Summary:
A quoi rêvent ceux qui vivent à la cime des arbres dans des cabanes ? Les enfants y voient une cachette pour abriter leurs jeux et les adultes un cocon pour y savourer la douceur de vivre. Au milieu des branchages, ces cabanes invitent les citadins à renouer avec leurs sensations, en harmonie avec la nature, quand les aventuriers s'imaginent déjà arpenter les ponts de singe. Selon l'envie, la cabane devient bulle d'inspiration pour le poète, lieu de réflexion pour le philosophe, salle de concert pour le mélomane, bibliothèque suspendue pour l'amoureux des livres... Les quarante cabanes présentées ici ont toutes leur propre histoire, qui se mêle à celle de leur propriétaire et de l'arbre qui les reçoit.

Building big
$14.95
(available to order)
Summary:
Building Big focuses on the connections between the planning and design problems and the solutions that are finally reached. Whether a structure is imposing or inspiring, author David MacCaulay shows us that common sense and logic play just as important a part in architecture as imagination and technology do.

Summary:
Drawing attention to the visual quality of concentration, sensation, relations, attraction and repulsion Dutch artist Esther Tielemans presents painted panels as decor hanging on the wall, lying on the floor or hanging free in space. Taken together, these forms act almost like props, creating a large-scale abstract landscape for the viewer to wander.

Summary:
Depuis plusieurs années, Anthony Duchêne s’intéresse à l’univers des sensations, gustatives, olfactives, visuelles et tactiles. Entrecroisant les domaines rationnels et ceux des sciences humaines, l’artiste évoque par ses réalisations des figures d’hybridations et de mutations d’espèces végétales et animales à partir desquelles il imagine des combinaisons inédites. Il provoque des rapprochements de parties animales, de matériaux et de composants disparates qui, visuellement, apparaissent soutenus par une logique organique, mais ne sont en réalité que des leurres, des faux-semblants.

Summary:
William Kentridge’s recent work is situated on the border between art and science: by examining our perception and understanding of time, he reconsiders the creative process. A work in progress in the truest sense, The Refusal of Time continues and deepens the polymorphic, dreamlike, political and humanist body of work developed by Kentridge from his very earliest days as an artist.

Summary:
Cet ouvrage constitue une première monographie sur le travail photographique de Jean-Claude Pondevie auquel répond, égréné au fil des pages, un poème d’Eric Reinhardt. Jean-Claude Pondevie développe un travail photographique depuis plus de dix ans autour de paysages sans aucuns repères de lieux, ni de temps. À travers ces vues intérieures et extérieures aux cadrages cinématographiques, il s’intéresse au « hors-champ », à l’espace dans lequel s’inscrit notre réalité sans la documenter. L’architecture est réduite à des formes abstraites sur lesquels se dessinent des jeux d’ombre, de lumière, des effets de transparence qui donnent une sensation d'étrangeté.
