LONDON ATHENS NEW YORK

MeetIvan Suvanjieff #ICONS

A multifaceted artist & activist with a background as an editor at CREEM magazine!

Your solo exhibition, "Quanta Dada London," draws inspiration from the original Dada movement of 1916. How do you see the parallels between the world events that inspired Dadaism then and the contemporary issues that fuel your "Quanta Dada" series today?

I created my artistic series, "Quanta Dada", to express my disgust with what is happening in the world today. I am drawn to the Dada movement of 1916-1923, because it was a powerful reaction to World War I by artists who believed that war itself is craziness incarnate.

Dada artists used humor and absurdity to hold up a mirror to the absurdity of a world around them. Today, we find ourselves back where we were 100 years ago -- only now, we have weapons much more powerful than before. In this era of crushing autocracy, global greed, and a world on the brink of destruction, I believe it is time for a new Dadaism which can shock us back to our senses. It is time for Quanta Dada.

Your diverse body of work spans various mediums, from music to literature to film. How do you navigate the differences in expression between these mediums, and do you find that each form of expression informs the others in your artistic journey?

Each form of expression definitely informs the others. It happens mainly because of the people you get close to. Being pen pals with the writer Charles Bukowski actually bolstered my approach to Desmond Tutu, and being friends with author Lucia Berlin encouraged me to always keep humor in my work. And fellow literary publisher, Romanian poet, and the author of “The Posthuman Dada Guide”, Andrei Codrescu, was the first to recognize the Dada in my paintings. As he said at the time: “After decades of keeping away from Dada, which I inherited from my ghost-daddy Tristan Tzara, I wrote a sane book advising sane people to stay away from it. I thought I succeeded. Then I saw Ivan Suvanjieff’s work that streams like a quantum computer, and I knew that I will never escape as long as a human can make Quanta Dada!

Your black and white pieces really stand out in the explosion of colour that is most of the works featured in “Quanta Dada London”, can you tell us a little bit more about them?

For twelve years, I painted only in black and white, in order to learn more about color. Ignore something long enough and maybe it will go away.

It was a difficult challenge, my black and white period, and I became a better painter as a result. I came to love the thousands of different shades of gray, the clash of opposites of negative space, etc.

The vibrant colors of the place where I live, Spain’s Costa Brava, are in a ‘danse de la mort’ with the bleakness of a world at war. That was what I captured in my “Quanta Dada London” solo show.

#ICONS

Meet Bizare

The celebrated artist left us in 2023 but his work continues to inspire!

Born in the vibrant city of Athens in 1976, Stelios Faitakis embarked on his artistic journey with a can of spray paint in hand, making his mark as BIZARE in the 90's street art scene - think mesmerizing gold backgrounds that catch the eye and heart.

One of Stelios's standout pieces is "Siege (Allegory of Florida)" created for the Wynwood Walls project at Art Basel Miami Beach in 2009. This piece is a visual feast, showcasing a dynamic ensemble of worshippers, workers, musicians, and more, all set against a stunning backdrop that melds Byzantine charm with Art Deco sophistication. It's a true spectacle of technical brilliance and artistic vision.

Faitakis was recognized as a trailblazer in the Greek street art scene. His artwork was noted for its deep references, drawing inspiration from Byzantine era hagiographies and paintings. Brunswick Bound editions, when introducing Faitakis' publication, highlighted his art as disconcerting in its perspectives and challenging in its subject matter. They pointed out the striking contrasts in his visuals, such as giraffes with Medusa heads alongside skateboarders navigating through cataclysmic waves, or saints and odd criminals mixed with figures of tormented lovers amidst scenes filled with violence, mortality, and chaos.

Faitakis himself cited his motivation stemming from famous painters like José Clemente Orozco, Diego Rivera, and the broader Mexican street art culture He expressed admiration for European masters such as Brughel and Hieronymus Bosch, along with contemporary artists like Neo Rauch, particularly for their depiction of "industrial alienation " Above all, Faitakis' work was perceived as a profound exploration of "modern Greek" "day-to-day existence "

SvenWeigle

Through his grandparents' reproduction company, Weigle Reprotec, the German conceptual artist Sven Weigle came into contact with the broad field of art at a very early age. Especially through the influence of his grandfather, Theo Weigle, a successful painter and sculptor, art has become an important and pioneering part of his life

www.svenweigle.com

mgmt@weigle net

The realisation of artistic projectsparticularly the implementation of something abstract into something specific - delights and fascinates him.

With his work, he wants to pick out varying, especially socio-critical topics and to admit individual interpretations.

As inspiration, he uses the experience in the interaction with people who, with their individuality, behaviour and being as they are, repeatedly provide him with new input for his artistic work and his own development.

Interviewwith DJYoda #ICONS

Can you give us insight into your early inspirations, and how did you first get started in the world of DJing?

