Summary:
Dans Paris, à côté du piéton, la piscine fait surgir le baigneur et le nageur. Depuis plus d’un siècle, on peut y nager en toutes saisons. Il y a là un don de la Ville qui délivre le bipède de sa gravité. Se dénuder, se doucher, s’abandonner, couler, faire la planche, brasser, se revigorer et même par certaines baies vitrées, contempler des bouts de la capitale… Comment(...)

Une enquête menée par deux ethnographes amateurs, sur plus d’un an, dans les 41 piscines municipales de la capitale. Ils ont nagé, regardé, écouté. Ils ont conversé avec des maîtres-nageurs, d’autres nageurs, ils ont observé les édifices, humé les quartiers. Ils sont remontés à la source de toute cette affaire, la Seine.

Summary:
Skateboarders are an increasingly common feature of the urban environment - recent estimates total 40 million world-wide. We are all aware of their often extraordinary talent and manoeuvres on the city streets. This book is the first detailed study of the urban phenomenon of skateboarding. It looks at skateboarding history from the surf-beaches of California in the 1950s, through the purpose-built skateparks of the 1970s, to the street-skating of the present day and shows how skateboarders experience and understand the city through their sport. Dismissive of authority and convention, skateboarders suggest that the city is not just a place for working and shopping but a true pleasure-ground, a place where the human body, emotions and energy can be expressed to the full.

Barcelona 1000 Graffiti is a photo-essay by Rosa Puig about graffiti in Barcelona, a city that's become a meeting place and 'concrete canvas' for graffitists from all over the world. The wide range of graffiti documented in this work is scattered throughout the city, a cause of astonishment and admiration for some, of concern for the authorities, and of despair for the owners of facades irreverently invaded under cover of darkness. The graffiti collected in this book are found in different areas of Barcelona - from the very central to the most far-flung - and offer very diverse topics and tones - by turns poetic, socially aware, dissenting - while competing with the customary visual pollution of the city and helping to enrich its landscape. The photographs reflect the surprised gaze of their author, at once captivated by 'graphic pieces' that, as she says, she 'would rip off the walls and hang in my house.'

Ce livre offre un regard d’un genre unique sur la vie et l’oeuvre de l’une des figures les plus appréciées et influentes de la scène vibrante de l’art de la rue : Blek le Rat. Célèbres dans le monde entier, les oeuvres de ce pochoiriste parisien ont profondément marqué d’innombrables street artists et n’ont de cesse d’inspirer designers graphiques et publicitaires, notamment dans le domaine de la musique. Des premiers pochoirs représentant des rats bombés sur les murs de Paris aux affiches de la journaliste Florence Aubenas en passant par les portraits de Lady Di ou de Serge Gainsbourg, c’est tout l’art révolutionnaire de Blek le Rat qui est ici montré pour la première fois - soit vingt années de création dans la rue et pour la rue. L’ouvrage présente plus de 300 oeuvres in situ magnifiquement photographiées et propose non seulement la description des techniques utilisées par Blek mais aussi une analyse de la signification de ses créations au pochoir. Acteur omniprésent de la scène de l’art urbain dans des villes aussi cosmopolites que Paris, New York, Barcelone, Buenos Aires, Londres, Taipei, Naples et Berlin, Blek le Rat, à travers ce livre, laisse enfin une trace durable de son travail qui continuera longtemps d’inspirer les amoureux de l’art de la rue.
