L’ouvrage a pour fil conducteur les rapports complexes entre les architectures et décors fictifs et les notions d’illusion, de fiction et de réalité de l’Antiquité au Moyen Âge. Il s’intéresse aussi à la réception ultérieure des architectures et décors fictifs antiques et médiévaux. La première partie, « « La ville et ses monuments : fiction et mémoire », est centrée sur l’image de la ville entre modèle idéal vitruvien ou modèle mythique virgilien et imaginaire de l’espace urbain. La deuxième partie, « Architecture et décor : poétiques de la description », permet de voir qu’à travers la pratique, artistique ou littéraire, des architectures et des décors fictifs, il y a toute une poétique des rapports entre espace réel et espace fictif, entre mémoire et création. La troisième, « La représentation architecturale : entre espace fictif et espace allégorique », a pour sujet la notion d’espace symbolique, du « temple » allégorique vitruvien de l’architecture aux allégories du temple de l’âme et à la Jérusalem céleste, et de l’Antiquité à l’époque romantique.

''Time, Forward!'' questions the notion and function of time and how it relates to the way we create and interact with art in the 21st century. Featuring newly commissioned works by an international group of artists, this book illuminates a broad range of responses to an exponentially accelerating world. This volume features a speculation on the future of the senses by Haroon Mirza, an unorthodox history of modernity by Walid Raad, and stills from a science fiction film by Rosa Barba. Essays from scholars, critics, poets, and filmmakers probe issues as diverse as the role of sleep in a 24/7 capitalist society and artistic privacy and appropriation in cyberspace. Some of these artists ask us to press the pause button, others take us back in time, and still others push us forward into the realm of science fiction--only to reveal these fictions to be a form of everyday present reality.

Summary:
From "Magic and myth-work to care and repair" is a two-part book bringing together fourteen essays broadly concerned with the "fiction of the self" and with practices and explorations beyond that fiction. Each part of the book approaches this theme from a different angle. The first part, entitled "On magic and myth-work," deals with practices of transformation and with contemporary myth-making in relation to landscape, performance, and writing. The second part, “On Care and Repair,” gathers together essays that are more personal, but that also look to various technologies (or devices) of self-care alongside ideas of collaboration and the collective. Crucial throughout this exploration are questions of agency and self-narration, but also how these connect to larger issues around historical trauma, neoliberalism, and ecological crisis. The essays reference many other texts and fellow travellers, and also draw on the author's own experiences (and teaching) within various art and theory worlds, as well as with performance, magical practices, gaming, and Buddhism.
