Résumé:
This first comprehensive publication on the influential contemporary artist focuses on the experimental nature of Andrea Zittel's signature objects, inhabitable sculptures, and other projects. In her work as an artist, Zittel investigates domestic and urban life in Western societies. Exploring the various aspects of living, the artist designs her own household settings to serve as a test case for her experimental living structures. Her work has provoked debates about the changed meaning of domestic and collective space and the possibilities for new adaptations to urban conditions today. "Andrea Zittel: critical space" includes nearly two hundred reproductions of Zittel's works of art, many of which are published here for the first time. The book includes over one hundred sculptures and drawings, documentation of early work, and recent site-specific work in the Mojave desert of California. With essays that touch upon urbanism, architecture, design, and consumer culture, this catalog offers an extensive analysis of Zittel's contribution to contemporary trends in art and architecture.
Colour after Klein
$53.95

Résumé:
As suggested by the work of Yves Klein, this book is not about colour rules or colour theory; instead it takes pleasure in the oscillation between the aesthetic and the conceptual, materiality and immateriality, the object and the void, purification and mystification, and between erasure and colouring in. Colour is celebrated for its immanence, its quality of being in the(...)

Résumé:
As suggested by the work of Yves Klein, this book is not about colour rules or colour theory; instead it takes pleasure in the oscillation between the aesthetic and the conceptual, materiality and immateriality, the object and the void, purification and mystification, and between erasure and colouring in. Colour is celebrated for its immanence, its quality of being in the world, but also the potential it has to open up a psychic space, a world of lost feeling; with literally the power to take us over, colour us in. "Colour after Klein" explores the significance of colour as it emerges in the work of 20 of some influential artists of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, including Yves Klein, Donald Judd, Bruce Nauman, Louise Bourgeois, Andy Warhol and James Turrell. Featuring an introduction by curator Jane Alison, an essay that explores the place of colour in the work of Yves Klein by art historian Nuit Banai, and profiles of each of the contributing artists, this book provides a new perspective on key works of Modern and contemporary art. Also included in the book are artists' writings on the subject of colour, with pieces by Klein, Judd and Hélio Oiticica. This book accompanies the exhibition "Colour after Klein" at the Barbican Art Gallery, London, 27 May to 11 September 2005.

Résumé:
«Territoires urbains» présente le travail photographique de six artistes qui ont fait de la ville en perpétuel changement leur sujet. À travers une vaste gamme d'intérêts et d'approches, chaque artiste propose une réponse à la question suivante : qu'est-ce-que la photographie documentaire au 21e siècle? Pour cette génération de photographes, la ville n'est pas le sujet de leur enquête, mais plutôt le contexte. Pour ces artistes, la ville évoque les aspects sociaux, politiques et judiciaires de la société, tout en étant un endroit de travail, d'échange et de divertissement. Les artistes expriment ainsi leurs travaux un point de vue particulier sur la réalité urbaine, qu'il s'agisse du territoire physique ou de l'espace social. Artistes participants : Christian Barré, Martin Désilets, Isabelle Hayeur, Emmanuelle Léonard, Pavel Pavlov et Myriam Yates. L'essai est accompagné de textes d'artistes.

Résumé:
Cet ouvrage a été publié à l'occasion de l'exposition Jeppe Heine, à l'espace 315, création contemporaine et prospective, Centre Pompidou, Musée national d'art moderne - Centre de création industrielle, Paris, 15 septembre -14 novembre 2005. Artiste danois, Jeppe Hein crée des objets épurés et géométriques ou des installations discrètes et ludiques dans une continuité de la tradition de la sculpture minimaliste, tout en proposant un contrepoint par la mise en place d'un dialogue incongru entre les oeuvres et le spectateur. Chaque installation évolue en fonction du stimulus qu'elle reçoit du spectateur, ainsi le public provoque-t-il une réaction mais ne peut pas vraiment la maîtriser. Pour sa première exposition parisienne, Jeppe Hein présente un projet spécifique sur le thème du labyrinthe. Le visiteur est sollicité par des sons qu'il découvre au fur et à mesure de ses pérégrinations et crée sa propre oeuvre en parcourant l'installation. A l'image de l'exposition, l'ouvrage se présente comme un parcours dans le dédale des oeuvres de l'artiste, ses travaux d'approche pour cette manifestation et sa façon de croiser le thème du labyrinthe. This book has been published to coincide with the exhibition Jeppe Hein, in the Espace 315, Centre Pompidou, Paris, sept.-nov. 2005.

Résumé:
Firminy is a small French mining town, and is the site of the largest collection of Le Corbusier’s architecture outside of Chandigarh, India. Monumental in scale and civic ambition at its inception, the development at Firminy followed Le Corbusier’s concept of La Ville Radieuse (the Radiant City). The buildings at Firminy were never completed due to local industrial decline, and in recent years have suffered from political manipulation and physical neglect. The current state of the site is documented in Arni Haraldsson’s photographic series from 1999. Using a historically minded and architecturally oriented curiosity, Haraldsson sets these buildings and their modernist utopianism within the frame of the local inhabitants’ conviction of the social and historical value of Corbusier’s life and work.
