rigitte Dunkels jüngst erschienener Katalog "Tablescapes" ist eine gleich doppelt interessante Auseinandersetzung mit einem Thema, das wie kaum ein anderes von Projektionen beherrscht wird: Gender-Identität. Dunkel greift dabei auf ein Konzept aus dem Bereich des Interior Designs zurück. Denn ursprünglich handelt es sich bei "Tablescapes" um eine Home- and Living-Idee für die ein Tisch in eine Art (Themen-)Landschaft verwandelt wird. Es sind stilvolle Arrangements, sorgsam kuratiert, mit dekorativen Eyecatchern, und immer absolut "instagram-able", natürlich. Ein Konzept, das zudem oft feminin konnotiert wird. Doch dahinter steckt weit mehr als nur ein (selbst-)ironischer Fingerzeig. Denn die "Tischlandschaften" dienen Dunkel als Projektionsfläche für einen erweiterten Diskurs über feministische Kunst, bei dem transformative Role Models verhandelt werden. Aber eben nicht nur das. Denn Dunkel gelingt etwas mindestens noch mal so Interessantes: Sie erhebt dadurch nämlich den genderspezifischen Blick selbst zum Gegenstand der Betrachtung. Man fühlt sich dabei unwillkürlich an ein Zitat des Kunstkritikers John Berger erinnert, das Ulrike Rosenbach in einem Interview für diese Arbeitsweise anführte: "[...]Men look at women. Women watch themselves being looked at." Blickt man aus dieser Perspektive auf die vorliegenden Arrangements, so wirken diese betörend schön an der Oberfläche. Es sind hyper-ästhetische Environments von einer Klarheit, die fast schon weh tun. Doch beim genaueren Hinsehen entpuppen sich diese immer wieder neu als doppelbödig, rätselhaft, der vermeintlichen Eindeutigkeit widerstrebend. Der Reiz dieser ästhetisch ausgeklügelten "Tablescapes" liegt am geradezu kaleidoskopartigen Zusammenspiel der Bedeutungsebenen. Das Gesamt-Arrangement für dieses Setting besteht zunächst aus zwei Räumen, dem "Lightroom" und dem "Darkroom", in denen Brigitte Dunkel die "Drag Dolls" thematisch inszeniert. Es handelt sich dabei um drei ganz unterschiedliche Role Models, die auf einen Kunstkontext verweisen (wie das Golden Bug Girl auf Dalis 'Retrospective Bust of a Woman'), einen religiösen Kontext (die 'Shaker', eine von einer Frau gegründeten Freikirche), oder einen Gewaltkontext (den Femizid an der als 'Schwarze Dahlie' bekannt gewordenen Elizabeth Short), denen sie digitale Fotoarbeiten, Kleidungsstücke oder Vexierbilder gegenüberstellt. Und so Frauenbilder reflektiert, die zwischen Anbetung, Selbstbehauptung und Femme fatale oszillieren. "Brigitte Dunkels Arbeiten fordern unser Verständnis für die Variabilität kultureller Muster ebenso heraus wie unser Nachdenken über Identität, Geschichte und Wissen", so die Kunsthistorikerin Olga Moldaver. Und Prof. Dr. Swantje Lichtenstein führt weiter aus: "Die Arbeiten der Künstlerin verbinden weiblich gelesene Elemente des Körpers, der Handarbeit, Mode, Gastlichkeit und des mütterlichen Hervorbringens mit männlich gelesenen Elementen wie installativen, technischen, digitalen Bildern, Soundelementen, Geräten, Maschinen, Formen und Materialien." Dem sorgsam gestalteten Katalog "Tablescapes" gelingt es nicht nur das ausgeklügelte Ausstellungskonzept auf Papier zu übersetzen. Er verlängert es via QR-Codes in den digitalen Raum. Zum Nacherleben und Neuentdecken. So entpuppt sich Brigitte Dunkels "Tablescapes" nicht nur als Dokumentation, sondern als eigenständige transformative Fortsetzung einer Arbeit, die den Raum zwischen Kunst, Körper und den zugrundeliegenden Codes choreografiert hat. Eine beeindruckende Fortsetzung von Dunkels Langzeitprojekt - dem "The Powder Room", ist es in jedem Fall.

