Cindy Sheman变成老奶奶了

This is a collection of Cindy Sherman's latest photographs, some of which are on show at Sprüth Magers London until 27 May 2009. The artist, now 55, has acted as her own model throughout her career. Here, she is thinking about wrinkles, and in these images she has painted latex on her skin to create lines more dramatic than her own. She has covered them with orange pancake and rouge to create a meditation on ageing – and what happens when past-it skin and cash collide

How I Made It: Cindy Sherman on Her 'Untitled Film Stills'

不是青春无敌，只是不化妆也好看

CHRISTIAN BOLTANSKI

'The big problem when you're an artist is that the times of creation don't come often. Most of the time I stay here in my studio and groan, and after that I go to my room, look at the TV.

記憶的虛實與展演－從Christian Boltanski的《D家庭相簿》談起

Marlene Dumas

I never meant to stay
I suppose that's what they all say.

It was my first time in a peepshow
so when the girl smiled at me
I said "Only looking" and she replied
"That's how I got started here too".

Bacon and Dumas or The discomfort of being "coupled"

Marlene Dumas: Name No Names

Dumas's words and images refuse singular meaning, yet they frame serious political and ethical questions about apartheid, race, gender, and sexuality. By retaining- even insisting on- ambiguity, Dumas skillfully keeps complicated, open questions just that: questions. Working in what has been called a neo-expressionist, conceptualist style, Dumas has been written about as sharing traits with such diverse artists as Jenny Holzer, Emil Nolde, Barbara Kruger, Edvard Munch, Barbara Bloom, and Francis Bacon. Her recent depictions of strippers and prostitutes are phantoms of Egon Schiele's muses from the early twentieth century. Dorothy D-lite (1998), bent-over double, vulva displayed, emerges from the thin inkwash as if she were a flickering light. In Under the Volcano (1998), death and sex merge forces; the skin of the stripper has been infused with a fiery glow, and she peers back over her shoulder at the viewer, beckoning ghoulishly with vacant eyes and too-white teeth. Dumas's strippers, drawn after snapshots she took herself in the red-light district of Amsterdam, are most definitely naked, and most definitely engaged in the trafficking of cheap thrills. Marlene Dumas wouldn't have it any other way.

I am against:general ideas
the nude
the appropriation of images
the mystification of the untitled
the glorification of artistic doubt
the fuzzy edges of sensitivity
old sins
and useless guilt.
