Summary:
Qu’est-ce qu’un lieu ? Nous pensons le savoir mais si l’on nous pose la question, nous ne le savons plus. Quoi de plus difficile en effet que de définir un lieu, de l’expliquer, de traduire tout ce qu’il implique, tout ce qu’il contient comme charge historique, émotionnelle, symbolique ?

Summary:
Qu’est-ce qu’un lieu ? Nous pensons le savoir mais si l’on nous pose la question, nous ne le savons plus. Quoi de plus difficile en effet que de définir un lieu, de l’expliquer, de traduire tout ce qu’il implique, tout ce qu’il contient comme charge historique, émotionnelle, symbolique ? Ce livre se présente sous la forme originale d’une exposition dans laquelle, salle après salle, le visiteur-lecteur découvre des œuvres qui toutes analysent la notion de lieu dans le monde contemporain. L’art qui est ici exposé révèle une grande variété de démarches et de pratiques. Certains artistes explorent la ville et ses transformations afin de comprendre notre rapport à un environnement urbain de plus en plus uniforme tandis que d’autres tentent de cerner le rôle de la nature dans notre imaginaire de citadins. Certains inventent des mondes fantastiques pour mieux montrer à quel point le lieu n’est qu’une création de l’esprit tandis que d’autres nous font prendre conscience que même les lieux les plus familiers recèlent une part d’étrangeté. Certains artistes s’attachent au lieu comme mémoire d’événements historiques ou personnels, réels ou mythiques, tandis que d’autres décrivent son caractère éminemment politique. De nombreux artistes s’intéressent aux divisions territoriales et à leurs conséquences souvent dramatiques ; d’autres aux errants, aux itinérants, à ceux qui n’ont pas de prétentions sur la terre ; d’autres enfin aux « non-lieux » anonymes et à la menace qu’ils font peser sur la diversité de notre monde contemporain. Tous les artistes de ce livre décryptent la façon dont les lieux nous affectent et nous façonnent. Ce faisant, ils nous aident à comprendre le monde dans lequel nous vivons.

Summary:
In February 2024, Tacita Dean undertook a residency in the Cy Twombly Gallery at the Menil Collection in Houston. Designed by architect Renzo Piano in collaboration with Twombly, the Gallery houses a display of Twombly’s work organised by the artist to augment the building’s mood of disorientation and temporal suspension. For Dean, it is a site of pilgrimage and ‘a place to go out of your head’. Dean has loved the work of the American painter and sculptor since writing her art school thesis on him in the late 1980s. She photographed his studio home in Gaeta, Italy, in 2009, made a film with him in 2011 called Edwin Parker, and has written about his work on numerous occasions. During her time at the Menil, she asked permission to spend a night in the Gallery. "Why Cy" is a book of exuberant adoration, full of colour and black-and-white photographs that pay homage to this singular artist. It reflects Dean’s longstanding admiration for Twombly’s work and her close affinity with it, while at the same time taking a new, surprising, and unintended path. The book includes a booklet of notes by Dean developed out of her night with Cy, and coincides with the exhibition ‘Tacita Dean: Blind Folly’ at the Menil Collection (11 October 2024–19 April 2025), which includes a room dedicated to celebrating the connection between Dean and Twombly. Limited edition of 1,000 signed and numbered copies

Summary:
In her work, Buon Fresco, 2014, Dean filmed details of Giotto's frescos in the Upper Basilica in Assisi using a macro lens, in order, she said, to have the perspective of the artist himself. Giotto humanised the depiction of people in painting in a parallel way to St Francis's humanising of sainthood, and this moment, when the radical artist depicted the radical saint is(...)

Giotto humanised the depiction of people in painting in a parallel way to St Francis's humanising of sainthood, and this moment, when the radical artist depicted the radical saint is an extremely important juncture in the history of art. Frescoes are meant to be seen from a distance, so this book provides a revelatory view of the minutiae and sophistication of Giotto's brushstrokes, which at times anticipates the future canon of mark marking in Western painting.
