Working out of Beirut, they make their own rules for urban art with work that is, in the words of Peter Cook, “unnervingly original.” Projects include groundbreaking work in post-war Beirut and post-Communist Prague, sculptures for the sidewalks of London and Tokyo, a poetic project in Todaiji temple in Nara, and the Sandridge Bridge project on the Yarra River for the opening of the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne in 2006. Their work in the creation of “dream pockets” has grown in importance, given the increasing number of cities that have to add violence and terror to the pressures of urban life.

The work of Banksy is unmistakable, except maybe when it’s squatting inthe Tate or New York’s Metropolitan Museum. Banksy is responsible for decorating the streets, walls, bridges and zoos of towns and cites throughout the world. Witty and subversive, his stencils show monkeys with weapons of mass destruction, policeman with smiley faces, rats with drills and umbrellas.If you look hard enough you’ll find your own. His statements, incitements, ironies and epigrams are by turns intelligent and cheeky comments on everything from the monarchy and capitalism to the war in Iraq and farm animals. His identity remains unknown, but his work is prolific. And now for the first time, he’s putting together the best of his work – old and new in a fully illustrated colour volume.

Trafic routier, nuisances sonores, pollution de l'air, globalisation de l'offre commerciale, cloisonnement des espaces et des usages, 'la plus belle avenue du monde' est contrariée. Ses places et ses jardins, désertés par les Parisiens, doivent aujourd'hui engager leur mutation et permettre à chacun de se réapproprier ce patrimoine exceptionnel. Au-delà des questions urbaines, les enjeux du nouveau régime climatique doivent présider à cette transformation. Les défis sont nombreux : diminuer le nombre et l'intensité des îlots de chaleur, rendre les sols plus perméables ; libérer, unifier et augmenter les espaces verts ; favoriser les mobilités douces ; valoriser le patrimoine existant ; construire sans consommer davantage ; continuer à croître sans aggraver la dette environnementale, inventer de nouveaux types de financements et de partenariats... L'étude ''Champs-Elysées, histoire & perspectives'', menée par l'agence PCA-STREAM à l'initiative du Comité Champs-Elysées, engage la relecture de la construction urbaine et symbolique de ce territoire. Elle en fait le diagnostic au regard des problématiques locales et des enjeux contemporains pour offrir une vision nouvelle, qui s'appuie sur le travail collaboratif d'une large équipe d'experts internationaux - chercheurs, historiens, acteurs économiques et culturels, scientifiques, artistes... Les attendus et calculs démontrent la faisabilité de cette transformation et, par anticipation, la possible évolution des espaces publics et touristiques dans les métropoles de demain.

Barcelona 1000 Graffiti is a photo-essay by Rosa Puig about graffiti in Barcelona, a city that's become a meeting place and 'concrete canvas' for graffitists from all over the world. The wide range of graffiti documented in this work is scattered throughout the city, a cause of astonishment and admiration for some, of concern for the authorities, and of despair for the owners of facades irreverently invaded under cover of darkness. The graffiti collected in this book are found in different areas of Barcelona - from the very central to the most far-flung - and offer very diverse topics and tones - by turns poetic, socially aware, dissenting - while competing with the customary visual pollution of the city and helping to enrich its landscape. The photographs reflect the surprised gaze of their author, at once captivated by 'graphic pieces' that, as she says, she 'would rip off the walls and hang in my house.'

Ce livre offre un regard d’un genre unique sur la vie et l’oeuvre de l’une des figures les plus appréciées et influentes de la scène vibrante de l’art de la rue : Blek le Rat. Célèbres dans le monde entier, les oeuvres de ce pochoiriste parisien ont profondément marqué d’innombrables street artists et n’ont de cesse d’inspirer designers graphiques et publicitaires, notamment dans le domaine de la musique. Des premiers pochoirs représentant des rats bombés sur les murs de Paris aux affiches de la journaliste Florence Aubenas en passant par les portraits de Lady Di ou de Serge Gainsbourg, c’est tout l’art révolutionnaire de Blek le Rat qui est ici montré pour la première fois - soit vingt années de création dans la rue et pour la rue. L’ouvrage présente plus de 300 oeuvres in situ magnifiquement photographiées et propose non seulement la description des techniques utilisées par Blek mais aussi une analyse de la signification de ses créations au pochoir. Acteur omniprésent de la scène de l’art urbain dans des villes aussi cosmopolites que Paris, New York, Barcelone, Buenos Aires, Londres, Taipei, Naples et Berlin, Blek le Rat, à travers ce livre, laisse enfin une trace durable de son travail qui continuera longtemps d’inspirer les amoureux de l’art de la rue.

"Nous proposons des tactiques urbaines pour accompagner les micro-processus locaux dans les milieux urbains où les décisions sont prises au nom d'intérêts économiques privés et de mécanismes politiques centralisés inadaptés aux mobilités territoriales actuelles: globales, informelles, multiculturelles… Nous explorons la réappropriation des espaces urbains délaissés et la création de nouvelles formes d'urbanité par des aménagements réversibles, des pratiques du quotidien, par l'implication des habitants et des usagers en tant que porteurs de différents savoirs faire. Plus accessibles, ces espaces constituent un potentiel d'expérimentation urbaine et d'exploration à rebours de l'accroissement de la densité et du contrôle. Notre démarche consiste à critiquer pour libérer le désir d'agir mais aussi à rassembler des compétences partagées et des dynamiques collaboratives pour aller plus loin. En valorisant la position d'habitant et d'usager comme condition politique nous développons ensemble des outils d'appropriation symbolique des espaces de proximité et nous renforçons le pouvoir de décision et d'action des acteurs de terrain dans la ville. Ces outils incluent des réseaux trans-locaux, processus catalyseurs, architectures nomades, espaces autogérés, plates-formes de production culturelle…" Atelier d'Architecture Autogérée
