A House Full of<br />

Music<br />

Strategies in Music and Art<br />

hATJe CAnTz<br />

edited by ralf beil, Peter kraut. Text<br />

by ralf beil, stefan fricke, Peter kraut,<br />

Thomas schäfer, et al.<br />

Famously described by Schönberg as<br />

“not a composer, but an inventor—of<br />

genius,” John Cage (1912–1992) was<br />

one of the great strategists and pioneers<br />

of twentieth-century music and<br />

art. A House Full of Music celebrates<br />

Cage’s one-hundredth birthday by examining<br />

12 fundamental strategies<br />

through which art and music have informed<br />

each other: recording, collage,<br />

silence, destruction, calculation, coincidence,<br />

feeling, thought, belief, furnishing,<br />

repetition and playing. Starting<br />

with such key figures as erik Satie,<br />

marcel Duchamp, nam June paik and<br />

Joseph Beuys, this book conjoins essays<br />

by art and music theorists with<br />

works by artists, musicians and composers.<br />

this landmark publication on a<br />

century-long “music circus” features<br />

everyone from arnold Schönberg, Karlheinz<br />

Stockhausen, Iannis xenakis,<br />

Carsten nicolai and robert Filliou to<br />

Laurie anderson, anri Sala, einstürzende<br />

neubauten, Frank Zappa<br />

and many others.<br />

Cosey Complex<br />

wALTher könIG, köLn<br />

edited by Maria fusco, richard birkett.<br />

Introduction by Maria fusco.<br />

a pioneering figure in Industrial/experimental<br />

music and performance art,<br />

Cosey Fanni tutti has embodied many<br />

roles since her early days as one half of<br />

CoUm transmissions, alongside genesis<br />

p-orridge. CoUm’s first art exhibition,<br />

Prostitution, at the ICa London<br />

in 1976, outraged the public with its inclusion<br />

of bloodied tampons and photographs<br />

of Cosey modeling for porn<br />

magazines, and was closed after four<br />

days. Cosey and genesis went on to<br />

cofound throbbing gristle, the band<br />

that pioneered and named Industrial<br />

music as a genre; when they split in<br />

1981 she formed the electronica duo<br />

Chris & Cosey with tg keyboardist<br />

Chris Carter. In 2010, Cosey returned<br />

to the ICa for an all-day celebration of<br />

her work, arranged by editor and author<br />

maria Fusco. arising from that occasion,<br />

this volume is the first major<br />

publication on Cosey, and features<br />

contributions by martin Bax, gerard<br />

Byrne, Cosey Fanni tutti, Daniela Cascella,<br />

Diedrich Diederichsen, graham<br />

Florian Hecker:<br />

Chimerizations<br />

PrIMArY InforMATIon<br />

Introduction by Catherine wood.<br />

Text by reza negarestani.<br />

electronic composer and sound artist<br />

Florian Hecker (born 1975) has made<br />

inventive use of contrasting and<br />

conflicting auditory illusions or<br />

chimeras—perhaps most famously<br />

on his recent acclaimed mego album<br />

Acid in the Style of David Tudor, which<br />

brilliantly and bizarrely merged the<br />

two soundworlds of acid house and<br />

avant-garde electronics. auditory<br />

chimeras have been previously explored<br />

in electroacoustic music, in<br />

particular by alvin Lucier, but have<br />

never been as rigorously researched<br />

and exploited as by Hecker. this<br />

volume documents four sound pieces<br />

that dramatize auditory illusions,<br />

effectively composing within the<br />

relationship between our perception<br />

of pitch and the localization of sound,<br />

as we process the two in our auditory<br />

cortices. the pieces are partly transcribed<br />

using a form of notation<br />

called “typotranslation,” developed by<br />

Hecker at mIt.<br />

Women Art<br />

Revolution<br />

A Film by Lynn Hershman<br />

Leeson<br />

zeITGeIsT fILMs<br />

For more than 40 years, artist and filmmaker<br />

Lynn Hershman Leeson (Teknolust,<br />

Strange Culture) has collected a<br />

plethora of interviews with her contemporaries<br />

and shaped them into this<br />

intimate portrayal of their fight to dismantle<br />

barriers facing women both in<br />

the art world and society at large. an<br />

entertaining and revelatory secret history<br />

of feminist art, Women Art Revolution<br />

illuminates this movement<br />

