Global biennials have proliferated in the contemporary art world, but artists’ engagement with large-scale international exhibitions has a much longer history that has influenced the present in important ways. Going back to the earliest world’s fairs in the nineteenth century, this book argues that 'globalism' was incubated in a century of international art contests and today constitutes an important tactic for artists.

Résumé:
When the gates of the 1964–1965 New York World’s Fair swung open on April 24, 1964, the first of more than 51 million lucky visitors entered, ready to witness the cutting edge of worldwide technology and progress. Faced with a disappointing lack of foreign participants due to political contention, the fair instead showcased the best of American industry and science. While multimillion-dollar pavilions predicted colonies on the moon and hotels under the ocean, other forecasts, such as the promises of computer technology, have surpassed even the most optimistic predictions of the fair. The 1964–1965 New York World’s Fair: Creation and Legacy uses rare, previously unpublished photographs to examine the creation of the fair and the legacies left behind for future generations. Bill Cotter and Bill Young, authors of The 1964–1965 New York World’s Fair, they have contributed to numerous other books, magazine articles, and documentaries on the fair. They also host two popular Web sites devoted to the study and appreciation of this once-in-a-lifetime event.

Résumé:
Cette publication retrace au travers de ses archives, l'histoire et l'évolution d'un lieu particulier, – le Centre d'édition contemporaine –sa production et sa politique artistiques, et détermine sa place, son statut et son engagement dans le champ de l'art contemporain. La période couverte, 1989-2007, se situe très loin du Centre genevois de gravure contemporaine (fondé dans les années 1960) devenu, en 2001, le Centre d'édition contemporaine. Elle correspond à une phase d'ouverture et de développement à un art contemporain en mutation accélérée. Parcourant ces dix-neuf ans d'activité, cet ouvrage tente de les illustrer et de les commenter, de les cataloguer et de les décrire dans le détail.
