For more than thirty years, Jean Luc Mylayne has been photographing the birds of his native France. The creation of each image is a laborious process which can take months as Mylayne returns to the same location, day after day, waiting for his "actors," the birds, to play their parts before his lense. Mylayne asserts that the birds - he particularly focuses on bluebirds indigenous to Western Europe and the Western United States - are willing participants in the making of the picture. This is Jean Luc Mylayne's first book, and will accompany a U.S. exhibition.
Catalogue de l'exposition présentée au Musée d'Art Contemporain de Lyon du 14 mai au 2 août 2009. Depuis 1976, Jean-Luc Mylayne vit en nomade sur les routes de France et du monde à la recherche d'oiseaux qu'il photographie. Sa quête porte avant tout sur la rencontre, intime et furtive, avec l'oiseau. Chacune de ses photographies est tirée, sauf exception, en un unique exemplaire et il n'a produit dans sa carrière qu'à peine plus de 400 photographies. Ces 15 dernières années, seules 2 expositions lui ont été consacrées en France : le Musée d'art moderne de Saint-Etienne en 1991 et le Musée d'art moderne de la Ville de Paris en 1995. En revanche, Jean-Luc Mylayne vient de présenter une série d'expositions monographiques dans diverses institutions américaines. Cette exposition, dont le présent catalogue rend compte, présente un ensemble inédit de 71 photographies grands formats produites pour l'occasion.

"'Among the trees' brings together more than 30 international artists whose works explore our relationships with trees and forests. Beginning with pioneering works from the late 1960s - a decade that saw the emergence of the modern environmental movement - 'Among the trees' surveys a remarkably expansive artistic terrain. It invites us to consider trees as symbols and living organisms that have shaped human civilisation, and to celebrate their enduring resonance as a source of inspiration for some of the most compelling artists of our time" - back cover

Timeless Painting presents the work of 17 contemporary painters whose works reflect a singular approach that is peculiarly of our time: they are a-temporal, a term coined by William Gibson and Bruce Sterling, the originators of the cyberpunk aesthetic. A-temporality or timelessness manifests itself in painting as an ahistoric free-for-all, where contemporaneity as an indicator of new form is nowhere to be found, and all eras co-exist. Published to accompany an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art that explores the impact of this cultural condition on contemporary painting, this publication features work by an international roster of artists including Joe Bradley, Kerstin Brätsch, Matt Con...
