This volume responds to forestry: a mobile industry of logging camps that follow the trees; prices that rise and fall; mills that open and close; communities that boom and bust. In The Mill, artworks are(...)

Summary:
The Mill is the second of three projects to engage the resource industries of Vancouver Island (mining, forestry, and fisheries) through contemporary art and writing. This volume responds to forestry: a mobile industry of logging camps that follow the trees; prices that rise and fall; mills that open and close; communities that boom and bust. In The Mill, artworks are accompanied by a multiplicity of voices, including forestry workers, plant ecologists, and indigenous land stewards. Together, these perspectives chart the cultural and material shifts brought about when trees become commodities. Expanded from two contemporary art exhibitions, Silva Part I: O Horizon and Silva Part II: Booming Grounds, The Mill examines forgotten or under-acknowledged histories, while considering both local sites and forms of cultural expression that surround international forestry practices.

Rien n’a jamais été publié en France sur Sylvia Pankhurst. Sa pensée résonne pourtant aujourd’hui avec une bien plus grande force, une bien plus grande actualité que celle de militantes dont le seul horizon était celui du vote.

Sa pensée résonne pourtant aujourd’hui avec une bien plus grande force, une bien plus grande actualité que celle de militantes dont le seul horizon était celui du vote. Sylvia Pankhurst (1882-1960) est une féministe britannique, fille d'Emmeline Pankhurst aux côtés de laquelle elle a animé le mouvement des suffragettes avant de s'en émanciper, le trouvant trop bourgeois. Elle fait partie des fondatrices du Parti communiste britannique mais en fut expulsée pour « gauchisme ». Féministe et anticolonialiste avant l'heure qui faisait fi des conventions de son époque (se marier), elle appartient au panthéon des femmes révolutionnaires au même titre que ses contemporaines Emma Goldman, Alexandra Kollontaï, Rosa Luxemburg et Clara Zetkin. Figure méconnue dans le monde francophone, ceci est sa première biographie.

En proposant un point de vue nouveau sur le monde et la société, la recherche-création s’éloigne de la conception traditionnelle du design, conçu comme pur développement de produits. Tout en dépassant les cadres universitaires de l’histoire, de l’esthétique ou de la sociologie, cette approche innovante ouvre un horizon concret de réflexions sur les enjeux contemporains du design et des disciplines issues des sciences humaines. Elle permet également d’établir un dialogue fertile entre les différents champs de la création. Lysianne Léchot Hirt, qui a largement contribué à théoriser cette approche, envisageait son champ d’investigation comme une matière vivante, profondément ancrée dans le quotidien et nécessitant d’être observée avec le regard, disait-elle, d’une «ethnographe». Ce livre réunit une sélection de ses essais les plus marquants, suivis de plusieurs contributions de personnes ayant oeuvré dans son sillage.

Summary:
Few figures in nineteenth-century photography remain as elusive and intriguing as John Beasley Greene (1832 1856). Over the course of an exceptionally brief career he created a body of photographs that were publicly admired by his peers and continue to capture the imagination of contemporary audiences. Born in France to an American banker, he made his first expedition to Egypt in 1853, where he photographed ancient Egyptian monuments and is thought to be the first archaeologist to use photography. In these photographs, he positioned his horizon lines with precision, at times placing them so low in the frame that the photograph is nearly all blank sky, or so high that the monuments are almost swallowed up by vast seas of sand. Some of his Egyptian landscapes are so visually spare they appear to be of nothing at all.

