Ulla von Brandenburg (English Edition)
From a background rich in literature and the history of arts and architecture—as well as psychoanalysis, spiritism and magic—Ulla von Brandenburg explores the shaping of our social constructs with borrowings from theatrical codes and mechanisms, together with esoteric rituals and popular ceremonies. For her exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo she has conceived a total, constantly evolving project inspired by the theatre, its imaginary realm and its conventions. With ritual as her starting point, she invites the public to experience an immersive reinterpretation of the themes, forms and motifs—including movement, the stage, colour, music and textiles—that fuel her oeuvre. Book published on the occasion of Ulla von Brandenburg’s solo exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo, 21.02 – 13.09.2020
Jonathan Jones
This beautiful exhibition catalogue presents Jonathan Jones's immersive SCAF commission, untitled (the tyranny of distance), within the context of his Indigenous traditions and 'modernist' use of fluorescent light. Jones creates a powerful and meaningful set of references that have established him as one of the most interesting artists to emerge in the last decade. His work explores the relationships of space - the personal, the public, the private, the common - and the unifying effect of light.
Laure Prouvost
Généreux et plein d’humour, le travail de Laure Prouvost examine les relations entre langage, image et perception, plaçant le visiteur dans des situations de doute et d’incompréhension, mais aussi d’émerveillement intellectuel et sensoriel. Ces situations deviennent des installations immersives qui invitent à l’évasion et dans lesquelles dialoguent films, sculptures, peintures, tapisseries, performances. Son exposition au Palais de Tokyo, « Ring, Sing and Drink for Trespassing », est une ode aux chemins de traverse et au dépassement des limites, à la joie de se faufiler à travers un grillage pour découvrir un terrain vague ou un jardin aujourd’hui abandonné. Livre publié à l'occasion de l'exposition personnelle de Laure Prouvost au Palais de Tokyo, « Ring, Sing and Drink for Trespassing », 22.06 – 09.09.2018

Loris Gréaud
"Cellar Door" is a spectacle stretching in time and space. As an exhibition, it is the most ambitious project of French artist Loris Gréaud so far, starting at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris and continuing at the ICA London, conceived as musical in progress. As a book, it includes the project's synopsis and musical scores, thus serving as the libretto of this opera of a new genre.
750 Years in Paris
If you could stand still for 750 years, what could you learn about the world? It's time to find out. Focusing on one single building in Paris, beginning in the 13th century and making its way towards today, this historically stunning story is the eagerly anticipated debut from Vincent Mahe.
Freedom of Use
"Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal are known for an architecture that privileges inhabitants’ freedom and pleasure through generous, open designs. The Paris-based architects opened their 2015 lecture at Harvard University with a manifesto: study and create an inventory of the existing situation; densify without compressing individual space; promote user mobility, access, choice; and most importantly, never demolish. Freedom of Use reflects on these core values to present a fluid narrative of Lacaton and Vassal’s oeuvre, articulated through processes of accumulation, addition, and extension. The architects describe built and unbuilt work, from a house in Niger made of little more than branches; to the expansive Nantes School of Architecture; to a public square in Bordeaux where, after months of study, their design solution was: do nothing."--Sternberg Press website (viewed Sept. 29, 2015)
The Tempest Society
Gathering together interviews, essays, rare archival material and translations, 'The Tempest Society' revisits and resuscitates the forgotten heritage of a politicised theatre group ? ?Al Assifa? ? that was born out of the struggles of the Mouvement des travailleurs arabes (MTA), Palestine, anti-colonialism, and workers? and immigrant labour rights. Contributors explore the legacy of the group ? placing this history in the context of the European economic crisis and its effect on Greece, contemporary migration and the conditions of immigrant workers and refugees. Conversations with the artist, and participants and collaborators in her film, consider the potential for politicised art to move between the street and the factory in cultural production today.00Following 'The Tempest Society' (2017), the original video installation commissioned for documenta 14, which took Athens as a site to reflect on democracy and theatre, the book brings to light the specific history, the archive, and the ongoing resonance of the agit-prop theatre group ?Al-Assifa? in the context of urgent economic, political and humanitarian upheaval. 0.

Intense Proximity
Documenting the third edition of La Triennale, the international contemporary art triennial previously known as "La Force de l'Art," this catalogue also features an anthology of writings by thinkers exploring the connections between artistic practice and the writing of culture throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. This anthology reflects the theoretical and conceptual content of La Triennale 2012, and is fully part of the curatorial project. It is a tool of theoretical thinking about the relations between art and anthropology.
