"Pionniers de l'art conceptuel et des liens entre arts, médias et société, General Idea (1969-1994) est l'une des entreprises artistiques les plus fécondes et visionnaires des dernières décennies du xxe siècle, à l'origine de l'une des œuvres canadiennes les plus influentes pour l'histoire de l'art contemporain international. Pendant les vingt-cinq années de leur collaboration, le trio composé de AA Bronson, Felix Partz et Jorge Zontal ont abordé et rejoué, autant au sein du monde de l'art que dans l'espace public, des thèmes aussi cruciaux que les médias de masse, le consumérisme, l'identité queer, le marché de l'art et la crise mondiale du sida."--Éditeur

Avec les arts plastiques, je n?ai pu que m?engager en terrain ennemi", disait Marcel Broodthaers. Quel est le sens de cet engagement ? Quel est l?enjeu du combat qui le conduit à la douloureuse décision de délaisser le champ de l?écriture poétique ? Son œuvre multiforme déjoue les interprétations. Plusieurs fils s?y tressent, selon une logique originale que déploie cet Éloge. Les références essentielles en sont Mallarmé, qu?il tient pour ' l?inventeur de l?espace moderne ', Magritte, à qui il fait crédit d?un ' resserrement de la notion de sujet ' et Lacan, pour qui ' la vérité a structure de fiction '. Une poétique de l?objet et de l?absence d?objet s?en déduit, ainsi qu?une pratique ironique des équivoques de la communication. S?y dessine la figure d?un artiste génial, qu?on n?a pas fini de découvrir.

Bettina is the first monograph to showcase the work of the previously unsung artist Bettina Grossman, whose wildly interdisciplinary practice spanned photography, sculpture, textile, cinema, drawing, and more. An eccentric personality fully dedicated to her art, Bettina lived in the famous Chelsea Hotel from 1968 until her death in late 2021. In her tiny studio, she produced and accumulated a considerable body of work, much of which has remained unseen and unpublished until now. Her interests ranged from geometric and abstract studies, drawn from observations of people on the street, to pieces that transformed language into graphic, abstract “verbal forms.” Incorporating strategies of chance and the abstraction of everyday form through repetition and seriality, Bettina pushed the photographic medium to and beyond its limits. As Robert Blackburn, artist and founder of the Printmaking Workshop, astutely observed of Bettina’s work: “The photography, film, sculpture are as one, for the photographic medium is employed not only for documentation but as an endless source of inspiration from which other disciplines emerge—and merge.”

For "Identity Pitches", artists Cory Arcangel (born 1978) and Stine Janvin (born 1985) have composed conceptual music scores based on the knitting patterns for traditional Norwegian sweaters known as Lusekofte. Utilizing three of the most popular designs (Setesdal, Fana and the eight-petal rose of Selbu) of this ubiquitous garment, Janvin creates scores for both solo and ensemble performers by mapping the knitting patterns onto the harmonic and subharmonic series and integrating the tuning principles of traditional Norwegian instruments. These scores are further manipulated by Arcangel using a custom "deep-fried" coding script to create a series of image glitches. A foreword and an interview between the two artists, both based in Stavanger, Norway, provide context for the work, delving into the history of Norwegian folk music tunings and the Lusekofte sweater and their intersection with the cultural identity of the country over the last millennium

"Gordon Matta-Clark (1943-1978) has never been an easy artist to categorize or to explain. Although trained as an architect, he has been described as a sculptor, a photographer, an organizer of performances, and a writer of manifestos, but he is best known for un-building abandoned structures. In the brief span of his career, from 1968 to his early death in 1978, he created an oeuvre that has made him an enduring cult figure. In 2002, when Gordon Matta-Clark's widow, Jane Crawford, put his archive on deposit at the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal, it revealed a new voice in the ongoing discussion of artist/architect Matta-Clark's work: his own. Gwendolyn Owens and Philip Ursprung's careful selection and ordering of letters, interviews, statements, and the now-famous art cards from the CCA as well as other sources deepens our understanding of one of the most original thinkers of his generation. Gordon Matta-Clark: An Archival Sourcebook creates a multidimensional portrait that provides an opportunity for readers to explore and enjoy the complexity and contradiction that was Gordon Matta-Clark"--

Broken Narrative provides an extensive reflection on history, politics, and contemporary art, revolving around the cornerstones of the artistic practice of Albanian artist Armando Lulaj. The core of the book is formed by and extended interview of Lulaj by Italian artist and writer Marco Mazzi. This inquiry starts in the year 1997, a year of social and political upheaval in Albania, of anarchy, controversies and emigration, of toxic seeds of neoliberalism sprouting in an already wounded country, and continues to the present day, where politics, hidden behind art forms, has practically destroyed (again) every different and possible future of the country. This book also sketches out a connection between the recent Albanian political context and contemporary art by considering the realities of Albania as essential for an understanding of the dynamics of international power in contemporary art and architecture, and the role of politics therein.Broken Narrative comes in a bilingual English–Japanese edition, in part as homage to the subtle esthetics of Japanese poetry, which has inspired many of the Lulaj’s works, while equally evoking the subversive films of the Red Army, active in Japan at the turn of the 1960s and ’70s. Broken Narrative contains a double preface in English by Albanian scholar Jonida Gashi and in Japanese by photographer Osamu Kanemura.

"A path along the floor, of proportions 1x21 units, photographed. Photographs printed actual size of objects and prints attached to the floor so that images are perfectly congruent with their objects." With these words of instruction, typed on a humble card in 1967, Victor Burgin conceived one of the most profound and remarkable works of photographic art. Each time it was exhibited, it had to be made anew, unique to its setting. Embracing Minimal and Conceptual art, performance and site-specific installation, there is no other artwork like Photopath. In his characteristically analytical and associative manner, writer and curator David Campany takes the reader through the history and implications of Photopath, and their place in the breadth of Victor Burgin's art and theoretical writings.

Depuis leur rencontre en 1985, Ann Veronica Janssens et Michel François ont tourné autour de l'autre, se rapprochant régulièrement ou s'éloignant parfois. Cet ouvrage met en scène un dialogue intime entre leurs œuvres, retraçant les « liaisons feutrées et les tensions subtiles », comme l'écrit Guillaume Désanges, directeur du Palais de Tokyo, qui affleurent à la surface de deux œuvres remarquablement distinctes. En plus de cent soixante œuvres d'art, cette publication historique rassemble une vaste collection de recherches et de photographies personnelles couvrant quatre décennies de pratique.

A compendious overview of the revered and subversive queer Canadian collectivePublished on the occasion of the huge retrospective General Idea at the National Gallery of Canada, Ontario, and the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (2022?2023), this volume constitutes the most comprehensive source on the Canadian collective General Idea, founded in Toronto in 1969 by Felix Partz, Jorge Zontal, and AA Bronson, and active until the death of Partz and Zontal in 1994.The volume is arranged in three parts: I. Performances and Actions; II. In the Streets; III. In the Showroom. The first two parts focus on works and methods that extend beyond the traditional museum exhibition, documenting ephemeral, time-based, and even disposable works. The third part includes a plates section offering a near-complete visual survey of General Idea?s practice. Facing-page comparative images show works as they appeared in historical installations and other relevant contexts. These three sections correspond broadly to the collective?s development: from performances, actions, pageants, and other practices (1969?1978), through works engaging with mass media formats such as the magazine, broadcast television, and video (1972?1980s), moving finally to works conceived for galleries and museums (1985?1994).bron : https://jrp-editions.com/art/books/monographs-artists-books/general-idea/
