We looked at her work extensively today in seminar, but to recap and for further looking and reading, here’s a list of online materials. (Don’t forget there are quite a few catalogues in the KHM library; we also have a rare 1992 interview on VHS.)<\/p>\n
The show at the Ludwig<\/a> opens this Saturday. Also, on\u00a0Friday 21. June, 2013, at 19h, there is a we’ll see the Europe-premiere of her new\u00a0performance : \u201cMen on the Line\u201d (Museum Ludwig cinema.) Recommended!<\/p>\n 2001 Little Frank and His Carp <\/a>(Video, 6 minutes, on ubu.com)<\/p>\n 2003 “Official Welcome (Hamburger Kunstverein)”<\/a> (Video, 30 minutes, on ubu.com) “It is my body, in this underwear. And then I take the underwear off and I\u2019m nude; I joke that, yes, I finally joined the grand old tradition of nudie performance art. And my other joke is that I\u2019m not really nude because I\u2019m in quotation marks. But, of course, I am.<\/p>\n Part of the reason I decided to do that was precisely to close that gap, to collapse the distance between myself as the artist named Andrea Fraser and these other positions that I was performing. And to make that distancing more difficult and problematic.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n In the 2nd part of the interview<\/a> she talks about later works and writings, including \u201cMen on the Line\u201d, later to be shown here in Cologne\u00a0(you can download the interview as a podcast here<\/a>):<\/p>\n 2011 \u00a0Texte zur Kunst,\u00a0“Speaking of the Social World”<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0“\u00dcber die soziale Welt sprechen”<\/a>\u00a0(German translation)<\/p>\n
