Résumé:
S’il est indéniable que les droits et les acquis des femmes ont fait un bond vertigineux depuis plus d’un siècle en Occident, il n’en reste pas moins que la lutte pour l’égalité femme/homme n’est pas un chemin pavé de roses où les droits les plus fondamentaux sont sanctuarisés et acquis pour toujours. Aujourd’hui l’art n’est plus un interdit lorsqu’on naît de sexe féminin(...)

Résumé:
S’il est indéniable que les droits et les acquis des femmes ont fait un bond vertigineux depuis plus d’un siècle en Occident, il n’en reste pas moins que la lutte pour l’égalité femme/homme n’est pas un chemin pavé de roses où les droits les plus fondamentaux sont sanctuarisés et acquis pour toujours. Aujourd’hui l’art n’est plus un interdit lorsqu’on naît de sexe féminin mais ce n’est pas pour autant que les obstacles sont tous levés. Ces femmes ont des destins extraordinaires, la force morale et psychique dont elles ont du faire preuve pour continuer à créer malgré les épreuves force l’admiration comme le constat qu’elles n’ont pas mis leur énergie à se faire connaître mais plutôt à persévérer.

Résumé:
Just Above Midtown (or JAM) was a New York art gallery and self-described laboratory for experimentation established in 1974 by Linda Goode Bryant with the intention of presenting African American artists “on the same platform with other established artists.” A hub for conceptual art, abstraction, performance, and video, JAM was a Black space open to artists of different races, generations, and educational backgrounds. The gallery, which was open until 1986, cultivated debate and prioritized process, collaboration, and the needs of artists over the demands of the art market. Published in conjunction with a path-making exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, this richly illustrated catalogue provides the most complete account to date of the gallery’s history, with an emphasis on rarely seen artworks, archival materials, and the recollections of those who were there.

Résumé:
Depuis deux décennies, le dessin suscite un intérêt grandissant auprès du public, des institutions et des artistes. Dépassant le cadre de l’esquisse et du croquis, il constitue un art à part entière et se déploie sur de multiples surfaces. Présentant le travail de 80 artistes — femmes et hommes — contemporains, Barbara Soyer dresse dans ce livre un panorama surprenant et varié du médium. L’ouvrage multiplie les approches et donne de l’espace à des voix plurielles, qui traduisent la liberté et la richesse du dessin contemporain. Dessins préparatoires, autonomes, figuratifs, abstraits, quasi photographiques, picturaux, en volume, en noir et blanc ou en couleurs ; travaux à l’encre, au pastel, à l’aquarelle ou à la gouache ; œuvres sur papier, toile, carton, mur ou textile : les créations dévoilées dans ce livre disent toutes quelque chose de ce que sont le dessin et le monde d’aujourd’hui.

Résumé:
This publication is an up-to-the-minute survey of current global developments in contemporary sculpture and its close relative, installation. The book is presenting a cross-generational survey of contemporary artists from 27 countries. Chosen from more than 500 nominations by international critics, curators, art historians and creative writers, Vitamin 3-D’s 117 established and emerging artists were selected on the basis that they have made a significant contribution to sculpture and installation (in their broadest sense) in the last five years. Vitamin 3-D allows the reader to look at the medium in detail, to study sculpture’s unique properties in relation to itself, in relation to contemporary art and in relation to the world at large. An ongoing fascination with the key issues of modern sculpture, from the readymade to the specific object, today drives many artists to return to those issues again and again, with fresh and often surprising results.

Résumé:
This book is an addition to the history of women during America's Gilded Age. Wanda M. Corn takes as her topic the grand neo-classical Woman's Building at the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago, a structure celebrating modern woman's progress in education, arts, and sciences. Looking closely at the paintings and sculptures women artists made to decorate the structure, including the murals by Mary Cassatt and Mary MacMonnies, Corn uncovers an unspoken but consensual program to visualize a history of the female sex and promote an expansion of modern woman's opportunities. Beautifully written, with informative sidebars by Annelise K. Madsen and artist biographies by Charlene G. Garfinkle, this volume illuminates the originality of the public images female artists created in 1893 and inserts them into the complex discourse of fin de siècle woman's politics. The Woman's Building offered female artists an unprecedented opportunity to create public art and imagine an historical narrative that put women rather than men at its center.
