John Giorno, bekannt als Künstler und Performance Dichter, ist eine Schlüsselfigur der New Yorker Beat Generation. Im Jahr 1965 gründete er Giorno Poetry Systems, ein Label und Künstler Network, welches sich auf den Einsatz neuer Technologien in Musik und Poetry Performances fokussierte. Einer der bekanntesten Aktionen war Dial-A-Poem, bei denen täglich wechselnde Gedichte auf Anrufbeantwortern Tag und Nacht abgefragt werden konnten. Dial-A-Poem wurde 1970 im New York Museum of Modern Art uraufgeführt. Unter den vielen Stimmen zählten seine engen Freunde wie William Burroughs, Laurie Anderson, Keith Haring, John Ashbery, Ted Berrigan, Patti Smith, Laurie Anderson, Philip Glass, Robert Rauschenberg und Robert Mapplethorpe.
Durch den Einfluss von Andy Warhol (Giorno war der Protagonist in Warhols Film Sleep), Robert Rauschenberg und Jasper Johns, begann Giorno seine Poem Prints und Poem Paintings im Jahr 1967 zu kreieren. Mit diesen Textfragmenten schaffte er einen geistigen Dialog zwischen Worten, die geschrieben werden, Worten, die zu hören sind, und Worten, die zu Objekten werden. 'In dein Herz kommen', 'Den Himmel essen', 'Ich möchte das es für den Rest meines Lebens regnet' sind Beispiele der Segmente, die direkt von den Gründervätern der Beat Generation inspiriert worden sind: Burroughs, Ginsberg, Gysin, mit Giorno als letzter Vertreter der NY Beat Generation der Sechziger.
Giorno ist ein Tibetischer Buddhist und praktiziert Meditation. Fast nichts scheint ihn in seinem Streben nach Klang, Rhythmus und dem absoluten Bild im Wege zu stehen.
Seine Textbilder, Drucke, Zeichnungen und Aquarelle wurden an vielen Orten der Welt ausgestellt z.B. Modern Modern, Chelsea Art Museum, New York, NY, Traces du Sacre, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, Frankreich und Musée d'art moderne et contemporain, Genf, Schweiz). John Giorno ist in zahlreichen Museums-sammlungen vertreten (Museum of Modern Art, New York, und dem Centre Pompidou, Musée National d'Art Moderne, Paris.

IT'S NOT WHAT HAPPENS IT'S HOW YOU HANDLE IT, 2013
water colour on paper, old holland magenta, 23,2 x 23,2 cm
Being influenced by the close relationship with Andy Warhol (Giorno was the protagonist of Andy Warhol's Sleep), Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns, Giorno began to create his poem prints and poem paintings in 1967, setting up mental dialogues between words that are written, words that are heard and words that turn into objects to se e. 'I want to cum in your heart', 'Eating the sky', 'I want it to rain for the rest of my life' are segments, which are directly inspired by the founding fathers of the Beat Generation: Burroughs, Ginsberg, Gysin, of whom Giorno is the last ambassador .
These text paintings, prints, drawings and watercolors have been exhibited around the globe in important museum exhibitions (i.e. Modern Modern, Chelsea Art Museum, New York, NY, Traces du Sacre, Georges Pompidou Center, Paris; and Musée d´art moderne et contemporain, Geneva, Switzerland), and have been ac-quired for numerous museum collections (Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the Centre Pompidou, Musée National d'Art Moderne, Paris.) Giorno is a Tibetan Buddhist and practices meditation avidly and almost nothing seems to stop him in his pursuit of sound, rhythm and the absolute image. |
