Luc Delahaye
Catalogue de l'exposition présentée à la galerie Nathalie Obadia à Paris en janvier 2011. Il s'agit de la première exposition personnelle de Luc Delahaye dans sa galerie parisienne. Luc Delahaye présente dix nouvelles photographies de grand format réalisées au cours des quatre dernières années. Les photographies de Luc Delahaye, souvent prises sur les théâtres de l'actualité, témoignent d'une approche à la fois directe et détachée, et leur puissance narrative est soutenue par la forme spectaculaire du tableau de grand format. Le texte du catalogue, bilingue français-anglais, est constitué d'une conversation avec Quentin Bajac.
The Invention of Photography
The advent of photography in 1839 was greeted with enormous enthusiasm by the public. It quickly spread throughout Europe and the United States, where it was used in a broad range of fields, from science and medicine to art and archaeology. This fascinating study of the first half-century of photography covers the work of early pioneers such as Daguerre, Fox Talbot, John Herschel and Hippolyte Bayard, to later technical innovations and the arrival of the Kodak camera in 1888, when photography finally became accessible to a mass audience.

With Pleasure
A timely and expansive survey of a groundbreaking American art movement that overturned aesthetic hierarchies in a riot of color and ornamentation The Pattern and Decoration movement emerged in the 1970s as an embrace of long-dismissed art forms associated with the decorative. Pioneering artists such as Miriam Schapiro (1923-2015), Joyce Kozloff (b. 1942), Robert Kushner (b. 1949), and others appropriated patterns, frequently from non-Western decorative arts, to produce intricate, often dizzying or gaudy designs in media ranging from painting, sculpture, and collage to ceramics, installation art, and performance. This dazzling book showcases an astonishing array of works by more than 40 arti...
Contemporary Photography in France
This compelling publication traces the broad arc of photography’s development in France from the 1970s to the present day. A decade-by-decade account reveals unexpected points of convergence between practices that are not usually considered in a comparative perspective. These include photographic practices in contemporary art, documentary, photojournalism, and fashion. Author Olga Smith sets these practices in dialogue with French philosophy – the writings of Roland Barthes, Jean Baudrillard, and Jacques Rancière – to produce an innovative study of the intersections between the photographic image, text, practice, and theory. This analysis is guided by an understanding of photography as deeply engaged with historical, cultural, and intellectual events that defined French national experience in the contemporary period. Landscape provides a particular focus to study issues of key significance, including national identification, colonial past, legacies of modernization and environmental breakdown.
Fiona Rae
This title examines Fiona Rae's paintings from the last decade when she began to explore, in painterly analogues, many of the new visual conventions familiar to a post-Photoshop generation. She mixes graphic and cartoon imagery with abstract marks and spontaneous gestures to create an iconoclastic synthesis of painterly languages.
