Summary:
This book documents three large-scale symposia at Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art. Structured to establish a lively platform for debate and exchange, these symposia explore the practice of three of the protagonists of the contemporary art world: the critic, the curator and the artist. Are they still the people who decide what art is made, what is seen, and whether it is ''good''? The book includes transcripts from workshops and dialogues, and also contains spirited contributions that arrived from participants in the months after the dialogues took place. Bringing together the cross-generational experience of the attendees, this compendium offers insights from some of the most renowned and promising figures in their fields.

Summary:
This volume—a hybrid between a scholarly study and an exhibition catalog—presents the artist Ai Weiwei's work in dialogue with theoretical texts by the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben and the German-Jewish philosopher Hannah Arendt alongside interpretive essays that illuminate the artist’s work on human rights, his engagement with historical Chinese artifacts, and his critical consideration of the effects of globalization.

Summary:
Ces deux-là ont beaucoup ri au micro, dans l’intimité d’un studio d’enregistrement de la radio WBAI à New York entre juillet 1966 et janvier 1967. La forme alerte du dialogue permet de mesurer l’humour de ces deux grands compositeurs. Dans ce dialogue à bâtons rompus, dans cet échange d’égal à égal, il est question de musique bien sûr, mais aussi de littérature, de peinture, de politique et du quotidien. Les deux compositeurs parlent aussi de leurs ratages et relatent de multiples anecdotes. Vous apprendrez ainsi comment faire fi du son de la radio de votre voisin sur la plage et aussi que la meilleure oeuvre qui soit est issue d’une tête sans aucune idée à l’intérieur… Car, outre les éclats de rire, ces entretiens sont aussi ponctués de silences. Silences qui donnent du souffle.
