Summary:
Although the term "psychedelic" was coined to describe hallucinatory experiences produced by drugs used psychotherapeutically, the story these images tell is about the influence of psychedelic culture on the art world—not necessarily the influence of drugs.

Summary:
Although the term "psychedelic" was coined to describe hallucinatory experiences produced by drugs used psychotherapeutically, the story these images tell is about the influence of psychedelic culture on the art world—not necessarily the influence of drugs. As contemporary art evolved into a diverse and pluralistic discipline, the psychedelic evolved into a language of color and light. In Psychedelic, more than seventy-five vivid color images chart this development, exploring the art chronologically, from early Op Art through recent work using digital technology. The book, which accompanies an exhibition organized by the San Antonio Museum of Art, includes three essays that set the works in historical and cultural context.

Summary:
Through an examination of Surrealist photographs, objects, exhibitions, activities, and writings, the essays in Twilight Visions, the illustrated companion volume to the exhibition of the same name, portray the French capital as a city in the process of metamorphosis-in a kind of twilight state. The Bureau of Surrealist Research, the major Surrealist exhibitions, and the photographs of Paris by Brassai, Andre Kertesz, Ilse Bing, Germaine Krull, and Man Ray, among others, all reflect the tumultuous social and cultural transformations occurring in Paris in the 1920s and 30s. This volume considers the social, aesthetic, and political stances of the Surrealists as they probed hidden aspects of the commonplace and blurred the boundaries between dreams and reality, subjectivity and objectivity.

Presenting over 300 works created between 1909 and 1944, by artists, writers, designers and composers such as Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Anton Giulio Bragaglia, Fortunato Depero, Gerardo Dottori, Marinetti, Ivo Pannaggi, Rosa Rosà, Luigi Russolo, Tato and many others, this publication encompasses not only painting and sculpture, but also architecture, design, ceramics, fashion, film, photography, advertising, free-form poetry, publications, music, theater and performance.

Summary:
Autour de 1900, Paris rassemble une nouvelle génération de sculpteurs consciente de vivre l’aube d’une nouvelle ère et cherchant un langage pour cet avenir encore indécis. Paris est aussi un milieu intellectuel traversé de nouvelles idées qui stimulent les débats esthétiques et renouvellent nombre de questions : autonomie par rapport à la peinture, détour par le passé, relation à l’espace et au temps. Des penseurs comme Bergson, James, Nietzsche et Simmel, en substituant des notions comme l’intuition et la mouvance à la raison et à la permanence, fécondent la création plastique. Des sculpteurs aux sensibilités en apparence incompatibles apparaissent finalement comme formant un ensemble cohérent dans ce contexte.
