Résumé:
En 1965, Guy Debord dépose le brevet d'un Jeu de la Guerre (dit encore Kliegspiel) qu'il avait imaginé dix ans plus tôt. Eu janvier 1977, il s'associe à Gérard Lebovici pour fonder, à parts égales, une société dont l'objet est la production, la publication et l'exploitation de jeux. Sous la dénomination " Les Jeux stratégiques et historiques ", la société publie simultanément en français et en anglais une Règle du " Jeu de la Guerre ", et fait réaliser par un artisan quatre (ou cinq) exemplaires du jeu, dont la table (45,5 cm x 36,5 cm) et les pièces ciselées sont en cuivre argenté. C'est en 1987, après la disparition de Gérard Lebovici, que paraîtra, aux éditions qui portaient son nom, Le Jeu de la Guerre, présenté sous la forme d'un " relevé des positions successives de toutes les forces au cours d'une partie ". Un modèle rudimentaire du jeu avait été diffusé dans le même temps. En 1991, par décision de Guy Debord, Le Jeu de la Guerre est mis au pilon avec l'ensemble de ses autres livres publiés. Nous le faisons reparaître dans une nouvelle édition revue, corrigée et augmentée de documents retrouvés, susceptibles d'éclairer le lecteur sur le fondement et la nature spécifique de ce jeu tel que l'a conçu et réalisé son inventeur Guy Debord.

An early progenitor of the artist's book genre, Warja Honegger-Lavater was born in Winterthur, Switzerland in 1913. She worked as an illustrator for the magazine Jeunesse from 1944-1958, and moved to New York shortly thereafter where she began a wonderful series of artist's books. These books were published between 1962 and 1971, an exceptionally ripe time for artists to turn to the bookform, a time when the most often cited "first" artist's book also appeared, Twentysix Gasoline Stations (1962) by Ed Ruscha. Nieves is delighted to release this previously unpublished collection of 60 ink pictograms, drawn between 1976 and 1996, originally printed individually as A2 plane prints.

Résumé:
Published to accompany the 2008 Deutsche Guggenheim survey curated by American artist Collier Schorr, Freeway Balconies unfolds more as an artist's book than a straightforward exhibition catalogue. Borrowing from Allen Ginsberg, the title refers to the meeting place of spectacle and voyeurism in American culture--expressed here through Schorr's idiosyncratic mix of 19 emerging and established artists, including Sharon Hayes, Bruce Nauman, Francesca Woodman, Rashawn Griffin and Richard Prince, among others. Her choices, arranged around selections of her own work, reveal her probing interest in slippages of identity and identification, cultural memory and forgetting and the ways in which artistic action and production engage these issues.

Résumé:
Published on the occasion of his fifth solo exhibition at David Zwirner gallery in New York, Even the Ghost of the Past presents new work by the influential young Canadian artist Marcel Dzama--including a DVD of original short films. A favorite among the art, literary and indie music scenes, Dzama is best known for his figurative compositions of pen and watercolor on manila-colored paper. Bearing a characteristic palette of muted browns, greys, greens and reds, Dzama's drawings are populated by an expansive cast of human, animal and hybrid characters. In recent years, Dzama has extended his practice to include work in multiple media. A recent exhibition, for example, transformed the gallery into an odeum of imagination, replete with drawings, sculptures, dioramas and films. Featuring an interview with the artist by filmmaker Spike Jonze and designed in collaboration with the artist as two hardback books twin-bound into one with a custom drawing on the cover, Even the Ghost of the Past is destined to become an instant collector's item.

Résumé:
Depuis le milieu des années 1990, Denis Darzacq développe un travail personnel. De la photographie de presse qui fut, comme pour d’autres photographes français de sa génération, le berceau de sa pratique artistique, il conserve avant tout un regard aiguisé sur la société contemporaine et une méthode. Denis Darzacq a acquis la conviction qu’une image construite pouvait servir son analyse de la société avec plus d’efficacité. Depuis 2003, il a recours à des mises en scène qui reposent toutes sur le principe de la « disruption » (méthodologie dynamique tournée vers la création). Par leur état ou leur pose, les corps mis en scène bouleversent l’ordre établi, sans jamais faire basculer l’image dans le spectaculaire. L’ouvrage présente des photographies extraites de séries majeures du photographe, notamment « La chute et Hyper » qui opposent deux réalités sans manipulations numériques

Résumé:
Ai Weiwei is one of the world’s most acclaimed artists and dissidents. This book presents him in conversation with theorists, critics, journalists, and curators about key moments in his life and career. These wide-ranging conversations flow between topics such as his relationship with China, the meaning of citizenship, moving his studio to Lesbos to be on the front lines of the migrant crisis, how to make art, and technology as a tool for freedom or oppression. Ai opens up about his relationship to his father as a poet and as a dissident forced into hard labor in a small village after the Cultural Revolution. He shares his thoughts on formal education and the importance of finding your own way as an artist. New York- both the city and its people- were formative for Ai Weiwei, and he speaks eloquently about how these experiences continue to influence him. Ai conjures up scenes from his long relationship with the city: dropping out of Parsons School of Design because he couldn’t afford tuition, making portraits in Washington Square Park as an undocumented immigrant in the 1980s, taking photos for the New York Times at demonstrations in Tompkins Square Park, and returning to set up the ''Good Fences Make Good Neighbors'' project across the city. These candid, spontaneous conversations reveal why Ai Weiwei has become such a major force in contemporary art and political life.

Résumé:
The window as motif in the drawings and paintings of Ellsworth Kelly This monograph was copublished by Cahiers d’Art and Centre Pompidou on the occasion of the 2019 exhibition Ellsworth Kelly: Windows, which brought together, for the first time, the six Windows made by Ellsworth Kelly (1923–2015) in France between 1949 and 1950. Kelly’s years in France were a period of perpetual invention, and are fundamental to an understanding of his work. As he wrote in 1969, “After constructing Window with two canvases and a wood frame, I realized that ... painting as I had known it was finished for me.” This signal moment is evoked through more than 80 works, paintings, drawings, sketches and photographs, along with two beautiful essays by Yve-Alain Bois and Jean-Pierre Criqui.
