Art & queer culture / by Lord, Catherine,1949-compiler,writer of added commentary.author.; Meyer, Richard,1966-compiler,writer of added commentary.author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Survey : Inverted histories: 1885-1979 / Richard Meyer ; Inside the body politic: 1980-present / Catherine Lord -- Works : Thresholds (1885-1909) ; Stepping out (1910-29) ; Case studies (1930-49) ; Closet organizers (1950-64) ; Into the streets (1965-79) ; Sex wars (1980-94) ; Queer worlds (1995-2009) -- Here and Now (2010-present) -- Artists' Biographies -- Index.Updated and revised, Art & Queer Culture is a comprehensive and definitive survey of artworks that have constructed, contested, or otherwise responded to alternative forms of sexuality. Rather than focusing exclusively on artists who self-identify as gay or lesbian, Art & Queer Culture instead traces the shifting possibilities and constraints of sexual identity that have provided visual artists with a rich creative resource over the last 130 years - and it does so in an accessible, authoritative voice, and with a wealth of rarely-seen imagery.

The queer art of failure / by Halberstam, Jack,1961-author.(CARDINAL)388325;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 189-199) and index.Introduction: Low theory -- Animating revolt and revolting animation -- Dude, where's my phallus? forgetting, losing, looping -- The queer art of failure -- Shadow feminisms : queer negativity and radical passivity -- "The killer in me is the killer in you" : homosexuality and fascism -- Animating failure : ending, fleeing, surviving."The Queer Art of Failure is about finding alternatives--to conventional understandings of success in a heteronormative, capitalist society; to academic disciplines that confirm what is already known according to approved methods of knowing; and to cultural criticism that claims to break new ground but cleaves to conventional archives. Judith Halberstam proposes 'low theory' as a mode of thinking and writing that operates at many different levels at once. Low theory is derived from eccentric archives. It runs the risk of not being taken seriously. It entails a willingness to fail and to lose one's way, to pursue difficult questions about complicity, and to find counterintuitive forms of resistance. Tacking back and forth between high theory and low theory, high culture and low culture, Halberstam looks for the unexpected and subversive in popular culture, avant-garde performance, and queer art. She pays particular attention to animated children's films, revealing narratives filled with unexpected encounters between the childish, the transformative, and the queer. Failure sometimes offers more creative, cooperative, and surprising ways of being in the world, even as it forces us to face the dark side of life, love, and libido"--Publisher's description.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 215-226) and index."Queering Contemporary Asian American Art takes Asian American differences as its point of departure, and brings together artists and scholars to challenge normative assumptions, essentialisms, and methodologies within Asian American art and visual culture. Taken together, these nine original artist interviews, cutting-edge visual artworks, and seven critical essays explore contemporary currents and experiences within Asian American art, including the multiple axes of race and identity; queer bodies and forms; kinship and affect; and digital identities and performances. Using the verb and critical lens of 'queering' to capture transgressive cultural, social, and political engagement and practice, the contributors to this volume explore the connection points in Asian American experience and cultural production of surveillance states, decolonization and diaspora, transnational adoption, and transgender bodies and forms, as well as heteronormative respectability, the military, and war. The interdisciplinary and theoretically informed frameworks in the volume engage readers to understand global and historical processes through contemporary Asian American artistic production"--Publisher's website.

Otherwise : imagining queer feminist art histories / by Jones, Amelia,editor,writer of introduction,contributor.; Silver, Erin,editor,contributor.; Doyle, Jennifer,contributor.; Katz, Jonathan D.,1958-contributor.; Latimer, Tirza True,contributor.; Bryan-Wilson, Julia,contributor.; Lord, Catherine,1949-contributor.; Bowen, Dore,1961-contributor.; Gaulke, Cheri,contributor.; Steiner, A.

Includes bibliographical references and index."Otherwise: Imagining queer feminist art histories" is the first publication to address queer feminist politics, methods and theories in relation to the visual arts, including new media, installation and performance art. Despite the crucial contribution of considerations of 'queer' to feminism in other disciplines of the humanities, and the strong impact of feminist art history on queer visual theory, a visible and influential queer feminist art history has remained elusive. This book fills the gap by offering a range of essays by key North American and European scholars, both emerging and renowned, who address the historiographic and political questions arising from the relationship between art history and queer theory in order to help map exclusions and to offer models of a new queer feminist art historical or curatorial approach.

Queer networks : Ray Johnson's correspondence art / by Johnson, Ray,1927-1995,artist.(CARDINAL)169136; Kienle, Miriam,1979-author.(CARDINAL)876163; University of Minnesota.Press,publisher.(CARDINAL)855718;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 235-278) and index."Utilizing the postal service as his primary means of producing and circulating art, Ray Johnson cultivated an international community of friends and collaborators through which he advanced his idiosyncratic body of work. Highlighting his alternative modes of community building and playful antagonism toward art world protocols, Miriam Kienle demonstrates how Ray Johnson's correspondence art offers new ways of envisioning togetherness in today's highly commodified and deeply networked world"--"Ray Johnson (1927-1995) was a seminal Pop Art figure in the 1950s, an early conceptualist, and a pioneer of mail art. His preferred medium was collage, that quintessentially twentieth-century art form that reflects the increased (as the century wore on) collision of disparate visual and verbal information that bombards modern man. Integrating texts and images drawn from a multiplicity of sources -- from mass media to telephone conversations -- Johnson's innovativeness spread beyond the confines of the purely visual. He staged what Suzi Gablik described in Pop Art Redefined as perhaps the "first informal happening" and moved into mail art, artist books, graphic design, and sculpture, working in all modes simultaneously. Johnson not only operated in what Rauschenberg famously called "the gap between art and life," but he also erased the distinction between them. His entire being - a reflection of his obsessively creative mind - was actually one continuous "work of art." His works reflect his encyclopedic erudition, his promiscuous range of interests, and an uncanny proto-Google ability to discover connections between a myriad of images, facts, and people.Born in Detroit, Michigan on October 16, 1927, Johnson grew up in a working class neighborhood and attended an occupational high school where he enrolled in an advertising art program. He studied at the Detroit Art Institute and spent a summer in a drawing program at Ox-Bow School in Saugatuck, Michigan, an affiliate of the Art Institute of Chicago. Leaving Detroit in the summer of 1945, he matriculated at the progressive Black Mountain College, where he spent the next three years with the exception of the spring of 1946. He studied painting with former Bauhaus faculty Josef Albers and Lyonel Feininger, as well as Robert Motherwell. By the summer of 1948, Johnson had befriended summer visiting lecturers John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Willem de Kooning, Buckminster Fuller, and Richard Lippold and fellow student Ruth Asawa. He participated in "The Ruse of Medusa," the culmination of Cage's Satie Festival (characterized by scholar Martin Duberman as "a watershed event in the history of 'mixed-media'") with Cage, Cunningham, Fuller, the de Koonings, and Ruth Asawa, among others." -- Full biography at:Miriam Kienle is associate professor of art history in the School of Art and Visual Studies at the University of Kentucky.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 229-232) and index."Rather than a book of queer theory for artists, this is a book of artists' queer tactics and infectious concepts. In the first such anthology to be centred on artists' writings, numerous conversations about queer practice are brought together from diverse individual, social and cultural contexts. Together these texts describe and examine the ways in which artists have used the concept of queer as a site of political and institutional critique, as a framework to develop new families and histories, as a spur to action, and as a basis from which to declare inassimilable difference"--Back cover.
