Summary:
A l'occasion du bicentenaire de la naissance du duc d'Aumale, le catalogue de l'exposition présente sa collection de photographies et donne notamment à voir le château de Chantilly, dont il a hérité en 1830. Sans héritier direct depuis la mort de son dernier fils en 1872, le duc commande à Claudius Couton une couverture photographique de Chantilly, puis fait reconstruire à partir de 1875 par l'architecte Honoré Daumet le Grand Château mutilé depuis la Révolution. Après la reconstruction, il confie en 1885 à Alphonse Chalot, un enfant de Chantilly, les prises de vues du château, témoignage irremplaçable sur la genèse de son accrochage. Ayant installé ses collections dans le château, il lègue le musée Condé à l'Institut de France en 1884, avec interdiction de prêter ses collections et de modifier sa présentation.

Summary:
Europe’s new eastern borders stretch from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea: 1.600 heavily guarded kilometers between former “fraternal countries.” The photographers Yann Mingard and Alban Kakulya spent a long time on the road; one of them traveled down from the North and the other up from the South in an effort to document the places and landscapes that mark the end of the Western world. On their journey, they photographed the landscape as well as the border posts with their soldiers and their refugees seized at the frontier, and documented a reality defined in faraway Strasbourg, Brussels, and elsewhere. Explanatory maps and satellite images are juxtaposed in this book with the striking photographs. Articles by political scientists, security experts, sociologists, human rights specialists, and philosophers, as well as literary texts round out this photographic survey of the EU’s Eastern European external borders.

Summary:
After World War II, the American road trip began appearing prominently in literature, music, movies and photography. As Stephen Shore has written, “Our country is made for long trips. Since the 1940s, the dream of the road trip, and the sense of possibility and freedom that it represents, has taken its own important place within our culture.” Many photographers purposefully embarked on journeys across the U.S. in order to create work. Hundreds of them have continued the tradition of the photographic road trip on down to the present, from Stephen Shore to Taiyo Onorato, Nico Krebs, Alec Soth and Ryan McGinley. The Open Road considers the photographic road trip as a genre in and of itself, and presents the story of photographers for whom the American road is muse. The book features David Campany’s introduction to the genre and 18 chapters presented chronologically, each exploring one American road trip in depth through a portfolio of images and informative texts.

Summary:
Loved, hated, revered, scorned, real, imagined: this is Los Angeles. "Looking at Los Angeles" is a fascinating journey into the centre of the city’s heart and soul. Pictured within its pages is a Los Angeles of powerful dreams and startling realities. Editors Marla Hamburg Kennedy and Ben Stiller have gathered pictorial representations of Los Angeles from the last three-quarters of a century, resulting in this selection of more than 200 stunning, beautifully reproduced colour and duotone depictions of the city from different eras and different points of view. Along with the carefully chosen images by approximately 100 photographers who have time again turned to Los Angeles for inspiration, a preface and foreword by the editors describe their great affection for the city, while David L. Ulin’s essay offers a critical and loving look at Los Angeles. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Los Angeles Conservancy, and the organization provides an essay about the importance of saving this city's rich architectural heritage. "Looking at Los Angeles" is at once a lesson in history, architecture, style, and culture, and a remarkable visual and written tribute to one of America’s greatest cities. Includes photographs by: Robert Adams, John Baldessari, William Claxton, Will Connell, Joe Deal, John Divola, William Eggleston, Sam Fentress, Anthony Friedkin, John Humble, Dennis Keeley, Florian Maier-Aichen, Grant Mudford, Karin A. Mueller, Catherine Opie, Ed Ruscha, Stephen Shore, Julius Schulman, Joel Sternfeld, Timothy Street-Porter, John Swope, Andy Warhol, Julian Wasser, Robert Weingarten, Garry Winogrand, Max Yavno, and others.

Le quartier de la Maladrerie, à Aubervilliers en Seine-Saint-Denis est l’une des réalisations les plus remarquables de l’architecture urbaine de la fin des années 1970. 'La Mala', comme ses habitants l’appellent, a été imaginé par Renée Gailhoustet. En 2017, l’artiste Julie Balagué s’y installe. Depuis, elle y vit et y travaille. Elle est allée à la rencontre des habitants, des passants et des associations du coin. De courts textes poétiques de la romancière Fanny Taillandier, inspirés des témoignages recueillis par la photographe, accompagnent la série d’images. En fin d’ouvrage est inséré un livret qui rassemble deux textes plus contextuels et théoriques de l’architecte Katherine Fiumani d’une part et de l’historienne de la photographie, Raphaële Bertho.

Summary:
This volume considers how contemporary photographers have responded to the US military’s impact on the domestic environment since the 1970s, a dynamic period for environmental activism as well as for photography. This catalogue presents a lively range of voices at the intersection of art, environmentalism, militarism, photography, and politics. Alongside interviews with prominent contemporary artists working in the landscape photography tradition, the images speak to photographers’ varied motivations, personal experiences, and artistic approaches. The result is a surprising picture of the ways violence and warfare surround us. Although most modern combat has taken place abroad, the US domestic landscape bears the footprint of armed conflict—much of the environmental damage we live with today was caused by our own military and the expansive network of industries supporting its work.
