Summary:
Ce livre analyse avec précision les racines culturelles des théories et des pratiques situationnistes.

Summary:
Peggy Guggenheim (1898-1979) fut toute sa vie en quête de beauté absolue. Riche héritière d'un père disparu prématurément dans le naufrage du Titanic, elle fut certes une grande prêtresse de l'art contemporain mais surtout une provocatrice à la sensualité débridée dont la trajectoire turbulente croisa celle des génies de son temps, d'Ernest Hemingway à Truman Capote, de Jean Cocteau à Salvador Dali. Muse ratée mais collectionneuse visionnaire qui contribua à révéler les peintres Mark Rothko et Jackson Pollock, elle vécut sur un mode paroxystique, séduisant au passage Max Ernst, son second époux, mais aussi Marcel Duchamp, Yves Tanguy ou encore Samuel Beckett.

Summary:
Visual Time offers a rare consideration of the idea of time in art history. The author discusses the art, and writing about the art, of modern and contemporary artists, such as Gerard Sekoto, Thomas Demand, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and Cindy Sherman, as well as the sixteenth-century figures Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Albrecht Dürer, Matthias Grünewald, and Hans Holbein. In the process, he addresses the phenomenological turn in the study of the image, its application to the understanding of particular artists, the ways verisimilitude eludes time in both the past and the present, and the role of time in nationalist accounts of the past.
