Art

I have not seen everything on my list, but Hilma af Klint:  Paintings for the Future, at the Guggenheim, must surely be one of the greatest shows of the fall.  The didactics and the catalog seek to cast af Klint as an abstract painter avant la lettre, and thus, perhaps, the very first abstract painter (and a woman!), who was painting squares and amoebas and squiggly lines before any of the more well known males, such as Kandinsky or Malevich, were painting them.  But af Klint was not concerned, as they were, with eschewing the representational, or breaking with tradition, or art for its own sake.  Even when af Klint’s painting most resembles the hard edged abstraction of the mid twentieth century, you get the feeling that something, some reality or idea, is being depicted, or at least symbolized.  The point of being the first at something in art history is mainly one of influence.  The male artists whose abstract paintings hang nearby certainly had influence, but af Klint exhibited her work only once during her lifetime, and when she died, she directed that her paintings not be shown until 20 years after her death.  It is true that she was doing something nobody else was doing at the time, but her work gains or loses nothing by coming before Kandinsky.  It is so beside the point, in fact, that I suspected the Guggenheim was trying to distract the public from its (and the rest of the world’s) macho myopia.  Hilma af Klint has been dead for 64 years.  Her work was first exhibited 44 years after her death, in 1986, and as the Guggenheim website says, “only over the subsequent three decades have her paintings and works on paper begun to receive serious attention.”  Oops.The only timeline that matters is hers.  Like many other women in the 1880s and 1890s, she was a medium, and at first she painted what the spirits she channeled told her to paint.  Later, she painted by instinct.  Her mission, apparently, was to show how the processes of matter and time might be made visible in images.  She used symbolism as a basic structure, over which she lay a diagram of cosmic occurrences.  The pictorial depth is usually flat or limitless, but sometimes there are three dimensions, Necker cubes snapping in and out, and sometimes she is able to suggest the fourth dimension by controlling the way the eye moves around the painting.  Time is also suggested in the serial nature of her work.  Most paintings are part of series that show stages in a process, and this is especially true in the smaller drawings, which vary more minutely from drawing to drawing, as if they were cells in an animation.  (Film as a medium was just beginning to develop.)  Her paint application is primarily expedient, void of any aesthetic flourish that might be a distraction, and there is no identifiable style with which to date them—they could have been painted yesterday.  Her belief in science as proof of a supernatural world beyond the perceptible was a relatively common one during her time, but she seems to have come to her own conclusions about what that world might mean, or look like, or be.  She found a way to show it succinctly, and because of this, her visions are immediately accessible, her consciousness ours.

Dead Souls (2018), directed by Wang Bing, at Film Society

Why do the arthouses schedule their series in extremely short time frames?  Is anyone really available to watch three films in one day?  (See Metrograph’s Wang Bing series, with five films screening in one weekend.)  Or six films in four days?  (See Film Society’s Six by Kore-eda.)  And why schedule them on the same days another venue is screening films by the same director?  (See, again, Metrograph’s Wang Bing, which happens while more of his films screen uptown at Film Society.)  For anyone who is not a lady who picnics at theaters, this is an impossible scenario.  6…6?……6?!  In four days?!  It’s Satanic!  Breaks God’s heart.

• 15 Hours (2017), dir. Wang Bing, screens in its entirety (15 hours) on November 17 and 18; “This documentary installation consists of a single, 15-hour take shot in a garment factory in China and captures the daily labor of its 300,000 migrant workers and the functioning of its 18,000 production units.

Twyla Tharp Dance at Joyce

_

On the Calendar This Month

• For Merce Cunningham’s Centennial, Anthology Film Archives will begin an ongoing series of films.  The first film in the series is Variations V (1966), one of Cunningham’s earliest filmed dances.  Gus Solomons, Jr., who performed in Variations V and appears in the film, will be in person for an introduction and Q&A, November 19
• Cesc Gelabert performs alongside Pedja Muzijevic on piano as he plays Morton Feldman’s meditative, nearly two hour work Triadic Memories, if you missed Marilyn Nonken’s wonderful performance at the Provincetown Playhouse in September, now is your chance!  Listen, even if you don’t like it, it’s a great nap.
• Balanchine:  The City Center Years, at New York City Center, with ballet companies from around the world performing well known and not so well known works
• I added James Whiteside in Arthur Pita’s The Tenant, because, although the idea of a dance play seems like the kind of thing I would run out of screaming, the video preview shows three great dancers performing well
• A video preview of the piece by Oui Danse at New York Live Arts (on the website)  reminded me of the wonderful group movement scene in Madeline’s Madeline, the kind of echoing that can be gimmicky and predictable (watch the dominoes fall), but which I would like to see utilized well, and this might be my chance, and at $25 you can’t go wrong
• The Coates / McElheny / Phuon I know nothing about, but Coates and McElheny studied with Yvonne Rainer and at Baryshnikov’s White Oak Dance Project
• Jesper Just at BAM looks very silly, but it includes a film of Kim Gordon making music by banging on a border wall with a pole, and en pointe dancing in an immersive setting.  After being literally a foot away from the delicately posing ballerinas at Jen DeNike’s art performance Escape Velocity at Signs & Symbols in September, I want to relive the experience.  Unfortunately it is sold out, but I have had luck being aggressive with door people.  Let me slip you a Jackson?
• The Barnard / Columbia dances are on the calendar because, well, anything with a whiff of Cunningham makes me want to be in a Cage-y sandwich
• Finally, TWYLA.  Ms. Tharp to you.  To Wit:  Your Living Angel

Coming up…

• Les Arts Florissants, conducted by William Christie, will stage two Rameau ballets, La naisssance d’Osiris and Daphnis et Églé, March 1 – 3, 2019. Tickets on sale December 11
• If you missed Twyla Tharp’s transcendent In the Upper Room at ABT last week, you will have another chance in the spring.  ABT will perform it again, along with two other Twyla Tharp masterpieces, The Brahms-Haydn Variations, set to Brahm’s wonderful Variations on a Theme by Haydn, and Deuce Coupe, set to music by The Beach Boys.  The program is called Tharp Trio, and will be performed five times between May 30 and June 3, 2019, at the Metropolitan Opera House
