Luis Camnitzer: The Volume
From the dot to the line to infinity: a whimsical children's book about space and spatiality, with pop-ups and gatefolds One very dark night, a long time ago, there was a big explosion. It was the "Big Bang." From the "Big Bang," a dot flew off by itself and began to explore. But all around it was empty space. The dot became lonely, so it split in two, which was fun at first. But then the two dots grew bored of each other, so they began to multiply until they formed something entirely new: a line. The line replicated until it became a surface, and the surface repeated until it became a 3-dimensional shape: the volume. A stray line then pulled off the volume and began to explore shape, color ...
The Nova Project 70
In the year 2050, General Mark William George Parker, a United States Special Operations Officer experiences a strange encounter which occurred while overseeing Project 70, a high-level secret intelligence mission collaborated between the United States Government and British Aristocrats, looking to rebuild a utopian society on Earth.

Mika Rottenberg
Mika Rottenberg développe une pratique artistique qui conjugue la réalisation de vidéos, d’installations, de dessins et de sculptures. Dans de nombreuses de ses œuvres, elle met en scène des situations absurdes de travail à la chaîne, souvent interprétées par des femmes. Leurs corps, hors des normes et loin des canons habituels, sont entièrement mobilisés et utilisés comme outils de travail et matières premières. Captivants récits où la fantaisie et l’humour se mêlent à l’étrangeté et où le réel semble se distordre dans la fiction, les films de Mika Rottenberg sont montrés au sein d’installations immersives qui plongent les spectateurs dans leur univers au-delà de l’écran et participent ainsi à brouiller les frontières entre imaginaire et réalité. Livre publié à l’occasion de l’exposition personnelle de Mika Rottenberg au Palais de Tokyo, 23.06 – 11.09 2016
The Long Now
Text by Jonathan Crary, Russell Ferguson, Holly Myers.
Alice Mackler
The first monograph on a beloved American ceramicist who has been making joyful and original work for nearly 80 years Born in 1931, and living in New York, Alice Mackler today is still pushing forward not only her own art but also the boundaries of contemporary art across sculpture, painting, drawing and collage. While long beloved and admired by artists, Mackler over the last few years has finally found the wide and enthusiastic audience she deserves. With a focus on the female figure, Mackler's work is, as Matthew Higgs writes in this book, "a visceral accumulation of her experiences translated into a material form." Mackler's vibrant, voluptuous ceramic sculptures evoke the Venus of Wille...
Photography and Cinema
Eclecticism seems to be one of the most recognized features of Chris Marker's work. He is often presented as a filmmaker and a photographer, a poet, a translator, a cartoonist, a visual artist, an editor, a software designer and a television and video director. Given the 50 years since the release of his most well-known film, La Jetée (1963), this volume fosters discussion of the intertwining of photography and cinema within a framework that analyses Marker's influence in film and photography's scholarship. In the last ten years, many books have been published on the subjects of photography and.

The Soul of a Nation Reader
A comprehensive compendium of artists and writers confronting questions of Black identity, activism and social responsibility in the age of Malcolm X and the Black Panthers, based on the landmark traveling exhibition What is "Black art"? This question was posed and answered time and time again between 1960 and 1980 by artists, curators and critics deeply affected by this turbulent period of radical social and political upheaval in America. Rather than answering in one way, they argued for radically different ideas of what "Black art" meant. Across newspapers and magazines, catalogs, pamphlets, interviews, public talks and panel discussions, a lively debate emerged between artists and others ...
Eleven Conclusions
This book takes found language from archived exhibition catalogues from the Blaffer Art Museum, the art museum of the University of Houston. The language has been chopped up and reconfigured into prose poems and disjunctive critical analyses, and is intended to mimic an exhibition catalogue/written thesis in itself, albeit through abstracted language. This is a thesis project for artist and writer Betsy Huete
