【新入荷・新本】

Todd Hido Outskirts, Nazraeli Press, 2021

Hardcover. 56 pages. 356 x 432 mm. Color. Limited edition of 3,000 copies.

価格：11,550円（税込）

アメリカ人フォトグラファー、トッド・ハイド（Todd Hido）の作品集。作者の象徴とも言える作品であり、長らく絶版となっていた自身にとって2作目の作品集『 OUTSKIRTS』のリマスター版である。2019年に発売された『HOUSE HUNTING』の復刻版と同様に、出版社である「NAZRAELI PRESS」と作者が綿密に制作し、可能な限り忠実にオリジナルを再現した。より正確な色の表現、トーンや再度の微妙なニュアンスにより、印刷の品質は元のものよりも高いものとなっている。本作は、オリジナル版を手に入れられなかった図書館やコレクションにとって重要な資料となり、前作に続きアート界において作者の地位を確固たるものとしたと言えよう。

「写真を撮りたいと思ったら、誰かの家のドアを叩いて許可を得たりはしません」とトッド・ハイドは言う。私は助手席に陣取って、彼の撮影ドライブに付き合ったことがある。幹線道路から脇道に入り、いわゆる「風光明媚」と程遠いルートを行く。名もない道をドライブして、アメリカの「どこにでも」そして最も重要なことだが、「どの時代にも」ありそうな風景を選ぶので、そこがどこなのかはどうでもいい。ハイドは何かを探している。彼は「貪欲に」探し求めているという。「それが何かははっきりと言えないとしても」

一方、2001年に出版された「House Hunting」は、「歴史の中のある特定の瞬間のある特定のアメリカ」のポートレイトである。そこに写っているのは、経済的に抑圧された場所、恥ずかしい秘密を隠しきれていない暗くて空っぽの家、あるいは明かりが灯っているのに温かみを微塵も感じさせない家である。それと同時にこの作品は、アメリカ－具体的には第二次世界大戦後ならいつの時代のものでもおかしくないアメリカの郊外－のポートレイトである。そしてそこには、かつてアメリカンドリームを象徴していた白い木の柵から剥がれ零れ落ちた白いペンキの破片が生々しく描かれている。

ハイドの作品には、彼がオハイオ州ケントで過ごした70年代の青春が反響している。ケントは、ベトナム戦争に反対するデモの最中にオハイオ州防衛隊によって学生4名が射殺されたことで有名な町である。ハイドのイメージは、それを撮った写真家との関係性ではなく、ほぼ全ての鑑賞者につながりや共感を呼び起こす能力と共鳴している。これらの写真は控えめで、感情と歴史に満ち満ちているのに何も語ろうとはしない。

「私が夜に家の写真を撮るのは、その中にいる家族について想像を巡らせるからです」とハイドは教えてくれた。「そこで人々がどのようにして生活しているのか考えます。私にとって家の写真を撮ることは瞑想の1つの形です」このため「House Hunting」は、答えよりも問いかけに近い、答えのでない堂々巡りになっている。

これらの写真が存在するということは、写真家がこっそりと覗き見たはずだと思われるかもしれない。しかしハイドは、そのような秘密主義を否定している。暗闇で撮影する時でさえ、こそこそ身を隠すようなことはしないという。警察を呼ばれた時は、写真家と犯罪者の違いをはっきりと説明する。「公共の場で写真を撮ることは許されています」と彼は言う。「非常に多くの人々が、自分の家の周りは当然プライベートな空間だと思っていることは興味深い事実です」ハイドはこの偽りのプライバシーの感覚を強調し、増幅することで大きな仕組みにできた裂け目を露わにする。

「House Hunting」のサイズを43 x 35 cmにすることを出版者に提案されたハイドは戸惑ったという。「それが果たしていいのかどうか分かりませんでした。本が歪んでしまったり、本棚に突っ込まれたりしてほしくないと思いました」しかしこのサイズ感にしたことで、鑑賞者は自然とハイド自身が注意深く選び、編集した26点の写真にしっかりと向き合うことになった（写真集を作るときは必ずハイド自身がイメージの選択と編集を行っている）。

内容を意図的に縮小することで、ハイドは1つ1つの写真の意味と役割の決定的な重要性を示した。写真を本という“もの”��して体験することは、感情面の体験を補強する。こうして「House Hunting」の相棒として、全く同じサイズ、形、ページ数の「Outskirts」が2002年に出版されることになった。

– Katya Tylevich（アート/フィクションライター）, Outskirts (2002)

New oracle deck! I stopped by the Cleveland Museum of Art today to check out the shows on the Valois Tapestries and Georgia O'Keefe and picked this up in the gift shop. It's probably one of the only reasonable priced things in there. It's called the "Art Oracles" and takes inspiration and wisdom from famous artists.

