Summary:
As the American environmental movement emerged in the 1960s and 1970s, ecological perspectives also emerged in art. But ecological artworks were not limited to conventional understandings of environmental art as something that had to be located outdoors or made of organic materials. Created in a range of media, they reflected a widespread reconceptualization of the(...)

Summary:
As the American environmental movement emerged in the 1960s and 1970s, ecological perspectives also emerged in art. But ecological artworks were not limited to conventional understandings of environmental art as something that had to be located outdoors or made of organic materials. Created in a range of media, they reflected a widespread reconceptualization of the material world and a sense of the interconnectedness of all things. In this book, James Nisbet investigates the many levels of intersection between ecology and art in the 1960s and 1970s, examining a series of works that served as sensory interfaces to ecological concepts and reflected the shifting notions of ecology during the period.

Summary:
During the 1970s, the National Endowment for the Arts Photography Surveys granted money to photograph American cities at the bicentennial and years that followed. In “Through the Lens of the City: NEA Photography Surveys of the 1970s”, Mark Rice brings to light this long-neglected photographic endeavour. From 1976 to 1981, the NEA supported more than seventy projects(...)

Summary:
During the 1970s, the National Endowment for the Arts Photography Surveys granted money to photograph American cities at the bicentennial and years that followed. In “Through the Lens of the City: NEA Photography Surveys of the 1970s”, Mark Rice brings to light this long-neglected photographic endeavour. From 1976 to 1981, the NEA supported more than seventy projects that examined a wide range of people and places in America. Artists involved included such well known photographers as Bruce Davidson, Lee Friedlander, and Joel Meyerowitz and many photographers who became widely known after their work with the surveys, such as Robert Adams, Joe Deal, Terry Evans, and Wendy Ewald. Rice argues that the NEA Photographic Surveys drew from two wells: a widespread sense of nostalgia and an intense public interest in photography. Looking at the works from eight key cities-Atlanta, Buffalo, Durham, East Baltimore, Galveston, Long Beach, Los Angeles, and Venice-the book uncovers marked differences as well as startling similarities in the concerns manifested by different photographers in far-flung places. Although the surveys are interesting both for their artistic merits and for their place in the history of American photography, they are equally important as a documentation of bicentennial-era America and a close examination of American cities. A major shift in the ideals of civil engineering and urban planning was underway in the 1970s. At the same time, ideas and theories about photography were changing along with our notions of what the city could and should be. These surveys, capturing American cities in a fascinating period of flux, show us American photographers matching artistry to subject matter in new and exciting ways.

Du célèbre Club des Gaffeurs créé dans les années 1970 à la mystérieuse amstellodamoisitude, en passant par le ahah français et le haha anglais, ou encore le hodja Nasreddin, il traque la stupidité sous toutes ses formes à travers les contes de fées, les dessins animés, les jardins paysagers, les oeuvres de science-fiction, la littérature, la peinture, la politique, la religion, les théories les plus sérieusement délirantes et... l'intelligence. Résultat : ce livre-ci, qui montre que la stupidité se manifeste partout, en chaque individu, depuis toujours, et qu'elle pourrait bien être la marque de la grandeur de l'homme.

Summary:
Des futuristes des années 1910 aux réductionnistes à l’amorce des années 2000, l’histoire de la musique du vingtième siècle (et du vingt-et-unième naissant) aura été marquée par l’idée d’expérimentation. Celle-ci, et pas seulement dans l’avant-garde, paraît s’être exprimée dans tous les domaines apparus alors, qu’il s’agisse entre autres de la musique électroacoustique, du jazz (quand celui-ci s’est dit « free » par exemple) ou du rock (qu’il ait été « kraut » dans les années 1970 en Allemagne, « en opposition » au milieu des mêmes années en Europe, ou encore « bruitiste » au Japon dans les années 1990). Comme si la musique, quand elle souhaite échapper à l’intimidation dominante, devait perpétuellement s’inventer afin de continuer à être. Voilà l’histoire que raconte cette anthologie, au travers d’indomptables réfractaires à toute forme d’académisme.
