Maria Lalou

	Maria Lalou Maria Lalou (born in 1977) is a Greek contemporary conceptual artist, experimental filmmaker, architectural researcher, critical thinker and scholar. She explores the topic of viewing, incorporating cinematic apparatus and surveillance as part of her tools, with central references to the politics of the viewer. Her works negotiate about the notion of 'viewing' as a civic negotiation, by the means of a performative act, an active presence, an empirical duration, a filmic artefact and a political statement. Her artworks are on the edge of social experiments and practised rhetorics by staging art installations on the steps of theory of the spectacle. She includes the viewer's perspective in the completion of the works' significance, dividing her audiences into a specific audience as the chosen viewers participating in her works and a casual audience as the invited public to experience the works, results she has directed with the contribution of significant others.

Retrieved 20 April 2022. From 1939 to 1960, education was strongly influenced by the functionalist and socially critical ideas of De Stijl and the Bauhaus, partly due to the role of the socialist architect Mart Stam as director of education. In 1966, the Rietveld Building designed by Gerrit Rietveld was completed. That year, the school was renamed to Gerrit Rietveld Academie, as a tribute to Gerrit Rietveld, who had died in 1964.

	Conceptual Artists Conceptual art, also referred to as conceptualism, is art in which the concept(s) or idea(s) involved in the work take precedence over traditional aesthetic, technical, and material concerns. Some works of conceptual art, sometimes called installations, may be constructed by anyone simply by following a set of written instructions. This method was fundamental to American artist Sol LeWitt's definition of conceptual art, one of the first to appear in print: Tony Godfrey, author of ''Conceptual Art (Art & Ideas)'' (1998), asserts that conceptual art questions the nature of art, a notion that Joseph Kosuth elevated to a definition of art itself in his seminal, early manifesto of conceptual art, ''Art after Philosophy'' (1969). The notion that art should examine its own nature was already a potent aspect of the influential art critic Clement Greenberg's vision of Modern art during the 1950s. With the emergence of an exclusively language-based art in the 1960s, however, conceptual a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
