The artist’s workplace has always been an idealized utopia as well as the domain of dirty, backbreaking work. Written descriptions, paintings, prints, and even photographs of the artist’s atelier distort as much as they document.

Summary:
The artist’s workplace has always been an idealized utopia as well as the domain of dirty, backbreaking work. Written descriptions, paintings, prints, and even photographs of the artist’s atelier distort as much as they document. This illuminating cultural history of the artist’s studio charts the myth and reality of the creative space from Ancient Greece to the present. Tracing a history that extends far beyond the bohemian, romantic, and renaissance cults of the artist, each chapter focuses on key developments of the studio space as seen in a variety of familiar and unfamiliar images. Mythical and divine makers and some amateurs are included, alongside craftspeople— potters, illuminators, weavers, embroiderers, and architects— along with artists such as Artemisia Gentileschi, Claude Monet, Michelangelo, Rosa Bonheur, and Diego Rivera. Each carefully chosen example places the studio within a cultural and political context, with the aim of correcting the historical imbalance that has distorted the picture by leaving out the many artisans who collaborated with artists. Leading authority James Hall also extends the discussion to the artist’s museum and the artist’s house, as well as the development of portable studios, with sections on ''plein air'' painting and drawing in the East.

Les villes confrontées à l'immigration ont-elles un autre avenir possible que celui, sans issue, d'une ségrégation spatiale chaque jour plus sévère? N'y a-t-il pas d'autre voie pour les métropoles européennes que la dérive vers le modèle américain des « gated communities » et des ghettos ethniques, véritable bombe sociale à retardement? Militant en faveur d'une urbanité plus inclusive et pacifiée, un collectif d'urbanistes et d'architectes engagés livre ici le fruit de ses réflexions et expérimentations menées à Marseille, au cœur de certains des quartiers parmi les plus pauvres et délabrés d'Europe.Sous leur regard dépassionné et vierge de toute stigmatisation, les redoutés « Quartiers Nord?» de la cité phocéenne apparaissent pour ce qu'ils sont : le résultat d'une succession d'erreurs architecturales, urbanistiques et politiques. Et en conséquence, affirment les auteurs, si des solutions existent à la mise à l'écart des migrants et des plus démunis de la ville centre et de ses activités, c'est dans l'intervention architecturale et la révision des règlements urbains qu'il faut les chercher. Inventives, audacieuses, attaquant de front les aménageurs d'une urbanité capitaliste et exclusive, leurs propositions sont d'autant plus stimulantes qu'elles sont simples, efficaces et durables. Et si certaines sont ouvertement utopiques, elles ne le seront jamais plus que celles des architectes modernistes qui, dans les années soixante, ont conçu ces tours et ces barres dans l'idée d'exalter le bien-être de leurs habitants.

Summary:
En proposant un point de vue nouveau sur le monde et la société, la recherche-création s’éloigne de la conception traditionnelle du design, conçu comme pur développement de produits. Tout en dépassant les cadres universitaires de l’histoire, de l’esthétique ou de la sociologie, cette approche innovante ouvre un horizon concret de réflexions sur les enjeux contemporains du design et des disciplines issues des sciences humaines. Elle permet également d’établir un dialogue fertile entre les différents champs de la création. Lysianne Léchot Hirt, qui a largement contribué à théoriser cette approche, envisageait son champ d’investigation comme une matière vivante, profondément ancrée dans le quotidien et nécessitant d’être observée avec le regard, disait-elle, d’une «ethnographe». Ce livre réunit une sélection de ses essais les plus marquants, suivis de plusieurs contributions de personnes ayant oeuvré dans son sillage.

Summary:
Cities, like the people that live in them, are subject to the attention economy. In ''The city authentic,'' author David A. Banks shows how cities are transforming themselves to appeal to modern desires for authentic urban living through the attention-grabbing tactics of social media influencers and reality-TV stars. Blending insightful analysis with pop culture, this engaging study of New York State’s Capital Region is an accessible glimpse into the social phenomena that influence contemporary cities. The rising economic fortunes of cities in the Rust Belt, Banks argues, are due in part to the markers of its previous decay—which translate into signs of urban authenticity on the internet. ''The city authentic'' unpacks the odd connection between digital media and derelict buildings, the consequences of how we think about industry and place, and the political processes that have enabled a new paradigm in urban planning. Mixing urban sociology with media and cultural studies, Banks offers a lively account of how urban life and development are changing in the twenty-first century.

Summary:
From the early days of recreational camping in the late nineteenth century through the multitude of modern camping options available today, ''Making camp'' explores the history and evolution of the popular activity through the lens of its most important and familiar components: the campsite, the campfire, the picnic table, the map, the tent, the sleeping bag, as well as the oft invisible systems for delivering water and managing trash. Find out how early nineteenth century German peasants fashioned rudimentary sleeping bags by burrowing into bags full of leaves for the night. Look back over several millennia to learn about the progression of tents from animal skins, goat's hair, and heavy canvas to featherweight nylon. Learn about the ways in which the skills to build and maintain a campfire have been displaced by the portable gas stove. Pinpoint the details of the essential campground map and its unique place in the camping imagination. Each chapter includes a broad range of visuals to help illustrate the rich history of camping and our collective devotion to it, including drawings, patents, diagrams, sketches, paintings, advertisements, and historical photographs.
