Summary:
Odyssée 2.0 est un parcours photographique librement inspiré du mythe d’Homère qui suit les pérégrinations d’Ulysse au sein de la Technopolis, une « Smart City » fictive et dystopique. À travers une série de mises en scène reprenant les étapes-clés de l’Odyssée d’Homère, ce travail aborde les problématiques inhérentes à la prolifération des technologies numériques. Dans un parti pris photographique reposant sur le choix de l’argentique et des trucages low tech, notre anti-héros explore plusieurs facettes de nos vies connectées telles que l’économie de surveillance, la banalisation des drones, la sexualité virtuelle ou encore la police prédictive. Ce projet éditorial conjugue ainsi les formes d’expression et les temporalités pour inviter à une réflexion critique sur la «technologisation» croissante du contrôle social.

All of the now classic images within it—alongside a group of never published photographs—examine a once pristine land stewarded by indigenous peoples who needed no lessons in stewardship, and a land now occupied by a mix of peoples hoping for salvation(...)

Summary:
Often out of print, this new edition of Joel Sternfeld’s seminal book returns to the format of the original 1987 edition. All of the now classic images within it—alongside a group of never published photographs—examine a once pristine land stewarded by indigenous peoples who needed no lessons in stewardship, and a land now occupied by a mix of peoples hoping for salvation within the fraught paths of late capitalism. The result suggests a vast nation whose prospects have much to do with global prospects, a “teenager of the world” unaware of its strengths, filled with idealism and frequent failings.

''In 1991, I moved to Berlin for four years. The Berlin wall had just fallen but you could still see sections of it, and certainly still feel the divide between the Capitalist and Socialist states. Discovering Central Europe meant learning about some very dark history. The scars of Totalitarianism were deep, visible and raw from both the Cold War and the preceding Second(...)

Summary:
''In 1991, I moved to Berlin for four years. The Berlin wall had just fallen but you could still see sections of it, and certainly still feel the divide between the Capitalist and Socialist states. Discovering Central Europe meant learning about some very dark history. The scars of Totalitarianism were deep, visible and raw from both the Cold War and the preceding Second World War. These photographs were taken in Montreal during the Fall and Winter of 2013/14. I wanted to find a common visual ground where, through historical images we've all seen, my memories could be shared. I revisited these memories influenced by the political climate and my fear of a rising wave of militant nationalism and the return of the Police State. This work reflects some of my concerns through the evoking of personal and collective memories and the linking of present with past, and local to global.'' Eric Tschaeppeler

Summary:
Siri Ekker Svendsen’s ''All the whisperings of the world'' is a photo book examining the visual connections between nature’s vulnerability and the effects of an allergic shock to the body. To accomplish this, the artist takes us on a journey to contemporary rainforest areas in South America. The locus of this process is the Brazil nut. The book weaves macro and micro perspectives with Svendsen’s classic black and white photographs, revealing the human body within a diverse ecosystem of complex interdependency. Images via microscope — body cells that have been destroyed due to allergic reactions — lead to images from scientific research on the body, flora, and fauna. A fragile connection is visualized, creating space to contemplate, fear, and grieve — ''All the whisperings of the world'' is an elegiac yearning for the loss of diversity in nature, which we see is also our own habitat.

Summary:
Sarah Malakoff’s large-scale color photographs investigate domestic interiors as both a refuge from and a re-creation of the outside world. In ''Personal History'', she turns her attention to objects displayed within American homes that reference culture, history, and ideology. Whether representations of historical figures, events, or monuments, the possessions point to a longing for connection to the past and an engagement with the world at large. Often the collections of objects underscore the privilege and power implicit in the act of collecting. These souvenirs resonate—sometimes humorously, sometimes disturbingly—with the other possessions and architecture that surround them, uneasily vacillating between heroism and kitsch, patriotism and colonialism.

Summary:
Depuis trente ans, Jacques Grison explore les effets de rémanence produits par les lieux de grandes souffrances. La rémanence s’entend ici comme cette persistance d’effets dont la cause a disparu depuis longtemps. « La photographie, dit-il, ouvre un champ privilégié et un temps d’expériences qui permettent d’interroger l’espace entre image et mémoire. C’est dans ces espaces de perceptions que nous maintenons nos morts en vie, [« à chaque instant vécu, nous précédons notre propre naissance », dit Antonin Artaud], c’est dans ces espaces de perceptions que nous nous construisons, que nous nous affranchissons et apprenons qui nous sommes, sans faux semblants, que nous apprenons à devenir libres au milieu de la pression, souvent monstrueuse, de l’homme, de son inhumaine condition et du chaos qu’il génère en permanence ». Au cours des quatre dernières années, en résidence dans l’enceinte de l’ancien asile de Ville-Evrard, il a poursuivi et radicalisé sa recherche. Cette nouvelle sélection de photographies synthétise ce qu’il considère comme un pan essentiel de son travail.

Summary:
Sculptor Mark Manders installed an exhibition in the Woning Van Wassenhove, a post-Brutalist house designed by Juliaan Lampens in 1974. Although Manders hardly touched some spaces, he treats the bed, office, and kitchen as stages for aggregation in line with the original occupant’s mindset: drawings, architectural proposals, photographs, artworks, paint pots, and seemingly wet clay are piled on top of one another. In Manders’s words: "The aim is to show the house in a perfect situation. While some spaces derail when you zoom in on them, there is a kaleidoscopic element to it, as if you are looking inside a head."
