Being Billy Apple DVD Screener
Author:
Screener for Being Billy Apple DVD available online from www.artfilms.com.au. Being Billy Apple is a documentary about the artist known as Billy Apple. Genius or con, the spectrum of opinion on the life and work of this New Zealand born maverick is infinite. Born Barry Bates in New Zealand in the 1930s Billy Apple studied at the Royal College of Art in London before re-branding himself Billy Apple a living work of art in 1962. Billy moved to New York in the mid-60s where he took part in a ground breaking Pop Art exhibition which featured Roy Lichenstein, Claus Oldenburg and Andy Warhol. He went on to run his own gallery, Apple, one of a handful of artist run spaces in Manhattan that was part of the emerging conceptual art scene. Billys art and life were extreme. When he ceased to be Barry Bates he cut off all contact with his family in New Zealand. As a living artwork everything he did was classified as art including works like Window Cleaning and Floor Scrubbing. Billy continually pushed the boundaries of what it meant to be an artist. Billy Apple has sparked outrage and incredulity, inspiration and awe. His works are held by some of the worlds most important galleries including the Guggenheim and The Tate. He never shuns controversy and lives every minute of his life as an artwork. Being Billy Apple isnt always easy, for him or those around him. It is, however, a fascinating journey from Pop Artist to Brand, with no shortage of heartache and humour along the way.
VernissageTV turns 500
Author:
We are celebrating our 500th episode! With an anniversary post that is, for a change, not a report on an art opening or an interview with a dealer or an artist. Rather, this video, entitled “500″ is a retrospective view on the last year and a half of VernissageTV. This video is also available as DVD. Press Release available at OpenPR: English / German. www.vernissage.tv “500″ recalls moments with artists, such as Robert Rauschenberg, fair directors, such as Samuel Keller, curators, such as Bice Curiger, designers, such as Konstantin Grcic, and architects, such as Zaha Hadid; scenes from exhibitions, private views and events, such as the Jeff Wall retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the opening of the Art Basel Miami Beach, or the after-show party of the Jonathan Meese exhibition at the Deichtorhallen in Hamburg. This video brings the viewer to the Art Positions containers on the beach of Miami, to the art hangar of Red Bull boss Dietrich Mateschitz, and finally, to a dash down the metallic slide created by Carsten Höller at the Tate Modern in London. The overwhelming success of the Vernissage TV art project wouldn’t have been possible without the commitment of the team, the open-mindedness and support of the protagonists of the art scene, and the response from our viewers and fans all over the world. “500″ is also an homage to VTV’s audience, the protagonists of the art scene, and the team. Special thanks go to our correspondents: Theodore Bouloukos …
James Kalm slides through this exhibition just before closing time to bring viewers a glance at works by one of todays most influential bad painters. Robert Williams has been a presence on the West Coast art scene for decades. He came to my attention while I was still in high school as the artistic director of Ed Big Daddy Roths studio. There after, he teamed up with the likes of Robert Crumb and S. Clay Wilson as a contributor to the iconic Zap Comix. In 1979 he birthed and became the Godfather of lowbrow and, in 1994 founded JUXTAPOZ Magazine. His aesthetic encompasses Hotrod and surf culture the seamy side of Hollywood grudge, punk, hipster, slacker, and scuzz, the epitome of current bad taste.
