Résumé:
Se plaçant résolument sur le terrain de l'écart et du corps, c'est-à-dire d'une expérience quasi physique et littérale de la photographie, Denis Bernard reconsidère l'ensemble de ce qui la fonde et l'oriente, et notamment ses invariants techniques. Que nous dit Denis Bernard ? Qu'il y a un "angle mort de la photographie". Standards, normalisations, dispositifs et dispositions, en s'imposant, ont figé peu à peu les choses. L'aventure, dès lors, consiste à regarder, ressentir ou penser différemment le "fait technique". D'où la nécessité de remettre en cause "toute décision qui a conduit à ne pas voir" et d'opérer un glissement singulier du centre vers le bord ou l'épaisseur de l'image. On visera ainsi à préparer des "pièges à lumière perdue", à scruter "l'à côté de la plaque", à traquer des "seuils de transparence", à saisir "l'empreinte d'un coup de foudre" ou inventer des "machines à voir". Nouvelle donne: il s'agit de photographier autrement. De "voir encore, dedans et au-delà". De privilégier les "brouillons acharnés" d'une "nouvelle étreinte".

Résumé:
The Bitter Years was the title of a seminal exhibition held in 1962 at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, curated by Edward Steichen, and 2012 marks its fiftieth anniversary. The show featured 209 images by photographers who worked under the aegis of the U.S. Farm Security Administration (FSA) in 1935–41, as part of Roosevelt’s New Deal. The FSA, set up to combat rural poverty during the Great Depression, included an ambitious photography project that launched many photographic careers, most notably those of Walker Evans and Dorothea Lange. The exhibition featured their work as well as that of ten other FSA photographers, including Ben Shahn, Carl Mydans and Arthur Rothstein. Their images are among the most remarkable in documentary photography--testimonies of a people in crisis, hit by the full force of economic turmoil and the effects of drought and dust storms.

La Tour Eiffel est un livre double qui réunit le texte de Roland Barthes et les photographies d’'André Martin. Symbole de Paris pour le monde entier, ce monument que l’'on voit de partout, nous propose lui-même en retour un regard panoramique pour contempler la ville et en faire la conquête. Édifice longtemps décrié, pleinement et ouvertement inutile, il est d'’abord un objet d’une grande prouesse technique, un signe d'’audace et de modernité qui est devenu au fil du temps une oeuvre artistique, une dentelle de fer, signe de légèreté et, par sa verticalité, de l'’impossible tentative de l'’homme pour atteindre le ciel.

Résumé:
More than an exhibition catalogue, this reference book is lavishly illustrated with the works from the 25 exhibitions of the event, and includes essays by leading commentators on contemporary art and technology. The camera is not a tool just waiting to be picked up and used, but a sophisticated instrument with its own laws, its own ways of working, and even its own life. With the incorporation of automatic devices – and, more recently, computers – the camera has its own agency. It can see what is invisible to the human eye; it can work continuously; it can travel to places that humans would find impossible or dangerous to visit; it can enter the human body and travel into outer space. It has been taken for granted that the photographic image is the most important aspect of the photographic process. However, the artists and writers in Drone: The Automated Image suggest something completely different. At the centre of their concerns is the changing relationship between the camera and the body and how the camera can function with little human involvement. As humans rely more and more on technology to extend vision, the camera takes on behaviours associated with the body. From CCTV to Google Street View, from remote cameras to robots, and from photo booths to drones, cameras are remaking the conditions of human existence.

Concrete: Photography and Architecture explores this deep and often complex relationship, with particular attention paid not only to how photography influences the perception of architecture but also the very design itself.

Résumé:
Throughout the modern era, photography has been enlisted not only to document but also to classify the world and its people. Its status bolstered by a popular belief in the scientific objectivity of photographic evidence, photography has been used, from the earliest days of the medium, to produce and organize knowledge about the external world. Published to accompany the exhibition The Order of Things: Photography from The Walther Collection, this catalogue investigates the production and uses of serial portraiture, vernacular imagery, architectural surveys and time-based performance in photography from the 1880s to the present, bringing together works by artists from Europe, Africa, Asia and North America.
