Cette actualité, aussi brûlante soit-elle, s'inscrit en réalité dans une histoire longue et complexe que l'on peut faire débuter à l'ère des expériences iconoclastes de la Révolution française. Une histoire qui se poursuit au cours des deux siècles suivants avec des querelles d'ordre esthétique, moral et politique, l'art public cristallisant autour de lui des affrontements venus d'en haut comme d'en bas. Ce livre est le premier à proposer une vue d'ensemble des controverses nées autour d'œuvres prenant place non pas dans les lieux sacrés et confinés de l'art, mais dans un espace censé être accessible à tout un chacun. « Art public et controverses » constitue ainsi un complément essentiel à l'étude de l'art public et une contribution originale aux interrogations très actuelles sur la censure.

Dans Paris, à côté du piéton, la piscine fait surgir le baigneur et le nageur. Depuis plus d’un siècle, on peut y nager en toutes saisons. Il y a là un don de la Ville qui délivre le bipède de sa gravité. Se dénuder, se doucher, s’abandonner, couler, faire la planche, brasser, se revigorer et même par certaines baies vitrées, contempler des bouts de la capitale… Comment(...)

Se dénuder, se doucher, s’abandonner, couler, faire la planche, brasser, se revigorer et même par certaines baies vitrées, contempler des bouts de la capitale… Comment tous ces plaisirs de l’eau ont-ils été offerts aux Parisiennes et aux Parisiens? Une enquête menée par deux ethnographes amateurs, sur plus d’un an, dans les 41 piscines municipales de la capitale. Ils ont nagé, regardé, écouté. Ils ont conversé avec des maîtres-nageurs, d’autres nageurs, ils ont observé les édifices, humé les quartiers. Ils sont remontés à la source de toute cette affaire, la Seine.

Sous quelles formes et en quels lieux se déploient aujourd'hui les pratiques artistiques? N'étant plus confinés à la triade atelier, galerie, musée, les artistes créent des alternatives à l'institutionnalisation de l'art en investissant des non-lieux, ou encore en modelant leur pratique artistique sur d'autres secteurs de l'activité humaine tels l'espace public/privé, les territoires social et psychologique, la recherche scientifique, le politique. Ce livre propose une réflexion sur ces différents lieux et leur incidence sur notre conception d'art, sur les conditions de réception, sur le statut de l'auteur et sur le rôle du spectateur. Plusieurs approches artistiques sont considérées : pratiques infiltrantes, manœuvres, actions, relationnelles et performatives, interventions in situ. Le pouvoir que l'art a de transformer notre perception des situations et des activités quotidiennes débouche sur la convergence, une valeur ajoutée à la coexistence. Avec des textes de: Paul Ardenne, Aline Caillet, Nathalie de Blois, Marie Fraser, Emmanuelle Léonard, Luc Lévesque, Christof Migone, Alain-Martin Richard, Kathleen Ritter, Véronique Rodriguez, et Stephen Wright. // In what forms and in what places are artistic practices deployed today? No longer confined to the triad studio-gallery-museum, artists are creating alternatives to the art world: public/private space; psychological/social territories; scientific research; politics; the workplace. This book is an invitation to consider how these non-traditional places for production/diffusion impact on our conceptions of art, the status of the artist/author, and the role of the spectator. Diverse artistic approaches are considered - infiltration practices, manoeuvres, relational and performative actions, site-specific intervention - all of which foreground relations of coexistence. Texts by: Paul Ardenne, Aline Caillet, Nathalie de Blois, Marie Fraser, Emmanuelle Léonard, Luc Lévesque, Christof Migone, Alain-Martin Richard, Kathleen Ritter, Véronique Rodriguez, and Stephen Wright.

Price:

Summary:
This richly illustrated monograph looks at André Volten's stylistic development by examining a large number of works from his sculptural output. The writers also consider Volten's significance to sculpture in the Netherlands and on the international art scene, as well as discussing his development of the Constructivist aesthetic. Since the 1950s, André Volten (b. 1925) has made an exceptional contribution to sculpture in public space, and examples of his prolific output can be seen in the Netherlands and beyond. He has also been an important protagonist in the debate about the need for art within the public domain. The integration of architecture and visual art, as seen in Volten's work, demonstrates how these two disciplines can complement and invigorate each other.

Summary:
More than twenty years ago, a New Jersey artist started a project for the Philadelphia Anti-Graffiti Network that encouraged young people to paint murals on a few buildings around the city. Jane Golden could not have known that the Mural Arts Program (MAP) would become the nation's largest public art program and a model for programs throughout the country. With more than 2600 murals throughout Philadelphia, the program has brightened the lives of countless residents and tourists while providing a creative outlet for an astounding array of artists. MAP now works with more than 3000 students around the city, engaging them in a curriculum that teaches not only artistic skills but civic engagement and personal responsibility. "More Philadelphia murals and the stories they tell", a sequel to "Philadelphia murals and the stories they tell", shares with the earlier work its beautiful color photography, along with profiles of the artists. Featured here is the remarkable story of an unlikely artistic collaboration — between boys who live in a residential facility, a community in the Kensington section of Philadelphia, and men who are incarcerated in a maximum-security state correctional facility. The 1/8 of a mile long mural they created, about balanced and restorative justice, was intended to help the young men give something back to a community they had harmed and help the community wrestle with issues around crime and violence. In the process of creating the mural, it became a life-changing experience for all involved.
