Summary:
"Camera" est le fruit d'une collaboration entre l'architecte Chang Yung Ho, le vidéaste Yang Fudong et l'artiste multimédia Wang Jian Wei deux artistes contemporains chinois. Au travers du rapport de l'architecture et de la vidéo, l’exposition du MAMVP voudrait encourager le spectateur à expérimenter de nouvelles formes de présentation de l'image dans l'espace. Se fondant sur la métaphore de la “ camera ” en tant que chambre ou appareil, Chang Yung Ho a conçu quatre modules architecturaux, salles de projection, dans lesquelles les visiteurs regardent et sont regardés. À chaque espace correspond une marque d'appareil photographique -Polaroid, Leica, Nikon, et Seagull- faisant ainsi référence à différentes zones géographiques - respectivement les Etats-Unis, l'Allemagne, le Japon et la Chine. Pour chaque module, l'architecte a travaillé avec des matériaux différents : la tôle pour Leica, le plexiglas transparent pour Polaroid, le bois, le métal et les miroirs pour Nikon et le papier de riz pour Seagull. Les œuvres vidéo inédites de Yang Fudong et Wang Jian Wei ont été conçues spécialement pour les modules dans lesquels elles sont projetées. Ces deux artistes vivant à Shangaï et à Pékin, s'inspirent des transformations de la société chinoise contemporaine. Entretiens avec Hans-Ulrich Obrist. Textes de Hou Hanru, Laurent Gutierrez, Valérie Portefaix, Michel Nuridsany, Charles Merewether.

Since the 1970s, Chicago-based artist Barbara Kasten (born 1936) has developed her expansive practice of photography through the lens of many disciplines, including sculpture, painting, theater, textile and installation. Kasten was one of the first artists to be invited by Polaroid to use its new large-format film, and it was with this that she made many of her best-known works. In the mid-1980s she stepped out of the studio and began working with large architectural spaces that were symbolic of both economic and cultural capital.

Summary:
Exhibition catalogue from June to November 2008, Ridgefield, The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum. The artist is one of the most celebrated portrait painters of recent times, but it is not as well known that she has always practiced photography alongside painting. Her photographs, taken over the last two decades with 35-millimeter Polaroid and (more recently) digital cameras, reveal a more informal side to Peyton's aesthetic, in which the intrinsic serendipities of photographic exposure and development are allowed full play. The 62 portraits published in this volume are a mixture of celebrities and art stars of varying fame, such as Marc Jacobs, Matthew Barney, Chloe Sevigny, Jake Chapman, Nick Relph, Spencer Sweeney, Jarvis Cocker, Gavin Brown, etc.