My parents both worked in the music industry My dad kept his record collection in my bedroom, so I grew up literally surrounded by records. I loved 80s pop as a kid, but the first music I got into for myself was hip-hop, which, at the time, was very led by sampling and scratching That was the stuff that really caught my ear, so I tried to emulate at home. This led to making mixtapes, and eventually selling them, and teaching myself to DJ and produce.

Your work spans a fascinating range of collaborations, from classical composers to neuroscientists. Can you share what drives you to seek out such diverse partnerships?

I've now been DJing and producing for 30 years. The way that I've found to keep it interesting and fresh for myself is to keep collaborating and trying different styles every year. My whole interest in the turntables as a musical instrument has always centred around taking it away from the traditional club environment - can you incorporate a scratch DJ into a brass band? A choir? A library? These are the things that fascinate me.

DJ Yoda is a multi-award winning hip-hop DJ and producer, headlining festivals and clubs worldwide.

Transitioning from ‘turntablism’ to producing full albums, like "Home Cooking," represents a significant shift. What inspired this evolution in your career?

My background was the turntablism scene of the 90s, which is really where I learnt the technical craft. But that scene kind of imploded, when it got too focussed on intricacies of the technical side. I wanted to take those basic skills and then think about how to create music that just felt good to listen to. I tried with each of my five albums to learn new skills and go into new areas. That's why an album like "Home Cooking" was very much a journey into the UK jazz scene for me. And my last album "Prom Nite" was heavily inspired by the music of the 1950s.

The "Stranger Things Mixtape" achieved viral success. What was your process in creating it, and how did you approach blending the show's themes with your style?

It's always come naturally to me to make themed mixtapes. I spent a year really deep-diving into Asian music, then made a mixtape of everything I learnt. The same with country & western. And so on. When "Stranger Things" first came out on Netflix, the influences really struck a chord with me, so I just collated those influences with the amazing music in the first season of the show and made a mix, like I always do. To be honest, that mix only took me a day or two, which is really fast for me, but now that mix has been streamed over a million times!

Performing at Banksy's Dismaland must have been an extraordinary experience. Can you tell us more about that event and your role in it?

I DJ'd for Banksy for one of his very first London exhibitions, and I was really proud that he asked me to come and play at Dismaland too. Especially given the very esteemed company I was in musically. The night I played was with Run The Jewels and Mos Def, who I've always been fans of too. I performed an audio-visual set - I scratch and mix video as well as songs - and that night, I felt I had licence to do things a bit more like an art instillation, so I used a lot of weird and wonderful samples. I had a great time.

You've pioneered a new form of audiovisual entertainment, merging clubbing with cinema. What challenges did you face in merging these two worlds?

Because there was no precedent for me - in other words, no DJs came before me who mixed video, I had to learn a lot of things the hard way. For a while I struggled trying to get the attention of ravers in clubs, trying to get them to pay attention to a screen. Until I realised that people don't really want to watch and dance. So a lot of the issues came down to where and when to perform AV shows. I played in cinemas, IMAX's, movie festivals, cultural events. Essentially, I figured out that the bigger and better the screen, the more impact the show will have. I'm constantly battling the technologybecause no-one else is doing this, I'm the guinea pig, finding flaws and bugs in the combinations of everything I'm using. That can be frustrating. But it pays off when I feel like I've done something new. At the moment I'm experimenting with audiovisual synthesis and scratching - making visuals shapes with scratching.

Throughout your discography, is there a particular album or track that stands out to you as the most personally significant, and why?

I got to make two songs with my favourite rapper of all time, Biz Markie, who sadly passed away in 2021. So those really stand out to me as something special.

With such an innovative approach to music and performance, how do you stay inspired and continue to push the boundaries of what's possible in DJing and production?

Sometimes it's technology-led. So if a new piece of software or equipment comes out, I start to think about what I can do that's never been done before. Other times it's more traditional inspiration - I'll see a movie, or hear a song, or even just go for a walk, and start to think about new ways of combining things to make something.

Natalia

For Natalia, art is akin to a complex mystery awaiting unraveling. She views each piece as a dense concentration of ideas or concepts, not immediately apparent to the observer The true essence of her work lies beneath the surface, demanding analysis and interpretation to uncover the underlying themes or messages a process from which she derives immense satisfaction.

@presidentialmodel www artmajeur com/presidentialmodel

As a mixed media artist, Natalia thrives on experimenting with various techniques and blending seemingly incompatible styles. She has a particular affinity for neo-surrealism and neopurism, along with analog photography. This eclectic approach allows her to create unique and thought-provoking artworks that stand as physical embodiments of her intricate ideas and concepts Through her art, Natalia invites viewers into a world where every piece is a puzzle, challenging them to look beyond the obvious and explore the depths of their interpretation.

