Résumé:
Une enquête collective sur les multiples dimensions des espaces et centres d'art gérés par des artistes à travers le monde. Se dessine ainsi un parcours entre les États-Unis, la France, l'Argentine et le Maroc auquel on accorde ici un focus particulier. Alternant documents, communications et conversations, cette édition s'articule au fur et à mesure des territoires arpentés, dans un nomadisme libre et inédit. Mais aussi, elle donne à voir en quoi et comment toute une nouvelle génération de jeunes artistes sensibilisés à ces pratiques d'organisation et de diffusion collective (Le Marquis, Firstlaid, Chevaline Corporation, Chers Amis) a su s'inspirer de ce modèle pour en faire un système fondateur dans l'art d'aujourd'hui. La conception du design graphique de l'ouvrage, édité sous la direction de Rozenn Canevet, a fait l'objet d'un atelier en design graphique.

Résumé:
In “The Critic as Artist”, Oscar Wilde harnesses his famous wit to demolish the supposed boundary between art and criticism. Subtitled “Upon the Importance of Doing Nothing and Discussing Everything”, the essay takes the form of a leisurely dialogue between two characters: Ernest, who insists upon Wilde’s own belief in art’s freedom from societal mandates and values, and a quizzical Gilbert. With his playwright’s ear for dialogue, Wilde champions idleness and contemplation as prerequisites to artistic cultivation. Beyond the well-known dictum of art for art’s sake, Wilde’s originality lays an argument for the equality of criticism and art. For him, criticism is not subject to the work of art, but can in fact precede it: the artist cannot create without engaging his or her critical faculties first. And, as Wilde writes, “To the critic the work of art is simply a suggestion for a new work of his own.” The field of art and criticism should be open to the free play of the mind, but Wilde plays seriously, even prophetically.

Résumé:
"The Legacy of Transgressive Objects" traces the afterlife and historicization of the concept of transgression in the art, architecture, technology, music and psychedelic practices of 1968 and its legacy, by looking at the objects, materials and images that originally shaped these ideas. These decades saw the fertile cross-pollination of rebellious political and artistic energies: radical architecture suggested a whole new organization of society, artistic practices enthusiastically dissolved boundaries between art and life, and music festivals staged gleeful opportunities for transgression. The material heritage of this historical moment is ambivalent—though often ephemeral and deteriorating, the objects associated with these ideas still function as repositories of time and as evocative physical objects. Against this background, this book traces the historical index of these objects that promised to change the world and now open up to the future horizons of the recent past.

Can artistic innovation still function as a source of critique? How do artists, theorists, and art organizations deal with the changing role of and discourse on innovation? Should we look for alternative ways to innovate, or should we change our discourse and look for other (new!) ways to talk about the new?

Résumé:
Au croisement des arts, l'œuvre de Carmelo Bene – acteur, auteur et metteur en scène, pour le théâtre, le cinéma et la télévision, mais aussi romancier et poète – remet systématiquement en question le langage artistique avec lequel il s'exprime. Ni captations de spectacles théâtraux, ni adaptations cinématographiques, ses réalisations pour le petit écran explorent les possibilités techniques et esthétiques offertes par le médium télévisé. Ce volume réunit deux entretiens, respectivement avec les critiques Italo Moscati et Maurizio Grande, publiés au moment de la diffusion du Hamlet télévisé de Carmelo Bene (1978). L'artiste y expose sa méthode de travail et ses idées sur la télévision, ce « médium innocent aux possibilités puissantes, inexplorées ». Relues à l'ère d'Internet, ses réflexions invitent à penser les liens entre spectacle vivant et petit(s) écran(s), mais aussi entre nouveautés technologiques et recherche esthétique, entre avant-gardisme artistique et diffusion de masse.

Résumé:
The narrative of the artist's life and work is one of the oldest models in the Western literature of the visual arts. In "Art as existence", Gabriele Guercio investigates the metamorphosis of the artist's monograph, tracing its formal and conceptual trajectories from Vasari's sixteenth-century "Lives of the painters, sculptors, and architects" (which provided the model and source for the genre) through its apogee in the nineteenth century and decline in the twentieth. He looks at the legacy of the life-and-work model and considers its prospects in an intellectual universe of deconstructionism, psychoanalysis, feminism, and postcolonialism. Since Vasari, the monograph has been notable for its fluidity and variety; it can be scrupulous and exact, probing and revelatory, poetic and imaginative, or any combination of these. In the nineteenth century, the monograph combined art-historical, biographical, and critical methods, and even added elements of fiction. Guercio explores some significant books that illustrate key phases in the model's evolution, including works by Gustav Friedrich Waagen, A. C. Quatremère de Quincy, Johann David Passavant, Bernard Berenson, and others. The hidden project of the artist's monograph, Guercio claims, comes from a utopian impulse; by commuting biography into art and art into biography, the life-and-work model equates art and existence, construing otherwise distinct works of an artist as chapters of a life story. Guercio calls for a contemporary reconsideration of the life-and-work model, arguing that the ultimate legacy of the artist's monograph does not lie in its established modes of writing but in its greater project and in the intimate portrait that we gain of the nature of creativity.
