Summary:
Après la faillite de son cabinet, Valerio, un architecte, devient la curiosité de son quartier en érigeant une singulière tour de briques au motif encore plus incompréhensible. Au-delà des manifestations de compassion ou de crainte des voisins, l’édifice du vieil homme renvoie un déconcertant constat : celui de la déconstruction de nos villes, de nos sociétés, et de la dislocation de nos vies modernes. Tandis que son gendre, agent immobilier, mène d’intenses tractations pour revendre l’immeuble familial, on en vient à se demander où commence la folie quand elle se bâtit au milieu d’un austère champ de ruines. Une perspective biaisée où économie, police, mais aussi famille et lien social, semblent tous glisser le long d’un fil à plomb... Sur un fond de crise économique, l’histoire romantique et singulière de Valerio, aidé par Chiara, une bénévole du samu social lisboète, nous parle du déclassement des citoyens européens à l’heure de la dégradation de nos conditions de vie, alimentée par une mondialisation nivelant par le bas. Poétique, tragique mais combatif.

Summary:
In his own lifetime, William Blake (1757–1827) was a relatively unknown nonconventional artist with a strong political bent. William Blake and the Age of Aquarius is a beautifully illustrated look at how, some two hundred years after his birth, the antiestablishment values embodied in Blake’s art and poetry became a model for artists of the American counterculture. This book provides new insights into the politics and protests of Blake’s own lifetime, and the generation of artists who revived and reimagined his work in the mid-1940s through 1970, or what might be called the “long sixties.” Contributors explore Blake’s outsider status in Georgian England and how his individualistic vision spoke to members of the Beat Generation, hippies, radical poets and writers, and other voices of the counterculture. Among the artists, musicians, and writers who looked to Blake were such diverse figures as Diane Arbus, Jay DeFeo, the Doors, Sam Francis, Allen Ginsberg, Jess, Agnes Martin, Ad Reinhardt, Charles Seliger, Maurice Sendak, Robert Smithson, Clyfford Still, and many others. This book also explores visual cultures around such galvanizing moments of the 1960s as Woodstock and the Summer of Love.

Summary:
Nigel Peake produces meticulous hand-drawn maps and obsessively detailed pencil illustrations. Architecture plays a prominent role in his work, as is also the case with ‘There’, the result of his spending a month in an apartment in Paris while working on a series of drawings. There he soon found another drawing project when looking outside the apartment’s windows, a yard that was in fact inaccessible to him. The yard was always devoid of people, so he began to draw it using blue pencil. Each picture is a fragment of the whole, interpretations and perspectives that can be pieced together, interchanged, or float freely without context. The book includes a twelve-page insert with texts.
