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.

Isabelle Pauwels is a young Vancouver artist with an abiding concern about the effect of architecture on social relation. "Unfinished Apartment for Rent" details, in seven screenplays, the interaction between a series of fictitious apartment dwellers. Forced through financial constraints to assemble furniture from the walls of their individual accommodations, these renters sacrifice more and more privacy as they cannibalize their dwellings for creature comforts.

This catalogue accompanies an exhibition of the work of Christopher Williams at the Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver.

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.

Résumé:
This book accompanies Geoffrey Farmer’s installation "The Blacking Factory" which comprised two interrelated works: a sculptural installation in the form of a large truck trailer, and a film work depicting a window of the Contemporary Art Gallery shattering from an explosive concussion. With these works, Farmer utilizes the technological expertise of the film industry to create analogies between increasingly sophisticated mechanics of display and the artifice behind the social production of meaning and value. The truck trailer is fabricated in mimicry of those used by movie production companies — an increasingly common sight on the streets of Vancouver — and alludes to the transportation of such necessities as props, lighting systems and costumes necessary to the creation of illusions. The catalogue includes texts by Nanaimo-based poet and critic Peter Culley and exhibition curator Reid Shier.

Résumé:
This book accompanies and exhibition of the work of Vancouver artist, Scott McFarland, whose photographs are highlighted by meticulous staging that document a discrete range of subjects in serial format. The exhibition at the Contemporary Art Gallery concentrated on one of his ongoing projects : a large body of photographs detailing the interior and exterior of a rural cabin on BC’s Sunshine Coast. McFarland’s naturalistic staging and close cropping emphasized and valorized objects and personal artefacts accumulating within the cabin, and stress an ongoing relationship between the site and its depiction.
