Résumé:
Artistic genius, political activist, painter and decorator, mythic legend or notorious graffiti artist? The work of Banksy is unmistakable, except maybe when it’s squatting inthe Tate or New York’s Metropolitan Museum. Banksy is responsible for decorating the streets, walls, bridges and zoos of towns and cites throughout the world. Witty and subversive, his stencils show monkeys with weapons of mass destruction, policeman with smiley faces, rats with drills and umbrellas.If you look hard enough you’ll find your own. His statements, incitements, ironies and epigrams are by turns intelligent and cheeky comments on everything from the monarchy and capitalism to the war in Iraq and farm animals. His identity remains unknown, but his work is prolific. And now for the first time, he’s putting together the best of his work – old and new in a fully illustrated colour volume.

Résumé:
Recent years have seen the creation of many new parks, gardens, forests, and valleys where modern sculpture and nature form a special bond. Designed nature serves as an inspiring setting for artworks that in turn enliven and animate the vibrant tension between the artificial and natural aspects of the grounds. This guidebook presents some eighty parks from eighteen different European countries. Each park and the artworks in it are presented with photographs, plans, and texts. The parks include both classics like the Fondation Maeght in Saint-Paul de Vence, which attracts more than two hundred thousand visitors a year, and the Louisiana Museum in Humlebaek as well as new parks like the Europos Parkas in Vilnius, Sculpture at Schoenthal in Switzerland, and the Österreichische Skulpturenpark in Graz.

Résumé:
Trafic routier, nuisances sonores, pollution de l'air, globalisation de l'offre commerciale, cloisonnement des espaces et des usages, 'la plus belle avenue du monde' est contrariée. Ses places et ses jardins, désertés par les Parisiens, doivent aujourd'hui engager leur mutation et permettre à chacun de se réapproprier ce patrimoine exceptionnel. Au-delà des questions urbaines, les enjeux du nouveau régime climatique doivent présider à cette transformation. Les défis sont nombreux : diminuer le nombre et l'intensité des îlots de chaleur, rendre les sols plus perméables ; libérer, unifier et augmenter les espaces verts ; favoriser les mobilités douces ; valoriser le patrimoine existant ; construire sans consommer davantage ; continuer à croître sans aggraver la dette environnementale, inventer de nouveaux types de financements et de partenariats... L'étude ''Champs-Elysées, histoire & perspectives'', menée par l'agence PCA-STREAM à l'initiative du Comité Champs-Elysées, engage la relecture de la construction urbaine et symbolique de ce territoire. Elle en fait le diagnostic au regard des problématiques locales et des enjeux contemporains pour offrir une vision nouvelle, qui s'appuie sur le travail collaboratif d'une large équipe d'experts internationaux - chercheurs, historiens, acteurs économiques et culturels, scientifiques, artistes... Les attendus et calculs démontrent la faisabilité de cette transformation et, par anticipation, la possible évolution des espaces publics et touristiques dans les métropoles de demain.

Résumé:
In this book, Edwin Heathcote looks at the cultural impact of street furniture using photography as a measure of how these things have become indispensable components of the cityscape. Based mainly in and on London – but including New York, Paris and Budapest – Heathcote uses history, personal reflection and the lenses of photographers to examine the status of these urban artefacts in both the contemporary imagination and the city streets themselves. It looks at the changing landscape of the cityscape and the way in which street furniture has been adapted to address new technologies, the culture of surveillance and shifts in taste, orthodoxy and material culture. On the Street looks at the language of street furniture reflected through the gaze of photography and contemporary culture. It is a book about the elements of the streetscape which can exert an increasing impact on our interaction with the cities we inhabit.

Résumé:
Voilà maintenant quarante ans que le graffiti moderne s'est emparé de nos métropoles. Tendance de l'art urbain, le sticker art a connu un développement récent tel qu'il supplante parfois le graffiti classique. Tout en introduisant une forme d'expression nouvelle, les autocollants et affiches, faciles et rapides à coller, permettent une diffusion sensiblement plus importante. Expliquer l'incroyable ascension du sticker art tout en retraçant de manière engageante une scène vaste et mouvante est l'une des premières ambitions de ce livre. C'est donc un échantillon de techniques et d'artistes qui est présenté ici, des pionniers tels Swoon, Shepard Fairey et Invader, jusqu'aux stars montantes.
