Summary:
"No Longer Innocent: Book Art in America : 1960–1980" is the first history to trace the emergence of the artist's book in the U.S. during the 1960s and 1970s. This history takes a inclusive view of the varied field of book art and redresses the sporadic or confused acknowledgment from the art world that has long marginalized the artist's book. The book identifies European precursors of these kinds of artists' books, then quickly moves to America with the development of artists and books and non-profit organization. "No Longer Innocent" also addresses the ways book art affected and responded to art movements, such as Pop, Fluxus, or Conceptualism.

Logotopia explores the library, or 'word place,' as both a concept and a built form through four distinct categories- the Universal Library, the National Library, the Public Library and the Private Library. Logotopia also provides a glimpse into the future of the library in the information age, as well as the changing image of the libarian in pop culture and as cyber avatar.

Summary:
The British artist Spartacus Chetwynd (*1973, lives and works in London) is known for her baroque and surreal performances which, with great humor, bring together multiple image quotations from art history and pop culture. In the tradition of the grotesque she draws on elements from Giotto frescoes, characters from works by Hieronymus Bosch, or Yves Kleins "Anthropometries" (1960) together with heavy metal musicians, Michael Jacksons music video "Thriller," or the 1980s television series "The Hulk," and creates a unified whole. As well as performances, Chetwynd, who graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in painting, produced a series small canvases under the title "Bat Opera" (2004/2005), which also present quotations from pop culture, but in addition feature more romantic borrowings.

Summary:
Dans les années 1950 et jusqu’à la fin des années 1960, la science-fiction a joué, pour nombre d’artistes et de théoriciens anglais et américains, tant au plan iconographique qu’au plan méthodologique, un rôle stratégique : celui d’un véritable objet régulateur utilisé pour déplacer l’activité artistique loin de ses coordonnées conventionnelles. Dans cette entreprise, Eduardo Paolozzi côtoie Reyner Banham, Robert Smithson ou James Graham Ballard, Peter Hutchinson voisine avec Lawrence Alloway pour explorer ce que ce dernier a appelé « le front élargi de la culture » qui devient ici un ensemble d’images et d’idées rétrocédant en deçà du pop art, là où la subculture se fait relais d’invention. Passer l’art novateur au filtre de la SF, c’est par conséquent, pour les créateurs et les penseurs de l’époque mettant en œuvre cette opération théorique et plastique, ébranler radicalement les cadres d’une esthétique dominante — le formalisme — dont ils auront été les critiques en acte. Il en résulte notamment une révision des notions de passé, de présent et de futur dont Ballard, cet « anticipateur qui ne croit pas en l’avenir » comme il est dit dans l’ouvrage, est le fer de lance. Ce livre propose les pièces de ce dossier crucial pour la compréhension de l’art actuel.
