Summary:
« Formes et couleurs » est le titre d'un livre édité il y a cent ans exactement, en 1921, par la Librairie centrale des beaux-arts. L'auteur, Auguste Thomas, a réalisé au pochoir vingt planches de motifs décoratifs très richement colorés. C'est ce livre qui a inspiré l'idée de créer un répertoire d'images foisonnant sur la thématique des Arts décoratifs selon deux axes stricts mais vastes : la forme et la couleur. L'invitation faite à Valérie du Chéné de travailler à deux voix avec Anne Jourdain, responsable du fonds ancien, selon des choix implicitement subjectifs, allait de soi : par sa recherche plastique sur la couleur, sur la forme dessinée en contours, et par la découverte qu'elle a faite du fonds ancien en arrivant à l'isdaT, venant de Paris où elle avait étudié aux beaux-arts. Il lui fallait transmettre aux étudiant·es de première année le « trésor » contenu dans ces livres anciens et les inciter à revenir les ouvrir comme des boîtes à images au fil de leurs années d'étude. Entre la pédagogie et le fonds ancien, l'enrichissement est mutuel, toujours.

Summary:
Director of the Generali Foundation from 2008 to 2014, Sabine Folie helped establish the institution's reputation for generating new critical discussion on contemporary art through revisiting modernism. This survey catalog, illustrated with photographs and source materials, documents the extensive collection of works acquired during Folie's tenure. Essays by theorists and artists reflect on contemporary art themes exploring areas such as linguistic devices, the dismantling of representation and the reorganization of pictorial space, the changing roles of artist and museums, the relationship between subject and environment due to globalization and post-colonialism, artistic processing of history and the production of memorial culture.

Summary:
This book explores the evolving concept of unfinishedness as essential to understanding art movements from the Renaissance to the present day. Unfinished features more than 200 works, created in a variety of media, by artists ranging from Leonardo, Titian, Rembrandt, Turner, and Cézanne to Picasso, Warhol, Twombly, Freud, Richter, and Nauman. What unites these works, across centuries and media, is that each one displays some aspect of being unfinished. Essays and case studies by major contemporary scholars address this key concept from the perspective of both the creator and the viewer, probing the impact that this long artistic trajectory—which can be traced back to the first century—has had on modern and contemporary art. The book explores the degrees to which instances of incompleteness were accidental or intentional, experimental or conceptual. Also included are illuminating interviews with contemporary artists, including Tuymans, Celmins, and Marden, and parallel considerations of the unfinished in literature and film. The result is a multidisciplinary approach and thought-provoking analysis that provide valuable insight into the making, meaning, and critical reception of the unfinished in art.

Summary:
We live in a hyper-mediated world, drowning in an ocean of images and information. ''Conflict in my outlook'' gathers contemporary artworks and new texts that shed light on human experience in an era of ubiquitous networked technologies. From digital intimacies and the weaponization of social media to invisible power structures, clickwork, and the 'gig' economy, contributors seek a better future in the context of algorithmic racism, machine learning, and the new colonial frontiers of surveillance capitalism. The anthology, which is published on the occasion of a two-part exhibition series at UQ Art Museum, focuses on art as a means to explore the techno-politics that define our age.

Summary:
Between 1968 and 1970, the artist collective Smokehouse Associates transformed Harlem with vibrant, community-oriented abstract murals and sculptures. Established by William T. Williams and including Melvin Edwards, Guy Ciarcia, and Billy Rose, Smokehouse grew to encompass a range of creative practitioners united around the revolutionary potential of public art. Published over fifty years after the collective’s founding, this volume offers the first critical examination of the group’s work. With previously unpublished images and ephemera and a rich chronology, it serves as a sourcebook that expands the narrative of public art and social practice in the United States to include the contributions of artists of African descent.
