Résumé:
"You’re not a painter if you haven’t painted gray", declared Paul Cézanne. The same could be said of philosophers: you’re not a philosopher if you have never thought gray. This simple four-letter word signifies much more than a quasi-neutral color lying between black and white: we use the same word to describe moods, November skies, the hair of the elderly, the withered(...)

Résumé:
"You’re not a painter if you haven’t painted gray", declared Paul Cézanne. The same could be said of philosophers: you’re not a philosopher if you have never thought gray. This simple four-letter word signifies much more than a quasi-neutral color lying between black and white: we use the same word to describe moods, November skies, the hair of the elderly, the withered features of faces, dusty shelves, faceless bureaucracies, dreary politicians and hundreds of other things. This plain, unassuming word conceals a multitude of thoughts that we seldom pause to consider. In this exceptionally original book, Peter Sloterdijk follows the grey thread through the history of philosophy, art, literature and politics, enabling us to see familiar things in new ways and highlighting features of our lives that would otherwise remain unseen.

The distant past is commonly characterized in terms of dominant materials of the time – the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, etc. Since the dawn of writing, however, characterizing eras in terms of materials has fallen by the wayside, and yet materials have continued to exert a powerful influence on our collective imagination.

Résumé:
The distant past is commonly characterized in terms of dominant materials of the time – the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, etc. Since the dawn of writing, however, characterizing eras in terms of materials has fallen by the wayside, and yet materials have continued to exert a powerful influence on our collective imagination. Viewed from this perspective, France in the period from 1815 to 1855 could be seen as the half-century of plaster. After the French Revolution, plaster was used for a great variety of things: building, moulding, sculpting, decorating. Cheap and easy to use, plaster was everywhere, from Napoleon’s death mask to household ornaments, from walls to elaborate mouldings. Plaster was king – but a fragile king that easily crumbled and fell apart. The age of plaster was also the reign of the ephemeral and the transient, the vulgar and the eclectic, and the men and women of the time struggled to maintain stability and continuity with the past.

In these five jewel-like essays, Yourcenar meditates on the decay of time, the desire both satiated and refused by art, and the imagery animating the lives, works, and dreams of Michelangelo, Dürer, and Piranesi. And in an intimate mediation on the historical novel, Yourcenar describes her own encounters with how language and sound reveal the past. Together these exquisite essays explore that fundamental awe—perhaps even the terror—at the heart of an encounter with beauty.

Bringing together scholars, filmmakers, curators, and artists from a range of Latin American backgrounds, this publication is a forthright and practitioner-driven reflection on the circumstances of producing and disseminating work in a country of predominantly anglophone and francophone environments. Contributors to the volume explore topics including how Latinx Canadian identity is constructed, negotiated, and expressed, as well as the networks and solidarities that shape Latinx Canadian experiences. These connections include intergenerational mentorships, cross-cultural alliances, and collaborations with Indigenous and other marginalized communities within racialized and gendered frameworks.

In a stationary orbit above the equator, the satellites that broadcast our TV signals, route our phone calls, and process our credit card transactions experience no atmospheric drag. Their inert hulls will continue to drift around Earth until the Sun expands into a red giant and engulfs them about 4.5 billion years from now. he Last Pictures, co-published by Creative Time Books, is rooted in the premise that these communications satellites will ultimately become the cultural and material ruins of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, far outlasting anything else humans have created. Inspired in part by ancient cave paintings, nuclear waste warning signs, and Carl Sagan's Golden Records of the 1970s, artist/geographer and MacArthur "Genius" Fellow Trevor Paglen has developed a collection of one hundred images that will be etched onto an ultra-archival, golden silicon disc.

Résumé:
This historical survey focuses on female artists who were either working with computer technologies or taking up the subject of computing and cybernetics in their work in the early years of the computer revolution. It documents a lesser-known history of the inception of digital art, countering conventional narratives by focusing entirely on female figures. Comprising more than 100 works by 50 artists from 14 countries, it spans a period from the first years of integrated circuit computing in the 1960s to the "microcomputer revolution," which led to the birth of home computing in the 1980s. This extensive publication includes three new essays by Tina Rivers Ryan, Margit Rosen and the exhibition's curator, Michelle Cotton. It also features a richly illustrated timeline covering the period between 1613 and 1991 and includes 27 new interviews with artists and over 200 illustrations.

Her students have the internet in their pockets, screens on their wrists, seeing in more directions than students ever could before. But what, in fact, are they looking at? In the spirit of John Berger’s ''Ways of Seeing'', Sarah Minor’s ''Carousel'' explores how the pursuit of panoramic vision frames power, distorts reality, and implicates both viewer and subject. Across short, loping sections that weave history with memoir, close looking with confession, Minor masterfully fuses the slide lecture with the lyric essay, tying medieval tapestries to surrealism and Instagram reels to predator drones. In language that captures the disorientation of that other carousel, the whirling carnival ride, Minor shows how the more we strive to see, the more we ultimately reveal ourselves.
