Résumé:
Odyssée 2.0 est un parcours photographique librement inspiré du mythe d’Homère qui suit les pérégrinations d’Ulysse au sein de la Technopolis, une « Smart City » fictive et dystopique. À travers une série de mises en scène reprenant les étapes-clés de l’Odyssée d’Homère, ce travail aborde les problématiques inhérentes à la prolifération des technologies numériques. Dans un parti pris photographique reposant sur le choix de l’argentique et des trucages low tech, notre anti-héros explore plusieurs facettes de nos vies connectées telles que l’économie de surveillance, la banalisation des drones, la sexualité virtuelle ou encore la police prédictive. Ce projet éditorial conjugue ainsi les formes d’expression et les temporalités pour inviter à une réflexion critique sur la «technologisation» croissante du contrôle social.

Résumé:
Le travail photographique de Juliette Agnel révèle les présences invisibles qui habitent notre monde. Paysages extrêmes du Groenland, profondeurs d’une grotte préhistorique, sites archéologiques du Soudan, deviennent des points de passage dans lesquels se manifestent les puissances telluriques.

Résumé:
Situating El Lissitzky reassesses the complex career of one of the most influential yet controversial experimental artists of the early twentieth century. A prolific painter, designer, architect, and photographer, El Lissitzky (1890-1941) worked with the Soviet and the European artistic avant-gardes in the 1920s and as a propagandist for the Stalinist regime in the following decade. Taking readers into the thick of current debates about Lissitzky's artistic personae, Situating El Lissitzky reconstructs aspects of his elusive identity across different periods, places, and media. Following an introduction in which Nancy Perloff distills and draws together the volume's eight essays, Christina Lodder, Éva Forgács, and Maria Gough offer revisionist accounts of Lissitzky's years as an international constructivist and exhibition designer in Europe. John E. Bowlt then investigates the role of handicraft and the symbol of the hand in Lissitzky's artistic production, and Leah Dickerman and Margarita Tupitsyn elucidate the interplay between physicality and opticality at different stages in Lissitzky's development as a photographer. Finally, T. J. Clark and Peter Nisbet address the disconcerting balance of aesthetic value and political expediency in Lissitzky's overtly Communist art. The result is a kaleidoscopic portrait of Lissitzky as Bolshevik visionary, craftsman, modernist, internationalist, and Soviet propagandist.

Résumé:
Often out of print, this new edition of Joel Sternfeld’s seminal book returns to the format of the original 1987 edition. All of the now classic images within it—alongside a group of never published photographs—examine a once pristine land stewarded by indigenous peoples who needed no lessons in stewardship, and a land now occupied by a mix of peoples hoping for salvation within the fraught paths of late capitalism. The result suggests a vast nation whose prospects have much to do with global prospects, a “teenager of the world” unaware of its strengths, filled with idealism and frequent failings.

Résumé:
''In 1991, I moved to Berlin for four years. The Berlin wall had just fallen but you could still see sections of it, and certainly still feel the divide between the Capitalist and Socialist states. Discovering Central Europe meant learning about some very dark history. The scars of Totalitarianism were deep, visible and raw from both the Cold War and the preceding Second World War. These photographs were taken in Montreal during the Fall and Winter of 2013/14. I wanted to find a common visual ground where, through historical images we've all seen, my memories could be shared. I revisited these memories influenced by the political climate and my fear of a rising wave of militant nationalism and the return of the Police State. This work reflects some of my concerns through the evoking of personal and collective memories and the linking of present with past, and local to global.'' Eric Tschaeppeler

Résumé:
Siri Ekker Svendsen’s ''All the whisperings of the world'' is a photo book examining the visual connections between nature’s vulnerability and the effects of an allergic shock to the body. To accomplish this, the artist takes us on a journey to contemporary rainforest areas in South America. The locus of this process is the Brazil nut. The book weaves macro and micro perspectives with Svendsen’s classic black and white photographs, revealing the human body within a diverse ecosystem of complex interdependency. Images via microscope — body cells that have been destroyed due to allergic reactions — lead to images from scientific research on the body, flora, and fauna. A fragile connection is visualized, creating space to contemplate, fear, and grieve — ''All the whisperings of the world'' is an elegiac yearning for the loss of diversity in nature, which we see is also our own habitat.
