L'art est une arme de combat féministe
Que signifie la pratique artistique féminine, professionnelle et amateure ? C’est la question à laquelle s’efforce de répondre ce volume en faisant appel à des disciplines multiples et en étudiant des contextes historico-politiques et des aires géographiques contrastés. La domination masculine, et ses formes aigües de violence contre les femmes, engage en effet l’acte créateur féminin, qu’il soit sciemment féministe ou non, dans la voie de la subversion et de l’émancipation. Militantes MLF, Femen, ancienne guerillera salvadorienne ou encore artistes reconnues s’élèvent également contre les systèmes d’oppression économique et racialiste. C’est ainsi que les arts plastiques, le cinéma (de fiction et documentaire), la danse, la poésie ou encore le théâtre de Jacqueline Audry, Gioconda Belli Griselda Gambaro, Ana Istarú, Maggie Hadleigh-West, Rokhsareh Ghaem Maghami, Sarah Maldoror, Silvia Ethel Matus Avelar, Sofie Peeters, Ana María Rodas Shoshana Roberts, Clementina Suárez et Nil Yalter, constituent une véritable arme de combat.
Mathieu Briand
Présente les installations de M. Briand exposées à Lyon en 2004 qui font suite à celles de l'exposition au Palais de Tokyo à Paris en 2003-2004. Propose des études et des essais sur son oeuvre, ainsi que des photographies et un descriptif de plusieurs de ses installations qui offrent au visiteur une expérience sensorielle et interactive associant le son, l'image et le toucher.
Into the Light
Since that time, the projected image has become a prominent feature of contemporary art-making, and the incorporation of large-scale moving images by artists into installations now has a rich history. But due to the ephemeral nature of the original art works, many classic installations, while remembered, have not been widely seen.".

Recipes for Survival
In 1983, when acclaimed Brazilian artist Maria Thereza Alves was an art student at Cooper Union in the United States, she returned to her native country to document the backlands of Brazil, where her family is from. Working with the local people in a collaborative process that has become the hallmark of her mature work, Alves photographed their daily lives and interviewed them to gather the facts that they wanted the world to know about them. Unlike documentation created by outsiders, which tends to objectify Brazil’s indigenous and rural people, Alves’s work presents her subjects as active agents who are critically engaged with history. Recipes for Survival opens with evocative, caption...
Joachim Koester
Starting in the mid-1990s, Joachim Koester developed an oeuvre that could be described as a complex web in which journalistic and historical research fuses with personal and fictive narratives. He belongs to an artists generation whose practices are based on what Hal Foster once described as the archival approach. Balancing the thin line between documentary and fiction, Koesters films, photos, and installations reexamine and activate forgotten histories, failed utopias, and the obsolete. In his work, bygone counter-cultural movements reemerge in the same way that geographical and spiritual journeys are retraced. Joachim Koester: Of Spirits and Empty Spaces is published to accompany five independent, complementary exhibitions of the work of Joachim Koester, at Institut dArt Contemporain, Villeurbanne; List Visual Arts Center, Cambridge, Massachusetts; Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Copenhagen; S.M.A.K., Ghent; and Centre dArt Contemporain, Genève.
