Résumé:
A leading light of contemporary Japanese art, one of Ohtake’s most successful and endearing installations is his design for a public bathhouse in Naoshima, offering traditional ‘Yu’ hot baths. Ohtake’s art and ephemera covers the building, while entrance fees are low to encourage its use. Bathers step into Ohtake’s bright fantasy world, where giant model elephants walk mezzanine floors, the tiling is a nightmare version of Delftware, and stained glass windows light tranquil corners. This book takes the form of a concertina of vivid cards, packed with images of the bathhouse and its influences from popular culture.

Résumé:
Alexander Calder (1898-1976) is one of modernism’s most captivating and influential figures. First trained as a mechanical engineer, Calder relocated from New York to Paris in the mid-twenties where his acceptance into the city’s burgeoning avant-garde circles coincided with the development of his characteristic form of kinetic sculpture. His early work Cirque Calder, which was presented throughout Paris to great acclaim, prefigures the performance and theatrical aspects that dominate Calder’s pioneering artistic works and are situated as a primary subject of intrigue in this publication.

Résumé:
In the summer of 1970, the artist Les Levine arrived at the University of Toronto to take part in the installation of site-specific work on the quadrangle in front of the University's Hart House. The intended piece—construction materials hung from high-tension rope between campus buildings—was quickly stymied as Levine encountered a series of bureaucratic impediments on the part of the University staff. What ensued was played into the conceptual conceit the artist had envisioned for the project. By collating the correspondence, telephone transcripts, and visual documentation of the eventual installation process, Levine used the work to demonstrate how the university itself functioned as a system. Red Tape publishes this project, which had existed only as a dossier in the artist's archive, for the first time.

Résumé:
A la fin de la Première Guerre mondiale, les avant-gardes européennes sont porteuses d'une volonté de changement et d'un espoir d'avenir meilleur. Plus que tout autre, Theo van Doesburg (1883-1931) participe à cet effort de reconstruction en élargissant l'esthétique néo-plastique de Piet Mondrian à toutes les disciplines : peinture, sculpture, architecture et arts appliqués. Theo van Doesburg propose une véritable révolution, qui vise à transformer le monde de chaque individu, à créer une nouvelle expression de l'art, qui soit en interaction avec la complexité de la vie et avec l'évolution des sciences et des techniques. Sa démarche en constante évolution convoque des mouvances a priori incompatibles comme le dadaïsme et le néoplasticisme et tend à promouvoir l'innovation, ce qu'atteste son évolution vers l'élémentarisme, puis vers l'Art Concret. Pour défendre son projet à un niveau international, Van Doesburg, également fondateur du mouvement et de la revue De Stijl, a su fédérer tous les artistes qui comptaient. Il est reconnu autant pour ses réalisations plastiques que pour sa façon d'accomplir un idéal philosophique, artistique et collectif. La notoriété internationale de nombreux artistes, dont celle de Mondrian, en bénéficiera largement.

Résumé:
Based around an out-of-print anthology devoted to prehistoric collections unearthed by archaeological expeditions in Algeria, French artist Camille Henrot's latest project treats this ethnographic material as motifs of a contemporary grotesque. The scientific document photographs, diagrams, and captions becomes part of a layered array incorporating traces of our present age: humans, animals, plants, minerals, and other objects. Freely mixing the pre- and post-historic, archaic and actual, Henrot constructs an exploration of human bodies, information media, and meaning using dated pornography, technological refuse, tools and instruments, signs, and more.
