Defastenism is a Remodernist art movement founded in Dublin in 2004. The Defastenists are also known as The Defastenist Party. Artists who have participated in it include Gary Farrelly, Padraic E. Moore, Alexander Reilly, Liam Ryan, Sophie Iremonger and Nessa Darcy. ==Origins== Defastenism was founded in May 2004 by undergraduates at the Dublin National College of Art and Design, Gary Farrelly, ,〔Clarke, Victoria Mary. ("Why I never became an artist" ), ''Irish Independent'', 11 September 2005. Retrieved 14 January 2008.〕 Ben Mullen, Alexander Reilly and Seanan Kerr.〔Sherwin, Brian. ("Art Space Talk: Padraic Moore" ), myartspace.com, 31 October 2006. Retrieved 14 January 2008.〕 Moore, Farrelly and Reilly co-wrote a Defastenist manifesto.〔 The membership consists of artists, musicians, architects, writers, film makers and designers.〔 The Defastenists are a self-declared Remodernist art movement. "Defastenism" is a term coined by the group. Moore described the use of the word: :The term comes specifically from the idea of unbuckling the metaphorical seatbelt. The concept that one must "Defasten" from the Jetzeit.The aeroplane—a constant motif in Defastenist art—is one of the symbols, which we believe defines our zeitgeist.〔 The Defastenists believe contemporary culture has become afflicted by "cultural paralysis", and endeavour to construct a revolution of "vigour and vitality". They have a strongly theatrical, propagandistic and rhetorical self-promotional style (reminiscent of early 20th Century movements such as Dada), including appointing themselves to ministerial posts of the imaginary "Kunstrepublic". This ideological DKR nation was according to Padraic Moore, "definitely a symptom of not being able to deal with the city that we’re living in."〔White, Trevor; Reddy, Nicola; Roche, Katie; Freyne, Patrick. ("Mavericks: Padraic Moore" ), ''The Dubliner'', 14 September 2007. Retrieved 14 January 2008.〕 Their expression of an inner world has some parallels with Surrealism, as does their fixation with obsolescence and the uncanny. As of 2007,with the resignation of Alexander Reilly the remaining group's most prominent members are Liam Ryan(London), Padraic E. Moore (Dublin), Gary Farrelly (based in Paris), David Turpin (Dublin), Donna Marie O'Donovan (Dublin) and Christoph Kronke (Berlin). 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「Defastenism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
