Résumé:
Among LeWitt's great contributions to art was the invention of his own economic model Not to Be Sold For More Than $100 presents a comprehensive overview of conceptualist pioneer Sol LeWitt’s numbered R Series drawings, which he created from approximately 1971 to 1979. As early as 1967, LeWitt had started making cut, folded and torn works, which he intended would always sell for $100. “His wall drawings were already selling for thousands of dollars, so he wanted to have some artwork that everybody could buy,” notes Jason Rulnick. This body of work consists of over 800 folded, torn and cut paper works, including cut maps, reproductions, and manipulated silver gelatin photographs. Thanks to extensive research throughout various private and public collections around the world, this volume includes over 100 color plates, along with an index/description of all 870 known works, information that has been made available through the artist's day books and journals uncovered (in the studio) by Veronica Roberts.

Résumé:
Ce numéro des Cahiers thématiques propose une ouverture théorique autour des « pratiques du langage » dans leurs relations à la création, au sens large. Bien qu’essentiellement axée sur l’architecture, cette question est abordée de façon transversale, et suscite une approche interdisciplinaire (arts / littérature / philosophie, notamment). Il est conçu autour de dix-huit essais. Ceux-ci entrecroisent écrits d’architectes (de J.N.L. Durand et J.Guadet à Le Corbusier, A. Rossi, R. Koolhaas et Ant Farm), d’ingénieur (H. Hossdorf) de musiciens (A.Schönberg, L. Nono), d’artiste (D. Graham), de linguiste (Hjemslev), de philosophes (L.Wittgenstein, Th.W. Adorno, M. Cacciari, S. Toulmin), et d’écrivains-essayistes (de W.H. Pater à Th. Mann, M. Blanchot et J. L. Borges). Les auteurs : Guillemette Morel-Journel, Sylvain Malfroy, Françoise Bradfer, Gérard Engrand, Daniel Treiber, Guy Rumé, Frédéric Yvan, Joëlle Prugnaud, Philippe Boudon, Caroline Maniaque, Christian Hauer, Jean Attali, Joëlle Caullier, Séverine Bridoux, Frank Vermandel, Antonia Soulez, Jean-Claude Vigato, et Marie-Céline Masson.

Résumé:
Never before has the everyday soundtrack of urban space been so cacophonous. Since the 1970s, sound researchers have attempted to classify noise, music, and everyday sounds using concepts such as Pierre Shafer's sound object and R. Murray Schafer's soundscape. Recently, the most significant team of soundscape researchers in the world has been concerned with the effects of sounds on listeners. In a multidisciplinary work spanning musicology, electro-acoustic composition, architecture, urban studies, communication, phenomenology, social theory, physics, and psychology, Jean-François Augoyard, Henry Torgue, and their associates at the Centre for Research on Sonic Space and the Urban Environment (CRESSON) in Grenoble, France, provide an alphabetical sourcebook of eighty sonic/auditory effects. Their accounts of sonic effects such as echo, anticipation, vibrato, and wha-wha integrate information about the objective physical spaces in which sounds occur with cultural contexts and individual auditory experience. "Sonic experience" attempts to rehabilitate general acoustic awareness, combining accessible definitions and literary examples with more in-depth technical information for specialists.

Résumé:
The history of the book in Tibet involves more than literary trends and trade routes. Functioning as material, intellectual, and symbolic object, the book has been an instrumental tool in the construction of Tibetan power and authority, and its history opens a crucial window onto the cultural, intellectual, and economic life of an immensely influential Buddhist society.Spanning the fourteenth to the eighteenth centuries, Kurtis R. Schaeffer envisions the scholars and hermits, madmen and ministers, kings and queens who produced Tibet's massive canons. He describes how Tibetan scholars edited and printed works of religion, literature, art, and science and what this indicates about the interrelation of material and cultural practices. The Tibetan book is at once the embodiment of the Buddha's voice, a principal means of education, a source of tradition and authority, an economic product, a finely crafted aesthetic object, a medium of Buddhist written culture, and a symbol of the religion itself.

Résumé:
Line B. Løkken takes her point of departure in documentary strategies, but empties her pictures of obvious action. The specific place is allowed to appear through isolated objects and tableaux which represent something larger. In this publication Løkken penetrates to a backdrop of heritage and memories by way of a place that seems impregnated with human activity. The motifs appear to be linked to the idea of the humble cottage. Here there is space for potentially nostalgic bric-à-brac, but also objects with an unclear practical purpose. Løkken’s title plays on a typical spring game, and interweaves images of Scrabble, piles of chalk and an old crossword book. On the opposite face of the squares and alphabet dice of the Scrabble box (which quietly spell b-r-ø-l – “roar”) is a horn on which some tufts of grass have been caught. Maturing, aging and new freshness play together over the pages, also in tactile and colouristic ways.
