Résumé:
This massive new edition of See This Sound consists of two parts: the first, "Compendium," offers comprehensive scholarship on the relationship between images and sounds, exploring historical examples of multimedia art from Busby Berkeley and Oskar Fischinger to John Cage, Jordan Belson, Tony Conrad and Brian Eno, as well as strategies of montage, mapping and synesthetic effects. The second part, "Essays," offers in-depth studies on the historical development and theoretical framework of audiovisual culture, looking at image-sound relationships in popular culture, media aesthetics, pop music and "the musicalization of the visual arts in the twentieth century." As such, it offers an ambitious and definitive survey of the past and future of image-sound art.

Résumé:
Between 1961 and 1968, the magazine “Twen” produced a series of LP recordings in collaboration with the Philips record label. During this period, all editions of “Twen” were accompanied by LPs drawn from the realms of jazz, classical music, radio plays, world music, or pop. For the designs of his record covers, art director Willy Fleckhaus used Concrete Art by Karl Gerstner, Max Bill, and other dedicated graphic designers such as Heinz Edelmann and Günther Kieser. This now forgotten series, comprising around 70 disks, is a masterful instance of the conjunction of music and graphic design. In collaboration with music archives and private collections, this rare series is reunited in its entirety and documented in this publication.

Résumé:
'Cheap Rents … and de Kooning' revisits the New York downtown art scene between 1957 and 1963, when the Tenth Street galleries were the center of the art world and inexpensive lofts were still available. John Cohen was there, and portraying the artists' haunts--among them the Cedar Tavern, the Club and the Tanager Gallery--and creating a definitive photographic impression of a lively, hedonistic, highly sociable scene. Abstract Expressionists, Pop artists and Beat writers could be found at these bars and galleries; Willem de Kooning's studio was in the middle of the block, and is also documented here. This volume, by one of the leading chroniclers of the era, provides its richest and most intimate portrait.

Résumé:
The current boom in misogynistic dynamics and topoi builds on a long tradition of gender discrimination against women while also – as this issue argues – exploiting recent technological and political developments.

Résumé:
The current boom in misogynistic dynamics and topoi builds on a long tradition of gender discrimination against women while also – as this issue argues – exploiting recent technological and political developments. Rather than examining individual sexist practices or remarks in isolation, our current issue addresses misogyny as a cross-cultural phenomenon that expresses a deep-seated, albeit often unconscious, derogatory attitude toward women. In doing so, the focus is on how this attitude is manifested in literature, art, and pop culture, as well in prevailing media and sociopolitical conditions.

Artiste contemporain majeur, Sigmar Polke reste pourtant mal connu du public français. Interroger ses pratiques photographiques permet de mesurer l'importance d'expérimentations remontant aux années 1960. Xavier Domino nous présente, non sans humour, le large spectre des protocoles mis en œuvre et des résultats obtenus. À la description des éléments constitutifs de la «Polkographie», fait suite un «No medium's land» où voisinent photocopies et peintures; enfin, en «Photopolkie», le photographique ouvre à une compréhension globale de l'œuvre, et fonde son originalité, au croisement improbable du Pop Art et du post-modernisme.

Artisanal production in Cairo takes place in open-air workshops and directly on the street. Stucco producers in the city are grouped into clusters where interior walls and facades are covered with patterns and serve as a catalogue of ornaments. The result is often chaotic and grotesque.

Résumé:
Artisanal production in Cairo takes place in open-air workshops and directly on the street. Stucco producers in the city are grouped into clusters where interior walls and facades are covered with patterns and serve as a catalogue of ornaments. The result is often chaotic and grotesque. Decorative styles of the Belle Époque are deconstructed and reassembled as a spatial collage, while symbols from pop culture are juxtaposed with historical forms. In his photos, Luc Merx reveals these unique aesthetics and diverse references to building practice and art history. The plaster casts reflect Egypt’s contradictory relationship to its colonial past, to modernity, and to the country’s own identity.

Résumé:
This volume considers existing contexts as an opportunity to use the potential of place, as well as the creativity of inhabitants and users and the power of the social and urban fabric, to respond to needs and urgent topics. It outlines eleven actions, compelling examples from different places and design practices worldwide, which in turn are related to an array of architects, design professionals, and other specialists working in art, biology, ecology, fashion, pop culture, and philosophy. As such, it generates a broader framework of thought in order to demonstrate how makers with diverse design attitudes are responding to today’s spatial, social, environmental, and aesthetic challenges.

Résumé:
The essays in this collection extend from her 1969 text, ‘On Pop Art, Permissiveness and Planning’ (written three years before the publication of Venturi, Scott Brown and Izenour’s seminal book Learning From Las Vegas) to ‘Towards an Active Socioplastics’ from 2007, which offers an overview of Scott Brown’s education and the gestation of her key architectural and urban ideas. In between, eight other essays from the 1970s, 80s and 90s, offer insights not only into Scott Brown’s evolving architectural imagination but touch upon the changing collective ideas and aspirations of design education and practice. The collection is bookended by two additional texts by Scott Brown, a foreword and an afterword, addressing specifically the act of writing about architecture.
