“In The Neutronics Greatest Hits, Marroquin takes on the genre of the music video as the carrier of his underlying critique of mass media. Intended as part of the programming for Marroquin’s Amsterdam/New York satellite broadcast called The Link, the work is both a music video and a documentation of a live performance given by the concept band at the Mazzo club in Amsterdam.”

John M Armleder was invited to make an etching for publishing house Edition Franz Mäder Galerie, Basel. In stead of making a dry needle etching on copper plate he asked Mäder to make 25 blank plate prints on etching paper. On each of these Armleder drew unique spirograph drawings. He numbered them as if it concerned an edition.
At a certain point, Armleder used a spirograph by leaving the utensil uncontrolled run over the paper creating a most surprising juggler’s lightness and evocativeness. He once stated that for him in the end every time he has to think about how to make an art piece that is no more than a performance. Here it is, definitively, with it’s etching-like dancing appearance.

‘In her performances, videos, textual works, photographs, and installations, Rosler confronts her audiences with political subjects and the role of the media, analyzing quotidian, domestic, and urban life from a feminist viewpoint not altogether devoid of humor. In her series, “Beauty Knows No Pain,” or “Body Beautiful” (1965-74), she used techniques of collage to create a sense of unease with the ways in which women are portrayed. She has used this technique continuously, as in her well-known series of photomontages, “Bringing the War Home: House Beautiful,” and “Bringing the War Home: In Vietnam” (1967-72). Here, as in her installation “B-52 in Baby’s Tears” (1974), Rosler scrutinizes the role of the mass media in wartime.’ Generali Foundation 1974, Salzburg, Austria.
