Summary:
Contrairement à la plus grande partie des terrains de jeux ou de sports, les différents espaces fabriqués pour le skateboard ne sont jamais abstraits. La majorité des skateparks actuels, avec leurs mélanges de courbes, de plans inclinés et de volumes parallélépipédiques, synthétisent l’espace d’origine du skateboard, l’océan, et son lieu de naissance, la ville moderne.

Summary:
Contrairement à la plus grande partie des terrains de jeux ou de sports, les différents espaces fabriqués pour le skateboard ne sont jamais abstraits. La majorité des skateparks actuels, avec leurs mélanges de courbes, de plans inclinés et de volumes parallélépipédiques, synthétisent l’espace d’origine du skateboard, l’océan, et son lieu de naissance, la ville moderne. Accompagné de nombreux documents photographiques, ce texte est une visite guidée des espaces du skateboard. L’auteur en dresse une sorte de typologie formelle tout en constituant son archéologie, des appareils de mécanique galiléenne à l’histoire de la sculpture minimaliste dont les skateurs seraient les héritiers.

'Polarizer' presents a new body of work that continues to address an interest in mystery, passage and a shift in perception. Using a dizzying variety of found and constructed objects, Roy-Bois invites the viewer on an odyssey through murky corridors punctuated by moments of discovery, reverie and radiance. Originally from Québec, the artist now lives in Vancouver. Co-published with the Robert Mclaughlin Gallery and Rodman hall Arts Centre.

Summary:
The Only Female Fool is how Isa Genzken describes herself in the self-chosen title of her exhibition at the Kunsthalle Wien. This statement is typical of the fluid boundaries between deep seriousness and the exuberant, eccentric spirit that pervades her work. Genzken’s artistic practice is characterized by a wide spectrum of media and forms, although her roots in sculpture always remain visible. The exhibition and catalogue focus on specific aspects of her oeuvre, including the mirror motif, the examination of architecture, and space as a social sphere; where early works are juxtaposed with series from later creative periods

Summary:
Erik Göngrich is a Berlin-based artist who works with sculpture, drawing, photography, and other media. His interest lies in architecture and design, in how things are made and why, and in interactions with places. He therefore fills this book with numerous drawings, sketches and full-colour photographs, all of which revolve around the topic of the so-called misunderstanding of Modernism and how urban settings and ideals can be put back on track through effective sculptural or monumental transformations of public space. Part manifesto, part research project, this book presents a fascinating re-imagination of Modernism’s failed and dilapidated legacy.

Summary:
Donald Judd (1928-1994) is one of the most influential American artists of the postwar era. Beginning in the 1960s, he developed new ideas about art--in both his works and writings--that challenged many of modernism's core tenets by resisting the categories of painting and sculpture. Judd described this work as "specific objects." Critics labeled it minimalism. Perhaps because Judd's own critical writings provide a discursive framework for his work, some of the monographic essays on his work are not widely known. This volume collects critical and scholarly writings on Judd, examining his work as both artist and critic.
