Résumé:
In today’s culture of obsession with “organic,” “biodynamic,” and “fair trade,” what does the food landscape actually look like? Chosen for the 15th edition of Document Nederland, a joint award by the Rijksmuseum and NRC Handelsblad newspaper that asks photographers to highlight a current social phenomenon, Henk Wildschut set out to understand contemporary food production in the Netherlands. He immersed himself in modern farming, vegetable breeders and cultivators, stock farms, hatcheries, fish farms, laboratories, inspection bodies and suppliers of abattoir equipment. Already hailed by Martin Parr as one of the best photo books of the year, Food is a must-have for all devoted photo book collectors.

Jean-Pascal Flavien's work involves the design and conception of houses that reconfigure domestic space to produce unorthodox living arrangements. A particular form of thinking gives rise to a physical form of dwelling, and the use of these structures furthers his artistic approach via experiments within the space as well as through written texts, films and other(...)

Résumé:
Jean-Pascal Flavien's work involves the design and conception of houses that reconfigure domestic space to produce unorthodox living arrangements. A particular form of thinking gives rise to a physical form of dwelling, and the use of these structures furthers his artistic approach via experiments within the space as well as through written texts, films and other activities. Thus far, four of the Berlin-based artist s installations have been realized: Viewer (2007), Rio de Janeiro; No Drama House (2009), Berlin; Two Persons House (2010), São Paulo; and Breathing House (2012), Pougues-les-Eaux, France. This catalog, published on the occasion of Flavien's exhibition at the Centre d'art contemporain du Parc Saint-Léger and the Kunstverein Langenhagen, is an arrangement of these independent parts following the development of the artist's most recent houses.

Résumé:
Jake Chapman focuses his malice on the calloused underbelly of literature itself. Fragile amateur novelist Christabel Ludd has a bad case of writer's block, and hires self proclaimed "professionals" to transform her novel into a page-turner: they do so, spinning the tale of Bao Xishun, who saves the lives of some dolphins by using his extremely long arms to fish pieces of(...)

Jake Chapman focuses his malice on the calloused underbelly of literature itself. Fragile amateur novelist Christabel Ludd has a bad case of writer's block, and hires self proclaimed "professionals" to transform her novel into a page-turner: they do so, spinning the tale of Bao Xishun, who saves the lives of some dolphins by using his extremely long arms to fish pieces of plastic flotsam from their stomachs. Working this tale into ever more bizarre incarnations, they finally cause Christabel to despairingly resort to poetry in order to break her block.

Résumé:
Au cours de l’été 1980, Irene F. Whittome finalise un important cycle de travail. Tout le matériel qui se trouvait dans l’atelier est accumulé dans un coin restreint, les murs de briques et les colonnes sont repeints en blanc. L’espace est préparé à la manière dont un peintre apprête sa toile avant de l’enduire de pigments. L’atelier de la rue Saint-Alexandre devient alors le support d’une intervention spécifique qui se transformera pendant près de deux ans : d’octobre 1980 à juillet 1982. Trente ans plus tard, Room 901 fait l’objet d’une réflexion approfondie et d’une réactivation.
