Résumé:
Du nord au sud du Portugal, les édifices resplendissent grâce aux reflets des azulejos. Ces carreaux de faïence polychromes, initialement à dominante bleue, sont l’élément constant de l’architecture portugaise depuis plusieurs siècles. Médaillons religieux au-dessus des linteaux, frises encadrant portes et fenêtres, lambris tapissant de longs murs, habillage de façades entières, ils brillent de leur présence à chaque coin de rue et nul ne peut échapper à leur pouvoir de fascination. Lointains descendants des céramiques perses, les premiers azulejos hispano-mauresques connus datent du xve siècle. Depuis cinq siècles, les azulejos sont le miroir du Portugal. Si sur eux ont glissé le soleil, la pluie et les jours, ils ont fixé, au fil de l’histoire du pays, l’esprit et le goût de toute une nation, au point d’en devenir un des symboles les plus reconnaissables. Passant par plusieurs périodes, dont celle de la fin du xviie siècle où les azulejos sont exclusivement peints en bleu cobalt, au xixe siècle ils connaissent une production industrielle et inventive qui accompagnera le revêtement total en azulejos à patron des murs extérieurs des édifices. Cette mode – et choix aussi lié à l’humidité – est très présente au nord du Portugal et notamment à Porto. Belle ville, Porto offre au passant un choix surprenant de styles. Les lambris d’azulejos suivent les grands courants stylistiques : romantisme, purement hygiénique, Art nouveau, Art déco, estampage géométrique, abstrait, publicitaire, etc. Ce livre propose un aperçu de ces fresques et façades curieuses et uniques que le visiteur pourra découvrir au gré de ses promenades, et précise leur localisation dans la ville. Un livre témoin, découverte ou souvenir de cet art de l’azulejo dans lequel Porto excelle.

Throughout the 1950s and '60s, as the ballpoint became cheaper and more accessible, Alberto Giacometti, Jean Dubuffet, Andy Warhol, Francis Bacon, Nam June Paik, Louise Bourgeois, and many others, sketched with the pens. Today, those who make art with ballpoint pen are no longer confined by size or style. They draw on sculpture, wallpaper, canvas, architecture, and 50-foot sheets of paper, depicting a wide range of subjects - from psychologically charged portraits to mutant animals to abstract scribbles. This book features 30 artists from around the world who are currently creating masterpieces with ballpoint, and discusses their methods, the messages in their work, and their personal connections to the pen.

If Mars is the answer, what is the question? Who wants to live forever? The world of tomorrow is shaped by emerging design and the technology of today. Bringing together a range of objects either newly released or in development, "The Future Starts Here" begins to imagine where our society might be headed. Cute but intelligent robots, massive unmanned aircraft that deliver internet access, crowdfunded buildings, tools printed in space, mysterious black boxes that understand human genetic codes--how can these objects affect the way we live, learn, and love? And how are they challenging our understanding of what it means to be an individual, a citizen, a crowd, or a species?

Best known for his evocative paintings of war-ravaged landscapes and his quasi-Surrealist visions of the English countryside, Nash was also a consummate photographer, who believed that the camera could reveal aspects of the world that the painter could not. Beginning in 1930, he regularly experimented with photography, working with a No. 1A pocket Kodak series 2 camera. Including a highly informative contextual essay by Simon Grant, this publication explores the experimental nature of Nash’s output and the intensity and power of his photographic vision.
