Summary:
"Art monster" takes readers to the margins of the professional art world, populated by unseen artists who make a living working behind the scenes in galleries and museums while making their own art to little acclaim. Writing in a style that is by turns direct and poetic, personal and lyrical, Marin Kosut reflects on the experience of dedicating your life to art and how the art world can crush you. She examines the push toward professionalization, the devaluing of artistic labor, and the devastating effects of gentrification on cultural life. Her nonlinear essays are linked by central themes—community, nostalgia, precarity, alienation, estrangement—that punctuate working artists’ lives. At once ethnography, memoir, tirade, and love letter, "Art monster" is a street-level meditation on the predicament of artists in the late capitalist metropolis.

Sa trajectoire contredit les préventions qui associent les artisans à la préservation des traditions, au travail manuel ou au rejet des innovations. Elle le montre au contraire à la recherche de perfectionnements, usant de son savoir de menuisier, autant que de la culture tirée de sa fréquentation des cercles intellectuels, pour imaginer de nouvelles combinaisons architectoniques. De l’hybridité du savoir de Boileau, où s’entremêlent connaissances pratiques et théoriques, naît un rapport original et singulier à la question du progrès.

Une singulière « beauté défensive » émane des voies rayonnant à partir de lui, rempart contre l’Histoire et ses troubles. Le 14 juillet 1789 débuta par l’invasion des Invalides : comment, de nos jours, s’imaginer une émeute sous des cieux si protégés ? Comment ne pas se l’imaginer, se demande au contraire Emmanuel Pernoud dans cette radiographie intime d’un quartier parisien.

Summary:
In this classic essay, renowned art historian and pioneering feminist Linda Nochlin explores how, from the late 18th century, fragmented, mutilated and fetishized representations of the human body came to constitute a distinctively modern view of the world. The work of an original thinker at the height of her powers, it remains a thought-provoking and compelling read.

Summary:
Since Hamas’s attack on Israel last October 7, the term "settler colonialism" has become central to public debate in the United States. A concept new to most Americans, but already established and influential in academic circles, settler colonialism is shaping the way many people think about the history of the United States, Israel and Palestine, and a host of political issues. This short book is the first to examine settler colonialism critically for a general readership. By critiquing the most important writers, texts, and ideas in the field, Adam Kirsch shows how the concept emerged in the context of North American and Australian history and how it is being applied to Israel. He examines the sources of its appeal, which, he argues, are spiritual as much as political; how it works to delegitimize nations; and why it has the potential to turn indignation at past injustices into a source of new injustices today. A compact and accessible introduction, rich with historical detail, the book will speak to readers interested in the Middle East, American history, and today’s most urgent cultural-political debates

Summary:
The ways we encounter contemporary art and performance is changing. Installations brim with archival documents. Dances stretch for weeks. Performances last a minute. Exhibitions are spread out over thirty venues. There are endless artworks about mid-century architecture and design. How are we expected to engage with today's diverse practise? Is the old model of close-looking still the ideal, or has it given way to browsing, skimming, and sampling? Across four essays, art historian and critic Claire Bishop identifies trends in contemporary practice - research-based installations, performance exhibitions, interventions, and invocations of modernist architecture - and their challenges to traditional modes of attention. Charting a critical path through the last three decades, Bishop pinpoints how spectatorship and visual literacy are evolving under the pressures of digital technology.
