Résumé:
La photographie, images d’expression et d’émancipation des femmes à travers la prise de possession de leur corps par l’image. Les femmes et la photographie : deux univers contrariés et maintenus en marge de l’empirée artistique du XIXe siècle. Cet ouvrage raconte comment ces deux univers ont fait alliance, dans une symbiose incroyablement fertile. Les femmes ont alors fait preuve d’une capacité à affronter instinctivement, dans des conditions historiques données, certains refoulements culturels et sociaux caractéristiques du monde occidentalisé. A commencer par ceux du corps et du geste. Ainsi, à la même période où débutait le lent processus d’acceptation du corporel dans la sphère culturelle occidentale, de façon curieusement analogue, les femmes artistes s’en faisaient courageusement les interprètes – bien qu’au prix de nombreuses difficultés – car elles-mêmes avaient subi depuis des siècles le même phénomène de « relégation » des activités intellectuelles et artistiques. Cette poétique commune de récupération de la corporéité et de l’action, que certaines artistes parvinrent à interpréter de façon originale, anticipait le climat de recherche de la performance et de l’identité des années 1970, Douze artistes différentes, étudiées dans cet ouvrage, témoignent de cet engagement et de cette réalisation par la photographie : Alice Austen, Gertrude Arndt, Virginia Oldoini (Comtesse de Castiglione), Hannah Cullwick, Anne Brigman, Claude Cahun, Julia Margaret Cameron, Clementina Hawarden, Hannah Höch, Tina Modotti, Leni Riefenstahl et Madame Yevonde. Certaines ont été des artistes d’une façon assez ab-norme, et l’étiquette leur est appliquée de façon très élastique. D’autres, en revanche, ont pratiqué simultanément d’autres moyens d’expression. Mais, pour toutes, la photographie a été une occasion d’exhibitionnisme narcissique, de voyeurisme fétichiste, de travestissement identitaire, de recherche et de témoignage de leur propre identité sexuelle, de fragmentation et de reconstruction imaginaire du réel, de praxis et d’exaltation de la politique et de l’idéologie. En d’autres termes, la photographie a été vécue par elles comme possibilité de récits du corps et de l’action. Les raisons de cette relation dangereuse (femmes-photographie-corps-action) sont celles d’une véritable affinité élective, au point que la photographie, pour de nombreuses femmes, en Amérique singulièrement, a représenté dès la fin du XIXe siècle le territoire de leur émancipation sociale et économique.

"The Japanese photobook", 1912–1990 illustrates the development of photography as seen in photo publications in Japan--from the early influence of European and American pictorialism, the German Bauhaus and imperial military propaganda to the complete collapse and destruction of the country in 1945. Then followed a new beginning: with the unique self-determination of a young generation of photographers and visual artists highlighted by the Provoke style--an experimental Japanese photography magazine that had a profound effect on the medium in the 1970s and ‘80s--as well as protest and war documentation of the late 1950s to the early ‘70s, the signature Japanese photobook, as we have come to know it, was born.

En 74 images, Riding Modern Art regroupe 48 sculpteurs et 66 skateurs documentés par 43 photographes aux quatre coins du monde. Il s’agit pour Raphaël Zarka d’une réflexion sur la sculpture dans le cadre d’un questionnement plus général sur la notion d’espace public et des « pratiques d’espaces » des habitants, proche des réflexions de Michel de Certeau (L’Invention du Quotidien, I : Arts de faire, Gallimard, 1990).

One pairs artists and writers to think about this question. Eight photographers: Marco Breuer, Thomas Joshua Cooper, John Gossage, Trevor Paglen, Alison Rossiter, Victoria Sambunaris, Rebecca Norris Webb and James Welling were asked to submit one image on the theme of minimalism. Eight writers David Campany, Teju Cole, Christie Davis, John D’Agata, Michael Fried, Darius Himes, Leah Ollman and Laura Steward were enlisted to respond to those submissions, each paired with a specific image. The results offer a probing assessment of Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s maxim: “Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”

It concentrates on indefinable images with an open view, whose multi-layering requires slow reading.

Résumé:
In 1967, The Museum of Modern Art presented "New documents", a landmark exhibition organized by John Szarkowski that brought together a selection of works by three photographers whose individual achievements signaled the artistic potential for the medium in the 1960s and beyond: Diane Arbus, Lee Friedlander and Garry Winogrand. Though largely unknown at the time, these three photographers are now universally acknowledged as artists of singular talent within the history of photography. The exhibition articulated a profound shift in the landscape of 20th-century photography, and interest in the exhibition has only continued to expand. Yet, until now, there has been no publication that captures its content. Published in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the exhibition, Arbus Friedlander Winogrand features full-page reproductions of the 94 photographs included in the exhibition, along with Szarkowski’s original wall text, press release, installation views and an abundance of archival material. Essays by curator Sarah Hermanson Meister and critic Max Kozloff, who originally reviewed the exhibition for The Nation in 1967, critically situate the exhibition and its reception, and examine its lasting influence on the field of photography.

Résumé:
This book is a comprehensive investigation into photographic works by artists from the African continent and its diaspora. Taking the politics of the “colonial gaze” as its starting point, Events of the Social looks at the diverse complexity of the nineteenth-century archive through a selection of vintage portraits, cartes de visite, postcards and album pages. Three generations of African artists from the 1940s till now then chart the changing features of African societies through portraiture, exploring notions of the self, gender, sexuality, race, social status and politics. The book also examines landscape and the built environment, showing how architecture and spatial planning convey social order and ideology while reflecting experiences of migration, colonialism, war and industrialization. Another group of artists, born after the mid-1970s, explores issues of social identity, lineage, questions of belonging and personal experiences.
