Résumé:
Implying always a beginning, teaching is about initiating excitement. It entails the deployment of pleasure, the built-up of passion, and obsession vis-à-vis a particular field of endeavour, the grounds on which a discipline operates, and its intellectual as well as physical practices. Notwithstanding the optimistic implications of such a claim, teaching inevitably(...)

Résumé:
Implying always a beginning, teaching is about initiating excitement. It entails the deployment of pleasure, the built-up of passion, and obsession vis-à-vis a particular field of endeavour, the grounds on which a discipline operates, and its intellectual as well as physical practices. Notwithstanding the optimistic implications of such a claim, teaching inevitably involves a contradictory bias both in favour as well as against the discipline at issue, promoting an understanding of its regulating principles while at the same time questioning the seemingly secure bases on which it is presumed to stand. Whereas teaching is affirmative, it simultaneously introduces a distancing from the very subject matter that it promotes.

In the end, the winning project encompasses all this : Zaha Hadid's tram station in Strasbourg is at the same time a strategy, open-ended, imperfect, intelligent and playful. But it also resolved and unafraid to identify with conventional architectural qualities.

Résumé:
The last thirty years of the twentieth century saw the birth of more than six hundred art museums in the United States alone, with equal proliferation in much of Europe. Such projects as Frank Gehry's Guggenheim in Bilbao and Richard Meier's Getty Center in Los Angeles have dominated television newscasts and newspaper headlines worldwide. The success or failure of these new museums, in aesthetic, educational and financial terms, results from a variety of factors, none more important than their architecture. In this unique investigation, architectural historian Victoria Newhouse challenges many hitherto accepted premises of museum design. She demonstrates that new museums are often based on old concepts that no longer apply. This unvarnished analysis is informed by interviews with museum directors and curators, collectors, artists and the architects themselves. Newhouse divides her discussion according to the dominant characteristics of the museums : private collections, single-artist museums, sacred spaces, artists' self-created sites, and museum additions. In addition to the Getty and the Guggenheim Bilbao, the author discusses the Menil Collection in Houston, Texas; the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh; the Kiasma Museum for Contemporary Art in Helsinki; Donald Judd's Chinati Foundation in Marfa, Texas; the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York; the Grand Louvre and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris; and many more.

La tour Eiffel, bien sûr, comme le Grand Palais ou le palais du Trocadéro. Mais la grande majorité des pavillons, faits de bois et de torchis, de brique ou de plâtre, décorés de stuc et de céramique et promis à la destruction à l'issue des festivités, ont disparu. Certaines de ces constructions précaires ont cependant été rachetées ou récupérées par des collectivités ou des particuliers. On retrouve ainsi à Paris ou plus encore en banlieue des dizaines de pavillons anciens ou d'éléments remontés de façon plus ou moins fantaisiste.

Résumé:
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then it's a good bet that at least half of those words relate to the picture's copyright status. Art historians, artists, and anyone who wants to use the images of others will find themselves awash in byzantine legal terms, constantly evolving copyright law, varying interpretations by museums and estates, and despair over the complexity of the whole situation. Here, Susan Bielstein offers her decades of experience as an editor working with illustrated books. In doing so, she unsnarls the threads of permissions that have ensnared scholars, critics, and artists for years. Organized as a series of “takes” that range from short sidebars to extended discussions, "Permissions, a survival guide" explores intellectual property law as it pertains to visual imagery. How can you determine whether an artwork is copyrighted? How do you procure a high-quality reproduction of an image? What does “fair use” really mean? Is it ever legitimate to use the work of an artist without permission? Bielstein discusses the many uncertainties that plague writers who work with images in this highly visual age, and she does so based on her years navigating precisely these issues. As an editor who has hired a photographer to shoot an incredibly obscure work in the Italian mountains (a plan that backfired hilariously), who has tried to reason with artists' estates in languages she doesn't speak, and who has spent her time in the archival trenches, she offers a snappy and humane guide to this difficult terrain.
