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.

Résumé:
From advertising and fashion to music and film, the psychedelic aesthetic defined the look of the 1960s. And yet neither the true scope of psychedelic art nor its key practitioners have ever been the subject of a thorough overview. "Electrical Banana" is the first definitive examination of the international language of psychedelia, focusing on the most important practitioners in their respective fields. Compiling hundreds of unseen images plus exclusive interviews and essays, it revises and expands the common perception of psychedelic art, revealing it to be more innovative, compelling and revolutionary than is usually acknowledged. "Electrical Banana" documents the great virtuosos of psychedelic art: men and women whose work combines avant-garde design with highly sophisticated image-making. Launching a million Day-glo dreams, the artists include: Marijke Koger, the Dutch artist responsible for dressing the Beatles; Mati Klarwein, who painted the cover for Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew"; Keiichi Tanaami, the Japanese master of psychedelic posters; Heinz Edelmann, the German illustrator and designer of the Beatles' animated film "Yellow Submarine"; Tadanori Yokoo, whose prints, books and fabrics defined the 1960s in Japan; Dudley Edwards, a painter, car decorator and graphic artist on the London rock scene; and the enigmatic Australian Martin Sharp, whose work for Cream and underground magazines made him a hippie household name in Europe. "Electrical Banana" features a lengthy historical essay and interviews with all of the artists.

Résumé:
In the 1970s, early in his career, Appelt first saw the spectacular cantilevered steel bridge, a marvel of 19th-century engineering spanning over 8,000 feet and still in regular use today. Fascinated by its kinetic and cinematic appearance, when he was invited to reflect on the works in the CCA’s collection, Appelt took the opportunity to revisit the bridge. He reframed it in light of his long-standing preoccupation with the analysis of architectural constructs in spatial and temporal terms, producing 312 black-and-white 35mm film stills as well as sound recordings. Eight large-scale photographic panels will be presented at the CCA, each comprising a montage of 39 of the film stills edited so as to propose a series of horizontal and vertical readings of the bridge. A selection of albums and photographs from the CCA’s Forth Bridge archives will also be presented accompanied by drawings from Appelt. The beautifully produced publication includes essays by Dieter Appel, Hubertus von Amelunxen, and Louise Désy, as well as a forword by Phyllis Lambert. Au début de sa carrière, dans les années 1970, Appelt avait vu pour la première fois ce spectaculaire pont cantilever en acier, une merveille de l’ingénierie du XIXe siècle, encore en service aujourd’hui, qui s’étend sur 8 000 pieds. Fasciné par son aspect cinétique et cinématique, Appelt a profité de cette invitation pour livrer une réflexion sur les œuvres de la collection du CCA et offrir ainsi une relecture du pont. Fidèle à son intérêt de longue date pour l’analyse spatiale et temporelle des constructions architecturales, il l’a recadré et a produit 312 photos de film 35 mm noir et blanc ainsi que des enregistrements sonores. Huit panneaux photographiques grand format seront exposés au CCA, chacun comportant un montage de 39 photos de films agencées de façon à proposer une série de lectures horizontales et verticales du pont. On pourra aussi voir une sélection d’albums et de photographies des archives du Forth Bridge du CCA, accompagnés de dessins d’Appelt. La publication contient des essais de Dieter Appelt, Hubertus von Amelunxen, et Louise Désy ainsi qu'une préface de Phyllis Lambert.

'Reading Wood' (Backwards) explores human and non-human entanglements, questioning what it means to restitute to the natural world. In 'Forest Futurism', Orlow shifts focus to plants’ lives beyond human time, blending film and 3D modeling to connect tree fossils’ deep past with future forest scenarios imagined through the voices of children. Set in South Tyrol, the project bridges local scientific research with global climate challenges, envisioningalternative, more-than-human futures.

Résumé:
In this book, curator Michelle White considers the unique and timely implications of how the artist Tacita Dean draws. Covering over three decades of work, from sweeping chalk landscapes to fleeting celestial phenomena on film, White proposes that the artist approaches drawing as an indeterminate journey of fate and folly, chance and medium. She argues that Dean’s strategy of adopting blindness to make an image is an urgent response to our culturally, technologically, and ecologically unstable moment. The text, illustrated with more than forty images, is based on seven years of conversations between the author and the artist.
