Living Currency
'I should have written you after my first reading of The Living Currency; it was already breath-taking and I should have responded. After reading it a few more times, I know it is the best book of our times.' Letter to Pierre Klossowski from Michel Foucault, winter 1970. Living Currency is the first English translation of Klossowski's La monnaie vivante. It offers an analysis of economic production as a mechanism of psychic production of desires and is a key work from this often overlooked but wonderfully creative French thinker.
Antidote
Since 2005, Guillaume Houzé and his grandmother Ginette Moulin have presented contemporary art in La Galerie des Galeries, an art space they created in the Paris Galeries Lafayette flagship store, which was founded by Guillaume Houzé's great-grandfather.Each year they organize the Antidote exhibition, which is devoted to French and foreign artists. They have also started a collection together, which is now one of the leading French private collections and includes works by Xavier Veilhan, Tatiana Trouvé, Cyprien Gaillard, Sâadane Afif, Gedi Sibony, Wade Guyton, Ugo Rondinone, and David Noonan.Although this book includes a complete inventory of the works, the collection is presented in the form of a comic by Jean-Marc Ballée which is also a carte blanche to graphic designer and artist Mathias Schweizer, who has conceived this surprising book.French text.
Poems I Will Never Release
This book is dedicated to the complex artistic trajectory of Chiara Fumai, who played a significant role in the development of performance and feminist aesthetics in the twenty-first century and who died prematurely in 2017, at the age of only thirty-nine. Conceived as a critical monograph on Fumai?s work as a visual artist, performer, DJ and music curator, 'Poems I Will Never Release' is the first volume to trace the entirety of her artistic path: from her scathing video performances and large-scale installations, to her more intimist practices of automatic writing and collage and her incursions into music.0Almost 500 pages long, the volume is divided into three main chapters. The first of ...
The Passion According to Carol Rama
"Ignored for decades by the official discourse of art history, Carol Rama (1918) is today confirmed as an indispensable referent in understanding twentieth-century artistic production. This publication offers an itinerary through many of the artist's creative moments in an attempt to recognise and reclaim a body of work which demands to become classic." --
Project Phalanstère at Cac Brétigny, Or, "Of Museum Orgy Or Mixed Omnigamy in Composite and Harmonic Order"
Organized by curator Pierre Bal-Blanc, the experimental architectural program ?Project Phalanstère? consisted of a series of site-specific artworks in the Parisian suburbs. Taking place from 2003 to 2014, these projects developed a creative space extended in time. Here, in contrast with the duration of the work schedule, in which one task follows another, the simultaneity of life?s forces asserted its rhythm. Some works exceeded the conventional time and space of an exhibition: Lionel Estève?s myope et amnésique (2005), for example, was conceived to be larger than any one viewer can see; through the displacement of existing objects, both Cyprien Gaillard and Lois Weinberger reflected upon permanence and the monument; Christodolous Panayiotou and Jens Hanning made subtle alterations to existing architecture, playing with the material presence and experience of light; and so on.
Performance Works
Writers from Claire Bishop to Chris Kraus reflect on new conditions for performance art An anthology of new and reprinted essays, interviews and fictional texts on performance art today, Performance Worksinvestigates how artistic institutions and technological change have contributed to changes in exhibition format.
Cultures of the Curatorial
Processuality and performativity, and more recently dramaturgy and choreography, are terms often used in analyses of exhibitions and other curatorial formats. These attributions reflect the changes curatorial practice has undergone over the past twenty years in the wider context of cultural and economic globalization and the related notions of acceleration, action orientation, and mobility. In this light, the exhibition manifests itself as a transdisciplinary and transcultural set of spatiotemporal relations, which is time-based by its very nature. Focusing on time instead of the typically predominant category of space, this publication—the second volume in the Cultures of the Curatorial series—takes up the key aesthetic, social, political, and economic issues of the early twenty-first century running through the field and framed by the axes of exhibiting and the temporal. -- Publisher’s description.
