Christo and Jeanne Claude
This exhibition at the Centre Pompidou is the first presentation of Christo and Jeanne-Claude's work in a Parisian institution and promises to be a large-scale project. On one hand, it will feature works still unknown to the public - Cratères, Surfaces d'empaquetage, Boîtes - and, on the other hand, it will take a look back at all the stages in the development of an urban project that has left its mark on the collective memory: Le Pont Neuf, packed in 1985.00A catalogue presenting unpublished documents and revealing the creative process at the origin of the artist's career.00Exhibition: Centre Pompidou, Paris, France (18.03.- 15.06.2020).
Hervé Fischer and sociological art
Cette monographie reprend la structure en trois volets de l?exposition ± Hervé Fischer et l?art sociologique? présentée au Centre Pompidou de juin à septembre 2017, dans la Galerie du Musée : le premier couvre la période des années 1970 jusqu?au milieu des années 1980 quand Hervé Fischer s'inscrit dans les avant-gardes et fait descendre l'art dans la rue ; le second, celle de la fin des années 1990 à aujourd?hui quand il approfondit la question de la relation entre la société et le marché de l'art ; le troisième volet est plutôt dédié au numérique et à une réflexion autour des nouvelles pratiques liées aux réseaux sociaux.
Art and Science in Word and Image
Art and Science in Word and Image explores how discovery and innovation have functioned inter-dependently across art, literature and the sciences, focusing on engagements with natural forms and forces, and other fields of knowledge across a spectrum of creative media.
Hotbeds of Licentiousness
Hotbeds of Licentiousness is the first substantial critical engagement with British pornography on film across the 1970s, including the “Summer of Love,” the rise and fall of the Permissive Society, the arrival of Margaret Thatcher, and beyond. By focusing on a series of colorful filmmakers whose work, while omnipresent during the 1970s, now remains critically ignored, author Benjamin Halligan discusses pornography in terms of lifestyle aspirations and opportunities which point to radical changes in British society. In this way, pornography is approached as a crucial optic with which to consider recent cultural and social history.

Abstract Video
Offering historical and theoretical positions from a variety of art historians, artists, curators, and writers, this groundbreaking collection is the first substantive sourcebook on abstraction in moving-image media. With a particular focus on art since 2000, Abstract Video addresses a longer history of experimentation in video, net art, installation, new media, expanded cinema, visual music, and experimental film. Editor Gabrielle JenningsÑa video artist herselfÑreveals as never before how works of abstract video are not merely, as the renowned curator Kirk Varnedoe once put it, Òpictures of nothing,Ó but rather amorphous, ungovernable spaces that encourage contemplation and innovation. In explorations of the work of celebrated artists such as Jeremy Blake, Mona Hatoum, Pierre Huyghe, Ryoji Ikeda, Takeshi Murata, Diana Thater, and Jennifer West, alongside emerging artists, this volume presents fresh and vigorous perspectives on a burgeoning and ever-changing arena of contemporary art.
Sound Writing
"This book examines how writers and artists from the 1870s to the 1960s turned their attention to the physical process of spoken language. Their goal was to capture this vocal-acoustic phenomenon-the bodily articulation of sound-in legible form. At stake was a crossing-over from the audible to the visible, from speech to notation, from body to trace. This book shows how the search for such possibilities-and the various media, techniques, and concepts employed-transformed the age-old genre of poetry into a site of radical linguistic experimentation"--
Time, Space, Matter in Translation
Time, Space, Matter in Translation considers time, space, and materiality as legitimate habitats of translation. By offering a linked series of interdisciplinary case studies that show translation in action beyond languages and texts, this book provides a capacious and innovative understanding of what translation is, what it does, how, and where. The volume uses translation as a means through which to interrogate processes of knowledge transfer and creation, interpretation and reading, communication and relationship building—but it does so in ways that refuse to privilege one discipline over another, denying any one of them an entitled perspective. The result is a book that is grounded in the disciplines of the authors and simultaneously groundbreaking in how its contributors incorporate translation studies into their work. This is key reading for students in comparative literature—and in the humanities at large—and for scholars interested in seeing how expanding intellectual conversations can develop beyond traditional questions and methods.
Summer of Love
Though more than a generation has passed since the revolutionary fervor of the Summer of Love of 1967, the 1960s in many ways seem with us still. From recurring debates over the war in Vietnam to the perpetually appealing music of the Beatles and the Rolling Stone to the concern about youth drug use, the legacy of the 1960s is ubiquitous in contemporary life. The Summer of Love brings together an impressive group of historians, artists, and cultural critics to present a rich and varied interpretation of this seminal decade and its continuing influence on politics, society, and culture. The Summer of Love, which accompanies an exhibition at Tate Liverpool, pays particular attention to the wil...