“Architecture Exposed” LIGA book presentation

Saturday, October 28th 2017 from 4-6pm

Neutra VDL Research House 2300 Silver Lake Boulevard Los Angeles, CA 90039

The Neutra VDL House invites you to the launch of the second book of LIGA, Space for Architecture, Mexico City. The volume “Architecture Exposed” has the exhibition of architecture as its central theme.

Founding directors Wonne Ickx and Ruth Estevez, will engage in a conversation with architecture critic, historian and curator Sylvia Lavin on curating architecture.

The book reviews the recent exhibitions and interludes organized at LIGA in Mexico City and includes essays by Agnaldo Farias (University of Sao Paolo), Barry Bergdoll (MoMA), Carlos Mínguez Carrasco (Storefront NYC), Daniel Fernández Pascual (Cooking Sections), Florencia Rodriguez (PLOT), Anna Puigjaner + Guillermo López (MAIO), Paola Santoscoy (Museo Experimental El Eco), Rory Hyde (Victoria & Albert Museum), Tina DiCarlo (Princeton University) and Wonne Ickx (LIGA). The book is published by Park Books, and will be internationally available from January 2018.

LIGA, Space for Architecture, is an independent initiative founded in Mexico City in 2011 by Carlos Bedoya, Ruth Estévez, Wonne Ickx, Victor Jaimes and Abel Perles that promotes Latin American contemporary architecture through exhibitions, conferences and workshops. LIGA was created as a curatorial platform in order to stimulate the experimentation in relation to the architectural discipline and its possibilities as a discursive practice, expanding and establishing connections with other disciplines.

Neutra VDL Studio and Residence Exhibition News

Opening September 23: Tu Casa es mi casa at the VDL House

Tu casa es mi casa

Opening: Saturday September 23, 6-9 p.m.

Join the Los Angeles Forum for Architecture and Urban Design, Archivo Diseño y Arquitectura, and the Neutra VDL Studio and Residences for the opening of Tu casa es mi casa, an exhibition that connects two modernist houses in Los Angeles and Mexico City via the exchange of texts, objects, and installations by contemporary writers and architects/artists.

Three California-based writers–Aris Janigian, Katya Tylevich, and David Ulin-were asked to craft a letter to one of the three Mexico City-based design teams–Frida Escobedo, Pedro&Juana, and Tezontle–who responded with site-specific installations at the Neutra VDL House.

If our contemporary political moment offers up a border wall as the primary architectural expression of connection between the U.S. and Mexico, Tu casa es mi casa suggests a more porous boundary between the two countries. The title, a riff on the welcoming “my house is your house”, offers the inverted “your house is my house”–an expression of the personal and political stakes of this transposition.

Architects: Frida Escobedo, Pedro&Juana, Tezontle

Writers: Aris Janigian, Katya Tylevich, David Ulin

Photographer: Adam Wiseman

Curated by Mario Ballesteros, Andrea Dietz, Sarah Lorenzen, Mimi Zeiger

Organizational collaborators: Los Angeles Forum for Architecture and Urban Design, Archivo Diseno y Arquitectura, and the Neutra VDL Studio and Residences. The Neutra VDL Studio and Residences is preserved and managed by the College of Environmental Design (ENV) at Cal Poly Pomona.

Tu casa es mi casa is supported by the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts, the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, Cal Poly Pomona Foundation, Crosby Doe Associates / Architecture for Sale Magazine, Bestor Architecture, Michael Maltzan Architects, NAC Architecture, TEN Arquitectos with additional support from Aesop, Angel City Brewery, Bar Keeper and Mezcal Unión, Triview Glass Industries LLC, Cal Poly Pomona Department of Architecture (CPP ARC), Sci-Arc, USC School of Architecture, and Woodbury University School of Architecture.

Richard and Dion Neutra VDL Studio

Significance and Survival of Richard and Dion Neutra VDL Studio/residences

On November 20 2009 Richard Neutra’s youngest son Dr Raymond Richard Neutra will be talking at SciArc in Los Angeles about the Significance and Survival of the Richard and Dion Neutra VDL Studio/Residences compound in the Silver Lake district of Los Angeles. This live/work space was built in three phases.

View from VDL II toward the 1939 “Garden Wing”:

View of west elevation of VDLII:

The first designed by Richard Neutra in 1932 accommodated two households and Neutra’s office. It was named after Dutch industrialist van der Leeuw who loaned Neutra the money to build it (hence “VDL”) The second phase was designed by Richard Neutra in 1939 and accommodated another household. In 1963 a fire destroyed the upper floors of the first phase, and Richard Neutra with his son and partner Dion Neutra designed a replacement for that wing (VDLII) on the original prebricated prestressed concrete basement floor which was preserved to house an apprentices room and dark room.

