In this work, the artists explore what it means to move from a material world of entangled, interacting agents to a world of mathematical modelling and graphical abstraction. The Prophets cuts across a wide range of historical and contemporary topics of interest to economists such as labour, consumption, production, taxes, savings, investments, credit and so on, to constitute a diagrammatology of economic thought. The book includes texts by Peggy Gale (independent curator, author and editor), Sven L\u00fctticken (critic and art historian), Harro Maas (economist and professor), Marina Roy (artist and author) and Jakub Zdebik (professor and art historian).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><style>.kb-image10503_e264e9-b4 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}<\/style>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image10503_e264e9-b4 size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"693\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/Monograph-131-2-e1731448254802.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-10505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/Monograph-131-2-e1731448254802.jpg 693w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/Monograph-131-2-e1731448254802-260x300.jpg 260w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 693px) 100vw, 693px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p><em>The Power Given to Abstractions that Makes Us Stupid<\/em> (Agnes Etherington Art Centre &amp; al., 2020) is the first monographic publication devoted to Ibghy &amp; Lemmens&#8217; practice. Edited by Sunny Kerr, it presents multifaceted works that often develop over several years and covers the duo&#8217;s artistic production from 2008 to 2018. The book includes essays by Vincent Bonin (author and independent curator), Lorna Brown (artist, writer and curator), Sunny Kerr (curator of contemporary art at the Agnes Etherington Art Centre) and Melanie O&#8217;Brian (Associate Director\/Curator at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery). It also includes an interview by Kitty Scott (Curator and Strategic Director at Fogo Island Arts) and a text written by the artists.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dots\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Richard Ibghy and Marilou Lemmens<\/strong> create sculptures, videos, installations, public artworks, and artist books. Combining rigorous research with a material exploration that is specific to each project, their practice questions issues at the intersection of ecology, economy, epistemology, and history. For several years, they have examined the history of science and other forms of knowledge, including the language of economy, the magic of statistics, the capacity for models to impact the future, the aesthetics of data visualization, and the design of laboratory experiments. More recently, their work seeks to expand concepts of hospitality, care, and interspecies communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to their individual practices, <strong>Jean-Maxime Dufresne<\/strong> and <strong>Virginie Lagani\u00e8re<\/strong> have been collaborating as a duo for some twenty years. Anthropological in nature, their artistic research focuses on the transformations of our built, natural, and technological territories, with a particular sensitivity to the human psyche. At the confluence of documentary, fictional and speculative approaches, their work with image and sound aims to interrogate various realities to reveal minor narratives. Their approach is primarily guided by field research, conceptual thinking and investigative processes deployed during residencies, which include collaboration with stakeholders from multiple horizons. Through the telescoping of diverse phenomena, their artistic production translates into protean installations that create a fertile dialogue in the arrangement of research material. In order to explore their experiential and critical scope, a reflection on the staging of the photographic and videographic image runs through all their exhibitions, integrating sound art, sculptural elements and architectural devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Facebook event <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share\/1AsFVxVGzp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image10503_d706be-05.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .kb-image10503_d706be-05 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{max-width:236px;width:100%;}.wp-block-kadence-column > .kt-inside-inner-col > .kb-image10503_d706be-05.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .wp-block-kadence-column > .kt-inside-inner-col > .kb-image10503_d706be-05 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{align-self:unset;}.kb-image10503_d706be-05 figure{max-width:236px;}.kb-image10503_d706be-05 .image-is-svg, .kb-image10503_d706be-05 .image-is-svg img{width:100%;}.kb-image10503_d706be-05 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-image10503_d706be-05.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .kb-image10503_d706be-05 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{max-width:191px;width:100%;}}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-image10503_d706be-05 figure{max-width:191px;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-image10503_d706be-05.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .kb-image10503_d706be-05 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{max-width:119px;width:100%;}.kb-image10503_d706be-05 figure{max-width:119px;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image10503_d706be-05\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/MHM_noir-2-1024x355.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-10592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/MHM_noir-2-1024x355.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/MHM_noir-2-300x104.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/MHM_noir-2-768x266.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/MHM_noir-2.jpg 1045w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image10503_b83765-01.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .kb-image10503_b83765-01 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{max-width:221px;width:100%;}.wp-block-kadence-column > .kt-inside-inner-col > .kb-image10503_b83765-01.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .wp-block-kadence-column > .kt-inside-inner-col > .kb-image10503_b83765-01 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{align-self:unset;}.kb-image10503_b83765-01 figure{max-width:221px;}.kb-image10503_b83765-01 .image-is-svg, .kb-image10503_b83765-01 .image-is-svg img{width:100%;}.kb-image10503_b83765-01 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-image10503_b83765-01.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .kb-image10503_b83765-01 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{max-width:176px;width:100%;}}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-image10503_b83765-01 figure{max-width:176px;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-image10503_b83765-01.kb-image-is-ratio-size, .kb-image10503_b83765-01 .kb-image-is-ratio-size{max-width:121px;width:100%;}.kb-image10503_b83765-01 figure{max-width:121px;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image10503_b83765-01\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"294\" src=\"https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/YYZBOOKSlogo_red-1024x294.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-10596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/YYZBOOKSlogo_red-1024x294.png 1024w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/YYZBOOKSlogo_red-300x86.png 300w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/YYZBOOKSlogo_red-768x220.png 768w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/YYZBOOKSlogo_red-350x100.png 350w, https:\/\/fondationguidomolinari.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/11\/YYZBOOKSlogo_red.png 1523w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n<input class=\"fooboxshare_post_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"10503\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday, November 25th 2024 at 6pm.
