Résumé:
From the 1990s until just before his death, the legendary art critic and philosopher Arthur C. Danto carried out extended conversations about contemporary art with the prominent Italian critic Demetrio Paparoni. Their discussions ranged widely over a vast range of topics, from American pop art and minimalism to abstraction and appropriationism. Yet they continually returned to the concepts at the core of Danto’s thinking—posthistory and the end of aesthetics—provocative notions that to this day shape questions about the meaning and future of contemporary art. This book presents these rich dialogues and correspondence, testifying to the ongoing importance of Danto’s ideas.

Résumé:
This publication project was realised by the 2019–2021 fellows of the Graduate School programme at the Berlin University of the Arts: Yalda Afsah, Salwa Aleryani, Neslihan Arol, Anthony R. Green, Mariam Mekiwi, Rindon Johnson, and R A Walden. The intricacies of building societal, historical, corporeal, and environmental justices today in theory and praxis make the common denominator among their sonic, visual, filmic, theatrical, literal, sculptural, and installation oriented researches. Intersections, collapses, overlaps and resonances among their voices make this publication a unique artist book that questions the agency of imagination in the artistic, discursive and political realms. Imagine something new, like justice is also an investigation of transdisciplinarity in collective methodology where artist fellows, publisher, designer, editor, and coordinator took steps further their designated labor division roles.

Résumé:
Forming a comprehensive picture of the multiple processes, regulations, institutions, technologies, networks, and operations that we have come to understand as the distributed infrastructural arena in which we act, yield, and plot is a perennial challenge. Over the past decade, a growing number of artists, theorists, curators, and researchers have moved from ''institutional critique'' to ''infrastructural critique,'' or toward ''infrastructural speculation,'' in which they explore the potential of creative infrastructure-related visions and scenarios. In attempts to counter the impasse of ''the cancelled future,'' art has immersed itself in systemic critiques and propositional thinking, addressing major challenges, such as the rampant financialization of the economy and runaway climate change. From questions around space settlements to the possibility of repurposing blockchain infrastructures and financial instruments for redistributive purposes, and from the diagrammatic potential of infrastructural thinking in artistic practices to scenario planning and economic strategizing, this collection of new essays brings together critical analysis from a broad group of contributors engaged in the revisioning of our infrastructural futures. Their interrogations span local and global relationalities, historical and political legacies, as well as future-oriented infrastructural hypotheses.

Résumé:
This volume assembles a new collection of essays and reminiscences by one of the preeminent art historians of our time. Spanning more than four decades of Yve-Alain Bois's work as a scholar, journal editor, and occasional curator, this volume traces a deeply personal itinerary through an important era of art history, in which the discipline was significantly reformulated by new methodologies. Detailing Bois's early relationships with figures such as Roland Barthes, Hubert Damisch, Lygia Clark, and Jacques Derrida, as well as his extended engagements with Rosalind Krauss, Ellsworth Kelly, and Martin Barré, these essays track Bois's intellectual commitments against the backdrop of an evolving academic field. With texts that range from academic journal articles to obituaries, written from 1976 to 2021, this book reveals the range of Bois's authorial voice and offers a remarkable self-portrait of one of art history's primary protagonists.

Résumé:
This illustrated collection of essays brings together some of art historian Linda Nochlin’s most important writings on modernism and modernity from across her six-decade career. Before the publication of her seminal essay on feminism in art, “Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?,” she had already firmly established herself as a major practitioner of a politically sophisticated and class-conscious social art history. Nochlin was part of an important cohort of scholars writing on modernity, determined to rethink the narratives of the subject under the pressure of contemporary events such as student uprisings, the women’s liberation movement, and the Vietnam War, with the help of politically engaged literary criticism that was emerging at the same time. Nochlin embraced Charles Baudelaire’s conviction that modernity is meant to be of one’s time- and that the role of an art historian was to understand the art of the past not only in its own historical context but according to the urgencies of the contemporary world. From academic debates about the nude in the eighteenth century to the work of Robert Gober in the twenty-first, whatever she turned her analytic eye to was conceived as the art of the now. Including seven previously unpublished pieces, this collection highlights the breadth and diversity of Nochlin’s output across the decades, including discussions on colonialism, fashion, and sex.

Cette publication est une collection d’essais réunissant les voix de 16 artistes, commissaires, historien.ne.s de l’art et travailleur.se.s culturel.le.s autochtones, tant francophones qu’anglophones, œuvrant dans les territoires que l’on nomme Québec. Faisant suite à des expositions, des performances, des résidences d’artistes et des discussions mises en place lors du Projet Tiohtìa :ke (2017-2019) du Collectif des commissaires autochtones, ces textes honorent les relations et les affinités qui sont au cœur de ces pratiques en arts visuels. Par la diversité des points de vue et les enjeux soulevés par ces écrits, ce livre pose des questions cruciales sur l’avenir des arts autochtones et ouvre la porte à des dialogues longtemps attendus au Québec qui, nous l’espérons, permettront de créer de réels changements positifs. Il est maintenant temps de plonger dans ces imaginaires collectifs éblouissants et de nager dans les eaux ondulantes de ces mémoires résilientes.

Résumé:
Découvrir une œuvre d'art est souvent l'occasion de rencontrer sa créatrice ou son créateur, et d'avoir envie d'en savoir plus sur sa démarche, ses motivations et ses convictions. Cet ouvrage vous propose de partir à la rencontre de 50 artistes à travers leurs œuvres et leurs mots. Si certains noms majeurs de l'histoire de l'art se retrouvent au fil de ses pages (Michel-Ange, Rembrandt…), ce livre fait surtout la part belle à la création contemporaine. La distribution dépasse en outre les codes conventionnels du genre et les frontières de la scène occidentale de l'art.Plutôt que de suivre un format chronologique, géographique ou thématique, « Des artistes sur l'art » adopte une approche instinctive, qui aborde des aspects de la créativité tout aussi complémentaires que contradictoires. Peintres, sculpteurs, cinéastes et photographes : tous les artistes représentés offrent une vision unique de leur pratique. Ce livre comporte enfin cinq entretiens originaux, qui permettent de mieux comprendre comment des artistes novateurs abordent leur travail.
