Résumé:
In recent decades models have made a contribution to architectural discourse that should not be underestimated. Christophe Van Gerrewey considers the models in OMA’s oeuvre and ascertains that OMA’s models always take on a life of their own, turning into ‘a realisation of what architecture promises, yet can never attain itself’. For example, the two plaster models of the Très Grande Bibliothèque in Paris afforded new insights into a space that can be read both as mass and as counter-mass, while the model of the cruise terminal in Zeebrugge exemplified the power of the iconic form. OASE 84 devotes considerable attention to (architectural) models that play an important part in the work of various artists as well, like in the work of Mike Kelley and Thomas Demand. These models are hardly ever meant to be realised on a different scale elsewhere; they work with the dualistic connotations of the model directly. Although the two disciplines have markedly different motives for using models, we are confident that the cross-pollination brought about here will generate novel insights about the model’s significance and possibilities. With contributions by Jacob Bil, Adam Caruso, Thomas Demand, Job Floris, Kersten Geers, Christophe Van Gerrewey, Anne Holtrop, Christian Hubert, Junya Ishigami, Krijn de Koning, Véronique Patteeuw, Bas Princen, Hans Teerds, Milica Topalovic and Stefaan Vervoort OASE is an independent, international journal published in Dutch and English that features architecture, urban design and landscape design. Each issue is devoted to a topical theme and thus makes a significant contribution to international discourse within these fields. OASE is published three times a year

Résumé:
The Bauhaus Dessau Foundation devoted its seventh issue to an international group of contemporary collectives, unorthodox thinkers and solo artists in architecture, design and art. The publication addresses communal and cooperative models established at the Bauhaus such as Hannes Meyer’s co-op principle in the USSR and Chile, and anonymity and conflict in Gropius’s architects collaborative (TAC) in the USA while looking at the options and potentials of collective design today. It sheds light on the link between the Bauhaus and the upcoming Architecture Biennale in Venice, considers why architects in Spain currently invest more in collective design practices and discusses how current cooperative societies influence the collective identity around the world.

Résumé:
This volume surveys the ways in which our globalized world has manifested itself in design since ca 1970, and the ways in which design has evolved to serve a globalized world. The point of departure is a conception of design which encompasses -architecture, graphics, the media, fashion, product and industrial design, as well as the shaping of the manmade environment and of production processes. The focus is on the formation of global networks in the areas of communication, production, commerce, finance, and mobility. The diverse phenomena of globalization are visualized through film, products, clothing, images, and models by well-known artists such as Armin Linke, Fischli Weiss, Didier Faustino, and Thomas Demand. Alongside the shipping container, an indispensable element of globalization, the presentation provides insights into cultural transfer both in the present day and historically, and presents -globalization in relationship to regionalism as well as to worldwide trends.

Résumé:
Since the early twentieth century, contemporary art and art theory have creatively challenged the status of representation. During that time, the court of law has come to rely on a variety of new representational modes and technologies. The law is increasingly staged on a screen and the photographs, video documents, audio recordings used as evidence are not entirely distinct from their correlates in contemporary art, cinema and mass media. What questions of representation, judgment and justice cross borders between art and the law? Through the contribution of internationally renowned artists and scholars, this anthology explores how the aesthetics of new media technology and its spatial implementations affect the judicial system in relation to fundamental concepts such as truth and representation. Artistic contributions by John Baldessari, Dan Graham, Harun Farocki, Stan Douglas, Aernout Mik, Agency, Judy Radul, Renzo Martens, Ana Torfs, The Atlas Group, René Magritte, Model Court, Rana Hamadeh, Thomas Demand, Les Levine Essays by Julie A.

Résumé:
La photographie connaît depuis quelques années un engouement sans précédent auprès du public, des institutions, de la critique mais aussi des artistes, qui l'intègrent de plus en plus à leur pratique. Elle est ainsi devenue aujourd'hui l'un des principaux médiums de l'art contemporain. Ce livre analyse l'infinie variété de sujets abordés et de techniques employées par les artistes, mais il s'attache surtout, et c'est là son originalité, à dresser une typologie de leurs différentes approches. Pour certains artistes, comme Sophie Calle ou Erwin Wurm, la photographie est un moyen d'enregistrer une performance ou une action quotidienne, tandis que pour d'autres, comme Yinka Shonibare ou Gregory Crewdson, elle permet la mise en scène de récits imaginaires. Andreas Gursky, Thomas Demand et Rineke Dijkstra présentent de leur côté une vision froide et en apparence objective du monde extérieur, tandis que Richard Billingham, Nan Goldin ou encore Wolfgang Tillmans donnent à voir des détails intimes de leur vie privée. Entre les mains de Luc Delahaye et d'Allan Sekula, la photographie est un moyen de créer un travail documentaire, alors que pour d'autres encore, comme Cindy Sherman ou Gillian Wearing, l'image photographique devient un réceptacle de valeurs personnelles, sociales et culturelles dans un monde saturé d'images. Au fil de sept chapitres richement illustrés, Charlotte Cotton mène une analyse originale du travail des artistes les plus importants dans ce domaine et de leurs œuvres clés, et livre ainsi une introduction subtile et exigeante à une forme qui domine la scène artistique en ce début de XXIe siècle.