Summary:
Le terme post-croissance désigne l’entrée dans une ère que nous ne savons pas encore nommer. Les symptômes qui signent la fin d’une époque sont clairs et sans appel : la poursuite de la croissance économique ne constitue plus un projet de société crédible. Toutefois, y renoncer pose aux économistes des défis majeurs qui exigent de reprendre à leur racine les questions dont ils traitent couramment. Ensemble, les neuf chercheurs réunis dans cet ouvrage s’interrogent : quels sont les problèmes majeurs qui surgissent à l’esprit dès lors que l’on abandonne un objectif de croissance continue? Par où passe la transition vers un autre horizon? Quels sont les courants de pensée et les modes de gouvernance susceptibles d’articuler un projet cohérent? Ce livre accessible, instructif et salutaire, nous invite à prendre avec intelligence le tournant économique qui arrive droit devant nous.

Pour briser les évidences et sortir des tabous, l'auteure nous propose de redécouvrir une histoire de la ville moderne, à travers une analyse illustrée de nombreux documents d'époque et de témoignages, afin d'en tirer des enseignements pour l'avenir. Exemples à l'appui, vous découvrirez notamment qu'il suffit de revendiquer la modernité pour qu'elle nous échappe ! Lorsqu'il s'agit de régler des contraintes inhérentes au site, certains principes urbanistiques des années 1950-1970 comme la dalle, semblent alors éminemment d'actualité dans de nombreux projets d'aménagement.

Summary:
La ville est notre horizon à tous, elle est là et il est difficile de la justifier ou même de l'expliquer. Pourtant, les enjeux sociétaux et environnementaux actuels (changements climatiques, désindustrialisation, remise en cause des usages domestiques, nouvelles modalités du travail, etc.) nous poussent à nous intéresser à nos modes de faire et de penser la ville.

Summary:
Photography is fundamentally a time-based medium. The relationships between photography and time are manifold: snapshots are slices of time, time can be directly represented within the image, time can be photographys theme and philosophical horizon, photographic practices develop and change across time. This book brings together the various aspect of time in photography and of photography in time. Its chapters focus on seminal authors (including Fox Talbot, Victor Burgin, and Robert Morris) and genres, with examples ranging from the very first photographic pictures to the most recent uses of photography in and outside art. Given the multifaceted dimensions of the notion of time, the book fosters an interdisciplinary approach, gathering essays by historians of photography as well as by authors with a critical or philosophical background. It shows how some interpretations of photography are indebted to fields that have a great expertise in analyzing time, such as narratology and literature.

Summary:
For the Kosovo Pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennale, artist Flaka Haliti created the installation Speculating on the Blue, reflecting on the meaning of borders, democracy, freedom and mobility. The skeletons of barrier-like objects in the space are a reference to the aesthetics of the concrete walls that are erected between nations as a materialization of conflict.(...)

Summary:
For the Kosovo Pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennale, artist Flaka Haliti created the installation Speculating on the Blue, reflecting on the meaning of borders, democracy, freedom and mobility. The skeletons of barrier-like objects in the space are a reference to the aesthetics of the concrete walls that are erected between nations as a materialization of conflict. Haliti’s installation aims at demilitarizing and decontextualizing this specific aesthetic practice by stripping the columns down to their material essence and juxtaposing them with elements that are by nature resistant to the concept of borders. In this scenario, the horizon and the blue pictorial ground, which directly references the blue-painted barriers in front of the Kosovo UN, create a counter image to the concept of borders as a tool to raise new perspectives. In addition is an artist’s conversation with Markus Miessen and an essay by curator Vanessa Joan Müller.

He documented abandoned steel factories, nuclear reactors, cooling towers, storage containers, or briskly working oil refineries to depict the traces of humans’ effort to survive in modern era. Residential buildings seem tiny in comparison, and the overall scale has obviously shifted. Jang prefers to show us these industrial landscapes in the gray of the dawn, or the red of dusk, by moonlight, in fog or snow; sometimes he shifts a gnarled tree into the foreground, but despite—or perhaps precisely because of—these potentially romantic, idyllic topoi, the viewer senses an uncanny, apocalyptic mood. Large, apparently deserted industrial plants dominate the horizon, yet moving backhoes, cranes, and conveyor belts give the impression they might have a hazardous life of their own.
