Summary:
Vernon Lee-a pseudonym of Violet Paget (1856-1935)-is the most important female aesthetician to come out of 19th-century England. Though she was widely known for her supernatural fictions, Lee never gained the recognition she so clearly deserved for her contributions in the fields of aesthetics, philosophy of empathy and art criticism. An early follower of Walter Pater, she wrote with an extreme attention to her own responses to artworks, and a level of psychological sensitivity rarely seen in any aesthetic writing. Today, she is largely understudied and rarely read, her aesthetic writings long out of print. Now, David Zwirner Books reintroduces her writing through the first-ever English publication of The Psychology of an Art Writer (1903) along with selections from her groundbreaking Gallery Diaries (1901-4), breathtaking accounts of Lee’s own experiences with the great paintings and sculptures she traveled to see.

The periodical has long been celebrated for its underground/overground position and its cutting, humorous, on-the-streets coverage and critique of the art world. Art-Rite moved easily through the expansive community it mapped out, paying homage to an emergent generation of artists, including many who were—or would soon become—the defining voices of the era. Through hundreds of interviews, reviews, statements and projects for the page—as well as artist-focused and thematic issues on video, painting, performance and artists' books—Art-Rite's sharp editorial vision and commitment to holding up the work of artists stands as a meaningful and lasting contribution to the art history of New York and beyond. All issues of Art-Rite are collected in this volume.

Cette publication s’intéresse à la façon dont les stratégies de dénormalisation mises en place par les arts visuels peuvent se prolonger par le biais de l’écriture. Dans les trois chapitres de ce livre, les discussions théoriques et artistiques s’associent à la théorie queer, aux études sur la handicap et à la théorie postcoloniale pour définir trois pratiques : le drag radical, le drag transtemporel et le drag abstrait. Une des caractéristiques de l’art queer, tel que le définit Renate Lorenz, est sa possibilité d’agir à travers le temps, désorganisant une chronologie positiviste et se saisissant d’objets historiques par affinité. L’art queer cultive l’anachronisme comme méthode.

Mela Dávila and Maite Muñoz here show how the arrival of inexpensive home video technologies in the 1970s and then of digital media at the turn of the millennium sparked revolutions in the creation and diffusion of both video artworks and artists' publications. Dávila proposes a theoretical and historical framework for works long dismissed by the market because of their serial nature, while Muñoz shows how artists have taken advantage of the permeability between publications and audovisual elements.

Summary:
The radical youth movements of the 1960s and '70s gave rise to both militant political groups ranging from urban guerrilla groups to autonomist counterculture, as well as radical media, including radio, music, film, video, and television. This book is concerned with both of those tendencies considered as bifurcations of radical media ecologies in the 1970s. While some of the forms of media creativity and invention mapped here, such as militant film and video, pirate radio and guerrilla television, fit within conventional definitions of media, others, such as urban guerrilla groups and autonomous movements, do not. Nevertheless what was at stake in all these ventures was the use of available means of expression in order to produce transformative effects, and they were all in different ways responding to ideas and practices of guerrilla struggle and specifically of guerrilla media. This book examines these radical media ecologies as guerrilla networks, emphasising the proximity and inseparability of radical media and political practices.

Summary:
Mirages have long astonished travellers and beguiled thirsty desert voyagers. Chinese and Japanese poetry and images depicted mirages as the exhalations of clam-monsters. Indian sources related them to the ‘thirst of gazelles’, a metaphor for the futility of desire. From the late eighteenth century to the present, mirages became a symbol of ‘Oriental despotism’, a malign, but also enchanted, emblem. But the mirage motif is rarely simply condemnatory. More commonly it conveys a sense of escape, of fascination, of a desire to be deceived. "The Waterless Sea" is the first book devoted to the theories and history of mirages. Christopher Pinney navigates a sinuous pathway through a mysterious and evanescent terrain, showing how mirages have impacted politics, culture, science, and religion, and how we can continue to learn from their sublimity.

Art historian Lori Waxman reveals the radical potential that walking holds for us all.

This book documents a residency research project (2007–2017) founded by viaindustriae, a cultural non-profit organization and a collective that aims at investigating the intermediate territories between art and architecture, new forms of communication, and activating the artistic message through different methods. Initially based on specific research into a marginal and radical rural-mountain landscape in Umbria that used "hypertextual" methods and projects to draw links between different sites and "thematic" landscapes, the outcome is a broad investigation, exhibition, and catalogue on public spaces, site-specific art practices, and interventions on landscape in Italy and beyond.
