Pour Descôteaux, l’art est une expérience esthétique et intérieure indissociable de la vie secrète des choses : « je tire ma force du royaume des couleurs et des objets ».

Summary:
Despite the significance of the natural sciences for humanity’s present and future, the principles of today’s scientific practices are often not exposed to the broad social discourse they deserve. Through a combination of philosophy and photography, Jana Hartmann produces a visual exploration of the history of alchemy and science. In the book, she initiates an intriguing dialogue on reductionistic and holistic worldviews, using excerpts from both alchemical writings and modern scientific publications, interwoven with selectively framed images of scientific phenomena. In examining humanity’s conquest of nature, Hartmann fosters curiosity towards a world that all too often remains opaque.

Summary:
This book is in itself a Serban Ionescu sculpture, its 68-page oversized board book format having been printed and precisely die-cut to mimic the rambling contours and dazzling colours found on the steel sculptures of this prolific New York-based, Romanian-born artist. It also doubles as a play, penned in three acts by Serban’s fellow artist and close friend James English(...)

Summary:
This book is in itself a Serban Ionescu sculpture, its 68-page oversized board book format having been printed and precisely die-cut to mimic the rambling contours and dazzling colours found on the steel sculptures of this prolific New York-based, Romanian-born artist. It also doubles as a play, penned in three acts by Serban’s fellow artist and close friend James English Leary, who fully embraces Serban’s artistic approach and explores his ideas in a highly absurd series of events that feature an all-star cast of bizarre characters: Happy Lattice, Dog Bench Loaf, and Assembled Chair, to name a few. Gathering together pieces from between 2017 and 2021, a flick through A Thing on a Table in a House transports you directly into Serban’s anthropomorphic world, one that straddles the ever-fine line separating furniture and sculpture. If one were to classify these pieces as furniture, then you’d be looking at pieces that’ve been overrun by some sort of menacing, playful poltergeist. Possessed, they are halfway gone on their transformation into something entirely unclassifiable.

Summary:
Batia Suter’s work intuitively situates found images in new contexts to provoke surprising reactions and significative possibilities. ‘Parallel Encyclopedia’, which she conceived between 2004 and 2007, contains a precise composition of numerous images taken solely from other books. Significant underlying themes expressed in the Amsterdam-based, Swiss artist’s practice are the “iconification” and “immunogenicity” of old images, and the circumstances by which they assume or become charged with new associative values. This is a reprint of Suter’s voluminous book, originally published in 2007 and covering a pictorial plethora of human history, science, philosophy, art, and culture.

Price:
$34.00
(available to order)
Summary:
This publication invites the reader to learn about and from Maternal Fantasies ´ feminist research and collective artistic practice on motherhood(s), care work and representation in the arts. Composed of seven interdisciplinary artists / mothers and ten children, Maternal Fantasies takes the social invisibility of the maternal experience as a point of departure to produce films, images, and performances of fantastical visibility. Through personal writing exercises and collective performance scores, they align themselves with ancestral figures of feminist discourses and artmaking, in order to establish new vocabularies and narratives around the maternal for future generations. As both a handbook and an archive of feminist artmaking, this publication (re-)assembles maternal experiences, reflective essays, autobiographical writing, instructional scores, selected artworks, and a manifesto for a caring economy.

Summary:
Toute rencontre suppose un lieu. Lorsqu'un artiste et un philosophe se rencontrent, le lieu est en règle générale le champ de l'art ou celui de la philosophie. C'est-à-dire qu'elle est toujours le fruit de l'invitation de l'un par l'autre sur un terrain étranger. Il en résulte des échanges asymétriques où la philosophie est convoquée par l'artiste pour servir de support ou de cadre à son discours dans un cas, et où l'art est convoqué par le philosophe pour l'offrir à l'esthétique. La philosophe Anne-Françoise Schmid et l'artiste Ivan Liovik Ebel ont décidé de travailler ensemble à la création d'un nouveau lieu qui ne soit pas exactement celui de la rencontre asymétrique habituelle. Soit un commun = X. De ce lieu, des matérialités originales pourront émerger qui ne cherchent pas absolument leurs points d'ancrage dans telle ou telle discipline. Leur projet consiste donc à « théoriser » une topographie de l'autre « espace » où se rejoindront les différentes matérialités. Ce lieu particulier et délicat, incertain dans ses contours, en équilibre toujours précaire, produira les conditions d'une rencontre qui ne prenne pas place sur le terrain connu du dialogue courtois, mais sous une forme originale, sans tradition : une série de textes courts présentés sur deux colonnes et qui, sans s'interpeller ni se répondre tout à fait explicitement, communiquent de manière sensible. Livre délibérement expérimental, il forge le scénario d'un texte aux lieux flottants, au-delà et en deçà de ses dimensions virtuelles. Il effleure à peine et très discrètement les œuvres, théorèmes de l'âme de l'artiste et de la philosophe.
