Julien Creuzet (English edition)
Julien Creuzet is an artist, videographer, performer and poet. He links forgotten, minority histories and imaginary representations of distant places with the social realities of the here and now. His exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo, which visit is rhythmed by a soundtrack composed specifically for it, takes the form of an immersive environment akin to a large public space suffused with the permanent state of tension that characterizes our era. It presents a multiplicity of different works and offers an array of disjointed narratives. Preferring anachronism to the linearity of established stories, Creuzet thus invokes poetry and politics to unfold a mobile imaginary that brings together di...
Julien Creuzet
«Une série d'œuvres inédites de Julien Creuzet et des extraits de textes littéraires (poèmes, fictions, science-fiction, essais critiques, scénario de film) qui révèlent des imaginaires communs aux diasporas africaines et liés à son œuvre. Julien Creuzet a invité cinq chercheurs à proposer des titres qui ont peuplé à la fois leur imaginaire et son propre travail. Il s'agit de l'universitaire Ari Lima, de la chercheuse et universitaire Noémi Michel, de la chercheuse et archiviste Mukashyaka Nsengimana, de l'artiste visuelle Sofía Bonilla Otoya et de l'écrivain et universitaire Maboula Soumahoro. Leurs voix et leur collaboration ont joué un rôle fondamental dans le rassemblement des histoires et des imaginaires liés à la mer qui composent ce livre. Certains des textes sélectionnés dans leur langue originale n'ont jamais été traduits en anglais, et encore moins en français, comme l'œuvre de l'écrivaine et activiste afro-brésilienne Beatriz Nascimento (1942-95) ou de l'écrivaine cubaine Excilia Saldaña (1946-99), pour n'en citer que deux.»--
Manifesta 13 Marseille
The Manifesta, which takes place every two years in a different European city, has a reputation for being a place for creativity and innovation, and for good reason. Primarily responsible for this is festival's opening program, which was tested in 2018 in Palermo and is now being continued in Marseille in 2020. Winy Maas's architectural office, MVRDV, and The Why Factory (t?f) were commissioned to explore the city's urban space through the means of artistic research and the latest method of data analysis. This resulted in a compendium of social, cultural, ethical, religious, and geographical structures. It was, however, meant to do more than just describe the status quo. The exploration also...

With Paris in Mind
Dead Hemingway. Dead Baker. Dead Joyce and dead Fitzgerald. Dead Stein. Dead Picasso. Dead Barnes and dead Truffaut. Piaf dead and Breton dead. Gainsbourg dead and Monet dead. Bernhardt dead and Satie dead. Baldwin dead and Foucault dead too.The Parisian artists of our dreams have been dead a long time. It is now our chance to live in the moment. The romantic fantasy of mythic Paris is always close at hand, but what is it really like to be a resident artist today? Does hyper-connectivity help or hinder creativity? Are cities still necessary? Are artists? Will Mountain Cox, who has made a career out of identifying and championing young, fresh talent, and who himself arrived in Paris as a newc...
Cuba Talks
A stunning visual survey of the arts scene of Cuba since the 1980s, this is a must-have book for all contemporary art lovers.

Today, many of the contemporary Cuban artists can be found in the collections of some of the world's premier museums and art galleries. Now that Cuba and the United States have opened a new chapter in their relations, Cuban art is poised to be the next big thing in the art world.
Ragnar Kjartansson
Ragnar Kjartansson compose une œuvre singulière à la croisée de la performance et du cinéma, de la sculpture et de l’art lyrique, de la peinture de plein air et de la musique. Il produit régulièrement de vastes projets interdisciplinaires dont la réalisation implique souvent plusieurs participants – acteurs, musiciens, amis et membres de sa famille. Éprouvant les mécanismes du spectacle et les ressorts de la tragédie, Ragnar Kjartansson parvient conjointement à faire advenir une émotion à travers des gestes mélodramatiques et à révéler la réalité qui se joue dans les fondements de toute interprétation. Par la répétition, véritable motif de son œuvre, Ragnar Kjartansson éclaire l’effort à l’œuvre et la théâtralité de la vie quotidienne. Livre publié à l’occasion de l’exposition personnelle de Ragnar Kjartansson au Palais de Tokyo, « Seul celui qui connaît le désir », 21.10 2015 – 10.01 2016

The first-ever monograph on Reynaud-Dewar, one of today's most celebrated multimedia artists French artist Lili Reynaud-Dewar creates environments and situations in which she uses her own body to examine the dual experience of vulnerability and empowerment that results from acts of exposing oneself to the world.

This is the first book to document her remarkable career.
