LAST CHANCE! SAVE 10% on everything! Code: “NEWDIRECTION” / Revue Faire No. 4 (A communication: invitation cards by the artist Stanley Brouwn) / Available at www.draw-down.com / In the fourth issue of Revue Faire [To Look at Things], Céline Chazalviel writes about the invitation cards of elusive artist #StanleyBrouwn / Born in 1935 in Surinam, Brouwn died in 2017 in Amsterdam after a career centered around performance and #conceptualart that purposely effaced the artist himself. Since 1972, every catalogue or group exhibition Brown participated in featured a text: “At the request of the artist there are no photo or bio-bibliographical data” or “At the artist's request, his birth date is excluded here, and the works are not reproduced“, or some variation. Brouwn refused to give interviews, and portraits were extremely rare. The invitations reveal that #graphic and #typographic choices created one of the spaces of #neutrality built by Brouwn, like other artists and theoreticians of his generation, and generations that came after. According to one of the positions of Sol Lewitt, “conceptual artists are more mystical than rationalist,” and the case of Brouwn gives weight to this idea. Chazalviel traces Brouwn's career, and provides a contemporary lens on this important artist, drawing upon his relationship with Fluxus and Zero, interrogating his artistic remove, and sketching out his relationship with Experimental Jetset's practice.
