L'univers Playboy
$41.00
(available in store)
Summary:
Né en 1926, Hugh Hefner est à l'origine du magazine Playboy et de sa compagne indissociable : la playmate. Pourtant, en dépit d'un tirage centuplé entre 1953 et 1973, il faut se défaire de ce storytelling de banal self-made-man. Car à mi-chemin de Walt Disney et d'Albert R. Broccoli (le principal producteur des films de James Bond), Hefner est d'abord un authentique(...)

Summary:
Né en 1926, Hugh Hefner est à l'origine du magazine Playboy et de sa compagne indissociable : la playmate. Pourtant, en dépit d'un tirage centuplé entre 1953 et 1973, il faut se défaire de ce storytelling de banal self-made-man. Car à mi-chemin de Walt Disney et d'Albert R. Broccoli (le principal producteur des films de James Bond), Hefner est d'abord un authentique créateur d'univers. Sexy pour les uns, sexiste pour les autres, l'excentricité érotique de ses penthouses cache en réalité une cosmétique bien plus vaste. Avec son jet privé Big Bunny, ses hôtesses, ses clubs, ses Manoirs Est et Ouest, sa Grotte, son zoo, son lit connecté et ses filiales multimédias, Hefner a finalement inventé un monde illusoire à l'image de l'Amérique : le sien.

Summary:
Many consider Barry Schwabsky to be the critic on painting today, even if he does write copiously on other art forms,” write editors Rob Colvin and Sherman Sam in their foreword to this selection of Schwabsky's writings. Written since the turn of the millennium, the texts in 'The Oberver Effect' include meditations on the broader context of painting today alongside reflections on such well-known American painters as Alex Katz, Kerry James Marshall, Nicole Eisenman, and Dana Schutz, as well as practitioners from Europe and beyond?Bernard Frize, Tal R, and Ha Chonghyun among them. As Colvin and Sam point out, the book “documents a dialogue between abstraction and the image” in which “images serve less to represent their described subject than to articulate the sort of painting each one desires to be.

Summary:
In 1939 the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation opened its first gallery space—the Museum of Non-Objective Painting—in a former Manhattan automobile showroom on East 54th Street. Seventy-five years later, the Guggenheim Foundation operates museums in New York, Venice, Bilbao, and soon, Abu Dhabi. Until relatively recently, additional Guggenheims could be found in Berlin, Las Vegas, and downtown New York. Designed by some of the world’s most prominent architects, these museums have often been distinguished as much by their architecture as by the art displayed within. They have also sparked debates ranging from the intrusiveness of architecture in an art museum to the ability of a single building to transform an entire city. This new issue of CLOG will critically examine the past, present, and future architectural impact of this global institution.

Summary:
Published to accompany the exhibition Italian Futurism, 1909–1944: Reconstructing the Universe opening at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 2014, this catalogue considerably advances the scholarship and understanding of an influential yet little-known twentieth- century artistic movement. This publication examines the historical sweep of Futurism from its inception with F.T. Marinetti’s manifesto in 1909 through the movement’s demise at the end of World War II. Presenting over 300 works created between 1909 and 1944, by artists, writers, designers and composers such as Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Anton Giulio Bragaglia, Fortunato Depero, Gerardo Dottori, Marinetti, Ivo Pannaggi, Rosa Rosà, Luigi Russolo, Tato and many others, this publication encompasses not only painting and sculpture, but also architecture, design, ceramics, fashion, film, photography, advertising, free-form poetry, publications, music, theater and performance.

Summary:
"Praxis 8, re:programming" reflects upon the complex, ambiguous and ultimately paradoxical set of ideas denoted by the term program. The elusive definition of program is not only because of its complex history but more importantly because of its continuous redefinition in contemporary architectural practice. A broader shift in the term program, with the emergence of computer culture, has empowered architects to see what was traditionally considered a given, as something that can be reprogrammed at will.

Summary:
''Duchamp-isms'' is a selection of illuminating quotations from Marcel Duchamp (1887–1968), one of the most important figures in the history of modern art. A painter, sculptor, writer, and chess player, Duchamp changed the very definition of art with his “readymades”—everyday objects such as a bicycle wheel or bottle rack that he titled, signed, and presented as art. He provoked critics and the public with works such as the Cubist-Futurist painting ''Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2'' (1912) and ''Fountain'' (1917), a readymade composed of a men’s urinal signed “R. Mutt.” Prizing the intellectual over the aesthetic, Duchamp inspired later movements like Minimalism, Conceptualism, and Pop Art. Delightful and witty, ''Duchamp-isms'' offers rich insights into the mind of a true icon of modern art.
