Après avoir détruit sa maison-oeuvre-laboratoire en céramique blanche de Garches, Jean-Pierre Raynaud a exposé au CAPC-musée d’Art contemporain de Bordeaux les gravats, telles des reliques, dans des poubelles métalliques en usage dans les blocs opératoires.

Après avoir détruit sa maison-oeuvre-laboratoire en céramique blanche de Garches, Jean-Pierre Raynaud a exposé au CAPC-musée d’Art contemporain de Bordeaux les gravats, telles des reliques, dans des poubelles métalliques en usage dans les blocs opératoires. Pour lui, en effet, l’oeuvre d’art est un but et son unique raison d’être. « Le but n’est pas de faire des oeuvres d’art, il est de vivre l’oeuvre d’art comme un but ». « En 23 ans, la maison a connu cinq stades successifs. Et je tenais beaucoup à en assurer moi-même les métamorphoses. Quand j’ai pris conscience, en 1988, qu’elle était réellement terminée, cela a été un choc terrible, comme l’aboutissement d’une recherche, la fin d’une vie. Je n’ai pas voulu accepter que ma relation avec elle prenne fin, aussi, durant quatre ans, j’ai réfléchi sur le sens de cette « oeuvre » qui m’échouait comme si je devais en être le gardien jusqu’à ma mort. J’ai réalisé qu’étant unique elle méritait plus d’audace et d’égard que cette architecture parfaite, figée qu’elle était devenue, ce qui est le propre des objets d’art, il me fallait lui faire subir un sort exceptionnel, digne d’elle. Je décidai de la métamorphoser, de l’emporter ailleurs, de lui faire vivre une expérience absolue. Pour cela, elle devait se soumettre à une ultime transformation : la démolition ». Jean-Pierre Raynaud, 1993. Le livre retrace l'histoire de la maison, de sa construction à sa destruction. Il est accompagné du film de Michelle Porte (33 min).

Conceived and closely edited by Gerhard Richter himself, Atlas cuts straight to the heart of the artist's thinking, collecting more than 5,000 photographs, drawings and sketches that he has compiled or created since the moment of his creative breakthrough in 1962. Year by year, the images closely parallel the subjects of Richter's paintings, revealing the orderly but open-ended analysis that has been so central to his art. Offering invaluable insight into Richter's working process, this encyclopedic new edition, which completely revises and updates the rare, out-of-print 1997 edition and includes 147 additional plates, features 780 multi-image panels, each reproduced full page and in full color. Richter redefined the terms of contemporary painting as he looked to photography for a way to release painting from the political and symbolic burdens of Socialist Realism and Abstract Expressionism. From pictures of family and friends to images from the mass media, Richter's photographs - sometimes found, sometimes original - have provided the basis for many of his paintings, often re-emerging in a luminous, monochromatic palette, and falling ambiguously between documentary and historical painting.

This Gagosian Gallery catalog of James Turrell’s recent exhibition with the London gallery features installations, light works, sculptures, and prints by the artist. For more than forty-five years, Turrell has explored the myriad possibilities of using light as a medium of perception. His formally simple works draw attention to the limits of seeing, while seeking to expand the wordless thought that they provoke. Throughout these permutations, the light that is normally used to illuminate other objects is assigned form and structure, making it the subject of the revelation. He continues to use light as his primary subject and material, with its inherent allusions to painting and sculpture.

Gregory et Cyril Chapuisat (nés respectivement en 1972 à New York et en 1976 à Bienne, vivent et travaillent « in situ ») réalisent des œuvres aux confins de la sculpture monumentale et de la micro-architecture. Leurs installations, construites avec une méthode inventée pour chaque cas, sont le plus souvent spécifiques à un lieu, et donc éphémères. Elles évoquent des rêves, des peurs ou des expériences de l'enfance, et affirment une convergence entre l'art et la vie. Les phases de création et de réalisation prennent corps en de longues périodes de travail collectif, pendant lesquels les artistes vivent parfois dans leurs œuvres.

Nova Cantabrigiensis is a utopian island in the middle of the Minas Basin, Nova Scotia. It is the invention of visionary outsider artist John Devlin, and was designed to recreate the atmosphere and architecture of Cambridge, England, which John considers to be the perfect city. John came to study in Cambridge in 1979, and fell in love with its unique ambience. When mental illness forced him to return home to Canada after just one year, he became obsessed with discovering the secret to 'the Cambridge essence'. Over ten years, John created over 360 beautiful and unique illustrations, dream-like sketches of re-imagined and reconfigured Cambridge buildings, drawn again and again in the pursuit of perfection. The book Nova Cantabrigiensis presents a selection of John's illustrations, as well as an essay describing his plans for the island and his mathematical theories about architecture. It is published by Island Editions.
