Edizioni F. Conz
The Edizioni Conz of the Italian collector, publisher and photographer Francesco Conz–including portfolios, large silkscreen prints on fabrics and objects–are among the finest and most elaborate art editions of the second half of the 20th century. A friend and patron of Viennese Actionism, Fluxus, Concrete Poetry, and Lettrism, he was an obsessive, knowledgeable enthusiast open to all the arts, for whom hospitality, the magic of community, and respect for the arts were more important than any mercantile aspirations. This publication is the first comprehensive catalogue raisonné of the editions published by Conz between 1972 and 2009. Comprising more than 500 editions, it is both a refle...
Isidore Isou
Cet ouvrage est ? aussi surprenant que cela puisse paraître ?, la toute première monographie sur l'œuvre plastique d'Isidore Isou (1925-2007), le génial créateur roumain du Lettrisme, ce mouvement d'avant-garde apparu à Paris dès l'immédiate après-guerre.0A la suite du Dadaïsme et du Surréalisme, le Lettrisme impose ses idées, celles d'Isidore Isou, né en 1925, qui forme autour de lui un groupe d'éclat dont sera issu Guy Debord, le futur fondateur de l'Internationale Situationniste. Isou, à travers sa théorie générale de création : ?La Créatique?, abordera tous les domaines de la connaissance, bouleversant tour à tour la poésie, le roman, le cinéma, le théâtre, l'économie politique et naturellement l'art plastique qui fait l'objet de ce livre.
Off-Screen Cinema
One of the most important avant-garde movements of postwar Paris was Lettrism, which crucially built an interest in the relationship between writing and image into projects in poetry, painting, and especially cinema. Highly influential, the Lettrists served as a bridge of sorts between the earlier works of the Dadaists and Surrealists and the later Conceptual artists. Off-Screen Cinema is the first monograph in English of the Lettrists. Offering a full portrait of the avant-garde scene of 1950s Paris, it focuses on the film works of key Lettrist figures like Gil J Wolman, Maurice Lemaître, François Dufrêne, and especially the movement's founder, Isidore Isou, a Romanian immigrant whose “discrepant editing” deliberately uncoupled image and sound. Through Cabañas's history, we see not only the full scope of the Lettrist project, but also its clear influence on Situationism, the French New Wave, the New Realists, as well as American filmmakers such as Stan Brakhage.
Classical Music Futures
This volume brings together contributions from a wide range of international academics and practitioners. It traces innovations within classical music practice, showing how these offer divergent visions for its future. The interdisciplinary contributions to the volume highlight the way contrasting ideas of the future can effect change in the present. A rich balance of theoretical and practical discussion brings authority to this collection, which lays the foundations for timely responses to challenges ranging from the concept of the musical work, and the colonial values within Western musical culture, to unsustainable models of orchestral touring. The authors highlight how labour to meet the demands of particular futures for classical music might impact its creation and consumption, presenting case studies to capture the mediating roles of technology and community engagement. This book will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of musicology and the sociology of music, as well as a general audience of practitioners, freelance musicians, music administrators and educators.

Distributed Creativity
Creative practice in music takes place in a distributed and interactive manner embracing the activities of composers, performers and improvisers-despite the sharp division of labour between these roles that traditional concert culture often presents. Two distinctive features of contemporary music are the greater incorporation of improvisation and the development of integrated and collaborative working practices between composers and performers. By blurring the distinction between composition and performance, improvisation and collaboration provide important perspectives on the distributed creative processes that play a central role in much contemporary concert music. This volume explores how collaboration and improvisation enable and constrain these creative processes.
Starting from Language
1985 äußerte Joseph Beuys in der Reihe »Reden über das eigene Land: Deutschland« an den Münchner Kammerspielen, dass er sein Werk »von der Sprache aus« entwickelt habe. Er verstand die Sprache – den bildnerischen Gestaltungsmitteln ebenbürtig – als plastisches Material, durch das jede Einzelne und jeder Einzelne körperlich, intellektuell und kommunikativ an der Neuordnung der Gesellschaft teilhaben könne. Seine Auseinandersetzung mit Sprache reicht vom Schweigen bis zur stundenlangen Diskussion, von animalisch klingenden Lauten bis zu präzisen Begriffserörterungen und verrätselten Schriften. Entsprechend gliedern sich die Kapitel in die Themen Schweigen, Laute, Begriffe, Schrift, Geheimnis, Legende und Sprechen. Ausstellung und Katalog versammeln Skulpturen, Zeichnungen, Installationen, Filme, Plakate und Dokumente aus den Beständen der Nationalgalerie, der Sammlung Marx, des Kupferstichkabinetts und der Kunstbibliothek der SMB.
