Summary:
La photographie connaît depuis quelques années un engouement sans précédent auprès du public, des institutions, de la critique mais aussi des artistes, qui l'intègrent de plus en plus à leur pratique. Elle est ainsi devenue aujourd'hui l'un des principaux médiums de l'art contemporain. Ce livre analyse l'infinie variété de sujets abordés et de techniques employées par les artistes, mais il s'attache surtout, et c'est là son originalité, à dresser une typologie de leurs différentes approches. Pour certains artistes, comme Sophie Calle ou Erwin Wurm, la photographie est un moyen d'enregistrer une performance ou une action quotidienne, tandis que pour d'autres, comme Yinka Shonibare ou Gregory Crewdson, elle permet la mise en scène de récits imaginaires. Andreas Gursky, Thomas Demand et Rineke Dijkstra présentent de leur côté une vision froide et en apparence objective du monde extérieur, tandis que Richard Billingham, Nan Goldin ou encore Wolfgang Tillmans donnent à voir des détails intimes de leur vie privée. Entre les mains de Luc Delahaye et d'Allan Sekula, la photographie est un moyen de créer un travail documentaire, alors que pour d'autres encore, comme Cindy Sherman ou Gillian Wearing, l'image photographique devient un réceptacle de valeurs personnelles, sociales et culturelles dans un monde saturé d'images. Au fil de sept chapitres richement illustrés, Charlotte Cotton mène une analyse originale du travail des artistes les plus importants dans ce domaine et de leurs œuvres clés, et livre ainsi une introduction subtile et exigeante à une forme qui domine la scène artistique en ce début de XXIe siècle.

Summary:
Architect and propagandist of the modern movement, Alberto Sartoris (1901-1998) assembled a remarkable photography collection of modern architecture, published in part in two anthologies that have since achieved mythical stature: «Gli elementi dell'architettura funzionale» and «l'Encyclopédie de l'architecture nouvelle». These photographs document the architectural works around the world, from Le Corbusier to Luis Barragàn, photographed by the best specialists of their period. This work presents the collection that Alberto Sartoris donated to the Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne. It also throws light on a poorly understood aspect of twentieth century architecture, namely, the mechanisms behind the creation and diffusion of the «image of modern architecture», as well as the determining role played by photography in this process.

Summary:
"Light Matters" gathers for the first time a selection of Vicki Goldberg's essays and criticism, culled from her writings published over the past twenty-five years. Goldberg’s take on photography is both insightful and encompassing: her subjects range from pop imagery to war journalism, from photo-booth portraits to manipulated digital imagery, from the “boredom” of voyeurism to the great preponderance of tragic photographs in the news. She brings new light to the work of the medium’s “old masters,” among them Walker Evans, Lotte Jacobi, and Lartigue, writing with equal acuity about contemporary trailblazers such as Bill Viola, Daido Moriyama, and Bastienne Schmidt. Goldberg also tackles provocative larger issues facing the medium, such as the potentially “transgressive” nature of photographs, and the camera’s powerful role in a culture of commodification. Dismissing clichés and deftly negotiating the many diverging paths photography now follows, Goldberg demonstrates how to consider not just photographic images themselves, but their impact, and the meaning of that impact. "Light Matters" showcases a writer of great intelligence, wit, and insight, whose understanding of this multifarious and evolving medium is unsurpassed.

Summary:
In ''Camera Geologica'' Siobhan Angus tells the history of photography through the minerals upon which the medium depends. Challenging the emphasis on immateriality in discourses on photography, Angus focuses on the inextricable links between image-making and resource extraction, revealing how the mining of bitumen, silver, platinum, iron, uranium, and rare earth elements is a precondition of photography. Photography, Angus contends, begins underground and, in photographs of mines and mining, frequently returns there. Through a materials-driven analysis of visual culture, she illustrates histories of colonization, labor, and environmental degradation to expose the ways in which photography is enmeshed within and enables global extractive capitalism. Angus places nineteenth-century photography in dialogue with digital photography and its own entangled economies of extraction, demonstrating the importance of understanding photography’s complicity in the economic, geopolitical, and social systems that order the world.

Summary:
Dès le milieu des années 1950, critiques et photographes relient volontiers la peinture de Mondrian avec l’architecture japonaise moderne et certains historiens iront jusqu’à soutenir que Mondrian aurait lui-même été influencé par l’architecture japonaise traditionnelle… Ces associations puissantes ont concouru au rapprochement de la modernité architecturale de l’Occident avec celle du Japon. Elles sont également un pilier de la survivance du japonisme architectural, autrement dit un pilier du néo-japonisme qui se développe après-guerre. Or cette relation entre l’abstraction de Mondrian et l’esthétique de l’architecture japonaise se perçoit peu dans l’architecture, mais plutôt dans la photographie d’architecture. Ce livre, qui pose un regard oblique sur Mondrian, interroge les œuvres des plus grands photographes d’architecture japonais et américains pour expliquer les mécanismes de la japonisation du monde architectural entre 1945 et 1985.
