The Indiscipline of Painting
Daniel Sturgis at Tate St Ives

Tableau: Painting Photo Object
A Conference at Tate Modern

Friday 28 October 2011, 10.30–17.30Saturday 29 October 2011, 10.30–17.30
Why do so many contemporary artists, working across all media (paintings, photographs, objects, installations, live art), build on pictorial traditions of image construction to set the scene for new narratives? Variously described as tableau, dispositif and apparatus, these related conditions have been analysed by some of the most incisive thinkers on contemporary art and form the subject of this symposium.

The word tableau does not seamlessly translate into painting as witnessed in its central use in Michael Fried’s Why Photography Matters as Art as Never Before 2008. It has come to stand for a series of discourses that address questions of artistic practice, the status of the art object and questions of spectatorship.

The centrality of tableau to recent discussions about photographic artistic practice is preceded by its presence in France in discussion around an expanded field in painting. Jean-François Chevrier has alluded to the return of tableau as a term and its possible implications in The Adventures of the Picture Form in the History of Photography......Find out more on the Tableau Project blog.

Keynote presentations by Philip Armstrong, Fulvia Carnevale, Jean-François Chevrier, Michael Fried, Michael Newman and research papers by Moyra Derby, Adi Efal, Françis Gaube, Atsuhide Ito, Cédric Loire and Andrea Medjesi Jones.
In collaboration with Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London with additional support from the Institut Français, London

"Provisional paintings are those that might appear unfinished or incomplete; that court intentional awkwardness, physical
fragility and instability; that reject the display of conventional skills; that discover beauty in the most unassuming materials; that sometimes grapple with painting’s ‘impossibility’."
Richard Aldrich, Cheryl Donegan, Angiola Gatti, Jacqueline Humphries, Sergej Jensen, Raoul De Keyser, Michael Krebber, Albert Oehlen, Julian Schnabel, Peter Soriano, Richard Tuttle
