Summary:
Working from her own lived experience in a New Mexico village and inspired by gravel pits in the landscape, author, curator, and activist Lucy R. Lippard weaves a number of fascinating themes—among them fracking, mining, land art, adobe buildings, ruins, Indian land rights, the Old West, tourism, photography, and water—into a tapestry that illuminates the relationship between culture and the land. From threatened Native American sacred sites to the history of uranium mining, she offers a skeptical examination of the 'subterranean economy.' ''Undermining'' is a must-read for anyone eager to explore a new way of understanding the relationship between art and place in a rapidly shifting society.

Summary:
Alfred Baar, fondateur du MOMA à New-York dans les années 20, se retrouve en convalescence à Stuttgart dès 33. Il connaît très bien la culture allemande et a déjà exposé de nombreux peintres allemands au MOMA. Il assiste donc à l'arrivée des Nazis au pouvoir et raconte à chaud ce qui se passe dans les milieux artistiques, répression, autodafé et redéfinitions des lignes dures de l'esthétique nazie. Il étudie dans les 3 textes qui composent ce livre les milieux du cinéma, de la peinture et de l'architecture. Rentré aux U.S.A., il propose ces textes à un éditeur, mais personne n'en voudra. Si ce livre paraît bien après, il ne le sera jamais sous le titre choisi par Baar. En plus d'être un document rare sur la prise de pouvoir nazie et sa mainmise sur l'art, le style de Baar est distant, froid, presque glacial, ce qui ajoute à l'objectivité de son analyse.

Summary:
L'auteur réunit une diversité d'éléments présents dans la peinture et l'oeuvre graphique mais aussi dans les textes théoriques, poétiques et scénographiques de Kandinsky pour reconstituer une unité philosophique. Il met en place une nouvelle problématique de l'image qui voit s'affronter le monde du pouvoir sur l'autre et celui de l'accueil de la transcendance et de l'altérité.

Summary:
Liam Gillick has written a holistic genealogy of contemporary art that addresses art’s engagement with history, even when it seems apathetic or blind to current events. Rather than focus on dominant works or special cases, Gillick takes a broad view of artistic creation from 1820 to today, underscoring the industry and intelligence of artists as they have responded to(...)

Summary:
Liam Gillick has written a holistic genealogy of contemporary art that addresses art’s engagement with history, even when it seems apathetic or blind to current events. Rather than focus on dominant works or special cases, Gillick takes a broad view of artistic creation from 1820 to today, underscoring the industry and intelligence of artists as they have responded to incremental developments in science, politics, and technology. The great innovations and dislocations of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries have their place in this timeline, but their traces are alternately amplified and diminished as Gillick moves through artistic reactions to liberalism, mass manufacturing, psychology, nuclear physics, automobiles, and a host of other advances. He intimately ties the origins of the contemporary artist to the social and technological adjustments of modern life, which artists struggled to incorporate truthfully into their works.
