!!1977 — It's Not The Bullet That Kills You (It's The Hole) (To Chris Burden) ---- — — ''2 parts of the series of songs available to be played on discs (45 rpm single) via the jukebox machine at the Holly Solomon Gallery in New York for the Jukebox exhibition. {br}— — These two songs were released on [7"inch single|https://www.discogs.com/fr/Laurie-Anderson-Its-Not-The-Bullet-That-Kills-You-Its-The-Hole/release/2314478] by the Holly Solomon Gallery — ^[see above, [JukeBox installation paragraph|AUDIAanderson5#1977_____Jukebox]^] — Ref : Holly Solomon Gallery / 004 {br}— '__Side A__' : It's Not The Bullet That Kills You (It's The Hole) / '__Side B__' : Break It'' ---- {br}{br} |t [../files/articles/anderson/1977_burdenshoot_400.jpg|../files/articles/anderson/1977_burdenshoot.jpg]{br}{small}(Chris Burden, Shoot, 1971){br}---- “Shoot” (1971) consisted of the 25-year-old Burden being shot in the arm at close range by a friend wielding a rifle. A few inches off, and Burden would have probably died. Instead, as we see in the original piece below, he walks off very quickly, more in shock than pain. His intention was to be grazed by the bullet. It went a little deeper. ---- — — ^[[Watch a video with Chris Burden (New York Times)|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drZIWs3Dl1k]^]{br}— — ^[[Video of the Chris Burden's performance - Shoot (1971) - Nov. 19, 1971|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67NSZ8PkR58]^] ---- {/small}|t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t ''Laurie Anderson, ''It's Not The Bullet That Kills You (It's The Hole) (To Chris Burden)'', 1977, (3:49){br}- Drums, Joe Kos - Guitar, Bass, Scott Johnson - Harmonica, Ken Deifik - Voice, Violin, Laurie Anderson{br}From the lp [Airwaves, One Ten Records 001/2, 1977|https://www.discogs.com/fr/Various-Airwaves/release/789843]{br}{br}---- — — Before Laurie Anderson had a record contract, she released this - her first single ^[see above, [JukeBox installation paragraph|AUDIAanderson5#1977_____Jukebox]^], apparently sponsored by the Holly Solomon Gallery for an installation (a jukebox containing this and a number of other songs including ''New York Social Life''). The song was dedicated to Chris Burden.{br}In 1977 Anderson released her first single, ''It's Not The Bullet That Kills You (It's The Hole)'' b/w ''Break It,'' in a limited run of less than 100, each packaged in an individually designed sleeve handmade by Anderson. Both songs had been featured in ''Jukebox'', an exhibit at the Holly Solomon Gallery in New York. Anderson recorded the songs both at her home studio and ZBS Media, a studio in Fort Edward upstate New York, where she was artist-in-residence.{br}{br} — — The piece is a lightly chiding song, in reggae style, dedicated to the conceptual artist Chris Burden, whose performance of his own work which required a bullet to be shot into his arm exemplified an extreme posture (approaching a John Wayne-ish caricature) of the macho male artist of the present decade.{br} If the song recalls the music of Kate & Anna McGarrigle, whose debut LP also came out in 1976, it might be the influence of Anderson’s friend and collaborator Roma Baran, who had just moved to New York from Montreal, where she used to play coffeehouses with the McGarrigles.''{br}{br}| |t ---- {small}La performance intitulée "Shoot" s’est tenue le 19 novembre 1971 au F Space de Santa Ana en Californie. Le court texte, très factuel, rendant compte de la performance s’énonce ainsi « À 19 heures 45, un ami m’a tiré dans le bras gauche avec une balle de 22 long rifle. Il se tenait à cinq mètres de moi. ». Seules deux images rendent compte de "Shoot". Sur la première, Chris Burden et son assistant se font face au moment où ce dernier s’apprête à tirer avec sa carabine ; sur la seconde, on voit le bras mutilé de l’artiste. Il existe également une brève vidéo relatant cette performance. Optant pour un montage peu spectaculaire, elle est composée de 3 plans : un générique précisant le contexte de la performance (date, lieu, nom de l’artiste), un écran noir de quelques secondes où l’on entend les bruits de la galerie F Space, puis un dernier plan tout aussi bref du tir de carabine. — ^[[Source|https://osskoor.com/2012/10/02/art-corporel-et-externalisation-des-risques-du-liberalisme-moral-a-lultraliberalisme-managerial-dans-lart-contemporain-chris-burdensantiago-sierra/]^] ---- {/small}|t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t ---- Lorsqu’en 1977, le 45 tours de Laurie Anderson sort chez Holly Solomon ^[voir ci-dessus, [le paragraphe sur l'installation JukeBox|AUDIAanderson5#1977_____Jukebox]^], c’est une galette vinyle, audible sur n’importe quel Teppaz, extraite de ''Juke Box'', installation audiovisuelle exposée dans la même galerie. L’artiste a composé 24 (vraies) chansons, la plupart écrites entre 1976 et 1977 pour des amis, qu’elle accompagne aux murs avec 24 notices et 24 partitions.