The Pablo Helguera Manual of Contemporary Art Style

By: Pablo Helguera

This funny book masquerades as an old-fashioned guide to the manners and foibles of the art world, written by a savvy 21st century artist. But it is clever, and has many voices: snide like Miss Manners, sweet and impeccable like Emily Post, sharp like Swifts encyclopedia of clichs, and sneaky like David Wilsons fabricated documents for the Museum of Jurassic Technology.

Art Scenes

By: Pablo Helguera

In this provocative new book, Pablo Helguera argues that contemporary art makes us perform self-conscious or instinctive interpretive acts; and that the construction of value in artworks is determined less by the objects themselves than by the nature of our interpretive performances, having a trickle-down effect on practically every aspect of art in society. Based on many years of observations, Art Scenes aims to contribute to the neglected area of the sociology of contemporary art, proposing the inauguration of a field described as "Art World Studies." Pablo Helguera is a visual artist living in New York. He is the Director of Adult and Academic Programs at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. He is the author of many books including The Pablo Helguera Manual of Contemporary Art Style, What in the World ( A Museum's Subjective Biography) and Education for Socially Engaged Art.

Theatrum Anatomicum (and Other Performance Lectures)

By: Pablo Helguera

While Helguera writes in a manner that suggests parody, he is simultaneously deadly serious and entirely accurate... [he] astutely observes the politics of culture and its effects on society, what it means to us and how we are taught to appreciate it."--Amanda Coulson, "Art Review.

The Parable Conference

By: Pablo Helguera

An exercise in highly provocative, original thinking, Pablo Helguera's The Parable Conference asks loads of inconvenient questions about art, only to answer them through a series of entertaining fictions. "Is there too much art in the world?" "How should art be taught?" And, "Why do we want to relive Andy Warhol?" Helguera continues a long if recently disused tradition of creative fibbing in this enlightening epistolary book. Prophets and preachers use lies to tell the truth--so why shouldn't artists?" -Christian Viveros-Faune, art critic, The Village Voice "Pablo Helguera is a splendid liar, a first-class storyteller, a curious mind constantly in search of stories, a creator of parallel universes and impossible characters living in credible situations, which invariably probe our certainties, intuition and knowledge." -Naief Yehya, author and critic Pablo Helguera is a visual artist living in New York. He is the Director of Adult and Academic Programs at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. He is the author of many books including The Pablo Helguera Manual of Contemporary Art Style, What in the World ( A Museum's Subjective Biography), Education for Socially Engaged Art and ArtScenes.

Mobilizing Pedagogy

By: Pablo Helguera

Mobilizing Pedagogy serves as a document of two intersecting projects by leading practitioners of socially engaged art, Suzanne Lacy and Pablo Helguera. Since the early 1970s, Los Angeles artist, writer and professor Suzanne Lacy has been staging performance-based interventions that engage with social themes and urban issues, advocating for radical political change. Profoundly influenced by Lacy, New York-based Pablo Helguera represents the next generation of socially engaged artists. Through his performances, installations, exhibitions and writings he addresses history, pedagogy, sociolinguistics, ethnography and memory.Comprising text, photography, installation, collage, video and archival documentation, The School of Panamerican Unrest and The Skin of Memory/La Piel de la Memoria are representative of two seminal works by Helguera and Lacy (with anthropologist Pilar Riaño-Alcalá). Collectively these works incorporate many overlapping themes in the artists' practices, including immigration, race and social organisation, while more generally proving the efficacy and importance of socially engaged art today.

Artoons

By: Pablo Helguera

While providing an insider's perspective on the workings and contradictions of the contemporary art scene, Helguera's "Artoons" are satirical, critical, sometimes existential, and always entertaining.

Urÿonstelaii

By: Pablo Helguera

Urÿonstelaii

By: Pablo Helguera

In 1660, a mysterious sect of Dutch mystics arrived to an island in the New World with the objective to create a new society. Their governing principle revolved around the uninterrupted performance of a single dramatic work in seven tableaux vivants. Invoking alchemical imagery and hermetic thought, their goal was to arrive to a higher state of being by collectively embodying the symbolic representation of all of human and divine knowledge. Their experiment, which would last a century, would test the human boundaries of time, physical endurance, and the collective commitment toward an idea. "Like a 'lamb in wolf's clothing, ' Pablo Helguera uses the exoteric mechanisms of historical erudition to lure us to his magical island of the Ourobourians.But right about the time we lose our footing on the land's slippery shores-when we begin to wonder if the artist has gleaned an esoteric tradition for more than just source material for his island's symbols and nomenclature, when we start to navigate his land with the non-verbal hunches of the alchemists' score, and call into question the artifices we employ to gather the world around us-we realize Helguera has really taken us on a journey to another land altogether, the most forbidden of places: the self." -Lise Patt, founder and director of the Institute of Cultural Inquiry, Los Angeles "Pablo Helguera is a splendid liar, a first-class storyteller, a curious mind constantly in search of stories, a creator of parallel universes and impossible characters living in credible situations, which invariably probe our certainties, intuition and knowledge." - Naief Yehya, writer and critic
