"The City as a Resource" proposes a model of the city as a resource containing untapped possibilities and potentials for both individuals and society as a whole. This resource, however, is not inexhaustible; it will only be able to meet the needs of future generations if it is handled sustainably, rather than with an eye for short-term profits and partisan interests.

Résumé:
"The City as a Resource" proposes a model of the city as a resource containing untapped possibilities and potentials for both individuals and society as a whole. This resource, however, is not inexhaustible; it will only be able to meet the needs of future generations if it is handled sustainably, rather than with an eye for short-term profits and partisan interests. The challenge, then, is to conceive of the city as a regenerative circuit--a complex of spatial and aesthetic qualities that can be sustained and developed over time. The City as a Resource is edited by Nicolas Kretschmann, Mark Michaeli, Tim Rieniets and Christian Salewski, and uses texts, projects and examples to present state-of-the-art urban planning methods and strategies for handling cities as resources, giving new life and new meaning to the idea of sustainable urban design.

Résumé:
Être conçue pour ne pas être : tel est le destin de l’utopie. Cette impossibilité à exister dans l’espace réel, est le critère de qualification de l’utopie dans l’espace imaginaire. Par définition, une utopie n’a donc pas de lieu sur terre, et ce qui y a trouvé une place durable n’a pas la qualité d’utopie. Le projet dont l’histoire est racontée dans ce livre, celui du Fresnoy-Studio national des arts contemporains, s’est réalisé grâce au caractère utopique dont il s’était fait un impératif : paradoxe ? exception à la règle ? En tout cas, il ne fait aucun doute que toute inflexion du projet pour le rendre réalisable, l’aurait condamné à n’être jamais réalisé. Cela pose la question du moment, de la circonstance historique, où le politique, face auquel l’utopie se détermine en s’y opposant, a adopté comme critère de ses choix, et comme règle de son action, non plus l’économie mais l’esthétique. Ephémère moment d’une esthétique du politique. Écrit à la première personne, ce récit d’une grande réalisation publique s’appuie souvent sur des anecdotes et sur les relations entre individus singuliers, chères à la micro-histoire. Outre la genèse du Fresnoy-Studio national sur dix ans, entre 1987 et 1997, est ici brossé par touches un tableau des orientations nouvelles en matière de pédagogie de l’art et de formation des jeunes artistes (en France, en Europe et ailleurs), en fonction de la révolution des techniques, des langages artistiques, des moyens d’expression et de communication, à la fin du XXe siècle.

Résumé:
By many art history accounts, the art of the twentieth century was decided by Pablo Picasso and Marcel Duchamp. In these versions, Picasso stands for prolific production, a fierce expressionism, endless research of the picture plane and a sense of voracious creativity; whereas Duchamp stands for cerebral brilliance, rejection of optical pleasure and a subtle but(...)

Résumé:

In these versions, Picasso stands for prolific production, a fierce expressionism, endless research of the picture plane and a sense of voracious creativity; whereas Duchamp stands for cerebral brilliance, rejection of optical pleasure and a subtle but all-pervasive conceptual sabotage and irony. (Of course, they shared as many traits, including an appetite for provocation and the recognition of eros as a fundamental, animating life principle.) So who was right? This volume, published for a show at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, argues for both sides of the coin, looking at various aspects of both oeuvres, including Picasso’s fascination with the Minotaur and Duchamp’s Rrose Selavy alter ego. The book is appropriately divided in two halves separated by a reverse binding.

Résumé:
What is it to be a work of art? Renowned author and critic Arthur C. Danto addresses this fundamental, complex question. Part philosophical monograph and part memoiristic meditation, What Art Is challenges the popular interpretation that art is an indefinable concept, instead bringing to light the properties that constitute universal meaning. Danto argues that despite varied approaches, a work of art is always defined by two essential criteria: meaning and embodiment, as well as one additional criterion contributed by the viewer: interpretation. Danto crafts his argument in an accessible manner that engages with both philosophy and art across genres and eras, beginning with Plato’s definition of art in The Republic, and continuing through the progress of art as a series of discoveries, including such innovations as perspective, chiaroscuro, and physiognomy. Danto concludes with a fascinating discussion of Andy Warhol’s famous shipping cartons, which are visually indistinguishable from the everyday objects they represent.
