Sara-Vide Ericson arbetar med ett måleri som bottnar i personliga och kroppsliga erfarenheter. Sara-Vide Ericson-s paintings are rooted in personal and bodily experiences. Memories of places, moments and inherited experiences are, through the artist-s work process and the characteristics of the material, transformed into a concentrated new reality.[Bokinfo].
"This collection of writings on social work and the arts was borne during extraordinary and uncertain times. The 2020 COVID-19 pandemic had brought the world to a standstill - most of us were hunkered down, if lucky, able to work from home yet feeling isolated and collectively lonely; others lost their jobs and yet others were on the frontlines fighting a heretofore unknown yet perniciously contagious disease. At the same time, precipitated by sequential killings of several black men and women at the hands of law enforcement, racial tensions in the U. S. erupted. Fueled by a culture more politically divided than ever, people defied the virus taking to the streets demanding racial equity, justice, and inspiring hope that social change was (is?) possible"--
Vivant une histoire d’amour impossible, la narratrice s’invente un double littéraire, Madame X, pour partir à la recherche de son véritable désir. Dans ce voyage initiatique qui nous transporte de Paris à Istanbul, de New York à Venise, le personnage demande à des femmes qu’elle admire : philosophes, actrices, psychanalystes, artistes, écrivains ou encore une nonne et une hermaphrodite, de lui confier des tâches qui lui ouvrent les portes vers des mondes secrets et fantastiques. Quel est son véritable désir ? Et quel est le prix à payer pour le trouver ? Un roman à clés captivant, à la croisée d’Alice aux pays des merveilles et d’Eyes Wide Shut.
Exploring the relationship between museums and biographies, this collection of essays examines examples from the early 19th century to the present day.

Qu’est-ce que l’inconscient ? À cette question, de nombreuses disciplines, de la psychanalyse aux neurosciences, ont tenté de proposer une réponse – toujours frustrante. Peut-être cet échec repose-t-il sur le fait que l’inconscient a trop longtemps été considéré comme une chose à observer de loin, plutôt que comme un paysage à arpenter, à parcourir, à explorer. S’entourant d’une pléiade d’artistes, de cinéastes et d’écrivains, de Christopher Nolan à Mikhaïl Boulgakov, de Anish Kapoor à Stanley Kubrick, de Michel Houellebecq à Liv Strömquist, balayant tout le spectre de la pensée contemporaine, Sinziana Ravini propose donc une invitation au voyage – un...

The operative role of the photographic media in making and remaking history History is increasingly made in images, not only because its records are largely photographic but also because our ideas about the past are formed in visual terms. This book offers a discussion of contemporary art practices which question the received notions of historical representations after the pivotal changes of 1989 in Europe. These art practices reveal, in different ways, the operative role of the photographic media in making and remaking history. Not limited to a particular artistic medium, they demonstrate how history is forged through enacting or re-enacting its past forms, while, on the other hand, they indicate how copying and quoting can contribute to creating a new, operative aesthetics. By foregrounding a performative character of images, art is shown to construct an alternative knowledge of the past. Among others the works of the following artists are discussed in this book: Zofia Kulik, Yael Bartana, Harun Farocki and Andrej Ujică, Luc Tuymans, Dierk Schmidt.
