Reception and art historical classification
[edit]Rist built on the approaches of Nam June Paik, whose 1963 exhibition Exposition of Music - Electronic Television was the starting point for video art. Paik understood images, television quotes, music and sound, technical interference and viewer participation as art elements and used them in his work.
Sutton sees Rist's site-specific installations such as Stadtlounge or Hand Me Your Trust in the tradition of medieval churches, dioramas from the seventeenth century, panoramas from the eighteenth century and planetariums from the twentieth. In addition, there were Fluxus events, which also offered the audience the opportunity to feel part of the artwork. Sutton also sees connections to filmmaker Stan VanDerBeek's theories on Expanded Cinema.
While, according to Sutton, a misogynistic tendency was noticeable in the actions of artists such as Nitsch, Muehl or Brus from the early and mid-1960s, Rist's videos gave a lot of space to female protagonists. Scenes with naked bodies distracted from the technical precision of the image and sound level. Rist's visual language deliberately broke with taboos that intimidated people, using menstrual blood (Blutclip, 1993) and semen, for example.
The presentation of female bodies and the treatment of topics such as menstruation have led to Rist often being described as a feminist.[99] The artist herself said: "I am a feminist, that is a matter of honour and logical, as long as the horizons are not equally broad for everyone."[100]
"For me, being a feminist means being aware that we women have a completely different history to men. It means that in my life - in my art - I strive for a more autonomous identity that is less defined by the opposite sex, but I am not a fan of the whiny feminist tone."
- Pipilotti Rist
This is to be distinguished from the description of Rist's art as feminist. Some critics have also used the depiction of female bodies and menstrual blood as arguments for this, as well as the fact that video is an art form favoured by women. Details such as handbags or make-up bags are repeatedly subjects of the artworks (for example in the installation Schminktischlein mit Feedback (1993)) in artistic deformation. According to Kampmann, these details lead to a superficial conclusion to see the artist in a feminist context. Particularly Ever Is Over All is repeatedly read as a feminist piece of art. However, other voices argue that a reception of Rist's art is "too one-dimensional and captious against the background of feminist ideas".
The artist herself explicitly rejects the labelling of her art as feminist. In her eyes, there is no such thing as feminist art: when she films a female body, she is very often concerned with the human body itself. In the Frankfurter Rundschau, Rist warned against exaggerating feminism too much. If you constantly stand up for your own rights, it can lead to egoism. Rist emphasizes that video is not a neutral technology. This is why feminism is not only expressed in her work by focusing on the female body. Rather, she reveals that this technology is usually strongly geared towards reproducing the characteristics of gender and race, and is therefore embedded in society. For example, there are built-in filters that change the skin colour so that the skin looks healthy. This relates to white skin, which led Rist to say that there would be different standards if video technology had developed in Africa first.
As a pioneer in the use of her media, especially video and film, the artist has found her own unmistakable expression.
