I may love object art I understand where ur coming from

I loved this ❤ I now am a Judith Scott fan.

While I agree with the frustration of the exclusion of Asian work in Art History. It’s Western Art History. It’s a canon of art that stems to the Greek Empire. Asian work really only began contributing around modernism and in limited ways. Asian works have been considered mostly as decorative or craft by western art standards. It began to bleed in with Japan in the 19th century.

cha is truly phenomenal ! do you have any art history or art theory books that would be a great read? love your videos :)

Hi, I’m really interested in seeing more of Chunghie Lee, do you have links for her art? Cause I was really interested in the No Name Woman (2001), but I can’t seem to find it? It would be amazing if you could share that! 😊

I'm really enjoying your content. Thanks

Thank you for this video! I am currently conducting research on Mine Okubo and I am experiencing trouble finding articles and research about her. I feel as though I am going in circles finding the same things said about her and want to introduce a new idea or fill in a gap, somehow I haven't found it yet despite the lack of research on her, but hopefully i will have my AHA moment soon!

visited seoul mmca last month and fell in love with her work! can't wait to learn more about her through your video :)

Pick a horse

been meaning to dive into her work and this video is a sign the universe pushing me to - thank u so much for making and sharing this!

비디오 잘 봤어요!!! actually found out about 차학경 through Hong's essay collection and was incredibly moved. so much so i had to pick up Dictée. i love her work on language, approach to language, and the body. MMCA in Seoul recently featured some of her works in an exhibition around east asian female art and the body and also had quite the quiet cry sesh :'))) but always love seeing another lover of her work out there in the world. thank you for this! <333

Amazing, amazing, amazing. As someone who grew up in a bilingual household but didn't actually become bilingual (or maybe I was already if it was in my brain...?) until I was an adult (again, are you bilingual if you can understand the other language but you don't speak or read/write it?), fascinating that Hak Kyung Cha was able to create a visual representation, a literary representation of the thought processes that occurred in her mind when confronted with the written Latin alphabet; when confronted with one language when she knew three. (Probably the same goes when confronted with the aspects of the different cultures.) I am anxious to read Dictee now. Thank you! And to explore her other works. You have expanded my mind. Again, thank you. Please keep making your videos.

5 minutes ago, shannon kim, theresa hak kyung cha, and shitty instant korean coffee in my left hand yeah this night is about to be a blast

so good! I knew so little about her even though her work is so recognisable and influential. I just finished four years of fine art degree and ur vids are better than so many lectures I had lool don’t stop!

On the controversy of AI art - that’s not the issue a lot of us have with it. Plenty of other issues - high energy use/not eco friendly, concerns about making entry level jobs obsolete, etc

Anyone want to drop the @ of the ai mcm wholesale account? I couldn’t find it in my search

So interesting! Thank you for the research you put into this!

I love this!! Such an excellent video! I was just looking for some educational content on Korean modern art and stumbled upon this - exactly what I was looking for!!❤️

Thank you ❤ I really enjoy your videos! Keep going!

Holy crap. New favorite channel! If you ever want to collaborate with an artist channel I'd love to talk about the influence of conceptual art on reality the artists applying for grants today. My work is both hand and mind work of my own but in order to get funding for art I have to translate my hand work into narratives funders identify as conceptually valid.

need more youtube channels that talk about and analyse the intersections between art/politics/philosophy. i feel so starved of critical analysis

thank you for your videos they make me so happy and interested please keep up

Hey amazing deep dive on Okubo the rest of her works are actually available to see in her home city of riverside in The center for social Justice & civil liberties. Her work is absolutely amazing to see in person I definitely recommend checking it out.

great video! just a little correction-paris is burning surrounds trans girls + ballroom culture

Hi Shannon - are you familiar with Wanda Gag’s work? She is an artist that roamed around the early 20th century NYC art scene amongst the Duchamps and O’Keeffes but she also ironically produced the most accessible form of “art”/literature: children’s books. I saw her lithographies at the Whitney last weekend and was so deeply moved by the depiction of energy and magnetism between the objects and the lack of space/nothingness in her lithographies. I love what she wrote in her diary in 1929: “there is to me, no such thing as an empty place in the universe (…) I am just as eager as nature to fill a vacuum with something - if nothing else, at least with a tiny rhythm of its own, that is a rhythm created by its surrounding forms.”

accidentally found your very first video and i love your content! i work at an art museum and we just had an exhibit on Rodin so i had to watch this when i saw it 😂

Kind of a tangent, but I think it's interesting how the found object is not considered "art" until it's repurposed given that status by the artist. Who gets to be an artist? With things like a urinal or a wheel there's already been a lot of intentional design work and skilled physical labor leading into that product. Is it not already art? There's some gray area for sure but maybe some of the found objects are more like Columbus'd objects. IMO the separation of physical vs mental labor in art is such a big topic it probably deserves its own video, especially when it comes to large scale collaborative projects with creative directors or shareholders.