{br}{br}La face A est dédiée à Chris Burden et s’intitule « c’est pas la balle qui te tue, c’est le trou ». L’œuvre est tout autant art qu’elle est chansonnette. Laurie Anderson a choisi dans l’extraordinaire profusion de la scène artistique la toute petite conjonction de coordination : et, oeuvre et musique, et installation, et scène, et art, et etc. A chaque forme correspond une diffusion particulière : du bac du disquaire à la salle d’expo, du musée à la scène, de la galerie à la page. Chaque forme juxtapose différents espaces émotionnels et correspond à des temporalités, à des qualités sensibles d’espaces et d’images matérielles et spirituelles, éminemment distinctes. En ce sens Laurie dépasse le vieil antagonisme qui oppose le générique et son contraire le spécifique. Elle contourne les 2 termes par une opération de bascule étonnamment simple : le récit.{br}C’est en effet du « récit » qu’elle extirpe les catégories, esthétiques autant qu’idéologiques, et les traverse sans les nier mais sans les suivre non plus, indifférente à la théorie (trop désincarnée) ainsi qu’aux phénomènes de fusion (mashed potatoes). Conteuse, scénariste ou romancière (« All my families are storyteller » dit-elle) c’est du mot qu’elle tire toutes les ressources de l’expression pour arracher à l’étrange ce qu’il offre de plus résistant pour l’intégrer à une autre forme et lui donner une autre plasticité. — {small}(Thierry Raspail - Source : http://archive.grame.fr/Biennale/MES2002/laurie.html ){/small}| {br}{br} |t |t |t |t ---- {small}{cap}It's not the bullet that kills you, it's the hole{br}(A Reggae tune for Chris Burden){br}{br}I used to use myself as a target{br}I used myself as a goal{br}I was digging myself so much,{br}I was digging me so much{br}I dug myself right into a hole{br}{br}Now, in a hole it's so dark{br}You can't see a thing{br}It's easy to loose sight of your goals{br}It's not the bullet, not the bullet that kills you{br}It's the hole, it's the hole, it's the hole...{br}{br}It's not the bullet it's the hole{br}{br}Like a ventriloquist I can throw ^[in ?^] my voice{br}Long distance is the story of my life{br}In the words of the artist Joseph Boyce,{br}"If you get cut, you better bandage the knife"{br}{br}Cause, in a hole it's so dark{br}You can't see a thing{br}It's easy to loose sight of your goals{br}It's not the bullet, not the bullet that kills, you know{br}It's the hole, it's the hole, it's the hole...{br}{br}Like a hole, like a black hole in space{br}You disappeared and there's nothing to take your place{br}Now I'm sweating, I'm freezin, in this Jamaican sea breeze,{br}I remember you in my knees{br}{br}I really feel like fallin'{br}{br}It's not gravity that's getting me down{br}It's giving me those down and out lowdown blues{br}It's not the rain that's getting me wet,{br}It's the holes, the holes in my shoes !{br}{br}It's not the bullet, It's the hole{br}{br}Cause, in a hole it's so dark{br}You can't see a thing{br}It's easy to loose sight of your goals{br}It's not the bullet, not the bullet that kills, you know{br}It's the hole, it's the hole, it's the hole...{br}{br}It's not the bullet...{br}It's the hole…{/cap}{/small}{br}{br}{small}^[[Source|http://www.jimdavies.org/laurie-anderson/lyrics/itsnotthebullet.txt]^]{/small} ---- |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t |t [../files/articles/anderson/1977_burden1_300.jpg|../files/articles/anderson/1977_burden1.jpg]{br}{br} [../files/articles/anderson/1977_burden2_300.jpg|../files/articles/anderson/1977_burden2.jpg]|t |t |t |t |t [../files/articles/anderson/1977_burden3_400.jpg|../files/articles/anderson/1977_burden3.jpg]| {html} <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-zA6LL78KYU?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> {/html} ---- {br}{br} {br}{br}
