Andrew Toovey - Red Icon for orchestra (1 of 2)


Section 2 of orchestral piece Red Icon (1995), slow section, written to celebrate Michael Finnissy's 50th birthday, BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra conducted by Martyn Brabbins. David Drew was the producer. You can follow the full score while listening to this section of the piece. Layers of sound can be heard, from high string harmonics and repeated woodwind chord to percussion (including harpsichord and cimbalom) shifting chords around the note 'E' and changing brass chords. The emotional quality is like a slightly changing/shifting view in 'sound' of a Mark Rothko painting or a stripped painting by either Agnes Martin or Bridget Riley.

Anne Wagner: Women's Time: Martin and Truitt in the Moment of Minimalism


In this special presentation, Anne Wagner, Class of 1936 Chair in the Department of History of Art at UC Berkeley, considers the work of Agnes Martin and Anne Truitt in relation to Minimalism and the modern repackaging of time. Wagner writes: For us moderns, time has changed. It has become a quantity, an investment, which we save, borrow, waste, and spend. Often we run out of it, though occasionally we have a little to spare. Only then, like our machines, do we switch off. It was the forms of Minimalism that in the 1960s were most successful, and most influential, in reducing arts temporal demands to, well, a minimum, for both viewer and maker alike. Repetition and geometry were the movements primary means, as by now is well known. But what is much less obvious is how and why some users of these straightforward sixties devices aimed for—and achieved—such utterly different perceptual effects. Anne Truitt, for example, speaks of her sculptures ability to disarm time. And in Agnes Martins paintings, each line marks the duration of its making in and as its trace.

Robert Lehrman: Secrets of the Art World - Smithsonian American Art Museum


Collectors' Roundtable with Robert Lehrman This annual series provides insight and invaluable advice on collecting art from museum directors, curators, collectors, art dealers, and consultants. This evening, collector Robert Lehrman (Washington, DC) presents "Secrets of the Art World."

Minimalism: Crimson


Minimalism describes movements in various forms of art and design, especially visual art and music, where the work is stripped down to its most fundamental features. As a specific movement in the arts it is identified with developments in post-World War II Western Art, most strongly with American visual arts in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Prominent artists associated with this movement include Donald Judd, Agnes Martin, Robert Morris, and Frank Stella. It is rooted in the reductive aspects of Modernism, and is often interpreted as a reaction against Abstract Expressionism and a bridge to Postmodern art practices. This video is part of the "Palette" project and pays homage to Minimalism. Video by Mark Garvey, song "Crimson" by Bill Hooper. Please visit www.MarkGarvey.co.uk for more details.

Hide/Seek - Difference and Desire in American Portraiture


Curator David C. Ward discusses this first major museum exhibition to focus on sexual difference in the making of modern American portraiture. "Hide/Seek" considers such themes as the role of sexual difference in depicting modern America; how artists explored the fluidity of sexuality and gender; how major themes in modern art—especially abstraction—were influenced by social marginalization; and how art reflected society's evolving and changing attitudes toward sexuality, desire, and romantic attachment. The exhibition begins with late nineteenth-century works by Thomas Eakins and John Singer Sargent and charts the twentieth century with major works by such American masters such as Romaine Brooks, Marsden Hartley, and Georgia O'Keeffe. The exhibition arcs through the postwar period with major paintings by Agnes Martin, David Hockney, Jasper Johns, and Andy Warhol. It continues through the end of the twentieth century with works by Keith Haring, AA Bronson, and Felix Gonzalez-Torres about life, love and death during the AIDS crisis, and charts the vigorous reassertion of lesbian and gay civil rights in the twenty-first.

RE: Jericomovie, Pedophilia - why is it immoral


Sorry, the footage is really bad, not enough light... But I added creepy crawler music! The piece is called Redbird (for Agnes Martin) composed by John Zorn. I believe the licensing is free, the free download is here: rootstrata.com I try to chime with my opinion on the matter, I know that most of the objections I brought up already have been made by other people in the comments, but I wanted to contribute my view that is tangentially different from jericomovie's and why I conclude its immoral from a quasi-subjective stance.
