The resulting vibrant, boisterous, and gently satirical collage, named simply The Americans, depicted the diversity of modern life through Steinberg’s eyes—from the small town to the big city, from the drugstore counter to the baseball diamond, from cocktail party sophisticates to middle American farmers.

Résumé:
Combining new biographical material with archival research, Megan R. Luke surveys Schwitters’s experiments in shaping space and the development of his Merzbau, describing his haphazard studios in Scandinavia and the United Kingdom and the smaller, quieter pieces he created there. She makes a case for the enormous relevance of Schwitters’s aesthetic concerns to contemporary artists, arguing that his later work provides a guide to new narratives about modernism in the visual arts. These pieces, she shows, were born of artistic exchange and shaped by his rootless life after exile, and they offer a new way of thinking about the history of art that privileges itinerancy over identity and the critical power of humorous inversion over unambiguous communication.

Résumé:
Ce livre est une rencontre entre une artiste en art visuel et deux critiques d’art, amies de longue date, qui ont l’habitude d’écrire à quatre mains. L’ouvrage approfondi la découverte de l’œuvre de La Perrière M. en explorant d’une façon ouverte et poétique l’écriture partagée et les images. En parcourant plus d’une décennie de la pratique du dessin de Véronique La Perrière M., et de sa recherche au travers d’autres médiums comme la vidéo et la photographie, Claire Caland et Émilie Granjon ont souhaité tracer une invitation au voyage. Ici les mots dialoguent avec la trajectoire créative de l’artiste, ouvrent des pistes de réflexion et créent des liens avec les mondes de la littérature, de la mythologie et de l’histoire de l’art. Prenant une forme plus rhizomatique que linéaire, le lecteur est invité à parcourir ce livre, dans l’ordre ou dans le désordre, en arpentant trois territoires de pensée. Entremêlant la chronologique de production des œuvres, le triptyque « Miroirs », « Méthamorphose », et « Monde » tissent des toiles d’associations. Par le voyage des mots vers l’œuvre, le lecteur est convié à pénétrer dans l’univers délicat et surréel de l’artiste.

Résumé:
Pièce majeure de la collection du MAMCO de Genève, Open House, créée à l'origine à SoHo (New York) durant le printemps 1972, est la seule œuvre de grande dimension de l'artiste américain Gordon Matta-Clark (1943-1978) conservée par une institution. Il s'agit d'un container à l'intérieur duquel a été construit un labyrinthe fait de portes et de cloisons en bois récupérées. Véritable manifeste esthétique, cette construction de fortune cristallise bien des prises de position assumées par son créateur, tant dans ses relations avec la sculpture que dans ses rapports critiques à l'architecture. Elle est ici étudiée pour la première fois par trois auteur-e-s, Sophie Costes, Thierry Davila et Lydia Yee, qui en restituent toute la richesse et la complexité. Une façon de réaffirmer l'importance de la figure de Gordon Matta-Clark pour l'art des XXe et XXIe siècles.

Résumé:
This book investigates Al Taylor’s drawings, which numbered over five thousand at the time of his death. It includes a chronological survey of Taylor’s drawings from the mid-1970s to the late 1990s, highlighting the combination of technical refinement, humor, and sensuousness that characterizes his works on paper. Reproductions of the works, which were inspired by such ordinary things as tin cans, pet s tains, and broomsticks, reveal the drawings’ minute details, nuanced shading, and playfully agile pencil lines. Texts explore how the rich and complex visual sensibilities of Taylor’s drawings resonate with that of late Renaissance and Baroque Old Masters. The book also examines Taylor’s innovative approach to process and materials, such as photocopier toner, with its intense black, and the extreme white of correction fluid.

Résumé:
This book presents an unprecedented visual survey of the living and working spaces of the artist Donald Judd in New York and Texas. Filled with newly commissioned and previously unpublished archival photographs alongside five essays by the artist, this book provides an opportunity to explore Judd’s personal spaces, which are a crucial part of this revered artist’s oeuvre. From a 19th-century cast-iron building in Manhattan to an extensive ranch in the mountains of western Texas, this book details the interiors, exteriors, and lands surrounding the buildings that comprise Judd’s extant living and working spaces. Readers will discover how Judd developed the concept of permanent installation at Spring Street in New York City, with artworks, furniture, and decorative objects striking a balance between the building’s historic qualities and his own architectural innovations. His buildings in Marfa, Texas, demonstrate how Judd reiterated his concept of integrative living on a larger scale, extending to the reaches of the Chinati Mountains at Ayala de Chinati, his 33,000-acre ranch south of the town. Each of the spaces was thoroughly considered by Judd with resolute attention to function and design. From furniture to utilitarian structures that Judd designed himself, these residences reflect Judd’s consistent aesthetic. His spaces underscore his deep interest in the preservation of buildings and his deliberate interventions within existing architecture.
