When Rita McBride won the Munich public competition, her project was simply called Tower, but eventually she decided to call it Mae West because the actress had a comic and humoristic side, but at the same time she was a strong, modern woman. The 1.5 million euro competition was awarded to McBride in 2002 and has endured 8 years of public deliberation, political attack, and financial duress. In an attempt to keep the project visible and financially feasible throughout this absurdly long public process, she has continually produced works pertinent to the light weight 52 meter-high structure made of carbon. Items such as Mae West tapestries made in Mexico, a set of large steel templates to make your own Mae West, Mae West prints, Mae West survival kits consisting of a life vest of carbon (Mae West was slang for life vests in WWII), a commissioned celebrity fictional biography by Matthew Licht, a pin up, a bottle of alcohol, and a smaller tin set of templates - all placed in a metal tool case, Mae West posters, a propaganda video, as well as commissioned paintings of Mae West in paradise by Glen Rubsamen represent just a sampling of the varied production that has been assembled to date.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"http://www.printedmatter.org/catalogue/moreinfo.cfm?title_id=90594\"\u003eNovel\u0026#39;s website\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e"},{"locale":"nl","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLiteraire synopsis\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWestways \u003c/em\u003e is de vijfde aflevering in de voortschrijdende \u003cem\u003eWays\u003c/em\u003e-reeks van gezamenlijke romans van de Amerikaanse beeldhouwster Rita McBride.

Toen Rita McBride de openbare wedstrijd in M\u0026uuml;nchen won, heette haar project nog simpelweg Toren, maar uiteindelijk besloot ze het Mae West te noemen omdat de actrice een komische en humoristische kant had, maar tegelijk ook een sterke, moderne vrouw was. De aanbesteding ter waarde van 1,5 miljoen euro werd in 2002 aan McBride toegekend en heeft acht jaar van publiek overleg, politieke aanval en financi\u0026euml;le druk doorstaan. In een poging om het project tijdens dat absurd lange publieke proces zichtbaar en financieel haalbaar te houden, is de kunstenares blijven werken maken met belang voor de lichtgewicht-carbonstructuur van 52 meter hoog.

De belangrijkste clich\u0026eacute;\u0026rsquo;s van de kunstmarkt van de jaren 90 worden aangeraakt dankzij de combinatie van softcore-pornografie, nomadische mobiliteit en kunst die gemakkelijk door het publiek wordt gevat. \u003cem\u003eHeartways \u003c/em\u003e is het gezwollen, innemende verhaal van Genny O, een onschuldige jongedame die gedoemd is tot eeuwige maagdelijkheid. Ondanks alle inspanningen tot het tegendeel, is elke ontmaagding haar eerste keer. Met zowel drama als humor zien we hoe Genny O zoekt wat haar tekortkomt in de armen van haar kunstenaarsvoorwerp van verlangen. \u003cem\u003eHeartways \u003c/em\u003e is het geesteskind van de internationaal gerenommeerde kunstenares Rita McBride. Verderbouwend op de romanvorm werden de hoofdstukken geschreven door telkens andere medewerkers (John Baldessari, Erin Cosgrove, Douglas Coupland, Fabio, Michele Hierholzer, Rita McBride, Jennifer Nelson, Cate Rimmer, Joe Scanlan, Kimberly Sexton, Kathy Slade and Michael Turner), die romantische tableaus cre\u0026euml;ren die simultaan binnen en buiten de literaire conventies werken. Dit boek is het eerste in een geplande reeks van vier volumes, met elk boek gestoeld op een specifiek genre en gebruikmakend van een collectieve structuur.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVerhouding van de roman tot de praktijk van de kunstenaar\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDe roman \u003cem\u003eHeartways \u003c/em\u003e dient ook als tentoonstellingscatalogus bij Naked Came the Stranger, Rita McBrides tentoonstelling in het Kunstmuseum Lichtenstein. Daarom vermeldt elk hoofdstuk enkele specifieke kunstwerken. Het resultaat is een grappig, tragisch en scherp portret van verlangen, fantasie en frustratie in de internationale kunstwereld. Elke auteur werd met een uitnodigingsbrief gevraagd om te overwegen om te schrijven als Gina Ashcraft, de fictionele kunstenares van plaatsgebonden installaties. Er werd de auteurs gevraagd om vanuit de ik-persoon te schrijven, om elk hoofdstuk te beginnen en te be\u0026euml;indigen met een komen en gaan van locatie, en om seks in te voegen. De titel van de tentoonstelling, Naked Came the Stranger, komt van een extreem succesvolle softcore-roman door een een anonieme groep journalisten aan het eind van de jaren 60.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"http://www.printedmatter.org/catalogue/moreinfo.cfm?title_id=77152\"\u003eNovel\u0026#39;s website\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e"},{"locale":"fr","description":""}]},{"id":11948,"title":"Naked Came The ****  (by Gina Ashcraft)","dimensions":"17.7 x 10.8 cm, 137 p, language : English, publisher : Kunstmuseum Liechtenstein, Vaduz, ISBN : 3-906790-02-9","date_begin":"2002-01-01","material":"Ink, paper","short_description":"","art_status_id":13,"legal_status_id":47,"category_id":26,"platform_id":1,"deleted":false,"asset_count":3,"stream_count":0,"collection":"Collection M HKA, Antwerp","cached_tag_list":"artist novel","publishing_process_id":1,"annotation":"","date_end":null,"reference":"B 2026/523","stream_count_app":10,"permalink":"naked-came-the-by-gina-ashcraft","description_ru":null,"description_de":null,"description_es":null,"description_el":null,"short_description_du":null,"short_description_fr":null,"short_description_ru":null,"short_description_de":null,"short_description_es":null,"short_description_el":null,"description_ca":null,"short_description_ca":null,"description_it":null,"short_description_it":null,"cached_primary_asset_url":null,"cached_actor_names":null,"hide_from_json":false,"prev_platform_id":null,"description_uk":null,"short_description_uk":null,"description_tr":null,"short_description_tr":null,"mhka_works":true,"poster_image":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/mhka_ensembles_production/assets/public/000/025/547/large/Untitled680.jpg?1414056945","poster_credits":null,"translations":[{"locale":"en","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c!--[if gte mso 9]\u003e\u003cxml\u003e\r\n \u003co:DocumentProperties\u003e\r\n  \u003co:Version\u003e14.00\u003c/o:Version\u003e\r\n \u003c/o:DocumentProperties\u003e\r\n \u003co:OfficeDocumentSettings\u003e\r\n  \u003co:TargetScreenSize\u003e800x600\u003c/o:TargetScreenSize\u003e\r\n \u003c/o:OfficeDocumentSettings\u003e\r\n\u003c/xml\u003e\u003c![endif]--\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLiterary synopsis\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNaked Came the ****\u003c/em\u003e is a dime store novel that is the work of Thirteen authors: John Baldessari and Erin Cosgrove, Meg Cranston, David Gray, Philippine Hoegen, Loudres Iglesias, Axel Jablonski, Matthew Licht, Rita McBride, Glen Rubsamen, Juliao Sarmento, Dirk Snauwaert, Marcel Vos.