through conversations, observations,<br />

archival footage and works of artists,<br />

historians, curators and critics. Starting<br />

from feminism’s roots in 1960s antiwar<br />

and civil rights protests, the film<br />

details developments in women’s art<br />

through the 1970s and explores the<br />

tenacity and courage of these pioneering<br />

artists. With a rousing score by<br />

Carrie Brownstein of Sleater Kinney,<br />

the film features miranda July, the<br />

guerrilla girls, Yvonne rainer, Judy<br />

Chicago, marina abramovic, Yoko<br />

ono, Cindy Sherman, Barbara Kruger,<br />

B. ruby rich, Ingrid Sischy, Carolee<br />

Schneemann, miriam Schapiro, marcia<br />

Louise Bourgeois:<br />

The Spider, the<br />

Mistress and the<br />

Tangerine<br />

A Film by Marion Cajori &<br />

Amei Wallach<br />

zeITGeIsT fILMs<br />

Louise Bourgeois: The Spider, the Mistress<br />

and the Tangerine is a mesmerizing<br />

cinematic journey inside the world<br />

of the modern art legend and feminist<br />

icon. as an artist, Louise Bourgeois always<br />

worked on her own vigorously inventive<br />

and disquieting terms. In 1982,<br />

at the age of 71, she became the first<br />

woman honored with a major retrospective<br />

at the museum of modern<br />

art. She went on to create her most<br />

powerful and persuasive work—the<br />

massive spider sculptures that have<br />

since been exhibited all over the world.<br />

as a screen presence, Bourgeois is<br />

magnetic, mercurial and emotionally<br />

raw. Filmed with unparalleled access<br />

between 1993 and 2007, this documentary<br />

delicately sheds light on the ways<br />

in which her childhood traumas and<br />

memories became embodied in objects<br />

and installations. an intimate and<br />

human engagement with an artist’s<br />

world, this documentary is a comprehensive<br />

and dramatic work of creativity<br />

and revelation.<br />

Bill Cunningham<br />

New York<br />

A Film by Richard Press<br />

zeITGeIsT fILMs<br />

“We all get dressed for Bill,” says<br />

Vogue editor-in-chief anna Wintour.<br />

the Bill in question is New York Times<br />

photographer Bill Cunningham. For<br />

decades, this Schwinn-riding cultural<br />

anthropologist has chronicled fashion<br />

trends he spots emerging from<br />

manhattan’s sidewalks and high<br />

society charity soirees, for his popular<br />

Style section columns “on the Street”<br />

and “evening Hours.” the range<br />

of people he snaps includes uptown<br />

fixtures like Wintour, Brooke astor,<br />

tom Wolfe and annette de la renta,<br />

as well as downtown eccentrics and<br />

everyone in between. rarely has<br />

anyone embodied contradictions as<br />

happily and harmoniously as Cunningham,<br />

who lived a monklike existence<br />

in the same Carnegie Hall studio for<br />

50 years, never eats in restaurants<br />

and gets around solely on his bike.<br />

Bill Cunningham New York is a<br />

delicate, funny and often poignant<br />

portrait of a dedicated artist whose<br />

only wealth is his own humanity and<br />

unassuming grace.”<br />

Arte Povera<br />

A Film by Sergio Ariotti &<br />

Beatrice Merz<br />

hoPefuLMonsTer edITore<br />

this DvD reintroduces the essential<br />

2000 vHS video documentary Arte<br />

Povera by Sergio ariotti and Beatrice<br />

merz, a complete, chronological<br />

overview of the radical—and defiantly<br />

unglamorous—Italian “poor art” movement<br />

that arose in the late 1960s to<br />

contest the separation of art and everyday<br />

life. It presents ample archival material<br />

from all the significant group<br />

exhibitions—from the three-day event<br />

“arte povera + azioni povere at<br />

amalfi” of 1968 to the venice Biennale<br />

of 1997—along with footage of recent<br />

solo exhibitions and interview clips<br />

with founding member and art historian<br />

germano Celant, and a range of<br />

other artists, critics and gallery directors.<br />

Arte Povera presents the movement<br />

in all its complexity, and includes<br />

such participants as giovanni<br />

anselmo, alighiero Boetti, pier paolo<br />

Calzolari, Luciano Fabro, Jannis<br />

Kounellis, mario merz, marisa merz,<br />

giulio paolini, giuseppe penone,<br />
