Lauren Huret travaille sur un aspect particulièrement invisible d'Internet : l'effacement d'images qui, paradoxalement, laissent des traces.0Pour gérer le flux d'images violentes, offensives et traumatisantes qui se déversent sans cesse sur les plateformes tels que Facebook ou Instagram, ceux-ci font appel à des entreprises de sous-traitance qui emploient des centaines de milliers de personnes dont la profession, content manager, consiste à trier et censurer ces contenus.0Exposés à des dizaines de milliers d'images traumatisantes chaque jour, soumis à des conditions de travail effrayantes, les content managers ? qui travaillent principalement à Manille, aux Philippines ? n'ont accès à aucun support psychologique et sont tenus au silence par des rapports obscurs liés à la sous-traitance.0Cette publication présente les recherches et entretiens de l'artiste, comme partie intégrante de sa pratique. Ces textes fournissent des informations de fond qui resituent les sujets abordés dans l'exposition dans un contexte philosophique, psychologique et critique des nouvelles technologies.

There & Back

  • Categories: Art

The exhibition invites viewers to undertake a two-way journey, from Southto North, and examine the similarities and differences between the work ofthose artists who emigrated and the work of those who stayed. It also invitesus to reevaluate our concept of what is African. The works represent several generations of artists who have penetrated international circuits in recent years. Frdric Bruly Bouabr (Ivory Coast) serves as the starting point for a dialogue between the local and the global with works that challenge every possible preconceived idea about tradition and contemporaneity. In turn, these establish a harmonious dialogue with the works of other artists such as William Kentridge (Sou...

The imagery in this book, which revolves around radial shapes and concepts, also forms the basis of a video work in the exhibition. Specific for the book is the use of two separate layers of black ink, allowing Suter to create double images and to merge patterns and screens. Departing from pages scanned from her collection of second hand tomes--mainly concerning natural science, precision machinery, and art history--Suter freely manipulates them and reorders them within the space of a book, which can be seen as a condensed exhibition on paper. The result is a journey along visual phenomena that reconnects us with the endless curiosity and patience of our younger selves leafing through an encyclopedia, unattended and unable to read, yet all the more sensitive to its inner visual rhymes and correspondences. With a text by Henri Michaux from 1968 [in English translation and French].

This spectacular volume reproduces in full color some 150 pieces from the Anthony Petullo Collection, an extraordinary assemblage of paintings and drawings produced by individuals working outside the perimeter of conventional art training and traditions. Some of the pieces are fanciful, even whimsical. Others are haunting in their unembellished depiction of vulnerability and terror. Some are spare; others are crowded with figures. Some exhibit a childlike simplicity; others are almost sculpted in their precision and clarity. The thirty-six European and North American artists represented in Self-Taught and Outsider Art include a hospital janitor, a factory worker, concentration camp survivors...

The original vision on contemporary design and the encounter with other disciplines opens the architecture of Philippe Rahm to multiple possibilities. Constructed Atmospheres provides a selection of projects in which light, temperature, pressure, humidity, represent the 'brick' for a new discipline that can be defined by the term "meteorological design". Philippe Rahm's design is based on the principle that man faces reality from the inside and does not produce objects but atmospheres. The book provides a profile of the Swiss architect both as a theorist and as a designer, through the most recent works and a series of conversations conducted by Massimiliano Scuderi between 2011 and today. This book is in English only, it is a black and white edition of the bilingual book (English and Italian) "Philippe Rahm Architectes.Atmosfere Costruite _ Constructed Atmospheres" published by Postmedia Books (Milano 2014) isbn 9788874901241
