The conjuring of illusions, the inherent link between the material and the spiritual, and the wish to make the invisible visible are all part of this wider discourse. ''Visions of Enchantment'' looks at the fascinating intersections between esotericism and visual culture through a decidedly cross-cultural lens, with topics ranging from talismanic magic and the Renaissance exploration of alchemy, through to the role of magic in modern art and 20th-century experimental film.

Research is of paramount importance as a fundamental basis for everything that museums do. This publication engages with the diverse viewpoints of authors in the vanguard of theoretical discussions and curatorial practices, mapping out the multiplicity of endeavours to reform and transform research in relation to the art museum. From new theoretical models and specific forms of practice-based investigation and knowledge production, to the potential for change by the very dynamics of research, it shows that the concept of the curatorial is constantly shifting.

L’exercice est simple : les photographes sont invités à chercher dans leur collection personnelle l’image qui répondra à une autre image, à tour de rôle, dans une version photographique du célèbre cadavre exquis, pour embarquer le visiteur-lecteur en voyage dans un paysage imaginaire et sans limites. Une seule règle régit la commission : l’équité du temps de « parole » et une séquence.

Summary:
The materials used in architecture inform our experience of buildings and spaces through the interplay of aesthetic, social and historic considerations. Both structural and decorative elements have a role to play, whether immediately visceral or only on a subliminal level. Human beings have a relationship to the materials, one that is colored by our values and expectations and not easily set aside. Continued innovations by architects at the vanguard of design have pushed the limits of acceptance - envisioning unique and often surprising structures challenging our preconceptions. Glass, stone, concrete, steel and wood all compete for our attention - their best characteristics presented by the architects featured, successfully showcasing each material's full range of implementation.
