L’art de la caricature

Cet ouvrage aborde la question de la caricature, longtemps tenue pour un art mineur, à partir d’approches qui en ont renouvelé l’étude. Il réunit des contributions d’historiens de l’art et de littéraires venus d’horizons divers, depuis Montréal et New York jusqu’à Vienne, en passant par Dijon, Strasbourg et Paris. Il s’efforce d’en apprécier autant la portée expérimentale et novatrice, tout à la fois pratique et théorique, que l’engagement politique, social et polémique, et les implications esthétiques. Cet art moderne et graphique qui a recours au rire comme à une arme procède d’une anthropologie de l’image associée à l’histoire du corps et des émotions.

Madness and Creativity

Analyst and author Ann Belford Ulanov draws on her years of clinical work and reflection to make the point that madness and creativity share a kinship, an insight that shakes both analysand and analyst to the core, reminding us as it does that the suffering places of the human psyche are inextricably—and, often inexplicably—related to the fountains of creativity, service, and even genius. She poses disturbing questions: How do we depend on order, when chaos is a necessary part of existence? What are we to make of evil—both that surrounding us and that within us? Is there a myth of meaning that can contain all the differences that threaten to shatter us?

Artwash: Big Oil and the Arts

Published on the fifth anniversary of the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster, Artwash is an intervention into the unsavoury role of the Big Oil company’s sponsorship of the arts in Britain. Based on a high profile campaign, Mel Evans targets Chevron, ExxonMobil, BP and Shell’s collaboration with institutions such as the Tate in an attempt to end the poisonous relationship forever. Based on years of undercover research, grassroots investigation and activism as well as performance and cultural interventions, Mel Evans draws together the story of the campaign and its journey which has gone from strength to strength.
