Synopsis
Quitting Your Day Job: Photographic Work de Chauncey Hare est la première biographie critique du photographe américain Chauncey Hare (1934-2019). Bien que Hare ait connu un succès professionnel significatif, quoique éphémère, avec notamment une exposition personnelle au Museum of Modern Art en 1977, une monographie Aperture et trois bourses Guggenheim, son travail n'a pas reçu l'attention critique qu'il mérite et sa vie extraordinaire. l'histoire reste obscure. Ce manque de reconnaissance a beaucoup à voir avec l'aversion fanatique de Hare pour les royaumes commerciaux du monde de l'art, même au plus fort de son succès professionnel. Peut-être sa déclaration de désaveu esthétique la plus ouverte a-t-elle été sa décision finale de renoncer à son identité d'artiste en 1985 et de poursuivre une carrière de thérapeute clinique spécialisé dans «l'abus au travail». Hare ferait ensuite don de l'ensemble de ses archives à la bibliothèque Bancroft de l'Université de Californie avec la disposition selon laquelle toute reproduction de son travail doit inclure une légende indiquant que la photographie a été créée «pour protester et mettre en garde contre la domination croissante des travailleurs par les multinationales. »Quitting Your Day Job considère la relation vexée entre l'art et la politique qui a défini la carrière de Hare, en s'appuyant sur des documents d'archives largement non examinés, de nouvelles interviews et en analysant les photographies brillantes et émouvantes de Hare aux côtés du prolixe et souvent des préfaces bathétiques qu'il a écrites pour les trois collections de ses photographies. Le livre présente un vaste compte rendu critique de la vie et de l'art de Hare, suggérant la manière dont son travail continue de résonner avec les préoccupations contemporaines concernant la portée des entreprises dans la vie quotidienne, la complicité de longue date de la photographie documentaire avec la politique de la culpabilité libérale et l'art. relation vexée avec les canaux élitistes du pouvoir. Robert Slifkin est professeur agrégé des beaux-arts à l'Institut des beaux-arts de l'Université de New York. Il est l'auteur de The New Monuments and the End of Man: US Sculpture Between War and Peace, 1945-1975 (Princeton University Press, 2019) et Out of Time: Philip Guston and the Refiguration of Postwar American Art (University of California Press , 2013) qui a reçu le prix du livre Philips. Ses essais et ses critiques ont été publiés dans des revues telles que American Art, Artforum, Art Bulletin, Art Journal, Burlington Magazine, October, Oxford Art Journal et Racquet.

Paperback. Condition: New. Quitting Your Day Job: Chauncey Hare's Photographic Work is the first critical biography of the American photographer Chauncey Hare (1934-2019). Although Hare received a significant, if fleeting, degree of professional success, including a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in 1977, an Aperture monograph, and three Guggenheim fellowships, his work has not received the critical attention it deserves and his extraordinary life story remains obscure. This lack of recognition has much to do with Hare's fanatical aversion to the commercial realms of the art world even at the height of his professional success. Perhaps his most overt declaration of aesthetic disavowal was his ultimate decision to renounce his identity as an artist in 1985 and pursue a career as a clinical therapist specializing in "work abuse" (which is also the title of a book he co-authored on the subject in 1997). Hare would subsequently donate his entire archive to the Bancroft Library at the University of California-notably not the Berkeley Museum of Art-with the provision that the original prints cannot be exhibited and that any reproduction of his work must include a caption that states that the photograph was created "to protest and warn against the growing domination of working people by multinational corporations and their elite owners and managers."Quitting Your Day Job considers the vexed relation between art and politics that defined Hare's career, drawing upon largely unexamined archival materials, new interviews and analyzing Hare's brilliant and moving photographs alongside the prolix and oftentimes bathetic prefaces he wrote for the three collections of his photographs. The book presents a wide-ranging critical account of Hare's life and art, suggesting the ways in which his work continues to resonate with contemporary concerns about the reach of corporations into everyday life, documentary photography's longstanding complicity with the politics of liberal guilt, and art's vexed relation to elite channels of power.