The compound was built on a 60 x 70 foot lot and addressed a number of design questions that are still relevant today: How can we create a beautiful live/work space for multiple households on a small footprint? How can we design landscape so that it beings nature with its sights sounds and smells into this kind of urban dwelling? How can we use new sustainable industrial materials in a beautiful way? How can the social and biological sciences inform our design?

Dr Neutra, Professor Lorenzen (resident direct of VDL) Leo Marmol and Chris Shanley in front of the compound with its sun louvers:

View from patio toward VDLII:

Since 2007 Cal Poly Pomona College of Environmental Design (owners of the compound), helped by the Friends of the VDL Research site has established an active web site ( www.neutra-vdl.org) explaining the significance of the compound, presenting plans and images and a video oral history of the place. A DVD on the compound has also been produced. A distinguished honorary committee with such distinguished architects as Tadao Ando, Richard Meier, Renzo Piano and IM Pei among others have indicated their regard for this historic compound. Architects Marmol and Radziner are working with Dion Neutra and the faculty at Cal Poly to repair the leaking roofs.

The college has started student-led drop-in tours for $10.00 every Saturday from 11am to 3:00 pm.

Julius Shulman signing digital archival prints of his portrait of Richard Neutra:

More that $60,000 has been raised and the distinguished architectural photographer, Julius Shulman before his recent death signed and numbered thirty five digital archival prints that he took of Neutra on the roof of the compound. Those who give leadership level gifts to the roof campaign can receive one of these prints in appreciation. (see www.neutra-vdl.org for information)

Illustrations: all by Raymond Richard Neutra

Careful fenestration of the living room blocks neighbor roofs and emphasizes trees and mountains:

Ripples from Reflection pool on second floor patio reflect light into the interior:

Frosted glass in Garden Wing Living room let’s in light but blocks view of neighbor:

Todd Hido’s Monographs

“Roaming”

#2431

#3212-B

“House Hunting” 2001

Untitled #1951, 1997

Untitled #2736,2000

Todd Hido grew up in the suburbs of Kent, Ohio and all of his photos give 70s vibes because it represents his childhood (somewhere, 2017). Most of his photos come from just driving around wondering about what would be a good picture to come out good or where they would be able to fit into his story or they came from his relationships with his wife and ex girlfriends. His photos are very mysterious and I believe that's what he wants his viewers to see and wonder just how he did in the moment that he took the photos. He stated in an interview “I am also inspired by things that are in my daily visual path (Kraft,Unknown). Hido has made books that just show pictures of things he has come across. Some of the books are called “House Hunting”, “A Road Divided”and “Intimate Distance”. We will be looking at the books “House Hunting” and “Roaming”.

Todd Hido’s monograph “House hunting” came out in 2001 when Hido was 34 (Berton,2019) and had a total of 26 selected photographs. The pictures for House Hunting were taken on long drives alone, the reason he took these pictures was because he wanted to know how other people lived their lives. In an interview Todd Hido stated ‘I take photographs of houses at night because I wonder about the families inside them, I wonder about how people live, and the act of taking that photograph is a meditation (Somewhere,2017). The pictures were displayed in a book with just regular suburban houses that only showed you lights from inside the house, they keep you guessing what is happening inside of the houses that he has taken pictures of. Through his lens, suburban dwellings were cold places where secrets were kept, lies were told, and terrible things occurred — especially at night (Berton,2019).

Todd Hido’s monograph “Roaming” is to show that he doesn't just take pictures of suburban houses he wanted to show the world that he does not have to take the same pictures to get a good picture (Tylevich). The photos in Roaming are still taken from his car but shows how the outside world looks mostly in the daytime. He even made it look like it was raining on days that it wasn’t raining by splashing some water on the windshield. In the text that Katya Tylevich wrote about Todd Hido’s “roaming” monograph it states “Sometimes the artist sprays glycerin on the windshield, for a different kind of effect. It’s a technique he compares to changing paint brushes. The size, direction and position of drops of water on the car window inform the photograph that results, and within these fictitious raindrops, Hido says he can ‘compose’ the real picture that he wants to see. Ultimately, each photograph is a composition. It is a way of giving shape to a mental state, as opposed to capturing an actual setting (Tylievich).” This just shows that not all photos show what is authentic but I don’t think it really matters because it shows what Hido wanted to make it look like.

That is what makes “Roaming” and “House Hunting” different because most of the pictures in house hunting are pictures of houses during the night while roaming had pictures of no houses and were taken during the day, but both have this very mysterious look to them and makes them still feel dark. I believe that the photos by Todd Hido are supposed to cause his viewers questions. The photos from Roaming may be during the day time but they cause you to question, ‘What is happening here?’ Why is it alway raining when he takes pictures?’ What was the point of this photo?’. I believe that was the whole point, he took these photos that were in front of him but they all correlate together even if the two bodies of work I’ve looked at are supposed to be different, you could tell that they all correlate or look like they are meant to be together.

