CACT: Fighting Ignorance & Intellectual Perfidy | Bellinzona/CH on Sep 15 | Project [SFIP] is a multi-national exhibition process and a platform for critical thinking, researching and presenting African video art. Curated by Kisito Assangni.

CACT Centro Arte Contemporanea Ticino via Tamaro 3 CH - 6500 Bellinzona
Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 December 2012 at 6.00 p.m. and at 7.30 p.m.
(2 screenings / day)

The technocultural revolution has democratised cultural and artistic practice through everyday access to new media. At the same time, the pervasive presence of technology in our lives has raised questions around privacy, surveillance and ownership, the dominance of Western media in globalisation, as well as the privilege of access in the developed world. The [SFIP] network is dedicated to the diffusion of new experiences worldwide through film and video. It is unfortunate that contemporary African art remains largely associated with sculpture and painting. Much work remains to be done in adequately researching the creative energy of the continent, especially within the last decade.

This exhibition presents a selection of African video art that stands beyond the clichés that remain associated with the dark continent and the postcolonial image. It seeks to bring viewers closer to idiosyncratic readings of African video art and its thematic concerns which are largely ignored. ‘Still Fighting Ignorance & Intellectual Perfidy’ contextualises African video art within a larger cultural framework.

Reflecting an age of inter-cultural migration, [SFIP] presents African video artists who live in Africa, Europe and USA whilst providing a meeting point for knowledge and interest in the relationship between self and society. Most works address issues of alterity, identity, tolerance and social relationships as artists reflexively consider their sense of place and belonging in an increasingly interconnected world.

From experimental video to short film, this show focuses on aesthetic and methodological perspectives of fighting ignorance and intellectual perfidy in contemporary African art. The project tells Africa's story by African new media artists as seen through the lens of the relation between tradition and modernity.

AMIKAM GOLDMAN: Boris Lurie Art Reference Room | Tel Aviv on Aug 14 :

Nameplate at the entrance door at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art Library

I went to talk with Ms. Yaffa Goldfinger, the head of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art Library. Ms. Yaffa Goldfinger asked me if I knew that Boris Lurie had a family. I told her he didn't and she said he did - and began talking about Gertrude Stein ... The story is this: About a year ago the Tel Aviv Museum of Art got a call from Gertrude Stein, telling she would like to donate money to the museum. The museum directed her to Ms. Yaffa Goldfinger in the Library, who at the time worked hard on the new location and the transfer of the place. Yaffa and the museum people told Gertrude Stein that they want to invest the donation in the "Israeli Art Reference Room" - that is the archive room of all Israeli artist since 1920's until today, all these blue and yellow folders include material about different Israeli artists, catalogs, newspapers, etc. - Gertrude agreed to this idea. The first part of the plan was the transfer and arranging of the new room - the second part which they are working on it now (and that's were they need most of the money), is to scan and digitize ALL this material.

Gertrude Stein is giving the money for all this project. Ms. Yaffa Goldfinger was in New York in Gertrude Stein's place on Central Park. She had the impression of a some strange about Gertrude Stein who told her about the  ►Boris Lurie Art Foundation, told her she was Boris's lover all these years, even when her husband was alive and that she was Boris closest friend, in other words, she was like a family to him [1] - many details she did not mentioned ...

I talked to Ms. Goldfinger about 20 minutes, telling her some details about the relationship they had, about the fight over the foundation, about Boris’s art and money, about your NO!art website, and the lack of trust I have in Gertrude. But the facts are facts, and the Tel Aviv Museum of Art is getting money from her. Ms. Goldfinger didn't know to say if the money comes from Gertrude Stein herself or from the foundation - but I’m sure we know the answer for that - one thing she mentioned was that the Library had few visits from Gertrude’s people, one of them was that lawyer Dr. Geo Campanovo. Another thing she mentioned, was one hard time she really got from Gertrude Stein was about the placard "Boris Lurie Art Reference Room", she had to replace it 3 times, until Gertrude was satisfied with it.  ►more

[1] Comment by Dietmar Kirves: If Gertrude was Boris's closest friend why she did nothing for him in the art scene betwenn 1966 and 2010? I remember, that she was very angry about our shows at Janos Gat Gallery and Clayton Patterson's Gallery.

DOMINIK STAHLBERG: About Lurie Show in Florence | Carrara/Italy on Jun 21 :

Dominik Stahlberg pointed at Boris Lurie's writing in the show

Now you can forget all your old ideas. What a  ►show, what a catering, what a nice team, such beautiful women! Boris Lurie, an elite exhibition. He would have not like it. Photographing and video recording is strictly prohibited! Lurie as an angel of peace, as a world savior. Lurie as a resistance against all evil in the world.

►Dr. Campanovo, a co-director of the Boris Lurie Art Foundation  ►(BLAF), orated with a "wonderful" text. A very serious man with a very more serious face. A banker, a shark. He donated 15,000 Euros in the name of BLAF to the Kennedy Center, without a smile ... cool type. Boris would have loved him ... The curator, praised as the same.

Too bad that no one of them has ever met Boris ... The catalog, a single bad NO NO NO NO! The only good man at the opening was Paolo Baratella, invited and flown in from northern Italy. He told of his meeting with Boris in the 60s in his studio. He wondered why he was invited, there should be people who would know much more better Boris. Yes, that surprised us too! That was the first show, according to curator of  ►works by Boris in Europe (WTF!)

We, the NO! artists have to organize us now! The BLAF is trying now to re-write the story of us and of Boris. The BLAF tries to destroy us! I drove back home with bad energy, so bad that the engine of my car broke down ... For this too .. thanks again BLAF!  ►Dominik Stahlberg - NO!artist

GERTRUDE STEIN: Boris Lurie | New York on Jan 8 | Boris died on the 8th of January, four years ago. It is a moment of sadness for all who knew and cared for him. We are carrying out his plans for the foundation, and have achieved a great deal in this short time. Now our work will be a Lurie Foundation building. The property he owned for many years, which he called STUDIO HOUSE will be a monument to the movement he believed in and struggled for his entire life.

On January 6, 2012, Rocco Armento passed away, his oldest friend and collaborator for more then 50 years.
