Condition: New. In It Needed to be Tender and to be Whipped, one is exposed to Bénaâs view on everyday situations, a view filled with wonder and thus perceptive of the mystery in small things. Narrations escape into the irrational and surreal. A love affair is just as wonderful as a stranger eating an apple. The scope of expression found in Béna's use of language demonstrates how relationships form between an artistâs writing and their other practices. Since most texts are intended to be performed or read aloud, the book is accompanied by an audio recording of the works on a USB key.Julie Béna works on environments that draw inspiration from the world of literature, film, theater and popular culture. Béna studied at the Villa Arson in Nice and attended the Gerrit Rietveld Academie at Amsterdam. In 2012-2013, she was part of le Pavillon, the research laboratory of le Palais de Tokyo.Contributors: Daniel S.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. An expansive survey of video, installation and more from Arthur Jafa, whose practice is "a counterpunch to anyone who wants to put people of color in their place" (Wes Hill)Published with LUMA Arles. Over several decades, American filmmaker and artist Arthur Jafa has constructed a compelling body of work that defies categorization. Both powerful and lyrical, his practice combines a profoundly unsettling blend of images and histories. Bringing together affective memories that touch on US history, violence, repression, modalities of survival and how these exist in the production and dissemination of images, music, sound and time-based media, Jafa reflects on the ontology of race and Blackness. This richly illustrated catalog reproduces key works from Jafa's wide-ranging oeuvre and explores the philosophical, historical and artistic implications of his practice, featuring essays and a series of conversations between Jafa and key practitioners working in the fields of cinema, arts and theory.Arthur Jafa (born 1960) grew up in Mississippi, where his lifelong fascination with found imagery manifested in his childhood hobby of assembling binders of photographs culled from various sources. As a cinematographer and director of photography, Jafa has collaborated with Stanley Kubrick, Solange Knowles and Spike Lee, among many others. His work on Julie Dash's 1991 film Daughters of the Dust won him the Best Cinematography award at Sundance. At the 2019 Venice Biennale, he was awarded the Golden Lion for The White Album. Jafa lives and works in Los Angeles. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Couverture rigide. Condition: Neuf. Edition originale. Paris 2017. 1 Volume/1. -- Neuf -- Reliure éditeur cartonnée sous jaquette illustrée . Format 31 x 24,5 cm. ------ 132 pages avec 110 illustrations en couleurs. ******************* "" Modèle de vie, élan nostalgique, réalité complexe, fantasme, utopie : qu'est-ce que « la vie simple » ? Nombreux sont ceux qui ont rêvé, expérimenté ou éprouvé une « vie simple » aux mille visages ; certains espérant atteindre la quintessence d'une vie véritable, voulant exister hors des sentiers tracés par l'industrialisation, la norme et le capitalisme. En convoquant des époques et des univers artistiques très divers, l'exposition thématique « La Vie simple Simplement la vie » interroge les représentations, contradictions et points aveugles de l'idée de « vie simple ». Elle associe des objets de piété populaire et des reproductions d'oeuvres peintes ou gravées témoignant de la puissance industrielle de l'illustration propre au XIXe siècle à la création actuelle. Ce vaste ensemble engendre un foisonnement des genres renforcé par l'énergie de l'art contemporain. Les artistes invités pour l'exposition proposent une réflexion sur des thématiques telles que l'humilité, l'empathie, l'aliénation, la botanique comme métaphore du pouvoir, l'architecture survivaliste et notre rapport trop humain à la nature. Le présent ouvrage reflète cette libre exploration en offrant plusieurs regards sur « la vie simple » à travers les essais de Bice Curiger, Clémentine Deliss, Flora Katz, Julia Marchand et Dominique Serena-Allier. Parmi les cent dix illustrations du catalogue, des photographies des salles d'exposition de la Fondation Vincent van Gogh Arles montrent les oeuvres inédites créées in situ. .
