Résumé:
Blue Republic, a collaborative entity composed of artists Anna Passakas and Radoslaw Kudlinski, produces installations that combine humour, wit and metaphor to stimulate discourse on political ideas and economic issues. This publication documents new artworks assembled from discarded industrial materials and re-fashioned into ready-mades. The intention is to invite reflection on the meta-city and on the notions of utopia and dystopia through a fictional, futuristic lens in order to reveal the desires and fantasies and that drive contemporary society.

Résumé:
« Trottoir » est un mot si courant que même les tout-petits enfants savent ce qu'il désigne et la plupart des habitants des villes marchent dessus plusieurs fois par jour. Pourtant, le trottoir existe à peine d'un point de vue juridique, les urbanistes lui préfèrent la notion d'» espace public », moins associée à la prostitution et à la vie dans la rue, et les « rez-de-chaussée », qui sont le plus souvent des « rez-de-trottoir », effacent jusqu'à son nom. Il est aujourd'hui urgent de reconnaître toute la valeur de cet espace qui se raréfie sous l'effet des transitions numérique et écologique. Il est par exemple de plus en plus convoité par les opérateurs de trottinettes électriques, livreurs de colis, fontaines rafraichissantes, points de collecte de déchets, etc., tandis qu'il reste indispensable pour les piétons et les riverains. Entre public et privé, entre marchant et marchand, le trottoir cristallise les principaux changements à l'oeuvre dans la ville, et les « batailles du trottoir » qui se multiplient sont plus largement l'écho des débats sur le futur des villes.

Résumé:
This richly illustrated monograph looks at André Volten's stylistic development by examining a large number of works from his sculptural output. The writers also consider Volten's significance to sculpture in the Netherlands and on the international art scene, as well as discussing his development of the Constructivist aesthetic. Since the 1950s, André Volten (b. 1925) has made an exceptional contribution to sculpture in public space, and examples of his prolific output can be seen in the Netherlands and beyond. He has also been an important protagonist in the debate about the need for art within the public domain. The integration of architecture and visual art, as seen in Volten's work, demonstrates how these two disciplines can complement and invigorate each other.

Résumé:
There are no perfect public spaces. Public space is constantly changing, shifting, never quite fixed. It is formed by laws, by regulations, by private ownership, and by city management. Public spaces are influenced both by the people who oversee them and by those who use them. And because of these facts, public spaces are never neutral. In "ublic Spaces, NY," Michael(...)

Résumé:
There are no perfect public spaces. Public space is constantly changing, shifting, never quite fixed. It is formed by laws, by regulations, by private ownership, and by city management. Public spaces are influenced both by the people who oversee them and by those who use them. And because of these facts, public spaces are never neutral. In "ublic Spaces, NY," Michael Meredith and Hilary Sample document and analyze Manhattan’s parks, streets, community gardens, privately owned public spaces, recreation areas, waterfronts, and cemeteries. Their book seeks to understand their design, construction and management, and provides detailed drawings of both the spaces themselves and speculative illustrations about how the public uses the spaces. By examining how public spaces facilitate or hinder inclusion, and by detailing the conflicts and negotiations they provoke, this book creates a discourse to reimagine the future of public life in the United States’ densest city.

Résumé:
''Concéntrico: Urban Innovation Laboratory'' reflects on the first decade of the international Concéntrico festival and the one hundred and fifty projects and designs commissioned for it. The festival’s aim is to serve as a laboratory searching for creative ways of using architecture and design to strengthen communities and to support the dialogue between designers and citizens. The book offers a unique meditation on the transformation of cities and the relevance of architecture and design in the twenty-first century. It introduces meaningful ways to address and engage with pressing urban issues—from identity and heritage to temporariness, collectivity, ecology, play, and domesticity—through the lens of selected Concéntrico commissions since 2015. Through lavishly illustrated essays, it features projects by eighty artists, architects, and designers from twenty countries. They are prefaced and held together by a conversation between the editors Javier Peña Ibáñez and Nick Axel, who speak about the festival’s context, evolution, and the knowledge it has produced since 2014.

Urban Toys chronicles Nadim Karam and Atelier Hapsitus’s recent creations of relief and rebellion in the city. Working out of Beirut, they make their own rules for urban art with work that is, in the words of Peter Cook, “unnervingly original.” Projects include groundbreaking work in post-war Beirut and post-Communist Prague, sculptures for the sidewalks of London and Tokyo, a poetic project in Todaiji temple in Nara, and the Sandridge Bridge project on the Yarra River for the opening of the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne in 2006. Their work in the creation of “dream pockets” has grown in importance, given the increasing number of cities that have to add violence and terror to the pressures of urban life.

The world of Russian public notices is fascinating, bizarre and saturated in tragic-comedy: "An old woman. Left home and has not returned. Small, hunchbacked.

Résumé:
The world of Russian public notices is fascinating, bizarre and saturated in tragic-comedy: "An old woman. Left home and has not returned. Small, hunchbacked. Wears: a blue dress, red wool cardigan, a white handkerchief with red flowers on her head, grey slippers on her feet. Does not have memory." The authors and readers of these usually handwritten notices are members of Russia's underclass, made visible by these acts of public address which so often go unread. In this secret economy of exchange and communication, you can swap a voucher for an airplane or help to find a missing earring lost "during the fireworks on the Day of Cosmonauts." All over Russia, all sorts of surfaces, stationary or mobile, have been papered over with such notices. The folklorist, lexicographer and contributor to the related publications Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopedia Volumes I and II, Alexei Plutser-Sarno, has been collecting these public notices from all over Russia for many years. Notes From Russia features the highlights of Plutser-Sarno's collection, which, combined with his commentaries, tells an alternative story of recent Russian culture. Designed as part of Fuel's acclaimed Russian series of books, and printed on an unusual mix of white and brown craft paper, Notes From Russia is a moving and vital contribution to the documentation of vernacular graphics.

Résumé:
Artistic genius, political activist, painter and decorator, mythic legend or notorious graffiti artist? The work of Banksy is unmistakable, except maybe when it’s squatting inthe Tate or New York’s Metropolitan Museum. Banksy is responsible for decorating the streets, walls, bridges and zoos of towns and cites throughout the world. Witty and subversive, his stencils show monkeys with weapons of mass destruction, policeman with smiley faces, rats with drills and umbrellas.If you look hard enough you’ll find your own. His statements, incitements, ironies and epigrams are by turns intelligent and cheeky comments on everything from the monarchy and capitalism to the war in Iraq and farm animals. His identity remains unknown, but his work is prolific. And now for the first time, he’s putting together the best of his work – old and new in a fully illustrated colour volume.
