À l'occasion du 160e anniversaire des relations diplomatiques entre la France et le Japon, l'exposition « Fukami, une plongée dans l'esthétique japonaise » a dévoilé, dans l'écrin de l'hôtel Salomon de Rothschild à Paris, une conception inédite du sens de la beauté dans l'empire du Soleil-Levant. Par le dialogue entre œuvres anciennes et créations contemporaines, cet événement a ainsi permis de penser 5 000 ans d'esthétique japonaise sous une perspective nouvelle. Des fondements de la pensée artistique nipponne aux inspirations contemporaines de stylistes et vidéastes, « Fukami » enchante et interroge, surprend et émerveille, dans un dialogue permanent entre les œuvres et les époques.

Summary:
Cooperatives, sharing communities, co-housing in the late 1920s the Bauhaus took a keen interest in the relationship between society and design, the individual and collaborative creation and production. A key figure in this development was architect Hannes Meyer (1889 1954), the second Bauhaus director, whose revolutionary collaborative design process is documented here for the first time. With his appointment in 1928, Meyer brought a change in thinking: from author-architect to collective, from the need for luxury to the needs of the people, playing a key role radically orienting the school s teaching, workshops, its planning and architecture around the idea and needs of the collective until his politically motivated dismissal in 1930. Informative texts by researchers Werner Moller and Astrid Volpert, with introduction by director Claudia Perren, are illustrated with a wonderful array of archival photos of students, performances, furniture and building projects that convey the energy and optimism of the time.

Summary:
In the world of graphics some designers have devoted their entire body of work to one color, sometimes showing it off in all of its full-bodied glory, sometimes stripping it back to its barest essentials.

This book offers a depth of understanding of individual colors that is unprecedented.
