Avec « Black Dolls », sélection de poupées et de photographies de la collection Deborah Neff, La maison rouge clôture son cycle d’expositions consacrées aux collections privées. Conçues dans leur immense majorité entre 1840 et 1940 environ par des Africaines-Américaines, ces deux cents poupées noires, faites à la main en tissu et matériaux divers, sont des objets à la fois pluriels et uniques. Substituts affectifs et archives intimes dans un monde où les familles noires américaines étaient bien souvent séparées, elles fonctionnèrent aussi comme des images de résistance sociale et politique. Elles s’imposent aujourd’hui comme d’admirables créations à la valeur artistique entière.

Wassily Kandinsky is often recognized as the first artist to paint shapes and colors without regard to visual references in the world. However, abstract paintings were being produced even before Kandinsky’s experiments with the form.

Summary:
Wassily Kandinsky is often recognized as the first artist to paint shapes and colors without regard to visual references in the world. However, abstract paintings were being produced even before Kandinsky’s experiments with the form. In the middle of the nineteenth century, in England, Sweden, and Switzerland, respectively, Georgiana Houghton, Hilma af Klint, and Emma Kunz each developed their own abstract pictorial language. Though working completely independently from one another, these three artists shared a desire to make visible the laws of nature, the intellect, and the supernatural. Working within the context of the spiritual movements of their times—Houghton in Spiritism, AF Klint in theosophy, and Kunz in naturopathy—they each produced abstract paintings that bore witness to a “mediumistic” praxis.

Publication de l'exposition Musée Ziem, Martigues, 7 avril - 10 juin 2001. Cette exposition rassemble des oeuvres issues des collections du Fonds régional d'art contemporain Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur et du Fonds national d'art contemporain autour du thème architecture et fiction. Une architecture parasitée par des fictions diverses, qu'elles soient poétiques, humoristiques, ou dérisoires. Le titre de l'exposition est emprunté à Kafka dans Le Château, phrase qui permet d'appréhender l'architecture telle que les artistes l'envisagent, sous la forme de digresssions et de décalages. Chaque artiste invité apporte une proposition qui déjoue toute volonté de système.

Summary:
During the 1960s, as Western notions of endless progress and growth gave way to concerns over industrial pollution, resource depletion and ecological limits, attitudes toward the environment became social, political and ideological. Published to accompany the first expansive survey of the history of environmental thinking in architecture, ''Emerging ecologies: Architecture and the rise of environmentalism'' looks at the role architects have played in defining our understanding of ''nature'' and the ''environment,'' specifically during the rise of environmental discourse. The illustrated publication presents over 45 architectural contributions—from Eleanor Raymond and Mária Telkes’ groundbreaking work on solar houses to Buckminster Fuller’s world resource management system and the environmental symbolism of Emilio Ambasz—to explore the role designers played in both promoting ecological concerns and in outlining the very terms of this nascent field. Through an introductory essay by curator Carson Chan and brief texts on each of the featured projects, ''Emerging ecologies'' documents the proximity between ecology, design and statecraft, allowing readers to take stock of historic milestones as architecture confronts today’s climate emergencies.

Summary:
This volume, "Grace Wales Bonner: Dream in the rhythm—visions of sound and spirit in the MoMA Collection", is an artist’s book created by the acclaimed London-based designer Grace Wales Bonner as “an archive of soulful expression.” Through an extraordinary selection of nearly 80 works from The Museum of Modern Art’s collection and archives, this unique volume draws multisensory connections between pictures and poems, music and performance, hearing and touch, gestures and vibrations, and bodies in motion. Photographs, scores and films by artists such as Dawoud Bey, Mark Bradford, Roy DeCarava, Lee Friedlander, David Hammons, Glenn Ligon, Steve McQueen, Lorna Simpson and Ming Smith, among others, are juxtaposed with signal texts by Black authors spanning the past century, including Amiri Baraka, Nikki Giovanni, Langston Hughes, June Jordan, Robin Coste Lewis, Ishmael Reed, Greg Tate, Jean Toomer, Quincy Troupe and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Artist’s Choice: Grace Wales Bonner—Spirit Movers", this resplendent publication is a deeply personal meditation on and around modern Black expression that echoes Wales Bonner’s own vibrant, virtuosic designs.

Lee Ufan Arles invite Philippe Dagen, historien de l’art, critique et commissaire d’exposition à imaginer pour l’été 2023 la première exposition temporaire de l’Espace MA.Philippe Dagen, proche du travail de Lee Ufan depuis de nombreuses années, a réuni cinq artistes plasticiens travaillant en France - Brigitte Aubignac, Ymane Chabi-Gara, Marc Desgrandchamps Tim Eitel et Djamel Tatah - qui interrogent et représentent la figure humaine. Celle-ci se présente seule, non pour des raisons formelles, mais parce que cette solitude renvoie à des situations aux significations sociales et psychiques qui caractérisent particulièrement notre époque: l’enfermement en soi, l’absence de l’autre, la mélancolie, l'exclusion ou le deuil.L'exposition « Figures seules » sera présentée à l’Espace MA de Lee Ufan Arles du 1er Juillet au 24 septembre 2023.