#STAYCREATIVE

Meet Jan Tichy

A contemporary artist and educator working with the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where he is now Assistant Professor at the Department of Photography.

Your work often explores the intersection of various mediums. How does this multidisciplinary approach influence the way you guide students in their creative projects for ART on THE MART?

In my work, the media typically adheres to the concept, which is something I strive to impart to my students. In the context of Art on theMart, where the medium –digital projection - is predetermined, we opted for the theme of "Analog" to encourage students to explore various forms of media production based on their ideas.

Community engagement seems to be a crucial element of your work. Can you tell us more about how this project involves or impacts the community?

It largely depends on the project. When invited to interact with a community or a group of people, I make an effort to listen and collaborate, fostering spaces for exchange and potential impact. For instance, when I was invited by the MSU Broad Museum to create a piece in response to the Flint Water Crisis, I facilitated connections between teens from the affected areas and those from areas dealing with other social conflicts. Often, my works serve as platforms for sharing and fostering connections.

Reflecting on your extensive experience in exhibitions and community projects, what unique challenges and rewards come with working on large-scale public art installations like ART on THE MART?

Large-scale public installations offer a unique means of communicating with audiences. Artists must respect the shared public space, which operates under a different social contract compared to traditional art spaces such as galleries and museums. In many cases, this necessitates a distinct artistic sensitivity. Nevertheless, such installations afford us the opportunity to share our art with a much larger audience.

Given your successful career and contributions to both the art and academic worlds, what advice do you have for artists aspiring to work on large-scale public projects?

opportunities to engage projects during their time at g on the institution and Apprenticeships with artists production studios can also to the medium and its these experiences, it easier to pursue various open calls that sometimes use to recruit

The collaboration with SAIC students is a unique aspect of this project. What do you hope the students take away from this experience?

It is a unique opportunity for our students to engage with such a vast public platform. In addition to the experience of developing a new project on a new platform and medium, Art on the Mart provides exposure to a wide audience of thousands of people from various walks of life.

What motivates you to engage with communities through your art?

My fundamental belief is that art has the ability to effect change. While it may not solve our problems outright, it can facilitate our engagement with them.

The Holy Art Gallery community is all about embracing artists from diverse backgrounds. How important do you believe diversity and inclusion are in the art world?

Your exhibitions have been showcased globally, from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago to the Kunsthalle Osnabrueck in Germany. What do you find most rewarding about exhibiting your work internationally?

It offers the opportunity to reach new audiences and to engage in entirely new dialogues and responses.

Diversity and inclusion are crucial in the art world and the realm of cultural production, as we strive to represent the many facets of the worlds we inhabit. Finally, for our community members eager to follow in your footsteps, what opportunitiesshould they seek out to grow and make their mark in the art world?

Engage with yourself and the world around you. As an artist, there is always something unique that you can share with others. Answer the call you hear and don’t hesitate to showcase your work when asked.

Eva Chenyao He

Chenyao He (Eva), born in 2001 in Shenzhen, China, currently studies at The Cooper Union in New York. My discipline includes but is not limited to installations, performance art, moving images, and mixed media My work often relates to the body as an individual form and entity with specific cultural contexts. Individual body, referring to the female body’s complexities, represents anxiety, confusion, and fear associated with femininity and fertility

Individual body reconstruction and repositioning imply a deliberate attempt to change bodily form concerning the conflict of inviting and rejecting the idea of individual agency and autonomy

The imposition of discipline by institutional power and other larger societal and systematic forces over smaller and less powerful individuals will physically and mentally transform bodies and our daily experiences: starting from personal stories and experiences, visually striking works attempt to arouse strong feelings and desire of the audience to reflect the patriarchal social structure Materiality, in my practice, is crucial in delving into bodily awareness and the contradictions in the binary of push and pull, invitations and rejections, and soft and rigid To convey struggle and intense vulnerability, my sculptural strategy includes disproportionate scale, scenic setting, and stage costumes Incorporating an absurdity factor into my practice is a deliberate effort to imbue my work with a playful incongruity. Simultaneously, I aim to engage the viewer in a poetic and contemplative watching experience, encouraging engagement with their surroundings and blurring the boundaries between the artwork and the space

“I have been drawing since I could hold a pen. I think of drawing as pictorial journaling, so my drawings are often based on my own life and emotions. I like to express my moods with my drawings, and dense lines and strokes are my usual style. I am very fond of observing details, so my works also have a lot of details that I have converted from my own observations from life.”

eKnowles

abstraction in my art aware that life is a series xperiences. Our brains try every situation, some mply irrational Experiencing s your world upside down ve and negative ways. It is me chaotic in an already ng things To express communicate through a olour and texture has been tool for me.”
