Résumé:
Publication de l'exposition thématique qui a regroupé des photographes du Québec et de la Catalogne. Se basant sur la prémisse que l'art contemporain a de plus en plus recours au concept et aux diverses interprétations de la maison, chaque artiste présente un regard personnel sur les croisements entre les endroits publics et les endroits personnels, révélant des lieux où l'architecture s'intègre dans la vie quotidienne. L'essai nous dirige à travers l'oeuvre de chaque artiste, soit par observations ou par analyses qui suggèrent la narration qui émerge des différents endroits représentés par des paysages, banlieues, villes ou maisons. Parmi les artistes québécois on retrouve Jocelyne Alloucherie, Nicolas Baier, Alain Paiement et Claire Savoie et Jordi Colomer, Anna Ferrer, Perejaume et Xavier Ribas pour la Catalogne. Cette publication est la plus récente dans une série qui trace un lien entre ces deux âmes-soeurs séparées par un océan. Produit en collaboration avec Tinglato 2, Centre d'art contemporani à Tarragone. En français, anglais et catalan. / Publication of a thematic exhibition featuring leading photographers from Québec, Canada, and Catalunya, Spain. Working from a premise that contemporary art increasingly resorts to representations of the home, each artist presents a personal take on the intersections between public place and private space, revealing points where architecture fits into the lives of people. Through observation and analysis Jean suggests narratives that arise from the places depicted, be they landscape, the suburb, the city or the home. With the participation of Jocelyne Alloucherie, Nicolas Baier, Alain Paiement, Claire Savoie, Jordi Colomer, Anna Ferrer, Perejaume and Xavier Ribas. The latest in a series of publications from Vox drawing on kindred national spirits. Produced with Tinglado 2, Centre d'art contemporani. In English, French and Catalan.

Résumé:
In April 2003 010 Publishers of Rotterdam had been active for twenty years. During those two decades they have published five hundred books on architecture and design. This specialization reflects the enthusiasm of 010's founders, Hans Oldewarris and Peter de Winter, trained as an architect and an urban designer respectively at Delft University of Technology. Besides over one hundred monographs by and about Dutch architects, with Rem Koolhaas's "S,M,L,XL" as a provisional peak, 010 have published books on more wide-ranging architecture, interior design, photography, industrial design, graphic design, and the visual arts. These aspects include a keen interest in the theory and history of architecture and design. The lion’s share of this book is taken up with a catalogue spanning the period 1983-2003. Exhaustively annotated and illustrated, it gives not just the technical details of each book such as size, format, and binding style but also the authors, editors, photographers, graphic designers and printers. A brief description of the contents rounds off each entry. Comprehensive indexes give insight into who contributed to which book and in what way. In their introductory essay Ed Taverne and Cor Wagenaar give a picture of the practice of architectural publishing in the Netherlands during those years.

Résumé:
Nicholas Fox Weber, for thirty-four years head of the Albers Foundation, spent many years with Anni and Josef Albers, the only husband-and-wife artistic pair at the Bauhaus (she was a textile artist; he was a professor and an artist, in glass, metal, wood, and photography). The Alberses told him their own stories and described life at the Bauhaus with their fellow artists and teachers, Walter Gropius, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, as well as with these figures' lesser-known wives and girlfriends. In thisgroup biography, Weber brings to life the pioneering art school in Germany's Weimar and Dessau in the 1920s and early 1930s, and captures the spirit and flair with which these Bauhaus geniuses lived, as well as their consuming goal of making art and architecture.

Résumé:
Tokyo 1955–1970: A New Avant-Garde explores the extraordinary convergence of artists and other creators in Japan’s capital city during the radically transformative postwar period. Examining works from a range of media--painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, printmaking, video and film, as well as graphic design, architecture, musical composition and dance--this is the first publication in English to focus in depth on the full scope of postwar art in Japan. Essays by scholars Hayashi Michio and Miryam Sas and curator Mika Yoshitake discuss critical concepts in art and culture at this time, including “graphism,” which manifested itself across various mediums; the development of new sculptural languages; and the “intermedia” tendency that engendered provocative cross-pollination among artistic genres. Masatoshi Nakajima provides an illustrated chronology and Yuri Mitsuda supplies artist biographies.

