Résumé:
Over the last twenty years an increasing number of artists have turned to expressing themselves through postcards. Whether by way of installation, collage, addition to, or alteration of existing postcards, or the production of postcards themselves, many prominent artists employ the medium in some form. Artists’ Postcards traces the origin of artists' fascination with postcards from the early 1900s but with a focus on the contemporary, revealing the significant number of artists who have made creative and unusual artworks in postcard form. With 400 images of postcards created by many well-known artists, Artists’ Postcards is the first critical guide to the subject. From surrealists to Fluxus and conceptual artists, this book includes an array of historical and contemporary postcards by such artists as George Grosz, Bruce Nauman, Richard Long, David Hockney, Richard Hamilton, Susan Hiller, Joseph Beuys, Ben Vautier, Dieter Roth, Ray Johnson, Gordon Matta-Clark, Gavin Turk, Tacita Dean, Gilbert and George and Rachel Whiteread.

Résumé:
Comment concilier l'appel au rêve et le souci du réel, la psychanalyse et le matérialisme dialectique? La question se pose au surréalisme à la fin des années vingt, lorsque le mouvement, fondé par André Breton, se met «au service de la révolution». Cette allégeance suppose une remise en cause du rôle social de l'artiste, de la fétichisation marchande de ses œuvres, à quoi répond l'invention de l'objet surréaliste. Ce dictionnaire-catalogue qui accompagne l'exposition «Le surréalisme et l'objet», présentée au Centre Pompidou du 30 octobre 2013 au 3 mars 2014, retrace les étapes d'un questionnement, d'une création, qui provoque l'avènement de l'objet, fait proliférer la figure du mannequin et conduit à la mise en scène des expositions.

Résumé:
In August 1968, the Pakistani foreign minister visited Beijing and presented Chairman Mao Zedong with a crate of mangoes as a diplomatic gesture. The next day, Mao sent the mangoes to the “Worker-Peasant Mao Zedong though Propaganda Teams,” who had been stationed at Quinghua University to put down warring factions of Red Guards ten days previously. The message of this gift was to dismiss the Student Red Guards, who had been leaders of the proletarian movement in China, and in their stead to install workers as the permanent guardians of China’s education system. During the following weeks, the mangoes were distributed to several factories, where they were treated as though they were religious relics. The golden mango was thus a powerful emblem of the power and respect accorded to the proletariat under Mao’s rule. Mao’s Gold Mangoes and the Cultural Revolution is the catalog for an exhibition of the same title at the Museum Rietberg in Zürich, which explores the golden mangoes’ reverberations throughout Chinese culture for years to come.
