Annette Barbier (1950, Chicago, IL USA ) 〔http://www.vdb.org/artists/annette-barbier Video Data Bank〕 is a Chicago-based media artist, who has been working with video art, net art, installation art, interactive performance, and emerging and experimental technologies since the 1970s.〔https://www.evl.uic.edu/entry.php?id=606 UIC EVL〕〔https://www.questia.com/library/journal/1G1-157037570/there-s-no-place-like-home-the-paradox-of-embodiment〕〔http://www.renaissancesociety.org/exhibitions/artist/2402/annette-barbier Renaissance Society〕〔http://www.renaissancesociety.org/events/204/video-screening-program-2 Renaissance Society〕 Themes in her work address, "issues of home, defined locally as domesticity and more broadly as the ways in which we relate to our environment." 〔http://annette-barbier.squarespace.com/statement-and-bio/ Barbier statement〕 An early work, "Home Invasion ()," incorporating critical dialogue and audio is accessible on Leonardo. "Domestic space---formerly inviolable---is increasingly disrupted by electronic communication of all sorts, including radio, TV, email and the telephone." 〔http://www.leonardo.info/gallery/gallery294/barbier.html〕 Driven by life experiences Barbier's perspective on home evolved over the years. At one point Barbier dropped out of college to spend a year in France, which was formative in making issues of home, culture and identity central to her work. Years later, a Fulbright lectureship in India with her 3-year-old daughter confirmed the importance of travel in questioning one's conceptions about the world.〔http://www.leoalmanac.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/gallery-LEA-Multimedia-Performances-Gallery-Curatorial-Statement.pdf Leonardo Almanac〕 Barbier once lived outside the city with her family on the edge of a Cook County forest preserve. This close connection to the natural environment, frequently spotting coyote, hawks, waterfowl, songbirds, and deer made a lasting impression.〔http://www.imagerymotion.com/en/iArtists/annette-barbier Barbier〕 Over time her focus has moved from an emphasis on the personal to a consideration of the global, looking at ways in which the home has come to be defined more broadly as populations shift, and as our interdependence becomes increasingly clear.〔http://www.leoalmanac.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/gallery-LEA-Multimedia-Performances-Gallery-Curatorial-Statement.pdf Leonardo Almanac〕〔http://elmcip.net/person/annette-barbier ELP Barbier〕 Currently Barbier re-investigates the ways in which embodiment can facilitate the expression of an idea calling into question our relationship to the natural world using technology as a metaphor for loss. Loss of material through the destructive process of laser engraving, which removes material through burning, as compared to loss of habitat, loss of entire species, and loss of diversity in our native plants and animals 〔http://www.chicagoartistscoalition.org/programs/bolt-residency/2013-2014/annette-barbier〕 Barbier's current artwork addressing ideas of home and place, in contrast to natural worlds and systems "poetically makes visible a small intersection in civilization that is incredibly complex, and broken" 〔http://furtherfield.org/features/reviews/broken-annette-barbiers-casualties〕 and emphasizes "vision as metaphor." 〔http://womanmade.org/annette-barbier/〕 ==Professional Experience== *Professor (ret.), Interdisciplinary Arts, Columbia College Chicago, 2012 – July 2015 *Chair, Department of Interactive Arts and Media, Columbia College Chicago, August 2005 – July 2012 *Director, Center for Art and Technology, Northwestern University, September 1997 – June 2005 *Assistant, Associate Professor, Northwestern University, Department of Radio/TV/Film, September 1982 – July 2005 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Annette Barbier」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
