Summary:
Ce volume, dédié aux expressions de l’art outsider réalisées au Canada, a pour premier objectif d’atteindre et de sensibiliser sur ce thème un public de lecteurs le plus vaste possible. L’ouvrage donne la parole à des artistes qui, jusqu’à une période récente, étaient exclus du monde de l’art traditionnel, leur travail ne se conformant pas aux idéologies des institutions artistiques établies. L’art outsider est le reflet d’un territoire de production culturelle qui donne un sens et une visibilité aux pratiques de création indépendantes de la formation formelle, des mouvements artistiques reconnus et des tendances actuelles. L’art outsider n’existe, dit-on, qu’en raison de l’élitisme culturel et des différences de classe où les marges sont définies par le centre. La marginalisation sociale de ses représentants, souvent due à des problèmes de santé mentale, a conduit à leur exclusion du monde de l’art contemporain. Ce livre, qui invite les spectateurs à renoncer aux mythes et aux stéréotypes sur l’origine de la créativité et à soutenir le travail de créateurs autodidactes s’exprimant de manière unique, affronte les thèmes de la justice sociale, de la diversité et de l’intégration dans le monde de l’art.

Summary:
Bearing witness to the changing economic landscape amid the Cold War, artists in the 1960s created works that critiqued, reshaped, and sometimes reinforced the spirit of capitalism. At a time when currency and finance were becoming ever more abstracted—and the art market increasingly an arena for speculation—artists on both sides of the Atlantic turned to economic themes, often grounded in a human context. ''The artist as economist'' examines artists who approached these issues in critical, imaginative, and humorous ways. Such examples, which author Sophie Cras insightfully situates within their historic economic context, reveal capitalism’s visual dimension. As art and economics grow more entangled, this volume offers a timely consideration of art’s capacity to reflect on and reimagine economic systems.

Summary:
Art of the 1980s oscillated between radical and conservative, capricious and political, socially engaged and art-historically aware. This book chronicles canonical as well as nearly forgotten works of the 1980s, arguing that what has often been dismissed as cynical or ironic should be viewed as a struggle on the part of artists to articulate their needs and desires in an increasingly commodified world. The major developments of the decade - the rise of the commercial art market, the politicization of the AIDS crisis, the increased visibility of women and gay artists and artists of colour, and the ascension of new media - are illuminated in works by Sophie Calle, Nan Goldin, Mike Kelley, Jeff Koons, Sherrie Levine, and Lorna Simpson, among others.

Summary:
Motherhood is a theme that stands at the core of life, but has nevertheless been kept in the private sphere for a long time, haunted by clichés, stigmas and myths. Motherhood has always been seen as trivial, not as a subject for real art. At the same time, artists with a womb have faced the cliché that they had to decide between making art or having a child, as both would(...)

Price:

Summary:
Motherhood is a theme that stands at the core of life, but has nevertheless been kept in the private sphere for a long time, haunted by clichés, stigmas and myths. Motherhood has always been seen as trivial, not as a subject for real art. At the same time, artists with a womb have faced the cliché that they had to decide between making art or having a child, as both would take up all the mother’s time and energy. ''Mothering Myths'' unravels these clichés, stigmas and myths, through the lens of art, and a transhistorical and intersectional perspective, while being very playful and open to many interpretations. It breaks through the perspective of the individual mother figure and makes space for collectivity, different forms of ‘mothering’ and political questions surrounding self-determination. ''Mothering Myths'' presents the emancipatory nature of the artist-mother, the voluntarily childless woman, the non-female mother and the '‘raven mother'’, through concepts such as kinship, revolutionary parenting, womb consciousness and reproductive justice.
