When recession-plagued New York City abandoned its industrial base in the 1970s, performance artists, photographers, and filmmakers found their own mixed uses for the city's run-down lofts, abandoned piers, vacant lots, and deserted streets.

Summary:
When recession-plagued New York City abandoned its industrial base in the 1970s, performance artists, photographers, and filmmakers found their own mixed uses for the city's run-down lofts, abandoned piers, vacant lots, and deserted streets. Gordon Matta-Clark turned a sanitation pier into the celebrated work Day's End and Betsy Sussler filmed its making; the photographic team Shunk-Kender shot a vast series of images of Willoughby Sharp's Projects: Pier 18 (which included work by Vito Acconci, Mel Bochner, Dan Graham, Matta-Clark, and William Wegman, among others); and Cindy Sherman staged some of her Untitled Film Stills on the streets of Lower Manhattan. This publication documents and illustrates these projects as well as more recent work by artists who continue to engage with the city's public, underground, and improvised spaces. The book (which accompanies a major exhibition) focuses on several important photographic series: Peter Hujar's 1976 nighttime photographs of Manhattan's West Side; Alvin Baltrop's Hudson River pier photographs from 1975-1985, most of which have never before been shown or published; David Wojnarowicz's Rimbaud in New York (1978-1979), the first of Wojnarowicz's works to be published; and several of Zoe Leonard's photographic projects from the late 1990s on. The book includes 70 color and 130 black-and-white images, a chronology of the policy decisions and developments that altered the face of New York City from 1950 to the present; an autobiographical story by David Wojnarowicz; and essays by Johanna Burton, Lytle Shaw, Juan Suarez, and the exhibition's curators, Lynne Cooke and Douglas Crimp.

Summary:
Skateboarders are an increasingly common feature of the urban environment - recent estimates total 40 million world-wide. We are all aware of their often extraordinary talent and manoeuvres on the city streets. This book is the first detailed study of the urban phenomenon of skateboarding. It looks at skateboarding history from the surf-beaches of California in the 1950s, through the purpose-built skateparks of the 1970s, to the street-skating of the present day and shows how skateboarders experience and understand the city through their sport. Dismissive of authority and convention, skateboarders suggest that the city is not just a place for working and shopping but a true pleasure-ground, a place where the human body, emotions and energy can be expressed to the full.

Cela représente l'infrastructure souterraine la plus développée au monde. La création du Quartier international a mis de l'avant plusieurs nouveaux concepts urbains, incluant l'extension de la voie piétonnière souterraine. Conçu via une étroite collaboration entre architectes, des spécialistes en aménagement urbain et la communauté des affaires de la ville, ce nouvel endroit est désormais la demeure d'œuvres d'art réalisées spécifiquement pour ce site. Dominique Blain, Michel Goulet et Isabelle Hayeur ont chacun créé un triptyque essentiellement photographique ou sculptural qui incite le passant à s'arrêter, regarder et toucher. Cette publication documente les qualités artistiques, architecturales et urbaines du site. On y retrouve des essais par des commissaires, des discours d'artistes, une carte architecturale du complexe, ainsi que plusieurs planches couleurs.

Ce livre offre un regard d’un genre unique sur la vie et l’oeuvre de l’une des figures les plus appréciées et influentes de la scène vibrante de l’art de la rue : Blek le Rat. Célèbres dans le monde entier, les oeuvres de ce pochoiriste parisien ont profondément marqué d’innombrables street artists et n’ont de cesse d’inspirer designers graphiques et publicitaires, notamment dans le domaine de la musique. Des premiers pochoirs représentant des rats bombés sur les murs de Paris aux affiches de la journaliste Florence Aubenas en passant par les portraits de Lady Di ou de Serge Gainsbourg, c’est tout l’art révolutionnaire de Blek le Rat qui est ici montré pour la première fois - soit vingt années de création dans la rue et pour la rue. L’ouvrage présente plus de 300 oeuvres in situ magnifiquement photographiées et propose non seulement la description des techniques utilisées par Blek mais aussi une analyse de la signification de ses créations au pochoir. Acteur omniprésent de la scène de l’art urbain dans des villes aussi cosmopolites que Paris, New York, Barcelone, Buenos Aires, Londres, Taipei, Naples et Berlin, Blek le Rat, à travers ce livre, laisse enfin une trace durable de son travail qui continuera longtemps d’inspirer les amoureux de l’art de la rue.
