Abstract

The BUDA Arts centre in Kortrijk is one of the biggest workspaces in Europe dedicated to creation in the performing arts and will soon be celebrating its 10th anniversary. In the meantime, more than one thousand artists have worked in its studios and theatre venues. Workspaces, as a given (and often un-chosen) setting in which to work, have a great impact on the way the work is created and on the final result of the process. BUDA wants to work with the future vision of creation, to gather artists and people from other fields, to take position in the political debates, and remain out of the art institution.

Abstract

Cette correspondance entre Noëlle Renaude et Barbara Métais-Chastanier, qui devait n’être au départ qu’un bref entretien, a pris la tournure d’un ouvrage plus conséquent qui s’est inventé pendant plus d’une année. Devenant essai à deux voix, débordant la question initiale de l’accident, de l’imprévu et du hasard, il explore au fil du dialogue, de manière poétique, critique et digressive, le processus d’une écriture liée à l’énigme de la scène. Organisé en séquences journalières, le balancement des questions, des réponses et des réflexions, auquel se sont livrées librement les deux interlocutrices, a fini par produire, comme un accident, ce que Robert Cantarella appelle un « manuel de dérangement », et à cette occasion un traité sur le théâtre. This epistolary conversation between Noëlle Renaude and Barbara Métais-Chastanier was initially meant to be a short interview, yet it turned into a more substantial piece of work that they invented together for over a year. Moving beyond the realm of the original topics of the accident, the unexpected, and chance, it became a two-voice essay which, over the course of the dialogue, explores a writing process, linked to the enigma of the stage, in a poetic, critical, and digressive way. In daily sequences, the two correspondents freely engaged in a seesaw of questions, answers, and reflections, which finally produced, as if by accident, what Robert Cantarella calls a “Guide to Disruption” and, on this occasion, a treatise on theater.

Abstract

Les avancées scientifiques et les nouvelles technologies remodèlent le monde de manière tellement complexe qu'il devient difficile d'en saisir les principes directeurs. Il est maintenant possible de contrôler la structure de la matière à des échelles de taille tellement petites que les systèmes obtenus présentent des propriétés hors du commun et nos repères vacillent dans ce monde en continuelle mouvance qui nous oblige à repenser autrement notre relation au monde tangible. 0r, les images dont nous disposons pour nous saisir mentalement de ces mouvements et métamorphoses sont devenues inopérantes et sont à redessiner, à mettre en relation, à assembler autrement. C'est en ces lieux que l'art contemporain peut venir jouer son rôle d'intercesseur entre la matière-forme et la pensée humaine, entre la méta-réalité de l'œuvre et notre imaginaire social comme autant d'outils pour nous aider à opérer cette métamorphose de notre imaginaire.

Abstract

"Historically, “queer” was the slur used against those who were perceived to be or made to feel abnormal. Beginning in the 1980s, “queer” was reappropriated and embraced as a badge of honor. While queer draws its politics and affective force from the history of non-normative, gay, lesbian, and bisexual communities, it is not equivalent to these categories, nor is it an identity. Rather, it offers a strategic undercutting of the stability of identity and of the dispensation of power that shadows the assignment of categories and taxonomies. Artists who identify their practices as queer today call forth utopian and dystopian alternatives to the ordinary, adopt outlaw stances, embrace criminality and opacity, and forge unprecedented kinships, relationships, loves, and communities. Rather than a book of queer theory for artists, this is a book of artists' queer tactics and infectious concepts. By definition, there can be no singular “queer art.” Here, in the first Documents of Contemporary Art anthology to be centered on artists' writings, numerous conversations about queer practice are brought together from diverse individual, social and cultural contexts. Together these texts describe and examine the ways in which artists have used the concept of queer as a site of political and institutional critique, as a framework to develop new families and histories, as a spur to action, and as a basis from which to declare inassimilable difference." --

Abstract

Written by Ben van Berkel & Caroline Bos and published by Frame Publishers, Knowledge Matters is an exploration into a more agile form of practice - one that is scalable, relevant and opens conversations about the future of the discipline in the context of today’s knowledge sharing society. It does so by critically engaging the expanded set of demands now placed upon the profession – reframing these demands as the latent potentials of performative architecture in the 21st century. These potentials are explored, realised and speculated upon through the book’s 11 ‘Knowledge Tools’, with projects often appearing more than once and in various guises.Predicated on the belief that architecture’s inherently contextual quality provides ideal grounding through which to organise increasingly vast and accessible forms of knowledge into distinct and engaged entities, Knowledge Matters recasts architecture as the conduit through which the passive reception of knowledge is reimagined as the active production of it.

Abstract

Comme l’articulation des termes dans le titre l’indique, les trois derniers ont alimenté dans le passé ou alimentent aujourd’hui les principaux débats des théories sur l’art (comme résultat) et sur la création (comme processus). Discutant avec une remarquable érudition les principaux éléments de ces débats, de l’Antiquité à nos jours, François Rastier sait en renouveler profondément les enjeux en adoptant un point de vue original, sémio‑anthropologique, qui s’appuie sur les éléments majeurs de la sémiotique des cultures qu’il élabore depuis une vingtaine d’années désormais, dans le droit fil de la vaste philosophie des formes symboliques d’E. Cassirer, dont il est un des héritiers les plus marquants aujourd’hui.
