Résumé:
Pour sa 11e édition, Manif d'art – La biennale de Québec s’est inspirée de l’hiver et du sommeil de la terre pour s’intéresser à celui des humains et explorer les nuances multiples de l’éveil. Moments de latence, de transition, de pause, la saison froide et le sommeil ont en commun de suspendre la productivité, et de résister aux principes de l’exploitation des corps et des ressources. De ces alternances quotidiennes ou saisonnières, où les différentes espèces et leur environnement peuvent entrer en correspondance, dépendent la régénération du vivant, et aussi l’écoute, l’attention portée à la connaissance de soi et aux interactions avec d’autres formes de vie. Parce qu’il libère des forces intérieures incontrôlées et parfois décisives, parce qu’il altère nos réflexes et modifie nos perceptions, le sommeil a la capacité de modifier notre appréhension du monde.

Résumé:
It was at Black Mountain College that Merce Cunningham formed his dance company, John Cage staged his first "happening," and Buckminster Fuller built his first dome. Although it lasted only twenty-four years (1933-1957) and enrolled fewer than 1,200 students, Black Mountain College launched a remarkable number of the artists who spearheaded the avant-garde in America of the 1960s. The faculty included such diverse talents as Anni and Josef Albers, Eric Bentley, Ilya Bolotowsky, Robert Creeley, Willem de Kooning, Robert Duncan, Lyonel Feininger, Paul Goodman, Walter Gropius, Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell, and Charles Olson. Among the students were Ruth Asawa, John Chamberlain, Francine du Plessix Gray, Kenneth Noland, Arthur Penn, Robert Rauschenberg, Kenneth Snelson, Cy Twombly, Stan Vanderbeek, and Jose Yglesias. In this definitive account of the arts at Black Mountain College, back in print after many years, Mary Emma Harris describes a unique educational experiment and the artists and writers who conducted it. She replaces the myth of the college as a haphazardly conceived venture with a portrait of a consciously directed liberal arts school that grew out of the progressive education movement. Proceeding chronologically through the four major periods of the college’s history, Harris covers every aspect of its extraordinary curriculum in the visual, literary, and performing arts.

This oversize study of Shanghai's creative culture presents an adventurous mix of architectural models, digital simulations, designer fashion apparel, drawings, runway videos, paintings, photo-works and video installations by the city's leading contemporary artists. Christopher Phillips, curator at the International Center of Photography in New York and editor of this volume, writes in his introduction, Since the early 1990s, Shanghai has been at the forefront of China's historic national resurgence. During that time, it has become one of the world's most frenetic and fascinating cities. With a population now approaching 20 million, it is an urban colossus--China's largest and most densely populated city.

Résumé:
The San Francisco Bay Area's legendary late-1960s counterculture - which included Allen Ginsberg, Bruce Nauman, Stan Brakhage, Yvonne Rainer and The Grateful Dead, as well as plentiful psychedelic drugs, free love, bell-bottoms, dashikis, daisies and radical leftist politics - ushered in wave after wave of experiments in dance, art, literature, music and film. As Jack Kerouac wrote in his 1957 masterpiece, On the Road, "The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..." This engaging documentary volume, which accompanies a late 2008 exhibition at Germany's Museum Ludwig, Cologne, examines the cultural repercussions of the creative output during the pivotal years spanning from 1955 to 1968, examining the ways in which they are still reverberating today.
