Summary:
Depuis les écrits phares d'Howard Becker, les mondes des arts n'ont cessé de se fragmenter, de se difracter en une hétérogénéité identitaire toujours plus étendue. Pour paraphraser les rédacteurs invités de cette édition ''Arts des Mondes / Mondes des Arts'' – Flavie Boucher, Marie-Charlotte Franco, Sophie Guignard et Dominic Hardy – l'histoire de l'art et les musées ont la mission de révéler la nature bigarrée de notre courtepointe culturelle, si internationale ou nationale soit-elle. C'est donc dans la perspective de la pensée postcoloniale que s'interrogent ici les contributeurs et contributrices de cette édition, en abordant les nouvelles façons de faire au musée, que ce soit dans le collectionnement, l'exposition et ses médiations périphériques.

Fruit d'une négociation serrée entre un artiste et une institution ou acte illicite perpétré à son insu, la stratégie d'intervention se décline en de nombreuses variantes que décortiquent et analysent les contributeurs et contributrices à cette publication.

Summary:
Contemporary Research Intensive was an event organised in the context of the 57th Venice Art Biennale to investigate the concept of 'contemporaneity'. Gathering together artists / curators / researchers through an open call, we asked how the temporal complexity that follows from the coming together of different temporalities in the same present could be made known in the context of contemporary art research, and particularly through practices that involve exhibitionary forms. The book is both part and result of the intensive sharing of ideas to produce something that captures the spirit of both discussions at that time and the publication process as a temporal form.

Summary:
‘Black Sun’ is edited in conversation with Krist Gruijthuijsen, currently the director of KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin, to accompany the exhibitions ‘David Wojnarowicz Photography & Film 1978–1992’, ‘Reza Abdoh’, and ‘TIES, TALES AND TRACES: Dedicated to Frank Wagner, Independent Curator (1958–2016)’. The issue departs from Wojnarowicz’s grief at the loss of loved ones during the 1980s AIDS crisis and anger at the US government for its wilful neglect. It assembles a selection of various gendered and sexual positions, all seeking support, love, and intimacy in linguistic, architectural, and bodily structures while under threat of collapse.

Summary:
D’abord sanitaires, puis espaces d’apprentissage de la nage et lieux de compétition, avant de devenir des équipements de détente et de loisirs, les piscines franciliennes ont été profondément marquées depuis la seconde moitié du xixe siècle par les usages du public. Des pratiques sont nées une variété de formes architecturales, tantôt réduites à un simple bassin, parfois industrielles, et dans certains cas, originales. Jusqu’à aujourd’hui, la longue histoire des piscines en Île-de-France a montré comment l’inventivité des architectes a été mise au service de toutes les activités aquatiques. Cet ouvrage offre ainsi un regard inédit sur ces espaces du quotidien à travers une sélection de photographies réalisées depuis les années 1980 par l’Inventaire d’Île-de-France. Extraites d’un corpus de milliers d’images, elles donnent à voir sous un oeil poétique des objets, matérialisent la lumière qui inonde les bassins ou effacent les contours parfois rugueux des structures.

Summary:
The Aedes exhibition and catalogue ''Two Towers,'' dedicated to Álvaro Siza, commemorates his 90th anniversary as one of the most important living architects and a major contributor to contemporary architecture. Siza is famous for his handmade sketches, in which he captures complex situations in order to ease their understanding and resolution. They establish a dialectic rapport between his creative intuition and the material detailing of quality construction. Both the catalog and exhibition illuminate Siza's passion for towers and his fascination with reaching for the sun, while simultaneously focusing on two case studies and their diverging traits: one is taller and the other is shorter, one is private, and the other is public, one is for dwelling, and the other is for protection, one is urban, and the other is rural, one is in reinforced concrete and the other in lightweight steel frame.
