Notizie dei professori del disegno da Cimabue in qua : per le quali si dimostra come, e per chi le belle arti di pittura, scultura e architettura, lasciata la rozzezza delle maniere greca e gotica, si siano in questi secoli ridotte all' antica loro perfezione : opera distinta in secol e decennali / di Filippo Baldinucci.

Summary:
Dessins métaphoriques sur la bureaucratie et son fonctionnement parfois absurde, livres «mode d’emploi» sur l’architecture des années 1930, détournements humoristiques de l’usage des armes militaires, ode au hasard et à l’imprévisible: l’artiste anglais William Heath Robinson (1872-1944) dresse une caricature poétique et fantaisiste de la société britannique de la première moitié du 20e siècle. C’est durant la Première Guerre mondiale que la renommée de W.H. Robinson s’établit, avec la publication de multiples dessins humoristiques dans des magazines populaires. Ce sont là les premières apparitions de ce qui fera sa célébrité: des machines improbables dont les mécanismes, d’une complexité folle, sont élaborés pour atteindre des objectifs ridiculement simples.

The notion of the handmade has shifted from the margins to center stage. Craft’s value is increasingly recognized across creative, economic, social, cultural, and political contexts.

Summary:
The notion of the handmade has shifted from the margins to center stage. Craft’s value is increasingly recognized across creative, economic, social, cultural, and political contexts. Because of its widespread appropriation, and the dissolution of disciplinary boundaries, the meaning of handicrafts is changing. While craft’s claims of authenticity and anti-consumerism are in question, its role is poised for optimization within the contemporary climate. Amid new economies of making, craft is moving from modern craft to post-craft. Through essays, conversations, and projects by designers, artists, and scholars, the third volume in the EP series examines not only the practice of post-craft but also its mediation and interpretation.

In 1975, a small group of enterprising, discontented members of Quebec's art community posed the question: "What do we know about contemporary art outside of Quebec, in Canada or abroad?

Summary:
In 1975, a small group of enterprising, discontented members of Quebec's art community posed the question: "What do we know about contemporary art outside of Quebec, in Canada or abroad? Do we know what contemporary art exists in Montreal? How does information about art circulate?" By way of an answer, the artistically unconventional and theoretically cutting-edge magazine Parachute was launched, founded by Chantal Pontbriand and France Morin. Artists such as Jeff Wall, Bill Viola, Stan Douglas, Eija-Liisa Ahtila and many others had the first significant critical reception of their work in Parachute. Similarly, figures such as Douglas Crimp, Thomas Crow, Thierry de Duve, Georges Didi-Huberman, Hal Foster, Reesa Greenberg, Serge Guilbaut and Laura Mulvey published highly pertinent essays in the journal early on in their careers. The essays collected in this volume have been selected from the first 25 years of Parachute's publication history, from 1975 to 2000.

Summary:
For the tenth edition of the experimental magazine, a casually unspecific number of individuals were invited to describe their collaborative processes. The exact number is unknown, as contributors likely involved other guests as well in the process, or played multiple roles themselves. The focus is therefore on the behind-the-scenes moments implicit in any given collaboration, such as simultaneous improvisation due to long-distance communication among several people, and reveals experiences, anecdotes, decisions, results, negotiations, and so forth. Contributors include Yair Barelli, James Langdon, Anu Vahtra, Janna Meeus, Triin Tamm and many others.