Sou do Brasil e estou amando seus vídeos. Não deixe de postar!

Such an interesting talk touching upon different angles and facets

Love this video!!

Duchamp's exhibits were a wry bitchslapping of a then-nascent pimp-and-whore firmament over the art world(which is solidly established as an industry today). The collective efforts of upscale gallery proprietors, critics, apex collectors, and "patrons", amalgamated for the sole purpose of perpetuating elitism, and getting rich from the labors of meticulously groomed talent who often see a fraction of the money realized by their work. It was also an effective 'épater le bourgeois' pie-in-the-face, which challenged everyone to ruminate on what art truly "IS", and what it means to them. Brilliant, subversive rabble-rousing in a time before such things were "cool".

Virgil Abloh very literaly used Duchamp as a shield from critizism by saying ”Duchamp is my lawyer” I dont necesarilly think hes wrong tho.

Great video!!! My final project was written on Mendieta for my masters degree. Absolutely tragic losing Mendieta in such a violent way. Even more crushing to know that Carl Andre and his work can be seen at large institutions after being acquitted for her murder. I highly recommend reading the book ‘where is Ana Mendieta?’ It explains a lot about the art worlds reputation for dismissing female artists. Mendieta and her work are such treasures xx

Your video is excellent. I recently saw the exhibition of her work at The Toledo Museum of Art. I went twice to really take it in and purchased the catalogue online. She is an amazing artist and her life story is so interesting. I'm so glad you did this video to bring attention to her and reinforce what some of us are learning and discovering about this underrepresented artist. Great video.

Before the 1945 Duchamp wasnt widely famous. Idea art wasnt a thing. His legacy is a 1970s fabricated narrative about how the avant garde emerged before ww2. The avant garde became the establishment after the war & twisted earlier 20th century art history, legitimising itself & deligitimising "classical" art made at the same time. The urinal is fake.

don't worry, you're not talking about jane jacobs too much! when you mentioned her book in your last video, it reminded me that i was meaning to read it - i've started it now and it is FANTASTIC.

never thought about it this way! while i was watching i was thinking about how labor outsourcing is a part of pretty much every field… and the only conclusion i can come to is it’s capitalism and imperialism. its built into how our world is run. also, fashion is a form of art and my god fast fashion is horrible. i am a found object artist myself, but i use the objects along with my skills and transform them to be in a very new physical and intellectual space. i really had never thought about found object art in this way and how for some people it can be used to exploit.

Goodwill and thrift stores are My favorite found object and found art galleries are Goodwill and other thrift stores.

I'd like to add to the part about managers. They are more than overseers. Management is put in place as a middle man that ensures the business owners or higher ups don't have to make contact with the workers. The managers swallow all of the complaints and abuse from the workers, much like in restaurants where the waitress takes all the abuse of the diner who has no access to yell at the chef. The position of management also exists to give workers false hope that there is a fair ladder structure in the business they work for, that if they work hard enough they will be promoted into the middle class. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk

this video is amazing! thank you so much!

I enjoy very much your videos, Kim. Greetings from Brazil ☺

Hello I do study art history and would say I’m adamantly opposed to this opinion but I appreciate you took the time to share it. You should know that Serra was actually involved with the physical making of some of these large pieces as some of the specifications he required were beyond the capabilities of the factories he was working with. Thinking vs doing is a sort a slippery slope when considering the process Duchamp went through in order to have his fountain presented but I understand your issue with others labor being negated in general when speaking about the readymade. Ultimately an intellectual pursuit that results in a precise art object will be lauded over a composition of a skilled draftsman who has sailed for weeks but without rudder and compass because we’ve accepted a divided between art and craft and that acceptance predates Duchamp by quite some time in reality. Great video!

Just watched >every< single one of your videos. I am obsessed with your channel! Please continue to enlighten us and inspire us with your own research.

Visual art is pretentious and B.S.

I don't think the tik toks you showed are "ai art" really. there was clear labor put into their creation, they just used some elements which we now classify as "ai"
