Résumé:
This retrospective catalogue looks at the full sweep of Winogrand’s career. Drawing from his enormous output, which at the time of his death included thousands of rolls of undeveloped film and unpublished contact sheets, the book will serve as a substantial compendium of Winogrand’s work to date. Illustrated with both iconic images and photographs that have never been seen before now, and featuring essays by leading scholars of American photography, Garry Winogrand presents a vivid portrait of an artist who unflinchingly captured America’s swings between optimism and upheaval in the postwar era.

Résumé:
Le Corbusier: Secret Photographer provides new insights into Le Corbusier's visual imagination, his changing attitudes towards nature and materials in the 1930s, and his distrust of progress. While Le Corbusier always claimed that he saw no virtue in taking photographs, he actually bought three cameras and took several hundred photographs between 1907 and 1917, many of them of publishable quality. In 1936 he acquired a 16mm movie camera and took 120 sequences of film and nearly 6,000 photographs with it. This previously unpublished material is the basis for the publication.

Résumé:
Taking account of new developments such as Facebook and the iPhone, Charlie Gere charts in detail the history of digital culture, as marked by responses to digital technology in art, music, design, film, literature and other areas. After tracing the historical development of digital culture, Gere argues that it is actually neither radically new nor technologically driven: digital culture has its roots in the eighteenth century and the digital mediascape we swim in today was originally inspired by informational needs arising from industrial capitalism, contemporary warfare and counter-cultural experimentation, among other social changes.

Résumé:
While destruction as a theme can be traced throughout art history, from the early atomic age it has remained a pervasive and compelling element of contemporary visual culture. Damage Control features the work of more than 40 international artists working in a range of media--painting, sculpture, photography, film, installation, and performance--who have used destruction as a means of responding to their historical moment and as a strategy for inciting spectacle and catharsis, as a form of rebellion and protest, or as an essential part of re-creation and restoration.

Résumé:
Although graphic props such as invitations, letters, tickets, and packaging are rarely seen close-up by a cinema audience, they are designed in painstaking detail. Dublin-based designer Annie Atkins invites readers into the creative process behind her intricately designed, rigorously researched, and visually stunning graphic props. These objects may be given just a fleeting moment of screen time, but their authenticity is vital and their role is crucial: to nudge both the actors on set and the audience just that much further into the fictional world of the film.

The word Gothic conjures associations with the dark and melancholy, the weird and feared, and haunted places and people. In this book, Roger Luckhurst offers readers an unprecedented look at the ways this uncanny style has manifested itself through architecture, literature, film, art, video games, and more. From the works of Victor Hugo and E. T. A. Hoffmann to Southern Gothic, ancient folklore, and classic horror movies, Luckhurst explores how an aesthetic that began in the margins has been reinvented through the centuries to become part of mainstream global culture.

Résumé:
In this provocative collection of essays, films as diverse as "The Man with a Movie Camera", "Annie Hall", "Street of Crocodiles", "Boyz N the Hood", "Three Colors Red", and "Crash" are examined in terms of the relationship between cinema and the changing urban experience in Europe and the United States since the early twentieth century. Peter Jelavich, for example, links the suppression of the creative, liberal Weimar Berlin in the 1931 film "Berlin Alexanderplatz" to the rise of the Nazi regime and the end of one of the great eras of modernist experimentation in German visual culture; Jessie Labov considers Kieslowski’s treatment of the Warsaw housing blok in "Dekalog" in terms of Solidarity’s strategy of resisting totalitarianism in 1980's Poland; Allan Siegel examines the motif of the city in a broad range of American and international cinema to demonstrate how film and society since the 1960's have been driven by the fading of mass political radicalism and the triumph of privatization and capital; Paula Massood uses the socially illuminating theories of Mikhail Bakhtin to examine the representation of the ghetto and urban underclass in recent African-American films such as "Menace II Society"; and Matthew Gandy examines the focus on disease in Todd Haynes’s "[Safe]" as a metaphor for social and spatial breakdown in contemporary Los Angeles.

Résumé:
La scène artistique de Los Angeles, lieu multiculturel complexe, est unique par sa qualité protéiforme, dont le spectre se développe de la culture californienne au cinéma hollywoodien, des mouvements underground à Disneyland. Elle s'est affirmée durant ces dernières années comme une force alternative à la situation new-yorkaise, le lieu d'un bouillonnement et d'une multiplicité artistique qui fascine aujourd'hui les créateurs du monde entier. Une large sélection de peintures, sculptures, installations, photographies, films et vidéos retrace l'histoire multiforme de cette scène particulière, depuis son émergence au début des années soixante jusqu'en 1985 (art de l'assemblage, Pop art, Minimalisme californien ou "Finish Fetish", du mouvement "Light and Space", de l'art conceptuel, de la performance, du féminisme, des installations, de la vidéo et du film expérimental au travers une sélection de nombreux artistes). Cet ouvrage prend la forme d'une large chronique, abondamment illustrée, de l'histoire de la création à Los Angeles et des relations que cette scène a entretenues avec la France. Selon un ordre chronologique, pour chaque année seront rassemblés des textes de l'époque, des photographies des oeuvres et des événements principaux. Des essais originaux sur la littérature et le cinéma, sur le film expérimental (par O'Neil), sur la musique, deux textes écrits par des artistes et une présentation de la scène artistique de Los Angeles par Catherine Grenier complètent cet ouvrage.