Résumé:
In this in-depth analysis, Peter Muir argues that Gordon Matta-Clark’s ''Conical Intersect'' (1975) is emblematic of Henri Lefebvre’s understanding of art’s function in relation to urban space. By engaging with Lefebvre’s theory in conjunction with the perspectives of other writers, such as Michel de Certeau, Jacques Derrida, and George Bataille, the book elicits a story that presents the artwork’s significance, origins and legacies. ''Conical Intersect'' is a multi-media artwork, which involves the intersections of architecture, sculpture, film, and photography, as well as being a three-dimensional model that reflects aspects of urban, art, and architectural theory, along with a number of cultural and historiographic discourses which are still present and active. This book navigates these many complex narratives by using the central ’hole’ of ''Conical Intersect'' as its focal point.

Published to accompany the exhibition Italian Futurism, 1909–1944: Reconstructing the Universe opening at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 2014, this catalogue considerably advances the scholarship and understanding of an influential yet little-known twentieth- century artistic movement. This publication examines the historical sweep of Futurism from its inception with F.T. Marinetti’s manifesto in 1909 through the movement’s demise at the end of World War II. Presenting over 300 works created between 1909 and 1944, by artists, writers, designers and composers such as Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Anton Giulio Bragaglia, Fortunato Depero, Gerardo Dottori, Marinetti, Ivo Pannaggi, Rosa Rosà, Luigi Russolo, Tato and many others, this publication encompasses not only painting and sculpture, but also architecture, design, ceramics, fashion, film, photography, advertising, free-form poetry, publications, music, theater and performance.

Résumé:
Since the dawn of time, people have been fascinated by the idea of traveling to the stars, which is vividly illustrated by utopian and dystopian works of architecture, the visual arts, and cinematography. This book presents the results of in-depth research and extensive travels through a total of seven countries. Its prime focus is the impact of space exploration on everyday life in its pioneering age between the late 1950s and the 1980s and the persistence of related concepts and utopian ideas in today's society. Told as a visual story, it combines artistic and documentary photography, portraits of contemporary witnesses, landscape snapshots, and historical documents. It is in part an historical investigation since many of the pioneers of the space age are no longer alive and many of the formerly ubiquitous items have disappeared.

Résumé:
Le 28 juillet 1958, le cinéaste Alain Resnais partait au Japon tourner l'essentiel de ce qui allait devenir un film mythique de l'histoire du cinéma : Hiroshima mon amour. C'est son premier long-métrage et le premier scénario de l'écrivain Marguerite Duras. Le cinquantième anniversaire de ce tournage historique est l'occasion de proposer un regard nouveau sur ce film à travers des textes de Chihiro Minato, Marie-Christine de Navacelle, Dominique Noguez, et aussi d'un entretien avec Emmanuelle Riva. Un remarquable ensemble de photographies, qu'elle a prises avant le tournage, de la ville d'Hiroshima, de ses habitants et surtout de ses enfants, est présenté pour la première fois. Ces images exceptionnelles éclairent le film comme elles éclairent la résurrection, treize ans après le drame du 6 août 1945, de la première ville frappée par la bombe atomique.

Résumé:
Conceived as an illustrated “field guide” to the work of Danish artist Olafur Eliasson (b. 1967), this book features a substantial conversation between the artist and Tate curator Mark Godfrey, as well as a collection of short dialogues with a strikingly varied range of people working both inside and outside the arts—from anthropology, economics, political science, and biology to architecture and urbanism, dance, music, and food. Eliasson builds such conversations into his daily life and work. They help him not only to understand other people’s unique fields of knowledge, but also to ask, “What does my understanding of your knowledge do to my understanding of the world?” The interweaving of these texts with stunning photography of his remarkable and immersive works provides an insight into what Eliasson calls his ongoing aim of “reaching out into the world.”
