the for/against simplistic approach. It also highlights that bringing the arts into the sustainability conversation does not always equal instrumentalising it as a mere ‘communication’ platform – artistic and institutional imagination go far beyond it. It also seeks to connect the fact that arts practitioners’ hold highly individual views on ecological responsibility with the idea that the fixation on individual guilt overshadows the real impact that capitalist extractivism has on environmental problems. https://lnkd.in/dQtEWUaY This is an Original Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Annals of Leisure Research on 30th May, available at https://lnkd.in/dqSbyFkN

FADA Gallery invites you to the exhibition titled,  IN/VISIBLE The 2024 Creative Output exhibition “In/Visible” offers a useful register with which to engage an array of current works by staff of the Faculty of Art, Design & Architecture (FADA). It’s generally taken for granted that the production, appreciation and dissemination of art – via channels such as books, galleries, museums and the internet – is primarily predicated on notions of the visible, the visual and the tangible. There’s nothing wrong with this assumption. Indeed, without multiplicities of visuality, the world of art would stand to lose a great deal. As important as the visible may be, the invisible is a critical and easily overlooked layer for the thinking and making of art and its attendant provocations.  

Offering my customers the best service also involves looking at a lot of art in order to give them individualised advice. It also involves thinking outside the box and exchanging ideas with others. For example, I recently attended Art for Tomorrow in Venice. An excellent event that I would recommend to anyone interested in art plus. "Impferfect Beauty" was this year's theme and attracted first-class speakers such as Philippe Stark, Sean Scully, Mariet Westermann, Sandra Jackson-Dumont, Achilles Tsaltas and many more. Most of the events took place in the Palazzo Diedo in Venice, which has just been renovated and is owned by the Berggruen Institute. The "floating city" was an appropriate setting to consider the complex problems that beauty can bring: How can cities and cultural sites celebrate their heritage without becoming victims of their own success through overtourism? How can museums and monuments protect themselves from the inevitable impact of the climate crisis? How should institutions and artists think about and reflect the concerns of their changing populations? Underpinning it all was the central question of how the arts can unite and heal. The sessions were excellently led by The New York Times moderators. The The Democracy & Culture Foundation organizes the Art for Tomorrow Talks, as well as the Democracy Forum in Athens and other events. A big thank you to Achilles Tsaltas, President of The Democracy & Culture Foundation and his excellent team for this top-class event Have you already discussed the above mentioned topics in the context of art and artists? What role does art play in your company and private life? If you want to know more about these advantages of art, please contact me. I look forward to our discussion! #art #internationalartbridge #petrabeckerart #artconsulting #artfortomorrow #venice #thedemocracyandculture #artandinnovation

A pivotal moment for cultural institutions—especially encyclopaedic giants like the British Museum—as they navigate the complexities of the 21st century. This transition calls for a critical reexamination of their positioning, modernisation of infrastructure, evolution of operational models, and reimagined strategies for engaging diverse, contemporary audiences. At the Art Institutions of the 21st Century (AI21C) Foundation, we actively investigate how these institutions should / could respond to these challenges which in turn will shape the cultural landscape for generations to come.

What kind of record did we leave today? A photo taken looking at a clear sky, One like button pressed on a friend's photo posted on a social media account, A one-sentence reply to a message from a mother who was worried about her meals Today, in the digital age, we are creating countless records. Among the many records created using modern cultural relics, what does the Memory of the World made in the past mean to us today? The media art <Codex Cornucopia>, created by media artist Sammy Lee using various images and illustrations of the Memory of the World, asks you questions about the meaning of the Memory of the World through the artwork. The Memory of the World is embodied on a screen over 13 meters long in digital space. The exhibition <Into the Light : Memory of the World>, held in the exhibition hall on the second floor of the ICDH, will last until June 28.

🖼️ The Transformation of the Museum der Moderne Salzburg Between 2018 and 2022, the Museum der Moderne Salzburg embarked on a journey of transformation, reshaping not only its physical space but also its cultural footprint under the visionary leadership of Thorsten Sadowsky. 🌟 Visionary Leadership As Director from September 2018 to September 2022, Thorsten Sadowsky was instrumental in developing a new vision and mission for the Museum. His leadership saw the adoption of a set of values that galvanized the entire Museum team, driving extensive renovations and repositioning the Museum as a vibrant hub of art, photography, and visual arts. 🛠️ Extensive Renovations and International Standards The renovation measures undertaken were comprehensive, upgrading various Museum buildings to align with international standards for barrier-free access. This commitment to inclusivity has not only enhanced the aesthetic appeal of the Museum but also made it more accessible to a broader audience. 🗣️ A Forum for Critical Discussion Under Sadowsky's guidance, the Museum repositioned itself as an international center of competence for image cultures. It embraced its role as a forum for discussion, taking a critical stance towards both historical and contemporary issues. This approach has invigorated the Museum's agenda, making it a beacon for contemporary art and socially relevant debates. 🌍 Addressing Postcolonialism and Global Perspectives The Museum's agenda included a critical reappraisal of postcolonialism and a remapping of the world through the lens of art. This bold move has positioned the Museum as a pioneer in addressing complex global issues, making it a leader in the art world. 🔍 Insights and Delights This transformation journey offers profound insights into how cultural institutions can evolve to stay relevant in today's dynamic world. The delight lies in witnessing how art can be a powerful tool for social commentary and change, bridging gaps between the past and present. #MuseumDerModerneSalzburg #CulturalTransformation #ArtLeadership #InclusiveArt #GlobalArtDiscussion #PostcolonialismInArt #MuseumRenovation

Meet my latest proyect: Mediterranean Bits Wind 🌬️ The terrible story of things that are meant to have a purpose. It seems impossible to exist without a purpose. Here's the idea: we start our creative journey without worrying about who we are; just enjoying the ride and doing things for fun gives us hints about ourselves. But, from the beginning, we're pressured to decide what we'll be forever, committing to something we're far from. Being too rigid makes us annoying.   Deciding what we want to be and making big choices should be flexible and light. That's why this mobile goes against the idea of being fixed and deciding who we are before even starting. It challenges the idea of ceramics being heavy and rebels against strict rules.   In the end, building ourselves means trusting that the balance between things we can't control (like the wind) and things we can control (like matter) will put us in the right place.   We weren't always what we are, and we won't always be what we were. By the way, if you want to go see this piece in person, you can do so at the González Martí National Museum of Ceramics and Sumptuary Arts (in Valencia, Spain) where it's exhibited until the 18th of February.
