Figure originale des métiers de l’urbanisme et de l’architecture, Simon Teyssou mène, à l’écart des grandes agglomérations, une démarche expérimentale dont les méthodes et les objectifs s’inscrivent au plus juste dans les priorités d’aujourd’hui. Avec le Cantal comme lieu-racine, l’actuel directeur de l’École nationale supérieure d’architecture de Clermont-Ferrand intègre de fait, dans sa pédagogie comme dans sa pratique, les impératifs écologiques et économiques d’un avenir vivable auquel, tous, nous aspirons. Recours aux ressources locales, préservation de l’existant, recherche de l’efficacité dans les relations entre acteurs… tels sont les outils qu’il met en œuvre dans le contexte contraint d’une ruralité aux moyens techniques et financiers des plus modestes.

Summary:
In "Queer forms," Ramzi Fawaz explores how the central values of 1970s movements for women’s and gay liberation-- including consciousness-raising, separatism, and coming out of the closet?were translated into a range of American popular culture forms. Throughout this period, feminist and gay activists fought social and political battles to expand, transform, or wholly explode definitions of so-called "normal" gender and sexuality. In doing so, they inspired artists, writers, and filmmakers to invent new ways of formally representing, or giving shape to, non-normative genders and sexualities. This included placing women, queers, and gender outlaws of all stripes into exhilarating new environments?from the streets of an increasingly gay San Francisco to a post-apocalyptic commune, from an Upper East Side New York City apartment to an all-female version of Earth-- and finding new ways to formally render queer genders and sexualities by articulating them to figures, outlines, or icons that could be imagined in the mind’s eye and interpreted by diverse publics.

« Françoise Sullivan. Une ligne imaginaire / An Imaginary Line prend le relais du catalogue d’exposition Françoise Sullivan. Trajectoires resplendissantes / Radiant Trajectories (Galerie de l’UQAM, 2017) pour fédérer les connaissances récemment mises à jour et les contextualiser dans le sens d’une interaction plus définie entre le développement de la pensée de l’artiste et son corpus des années 1970. Tel un récit qui s’incarne dans les lieux où a vécu Sullivan, en particulier l’Italie, l’ouvrage s’intéresse particulièrement à son travail lié à l’art conceptuel et ancré dans la photographie, le film et les actions performatives. »

Summary:
For "Breaking protocol", transdisciplinary artist Maria Hupfield embarked on a research project on the protocols of Indigenous performance—tracing Indigenous knowledge systems, land-preservation practices and feminist scholarship to illuminate strategies for enacting refusal within decolonial frameworks. The book draws from Hupfield’s "Coffee Break"—a series of conversations held over Zoom during the pandemic, in which Hupfield invited international Indigenous performance artists to discuss their work (from dance to stand-up comedy), who in turn invited other artists to join the conversations. Building on these exchanges, "Breaking protocol" asks what we can learn from Indigenous, place-based artistic modes of making and practice to open spaces for reciprocity and multiplicity.

Summary:
This book features innovative and productive responses, in the form of architectural design and thinking, to the shift in Japan’s social condition under demographic changes that are evident in regional cities. These responses also demonstrate the new wave of architectural practice in Japan, focused on the challenges of degrowth. The shrinking and aging of the population is exacerbating the social decline in the regional cities of Japan. While excluded from the market-driven metropolitan areas, architects of the young generation are beginning to build ways of revitalizing regional cities through innovative design or new ways of practicing. This book features works by seven named or unnamed younger architects in Japan that preempt architectural responses to the post-growth condition, a gripping essay by community designer Ryo Yamazaki, and a captivating photo documentation by Kenta Hasegawa. Keynote essay by Toyo Ito.
