The first works of this series are white paintings portraying men with the proportions of documental photographs. The paintings are ghosts, remains of images. In 1998, during a working period in Paris, I made misty landscapes paintings appropriating the grey and beige colours typical of the city as well as the diagonal incidence of the sun light common there and directly opposed to the white vertical light of the tropics (Sao Paulo) and covered them with fog through veils of paint. The photographs of the paintings were considered bad by the technicians from the laboratory because the images were not clear enough (this being related to the painting itself but ignored by the technicians). I became interested in how photography can deceive and what bad photography is. Starting a research on friends and family archives, I selected antique photographs and grouped them, following alterations of colours or of the image itself (for example, interference of fungus). From some of these antique 6x6 slides, I continued the monochrome series, using images of mothers with babies, that through a peculiarity of the old film or an alteration due to time, had become totally red. The images on the paintings continue to appear as red ghosts, in a red environment, involved by a red mist. I also transfered them on different surfaces like glass, parchement or leather, through transfer (photocopies) or prints and rephotographed them, printing them as cibachromes. In 1999, during a working period at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam I explored the image made un-clear, with no definition or considered wrong or damaged through painting, printing and photography. I painted the images from old slides on red canvas and after covering them with greenish veils of paint, scratched them until the red showed through. The name of the series is «who’s afraid of red?» hommaging Barnett Newman’s work «who’s afraid of red, yellow and blue?» and whose painting was badly damaged by a maniac at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. I also did a series of silkscreens, «Infected images», using images from musty slides. I stressed the damage on the surface, creating a relief through etching similar to pimples or warts on human skin. Rephotographing the slides on a white canvas with someone under or over it, I intended to propose an ambiguous surface to the images. The person appears ghostly on the scene, altering the proportions and straight lines of the photographic perspective. I am planning to make light boxes with transparent film only on the infected spots. Related to a current master course at the University of Sao Paulo, I am developping a different project. It consists in creating a documentation of the work of a fictitious artist who would have lived in Brazil during the dictatorship years (late sixties, early seventies). His name is Marcelo do Campo and his work consists of performances and ephemeral installations having sex and vilence as the main theme. I have started documenting two of his supposed performances through video and photography. As various artists involved in politics fled Brazil during these years (Lygia Clark, Helio Oiticica, Antonio Dias…) some of Marcelo’s work could be developped in Europe. I would like to stress my difficulty in establishing a well prepared and concrete working plan as I am doing various researches and would like to let the influences of a different environment act on them.

I would like also to stress my difficulty to establish a well prepared and concrete work plan as I am also doing various researches with monoprints through cut supports (paper, parchement, leather), videos and small embroideries and objects. I would like not only to take something in progress from Brazil but also to let the different environment I will be submitted to change my work. I have had a period of great reflection upon my work and now I am starting to do something that may arrive somewhere. I know that ECAV has a wonderful orientation and, that, above all, is what appeals to me the most-: to stimulate the reflection upon the artistic doing. CRIC – Ecole Cantonale d’Art du Valais rue Bonne-Eau 16 – CH-3960 Sierre – T-: +41 27 456 55 11 – F-: +41 27 456 55 30 – E-: [email protected] – [email protected] – http://www.ecav.ch 8 > artists in residence centre de réflexion sur l’image et ses contextes > Dora Longo Bahia 17/01---04/03/2001 Projet et workshop « Quand les attitudes déforment les altitudes » Le workshop animé par l’artiste avait pour objectif de questionner le statut de l’oeuvre de l’art et la véracité de la documentation artistique par le biais d’une enquête sur la tradition artistique suisse. Depuis la moitié des années soixante, des changements fondamentaux se sont produits dans les comportements humains. Différents mouvements parmi lesquels on peut mentionner les mouvements estudiantin, féministe, socialiste et pacifique ont altéré la manière de percevoir et d’interpréter le monde. La dénommée « nouvelle avant-garde » des années soixante et septante a réactualisé des moyens artistiques alternatifs propres aux avant-gardes des années vingt performance, techniques d’impression, collage - afin de mettre en question des principes établis relatifs à l’art et à la vie. Le travail proposé consistait à mener en groupe une enquête sur des questions toujours pertinentes mises en exergue lors de cette période d’intenses transformations conceptuelles, sociales et politiques - 1965-1975 -. Il s’agissait concrètement de produire une documentation fictionnelle sur un événement situé dans une période déterminée en passant par les étapes suivantes : - recherche conceptuelle, iconographique et esthétique sur les années 1965-1975; - documentation vidéophonique et photographique sur un événement - « happening » - qui se déroulerait à Sierre; - développement et montage des images sur la base d’une révision des modèles esthétiques de l’époque; - exposition publique du travail. L’artiste présente ainsi sa démarche : « Le film « Quand les attitudes déforment les altitudes » estle produit d’une action collective qui a été réalisée par les artistes du groupe « FOEHN » entre le 22 mars et le 27 avril 1969. L’action collective « Quand les attitudes déforment les altitudes »s’est produite parallèlement à l’exposition « Quand les attitudes deviennent forme » organisée par Harald Szeeman à la Kunsthalle de Berne en 1969. Durant toute la période de l’exposition (22 mars au 27 avril 1969), Poisson Urbain, Migrolina Rose, Robert Camile Udriot, Marcelo do Campo, Noé Solog, Carlton W.R.S., Curupira, Klara Gama, Zoé Call et les intégrantes de l’Exaspérante Production ont résidé dans un bunker de carton qu’ils avaient eux-mêmes construit. Les jeunes artistes voulaient manifester sur le mode ironique contre la conservation de valeurs obsolètes liées à l’art et/ou à la vie, en révélant la fragilité des soi-disant protections et le danger de l’isolement volontaire. MANIFESTO Pourquoi foehner? Parce que le contexte est fondamental pour la compréhension de l’oeuvre d’art. Parce que la spécificité du temps et de l’espace sont des éléments constitutifs de la formalisation de l’oeuvre d’art. Parce que le rapport entre temps - espace - oeuvre - spectateur est l’essence même de l’oeuvre d’art. Parce que le temps et l’espace sont des abstractions relatives. Parce que l’oeuvre d’art n’existe qu’en tant que tel. Parce que le présent sans présentation est illisible et invisible. Parce que toute représentation est impossible. Parce que l’oeuvre d’art doit être originelle. Parce que l’artiste est à l’origine de l’oeuvre d’art. Parce que l’oeuvre d’art n’existe pas. Parce que l’artiste n’existe pas non plus et que ce fait est irréversible. » Dora Longo Bahia Les différentes vidéos réalisées lors du workshop ont été présentées au Forum d’Art Contemporain de Sierre (FAC) le 9 mars 2001.