Scholarly and Readable, Too
Format: Paperback
I read the first volume in this series (about the Great Depression), and now I'm in the midst of this one. Kennedy's very-lucid prose keeps the reader moving along, and of course, the sweep of the story he's telling is nearly-irresistible. But in lamer hands, the prose might well have bogged down in turgidity--not so in this case!

Good but not as good
Format: Kindle
Freedom From Fear #1 was one of the most interesting and informational books I've ever read. Part Two was interesting but I did not learn much more about the war than I had known before other than the fact that, while Japan lost the war, Anglo-Saxons are no longer in control in the Far East. I somewhat disagree with his ending ideas about the "good" war, that it wasn't so "good" after all in it's outcome. However, those who fought in it and their families would probably disagree.

The Innovator's DNA - Disruptive Research - Disruptive Writing
A Politically Correct Status Quo It is politically correct in management circles to say that you are "results oriented" or that you "drive for results" in your organization. The status quo in business schools is to indoctrinate students in the delivery skills of analyzing, planning, detail-oriented implementing, and disciplined executing. This book and the research upon which it is based disrupts that politically correct status quo. Clayton Christensen has spent close to two decades creating the research, conceptual, and application foundation of the disruptive innovation body of knowledge. He has been working for more than 8 years with Jeff Dyer and Hal Gregersen, both gifted researchers, teachers, and consultants in their own right, on this project. These guys are a disruptive "dream team" of contributors. This book articulates an extension of the disruptive innovation body of knowledge that clearly describes an individual profile of the disruptive innovator and an organizational profile of an organization that makes disruptive innovation happen. So what makes this book disruptive? The first thing is timing. It arrives on the scene at a time when innovation is one of the most critical components of a solution to our global financial and organizational mess. If we are to get out of our morass of debt and sluggish growth and respond to the continually emerging challenges of a burgeoning global society it will ride on the backs and wings of innovation. The status quo must be disrupted for us to survive and thrive! Second is the audacity of the core models. The authors claim that innovation can be learned at both the individual and organizational level. Individuals can increase their ability to discover (Discovery Quotient - DQ) and learn to be more innovative. They cite the four specific behavioral skills of asking questions, engaging in observations, networking with people who have a different point of view, and experimenting to figure out what can work as the common elements of what innovators do. They also identify the cognitive skill of associational thinking, the ability to find connections between ideas that do not seem to be related to each other, as the connection between the behavioral skills and the generation of ideas. They extend their claim that the innovation competency can be learned to the organizational domain by saying that organizations can become more innovative through developing and leading people, designing and implementing processes, and advocating and living by philosophies that support innovation. These two arguments stand in stark contrast to the beliefs and practices of a vast majority of leaders and institutions. (For a diagram of the Model see [...]) 'And all of this is built upon the third source of disruption: research. Their work is based on well-founded research into the "DNA" of the world's leading innovators and the world's most innovative organizations. The authors conducted nearly 100 interviews of world class innovators and their colleagues to get at the heart of what innovators do. They also interviewed and surveyed executives who are not innovators. (Their survey data base has over 5000 respondents in it.) So they have been able to compare and contrast the two populations to more clearly see what it takes to effectively innovate. They have also done research on business results attributable to innovation. Collaborating with HOLT (a division of Credit Suisse) they were able to craft a measurement called the "innovation premium." This measure identifies if an organization's market capitalization can be accounted for by existing cash flows or if there is an innovation influence on the stock price. By using this measure, they have been able to clearly and objectively identify which organizations are benefiting from innovation. Yet to Explore The tension in the balance of influence and power between the leaders with predominantly "Discovery" or "Delivery" mindsets is an area that has yet to be explored. If the premises of this book are sound, and I believe they are, we need to figure out how to manage that tension and balance in order to generate, incubate, and strengthen innovative ideas as we bring them to full fruition in the marketplace. Great ideas that are not delivered upon are simply recreational pursuits that do not build great people, great institutions, and great societies. So there is work yet to do. Invest Your Time and Effort This book makes a significant contribution to both the disruptive innovation body of knowledge and the evolving body of practice on innovating disruptively. It is well worth reading, pondering, and acting upon.
