Résumé:
What aesthetic practices have Palestinians been employing throughout their revolutionary anti-colonial tradition, both historically and in contemporary times? How can we read the performative gestures, image-making techniques, and singing replete inPalestine’s streets as ones embedded within a collective psychosocial and material experience and not as arbitrary isolated events? In An Echo in Search of its Shadow, Aesthetics of the Repressed Adam HajYahia and Haitham Haddad formulate an aesthetic theory of revolt by examining anti-colonial praxis. Unfolding through analysis, image-making, and poetics, HajYahia and Haddad assemble a new framework from which to understand dialectics between the visual and the audial, body and soul, form and content.

L’exposition rassemble les œuvres des artistes Maude Arès, Geneviève Chevalier, Hannah Claus, Jim Holyoak, Richard Ibghy & Marilou Lemmens, Fre´de´ric Lavoie, Angela Marsh, Kimberly Orjuela, Taqralik Partridge & Miranda Smitheram. En tentant d’adopter la perspective de l’hirondelle, du mulot ou encore du pissenlit, les œuvres réunies dans cette exposition décentrent notre regard. Elles nous enjoignent à considérer comment le territoire nous accueille et comment nous le partageons avec d’autres espèces, nous invitant à nous engager envers un monde pluriel, solidaire et profondément relationnel. Par des gestes de soin, des approches collaboratives de la création et une attention à l’éthique interspécifique, elles offrent une compréhension étendue de la notion d’hospitalité et nous encouragent à repenser nos manières « d’habiter ». Ensemble, elles explorent la possibilité d’« un monde en commun » où tous les vivants pourraient s’épanouir.

He looks at works by Hogarth, Rousseau, Woolstonecraft, Emerson, Marx, Dewey and Benjamin to show how the modern system maintains its dominance through the assimilation of artists and musicians who resist it, and the distinctions it draws between artists and artisans, and high art and the crafts.

Résumé:
Part flight of fancy, part Star Trek set, part seemingly drug-induced delusion, Globus Cassus is a solution to a global dilemma, which remains the same size while housing an ever-increasing global population. The catalyst for the project as described by its creator, artist Christian Waldvogel: "The rapidly increasing population notice that their planet will soon be too small. The Earth is dismantled to provide building material. This is taken away to create Globus Cassus, a new, much bigger habitat, thought out from scratch." And so begins the story of converting the Earth into a gigantic hollow structure. The project, precisely worked out and described in detail, breaks through the bounds of architecture to continue the story of our great contemporary Utopias. Globus Cassus is the core of the Swiss contribution to the 9th Architecture Biennale in Venice, and this book examines the novel project through a series of drawings, diagrams, and photographs of three-dimensional models.

Résumé:
Ce livre trace un chemin artistique qui mène à une thématique philosophique en prise avec notre réalité. Il parle de la violence, notion qui s’invite tragiquement dans le fil de notre actualité faite de conflits, d’émeutes, de discriminations, de rapports de force. L’œuvre d’art est alors, selon les auteurs, une porte d’entrée dans la réflexion, une fenêtre ouverte sur la discussion. Dans cette argumentation, l’œuvre est bien davantage qu’un marqueur culturel, elle capte l’attention, fait sensation, donne à sentir, ressentir ce qui est à penser, en un mot elle est exemplaire. Ce parcours valorise, en quelques chapitres, plus d’une vingtaine d’œuvres livrées au regard croisé de l’historienne de l’art et du philosophe.

Résumé:
This book is about bodies. Presenting the work of Dutch performance artist Mariken Overdijk, it explores how bodies traverse the familiar surroundings of one’s home or move along the familiar routes of everyday life, but also the relation of bodies to public space. On another level, the book also addresses how artistic research recounts the experiments and experiences, collections and vistas gained by the researcher during the course of their work. It shows that any good (artistic) research also creates futures. Overdijk makes clear that artworks are not singular events, but each creates a possibility that, however minimal, changes lives forever. Foreword by Jeroen Boomgaard.

Résumé:
In process and technique, printmaking is an art of physical contact. From woodcut and engraving to lithography and screenprinting, every print is the record of a contact event: the transfer of an image between surfaces, under pressure, followed by release. Contact reveals how the physical properties of print have their own poetics and politics and provides a new framework for understanding the intelligence and continuing relevance of printmaking today. The seemingly simple physics of printmaking brings with it an array of metamorphoses that give expression to many of the social and conceptual concerns at the heart of modern and contemporary art. Exploring transformations such as reversal, separation, and interference, Jennifer Roberts explores these dynamics in the work of Christiane Baumgartner, David Hammons, Edgar Heap of Birds, Jasper Johns, Corita Kent, Glenn Ligon, Julie Mehretu, Robert Rauschenberg, and many other leading artists who work at the edge of the medium and beyond.
