A day in the life of the artist On Kawara (Spanish subtitles). Un día en la vida del artista On Kawara (subtitulado en español).

Guggenheim curator Jeffrey Weiss and curator Kasper König discuss On Kawara’s Today (1966–2013), an extended series of paintings of dates produced according to a strict set of rules.

Lawrence Weiner talks to Lisa Le Feuvre about his recent exhibition 'BE THAT AS IT MAY' at Lisson Gallery, 28 November 2012 -- 12 January 2013. Widely recognised for his pioneering role in the development of conceptualism in the 1960s, Weiner has spent the last five decades deconstructing artistic practices into various concepts of language and idea. Weiner is primarily a sculptor working with language. His artistic process sees him work with various sculptural materials, translating the experience into text. The resulting texts are often ambiguous and open to interpretation, leaving space for multiple iterations of the same piece. The manifestations of his work are similarly open-ended and Weiner considers the conveying of information as the core of the work, taking precedence over its physicality. The multitude of forms his works have taken over the years bears testament to this, with previous works sung, painted or engraved on walls, enacted, built, printed or stamped on coins and manhole covers. The public realm has played an important part throughout Weiner's career, with his slogans creeping plant-like across the facades of public buildings around the world, translated into numerous languages. Weiner's desire to put work out in the world for all to read and engage with dates back to his earliest experiences of art growing up in the South Bronx, New York. He says, "I did not have that advantage of a middle-class perspective. Art was something else; art was the notations on the wall, or art was the messages left by other people. I grew up in a city where I had read the walls; I still read the walls. I love to put work of mine out on the walls and let people read it. Some will remember it and then somebody else comes along and puts something else over it. It becomes archaeology rather than history." From the seminal Statements of 1968, his first book, to his many iconic urban and public installations, Weiner continues to be internationally recognised as one of the foremost artistic practitioners working in America today.

American conceptual artist Lawrence Weiner is known for his language-based sculpture and work exploring the relationship between art, artist, and viewer. In this new short film from the Time‑Space-Existence series, he discusses the relationship between people and material objects, language as a gesture, and making art accessible to the public. Curated and produced by PLANE—SITE, this video series features interviews with prominent architects and artists reflecting on the topics of TIME SPACE EXISTENCE. These three concepts sketch out the contours of the world around us — a fact especially true within architecture. Taking these words as its starting point, the GAA Foundation is set to curate its fourth collateral exhibition in the context of La Biennale di Venezia Architettura, entitled Time-Space-Existence and opening in May 2018. Featuring over 100 established and emerging architects, and unapologetically international in breadth, the exhibition provides a fascinating complement to a biennial traditionally drawn along national lines. This interview series has been made possible with the support of the European Cultural Centre. For more on this series: plane-site.com/projects/time-space-existence/ PLANE—SITE: plane-site.com/

Works by Enrico Castellani, Lucio Fontana, Yves Klein, Joseph Kosuth, Piero Manzoni Curated by Cornelia Lauf 19 May – 28 July 2017

Known for his playful use of language, Joseph Kosuth has always been interested in what lies outside of the frame of a work — often spilling out into rooms and buildings. In this video from the Time Space Existence series, he discusses his relationship with architecture and the responsibility of the artist to work against the market. The Time Space Existence video series has already featured both prominent and emerging architects including Denise Scott Brown, Peter Eisenman, Meinhard von Gerkan, WOHA Architects, Curtis Fentress, Dirk Hebel, Arata Isozaki and others. This interview series has been made possible with the support of the European Cultural Centre. For more on this series: plane-site.com/projects/time-space-existence/ PLANE—SITE: plane-site.com/
