Résumé:
Comment répondre aux défis multiples de la crise climatique ? De quelle façon inclure toutes les créatrices et tous les créateurs dans le monde de l’art ? De quelle manière replacer le vivant au centre de la pratique artistique ? En remontant le fil de l’histoire de l’art, l’autrice montre comme les préoccupations de préservation des ressources, de transmission des savoir-faire et de réenchantement du monde ont pu exister depuis des siècles dans le travail de nombreuses et nombreux artistes. Elle dresse un panorama enthousiaste de la création contemporaine, en présentant le travail de femmes et d’hommes dont l’art peut être défini comme écologique. Land art, récupération de matériaux, création en circuits courts, travail collaboratif : les pistes de réflexion sont nombreuses et stimulantes.

Résumé:
Liam Gillick emerged as part of the generation of "Young British Artists" who energized the British art scene in the 1980s and 1990s. He is now one of the most influential (and perplexing) artists in all of contemporary art. Gillick's discursive mode of art practice—often associated with "relational aesthetics"—complicates object production, embraces the exhibition as medium, and explores the social role and function of art. This reader coincides with a year-long, multi-venue, mid-career retrospective that serves both as a continuous investigation into Gillick's practice and an in-depth study of his work to date. The book offers a range of critical perspectives on artist's work. Introduction by Monika Szewczyk.

En 1964, à l'occasion de l'inauguration d'une exposition de sculptures, Heidegger prononce une allocution où il s'attache à préciser les relations entre la sculpture et l'espace, l'art et l'espace, l'homme et l'espace. Dans une langue très simple, il tente de capter et de décrire le mouvement par lequel l'espace se fait espace, par lequel l'homme s'aménage un espace et(...)

Résumé:
En 1964, à l'occasion de l'inauguration d'une exposition de sculptures, Heidegger prononce une allocution où il s'attache à préciser les relations entre la sculpture et l'espace, l'art et l'espace, l'homme et l'espace. Dans une langue très simple, il tente de capter et de décrire le mouvement par lequel l'espace se fait espace, par lequel l'homme s'aménage un espace et aménage l'espace. Chemin faisant, il précise également les relations entre le lieu et l'espace, le lieu et l'étendue, le lieu et la distance mesurable. Cette description où chacun ne pourra manquer de reconnaître sa propre expérience possède en outre le mérite d'introduire aussi clairement que possible au cœur de la pensée de Heidegger, à savoir au rapport de l'homme à l'être et de l'être à l'homme.

Résumé:
Countering the standard view of Futurism as naïvely bellicose, author Christine Poggi argues that Futurist artists and writers were far more ambivalent in their responses to the shocks of industrial modernity than Marinetti's incendiary pronouncements would suggest. She closely examines Futurist literature, art, and politics within the broader context of Italian social history, revealing a surprisingly powerful undercurrent of anxiety among the Futurists -toward the accelerated rhythms of urban life, the rising influence of the masses, changing gender roles, and the destructiveness of war. Poggi traces the movement from its explosive beginnings through its transformations under Fascism to offer completely new insights into familiar Futurist themes, such as the thrill and trauma of velocity, the psychology of urban crowds, and the fantasy of flesh fused with metal, among others. Lavishly illustrated and unparalleled in scope, Inventing Futurism demonstrates that beneath Futurism's belligerent avant-garde posturing lay complex and contradictory attitudes toward an always-deferred utopian future.

The volume’s ten essays, written by leading art historians and critics, address precedents for the projection of images in space in nineteenth-century magic lantern shows and world’s fairs as well as the alternative conceptions of duration or the representation of time pioneered by surrealists and experimental filmmakers in the early and mid-twentieth century.

Résumé:
The utopian impulse informs politically activist and relational art, practices that fuse elements of art, design, and architecture, and collaborative projects aspiring to progressive social or political change. Two other tendencies have emerged in recent art: a looking backward to investigate the utopian elements of previous eras, and the imaginative modeling of alternative worlds as intimations of possibility. This anthology contextualizes these utopian currents in relation to political thought, viewing the utopian as a key term in the artistic lineage of modernity. It illuminates how the exploration of utopian themes in art today contributes to our understanding of contemporary cultures, and the possibilities for shaping their futures.

Résumé:
The last explosive change in art education came nearly a century ago, when the German Bauhaus was formed. Today, dramatic changes in the art world—its increasing professionalization, the pervasive power of the art market, and fundamental shifts in art-making itself in our post-Duchampian era—combined with a revolution in information technology, raise fundamental questions about the education of today's artists. This book brings together more than thirty leading international artists and art educators to reconsider the practices of art education in academic, practical, ethical, and philosophical terms. The essays in the book range over continents, histories, traditions, experiments, and fantasies of education. Accompanying the essays are conversations with such prominent artist/educators as John Baldessari, Michael Craig-Martin, Hans Haacke, and Marina Abramovi, as well as questionnaire responses from a dozen important artists—among them Mike Kelley, Ann Hamilton, Guillermo Kuitca, and Shirin Neshat—about their own experiences as students. A fascinating analysis of the architecture of major historical art schools throughout the world looks at the relationship of the principles of their designs to the principles of the pedagogy practiced within their halls.
