Utopics : systems and landmarks / [Simon Lamunière, editor ; contributors, Fabienne Bideau [and others]].

Zurich : JRP Ringier ; New York, NY : [Distributed by] D.A.P./Distributed Art Publishers, ©2009.

154 pages : illustrations (chiefly color) ; 23 cm

Conceived as a glossary, this publication examines the spaces, nations, and communities created by artists or individuals to develop alternative modes of living. The title itself is a free contraction of utopias, topic, topos, and pics. All the proposals galthered here are simultaneously real and utopic: by inventing identity signs (flags, constitutions, etc.), practicing naturism, terrorism, or collectivism, by working at the boundaries of reality, they challenge our definitions of normalcy and territoriality.
