‎Bernard Buffet - Secrets d'atelier‎

‎, Flammarion, 2004 Hardcover, 144 pages, Texte en Francais , Tres belle exemplaire, 320 x 250 x 20 mm, jacquette, illustration en n/b. ISBN 9782080112989.‎

‎Aussi c l bre, aussi adul que controvers , Bernard Buffet (1928-1999) a construit son ?uvre avec une r solution tragique. En une symphonie clatante, la vie et la mort s'y inscrivent comme sur le masque d'un clown. La photographie a saisi cela. Cet album est n d'une triple rencontre. Le peintre, la femme aim e et le photographe : en 1958, lors d'un reportage Saint-Tropez, Luc Fournol pr sent Annabel Bernard Buffet. Quarante-cinq ans plus tard, la compagne de toute une vie commente les photographies de Luc, devenu l'ami de toujours. Le premier portrait d'Annabel, la Passion du Christ, les damn s de Dante ou l' preuve de l'autoportrait il fallait la complicit d'un proche pour saisir le combat d'un peintre que l'inqui tude n'a jamais quitt . Car l'intimit d'un artiste, c'est son travail. Et les myst res de l'atelier sont plus difficiles percer que les secrets d'alc ve. Reflets d'une vie partag e entre tendre complicit , et tension cr atrice, les photographies de Luc Fournol et de Benjamin Auger se font l' cho de la sinc rit avec laquelle, chaque tableau, l'artiste remit son titre en jeu. Car si Bernard Buffet a pu se tromper, il n'a jamais trich . En mettant fin ses jours, le 4 octobre 1999, il tira la le on de ce combat qu'il quittait en vainqueur, pour n'avoir jamais renonc sa libert ni aux valeurs qui en faisaient le prix. Ami de jeunesse, t moin amical des v nements de la vie de Bernard Buffet, Luc Fournol, mieux que tout autre photographe, a su dresser le portrait de l'artiste face son ?uvre.‎

‎Jef Geys (1934 - 2018) graduated from the Antwerp art academy and settled in Balen, also in the Kempen, where he worked as an art teacher at a girls' school for more than 30 years. In fact, this was one of Geys' many ways of formulating a critique of society and of art ? a critique that is a fundamental value in his extensive, diverse and complex oeuvre. Geys has been described as an artist caught between a regional and international context, cut off from social reality. That is not necessarily true. In many ways he is a follower of Marcel Duchamp, who championed the strategy of stealth retreat. Geys has chosen to base his work on provincial references. All his exhibitions are accompanied by an issue of his Kempens Informatieblad, which he publishes himself and designs in such a way that it resembles a local, freely distributed newspaper. One of his main strategies is subversion which, as he rightly points out, can only happen 'within the system'. In 1970 Geys was invited to prepare a solo exhibition at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp. He replied with a letter to the museum ? and to the Ministry of Culture, Defense and Justice ? proposing to blow up the museum. Nevertheless, the exhibition took place the following year. This is characteristic of his method, which is process-oriented and confrontational: Geys creates situations so full of contradictory potential that they threaten to blow themselves up; by dismantling it, he shows the corrupting powers of current reality all the more convincingly.‎

‎THE RIDDLES OF UKIYO-E : Women and Men in Japanese Prints 1705-1865‎

‎, Ludion, 2023 Hardcover, 256 pages, ENG, 295 x 240 mm, NEW, illustrated in colour. ISBN 9789493039902.‎

‎Women and men - strong, proud, tragic or beautiful - from the heyday (1765-1865) of Japanese printmaking are this book's subject. It seeks to dig below the surface of the prints to describe the often subtle iconography employed in these masterful creations by the most famous artists of their time. It begins with Suzuki Harunobu's subdued and introverted scenes of women seated on verandas. The book then moves on to the spectacular 'big face' (okubi-e) portraits of prostitutes and Kabuki actors by artists like Kitagawa Utamaro, Toshusai Sharaku and Utagawa Kunimasa. Frail 'streetwalkers', forced by circumstance into the lowest ranks of prostitution, are transformed into elegant beauties, obscuring their tragic existence. The spectacle of heroes from Japan's rich mythological and pseudo-historical past crowd the printed sheet. Stern-faced actors drawn by the confident hands of Utagawa Toyokuni and his pupil Kunisada demonstrate the economy of line and powerful expression of the woodblock medium. Each print is explored in the finest detail in order to explain the riddles of Ukiyo-e -the intriguing and captivating mode of visual expression that would have such a profound influence on Western art.‎

‎Joel Sternfeld : Sweet Earth - Experimental Utopias in America‎

‎, Steidl Publishers, 2006 Hardcover, 136 pages, ENG, 345 x 280 x 20 mm, dustjacket, in Perfect condition, full page coloured photographs , Large format. ISBN 9783865211248.‎

‎As laissez-faire market forces sweep the globe and the earth's future seems endangered, the dream of living in concert with nature and with one another is increasingly essential. A common human longing throughout history, the utopian community ideal has taken root firmly in America over the past 200 years. In "Sweet Earth: Experimental Utopias in America," Joel Sternfeld looks at 60 representative historic or present American utopias. Neither a conventional history nor a conventional book of photography, "Sweet Earth" brings together what might otherwise seem disparate, individualized social phenomena and makes visible the community of communities. This tradition of thinking has ancient, universal precedents. When Thomas More wrote "Utopia" in 1516, he gave a name to an idea that had included the "Epic of Gilgamesh," Plato's "Republic" and the Old Testament's and he started an argument. Francis Bacon (who believed in utopia through science) and Jean-Jacques Rousseau (utopia through nature) soon joined the debate, but it was the harsh changes in daily life engendered by the factory systems of the early Industrial Revolution that brought an urgency to the discussion, as seen in the writings of David Owens, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. While the early social theorists were largely European, it was in the fluid environment of young America that true utopian communities were built and utopian experimentation flourished. In the years between 1810 and 1850, hundreds of secular and religious societies bravely tried to build a "perfect" life for their members. In the twentieth century, experimentation began again, reaching a fever pitch in the turbulent days of the Vietnam War. Some of the late-1960s communes still survive and continue to flourish. The 1990s and the early years of the new millennium have become yet another hotbed of social experimentation. The co-housing movement is sweeping America with at least 70 communities fully completed and occupied and numerous others planned. At the same time, the rapid global expansion of sustainable communities known as ecovillages has been widely adopted in America. This book by one of America's foremost artists includes a photograph of each community and is accompanied by brief text that summarizes the most salient aspects of the history or organization. A book that functions both as art, as well as a hopeful guide to alternative ways of life.‎
