Résumé:
''Workbooks'' is an extensive book that gathers together a creative lifetime of collecting, imagining, sketching and recording by British artist Nigel Shafran from 1984-2024. Below, writer David Chandler reflects on Shafran's Workbooks. ''These working documents are informal books, but, partly in preparation for decisions that will later define the actual publications, they are carefully assembled and richly embellished. Each is filled with drawings, notes and bits of everyday ephemera as well as photographs, and each has a particular aesthetic, with an easy feeling for material craft as well as visual simplicity and clarity that is characteristic of Shafran’s intuitive organising principles and his entire working process''.

Rahim Fortune: Hardtack
$110.00

Résumé:
Flour, water, and salt. These are the sole ingredients that make Hardtack: a Civil War-era food long-associated with survivalism, land migration, and its extremely long shelf life. Drawing from this history as a metaphor for the long-enduring nature of Black culture and traditions, Hardtack uncovers the roots that tie Fortune's native landscape to the conflicts and(...)

Résumé:
Flour, water, and salt. These are the sole ingredients that make Hardtack: a Civil War-era food long-associated with survivalism, land migration, and its extremely long shelf life. Drawing from this history as a metaphor for the long-enduring nature of Black culture and traditions, Hardtack uncovers the roots that tie Fortune's native landscape to the conflicts and nuances associated with the post-emancipation Americas. In the follow-up to his breakout monograph I can't stand to see you cry, Fortune borrows from the language of vernacular and archival photography to interrogate the historical relationship of his community to photography; rooted in the landscape, Fortune often uses sites of historical and cultural interest as a guide but not a subject, implying the deep ties that bind modern Black communities resiliently to their regions, in the face of both adversity and joy.

What can the placement of greenery next to the works of Mark Rothko, Henri Matisse, and many others tell us about the relationship between culture and nature? A question that Meijer started to investigate in her first artist's book, 'The Plant Collection' (ROMA, 2019), on plants in the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and continues at this museum in New York.

Résumé:
In the final days before the fall of Saigon in 1975, 125,000 Vietnamese who were evacuated or who made their own way out of the country resettled in the United States. Finding themselves in unfamiliar places yet still connected in exile, these refugees began building their own communities as memorials to a lost homeland. Known both officially and unofficially as Little Saigons, these built landscapes offer space for everyday activities as well as the staging of cultural heritage and political events. "Building Little Saigon" examines nearly fifty years of city building by Vietnamese Americans-who number over 2.2 million today. Author Erica Allen-Kim highlights architecture and planning ideas adapted by the Vietnamese communities who, in turn, have influenced planning policies and mainstream practices. Allen-Kim traveled to ten Little Saigons in the United States to visit archives, buildings, and public art and to converse with developers, community planners, artists, business owners, and Vietnam veterans. By examining everyday buildings-who made them and what they mean for those who know them-"Building Little Saigon" shows us the complexities of migration unfolding across lifetimes and generations.

Résumé:
A radical pioneer of Bauhaus textile design, Otti Berger created fabrics that fundamentally changed the understanding of what textiles could be and do. A core member of the textile faculty at the Bauhaus alongside Anni Albers and Gunta Stölzl, Berger also was an entrepreneur in the frenzied culture of early 1930s Berlin. Working closely with architects of the New Objectivity movement such as Lilly Reich, Ludwig Hilberseimer and Hans Scharoun, she designed upholstery, wall fabrics, curtains and floor coverings that explored novel production methods, and thereby redefined the relationship between aesthetics and function.

Résumé:
In ''Relative Moments'', Deanna Dikeman chronicles ordinary moments of her family’s activities. From gardening to cutting cake, from filling up the bird bath to mending a piece of clothing, from mowing the lawn to picking rhubarb, one gets to discover an everyday that might otherwise go unnoticed. In this book, which was generously edited and sequenced — 200 photographs in total — one is not only meant to see the moment shot in one photograph, but all the moments that compose the story. This project captures a visual history of the photographer family’s life, yet, there is an ongoing narrative embedded in these photographs that conveys larger, more universal truths about American culture, familiarity, and the endless source of everyday wonder that surrounds us.

Résumé:
Les aménagements urbains pour les Jeux olympiques 2024 ont suscité de vives résistances, notamment à Saint-Denis et Aubervilliers, au nord de Paris. Mais, au-delà des JO, c’est un immense projet de renouvellement urbain qui se pro?le avec le Grand Paris d’ici 2030. Dans les banlieues populaires, de nombreuses habitantes et habitants sont expulsés, expropriés de leur maison, relogés dans un autre logement social et doivent laisser place aux 68 futures gares du nouveau réseau de transport du Grand Paris Express. Autour de chacune de ces gares, de grands projets urbains prévoient la démolition de milliers de logements sociaux, reconstruits plus loin, plus chers, tandis que les prix immobiliers augmentent rapidement dans le parc privé. En décalage complet avec les besoins des classes populaires qui se paupérisent depuis des décennies, la Métropole du Grand Paris se construit pour tenir son rang dans la concurrence internationale, en rentabilisant le sol urbain et en cherchant à attirer de nouveaux investisseurs.

Résumé:
Jamais le monde animal n’a été l’objet d’une si vive attention des scientifiques, des médias et du grand public. Jamais il n’y a eu autant d’animaux tués pour notre consommation et jamais le danger d’extinction d’une partie du monde animal n’a été aussi éminent à cause du réchauffement climatique, des pratiques de déforestation et autres formes d’emprises humaines et de spoliations de la nature. Pourtant, il n’existait jusqu’ici aucun dictionnaire proposant une synthèse des connaissances dans le champ en pleine expansion des études animalières. Résultat de quatre ans de séminaire à la Maison des Sciences de l’Homme, ce dictionnaire réunit 41 autrices et 39 auteurs, historiennes et historiens, historiennes de l’art, philosophes, juristes, anthropologues, vétérinaires, scientifiques qui font le point en 125 notices sur une dimension désormais vitale de notre survie dans l’anthropocène : de quels savoirs disposons-nous sur le monde animal pour envisager un futur avec lui? Comment concevoir un avenir avec tous les animaux, pour former, dans la multitude des approches du savoir, une communauté de vivants ensemble?