Combat Creative Block with Life Lessons from Famous Artists by Alexxa Gotthardt

Move over, Magic 8 Ball. Step aside, fortune cookie. There’s a new oracle in town—and it delivers wisdom inspired by 50 of history’s most inspired artists, from Vincent van Gogh to Frida Kahlo to Yayoi Kusama.

Introduced this month, “Art Oracles: Creative & Life Inspiration from Great Artists” is the brainchild of art writer Katya Tylevich, illustrator Mikkel Sommer, and Laurence King Publishing. Part tarot deck and part imaginative art history lesson, each of its 50 cards hosts an artist’s illustrated portrait alongside poetic, pithy tidbits of advice inspired by their lives, artworks, and personalities.

Tylevich and her compatriots designed the cards “to help people with creative block, life block, or simply boredom,” she tells me over the phone from Los Angeles. “It’s meant to be fun, engaging, and a little mystical—the way art is itself.”

The writer has devoted her career to exploring some of the biggest questions that shroud art: “What attracts people to certain artworks and to certain artists?” and “Why do we look to them and their work to make sense of our own lives?” she explains. So, when Laurence King Publishing approached her with “a bit of a crazy proposal” for a tarot-inspired game that imparts imagined words of wisdom from famous artists, she immediately signed on.

The first order of business was to compile a list of 50 artists who’d grace the cards and, in turn, dole out advice. Tylevich felt that they should be well known. “It’s more fun when people understand the references and are in on the jokes,” she explains. She also looked for artists who had strong personalities and made unique work—qualities that would translate into potent insight that the cards could impart.

All of the creatives who made the cut are “inimitable characters,” she says. “They have engaging or enchanting personalities, they’ve lived extraordinary (good or bad) lives, they’ve said and done shocking things, and have inspired generations of people to unsuccessfully copy them.” The final list includes Ai Weiwei, R. Buckminster Fuller, Artemisia Gentileschi, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Georgia O’Keeffe, Michelangelo, Pablo Picasso, Piet Mondrian, Paul Gauguin, Salvador Dalí, and many more.

But the greater challenge for Tylevich still lay ahead: to conceive of advice these artists might give in response to some of life’s most pressing questions. Her research process was long and meticulous, leading her deep into library stacks and through countless art history tomes, biographies, video interviews, artworks, and obituaries. “I prepared as if I were writing a hardcore academic analysis,” she remembers. “I researched their personalities and habits, their manners of speaking, their particularities.”

The resulting cards each deliver three pieces of advice: the first related to life (indicated by a swirl), the second to work (indicated by a pencil), and the third to inspiration (indicated by an eye). Inspired by the artists’ personalities, life experiences, and artworks, the phrases shift from witty to poetic, from humorous to profound.

Take van Gogh, for instance. Under a beautiful illustration of the Post-Impressionist artist post-ear hack (a red coiff emerges from a large bandage on his head), his guidance is scrawled. For life advice, the card delivers: “If committed, stay committed.” The phrase could be interpreted countless ways: “Stay committed to your project, committed to your artwork, whatever it is you’re trying to see through to the end,” notes Tylevich. But it’s also a reference to van Gogh’s history of mental illness and institutionalization. “Even when he was committed to an institution, he still he still kept making artwork,” she continues.

“Posthumous recognition requires a paper trail,” is the card’s advice for work, referring to the letters van Gogh left to his brother. They documented the artist’s personal life, artistic process, and mental state, all of which has provided essential insight into his practice and, in turn, bolstered his reputation. For inspiration, Tylevich settled on “Use daylight to face the night,” a nod to his most famous painting, Starry Night, and “the darkest elements of his being, of his psyche, of his life,” she explains.

Each artist’s counsel varies widely. “It’s almost like calling a friend then calling your mom and hearing diametrically opposed advice,” says Tylevich. “But both of them have weight to whatever you’re going through.”

For inspiration, Marina Abramović’s card advises: “When a stranger stares into your soul do not press charges. Stare back,” an allusion to her legendary durational performance from her 2010 retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art, during which she invited visitors to stare into her eyes. Leonardo da Vinci’s counsel for work reads: “Dissect what makes us human.”

Like the guidance that emerges from any good oracle, the cards’ axioms are open-ended and mysterious enough to apply to any question you’re asking of them. “And yet they’re very specific to the artists themselves, too,” Tylevich notes.

So what happens when you canvas “Art Oracles” for life advice and Duchamp’s card pops up? It will suggest “Scandal before stardom”—and that is a motivating message, indeed.
