Dès l'Antiquité, des hommes sont à la recherche du « vrai » visage le leur et celui d'autrui. Quelle vérité, quelle fiction ? D'autant qu'il y a certes le portrait et l'autoportrait, la biographie et l'autobiographie, mais aussi le masque. Comment se représenter le visage, le montrer dans une image, le dire dans un texte ? Par la vue ou par les mots ? Visage à voir ou visage à lire ? Là est le problème majeur du visage, avec ses enjeux existentiels et interhumains, éthiques et métaphysiques, organiques et philosophiques, artistiques et esthétiques. Les oeuvres des artistes permettent d'aborder des problématiques fondamentales pour et sur l'humain, pour et sur l'art : peinture, collage, sculpture, photographie, cinéma, littérature, etc. Toutes ces représentations diverses et singulières envisagent le visage dans son identité et son altérité : le visage et les visages.

Based on the experience at one of the largest centers for craniosynostosis and craniofacial malformations, this book reports on the clinical use of a rare technique known as Frontofacial Monobloc Advancement (FFMBA), one of the most rewarding procedures for upper- and mid-face reconstruction in patients with faciocraniosynostosis, a rare craniofacial anomaly associated with premature fusion of multiple cranial sutures presenting with brachycephaly, orbital proptosis, maxillary hypoplasia and anterior crossbite. Technical refinements and strategic planning have made it almost a routine procedure at the French Reference Center for Craniosynostosis and Craniofacial Malformations. This easy-to-consult, well illustrated book includes technical tips and indications for its use in Crouzon, Pfeiffer and Apert syndromes. It also provides a protocol, including a proposed management algorithm for faciocraniosynostosis. As such, it will appeal to craniofacial surgeons, especially those at large craniofacial centers.

This book is an interdisciplinary study of the engagement with and representation of the face across literature, photography, and theatre. It looks at how the face is an active agent, closely connected with the history of the media and the social interactions reflected in media images. Focusing on the dynamic period of the interwar years, it explores a range of case studies in Poland, UK, and the US, and examines artists like Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz (Witkacy), Virginia Woolf, Debora Vogel, Sir Cecil Beaton, Theodore Władysław Benda, and Edward Gordon Craig. Teresa Bruś argues that these writers and photographers defended the face against threats from modern life – not least, the media. She focuses on transformations of the face in life writing across a range of media and draws attention to the artists’ autobiographical narratives.

Dans l'univers artistique comme ailleurs, le visage n'est pas un objet parmis d'autres. Même au XXe siècle, où l'art a tendance à saisir l'anonymat plutôt que la spécificité, la représentation de la figure humaine provoque encore une sensation singulière. Entouré souvent d'une série d'accesoires qui permettent d'identifier sa position sociale, le portrait est un genre respectable dans l'histoire de l'art. Le visage, lui, semble avoir pris ses libertés. Chronologique et thématique, à la lisière entre l'essai personnel et la recherche, cet ouvrage suis les changements de la représentation du visage dans la peinture au cours du XXe et XXIe siècles. Désormais les peintres procèdent plus par allusions que par descriptions : effacés ou recouverts (Giacometti, Fautier), visages inexpressifs (Jawlensky, Malevitch), flous et méconnaissables (Michaud). Les conflits et les génocides font naître des visages spectraux (Mus̆ic̆, Boltanski). Avec les années 1960, on assiste au "retour" du visage, décliné en série (pop art et hyperréalisme). La figure humaine se transforme en masque quand les créateurs greffent sur leur apparence les traits d'un autre (Cindy Sherman) ou fabriquent une représentation "améliorée" de soi (Orlan). Comme l'a affirmé François Mauriac, chaque fois qu'un artiste réalise un visage, il recommence l'art.

This comprehensive and visually engaging color atlas and manual serves as an invaluable resource for orthognathic and orthofacial surgeons seeking detailed information on the various aspects of minimally invasive (MI) orthognathic surgery. The initial two chapters lay the foundation for a groundbreaking and innovative approach to MI orthognathic surgery, drawing from a wealth of 25 years of experience. The authors delve into the rationale behind this novel concept, aiming to enhance surgical efficiency and minimize patient morbidity. They present an in-depth exploration of the new surgical algorithm, which encompasses a systematic, step-by-step standardization of MI orthognathic techniques. The development of specialized MI orthognathic instruments and the introduction of innovative surgical codes, sequences, and templates are thoroughly elucidated. Subsequently, the following five chapters meticulously outline the "step-by-step" MI surgical techniques for the five primary orthognathic surgical procedures. These descriptions are accompanied by detailed illustrations, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of each technique. In the closing chapter, the book delves into the essential conditions required for successful MI orthognathic surgery, providing a thorough exploration of these necessary prerequisites. This book serves as a practical and user-friendly guide, offering clear and straightforward "step-by-step" instructions suitable for residents in training, junior surgeons, as well as experienced practitioners. Orthognathic and orthofacial surgeons will find "Minimally Invasive (MI) Orthognathic Surgery" to be an outstanding companion in their routine surgical practice.
