Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This essay series attempts to stimulate the debate about the moral challenges that internationalisation confronts us with, both in the Netherlands and abroad, and in particular for Artist-in-Residencies (AIRs). The publication is a reflection on how the crisis is reconsidering our international ambitions, starting from a post-COVID society. Internationalisation is an inevitable reality, inherent to the art landscape. The current time calls for a critical reflection on major issues such as climate inequality, plurality and the Western-dominant canon. With contributions and critical insights by Jeanne van Heeswijk, Jack Segbars, Erik Hagoort, Pascal Gielen, Cecilia Bengtsson, Merlijn Twaalfhoven, Hicham Khalidi, reinaart vanhoe and Suzanne van der Beek. Thanks to Jan van Eyck Academie, Mondriaan Fonds, Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds en het Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst for their support.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - And then, as if out of nowhere, everything built be-came HERITAGE. The regulation would be confirmed in writing shortly, but on the telephone the office clerk left no room for doubt. Every brick, every beam and pipe, every tile, faucet and roofline had to be preserved. THE SITUATION AS IT IS, WILL BE THE SITUATION AS IT IS. The administration chose a new approach: a radical shift from ambiguous-at times obscure-decisions, procedures and decrees to an era of HYPER-REGULATION. Startled, THE ARCHITECT hung up. He looked at the list of construction sites he planned on visiting that day, grabbed his car keys and camera, and left. He wondered if, later on, his wife and kids would still be in the living room where he heard them playing now. THE SITUATION AS IT IS\*\* is the story of an architect's ring binders, an archive filled with negatives and scattered subjects. THE PHOTOGRAPHS try to tell a story of an existing condition\*: this is the state things are in. Within these binders buildings are perpetually unfinished. The dog keeps barking. It's our third birthday, again. Decades after they were exposed, these photographs appear to reveal the first traces of THE IMPASSE. \*\*\*\* Documenting the existing condition (de bestaande toestand) is a legally required aspect of a building application within the context of architecture and urban development: photographs describe a building, a landscape, infrastructure. in order for it to be demolished, adjusted, built. The existence of the image, the document that presents THE SITUATION AS IT IS, usually implies and initiates change. \*\* THE SITUATION AS IT IS unfolded in 15 episodes of three frames that revolved rhythmically on a billboard mounted onto 019's facade. \*\*\* Part of the research project Documenting Objects, conducted by Arnout and Michiel De Cleene at KASK, the school of arts of HOGENT and Howest.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In the months that preceded the global spread of COVID-19, a series of airborne events transformed the atmosphere of the Indo-Pacific region; the bushfire smoke on the East coast of Australia, the tear gas used in the Santiago de Chile and Hong Kong protests, the Indian Supreme Court ruling on Delhi's pollution failures, and activists covering iconic statues with respirators across Johannesburg and Pretoria. All these incidents map the political struggles taking place in the region's air, triggering a proliferation of masked faces avant la lettre. The publication Folk Costumes, Indo-Pacific Air is an account of the region's masked state. It brings together culturally and geographically diverse case studies exploring air's effects on the body to describe the emergent wearable architectures it produces. Considered as folk costumes, these wearables are socio-technical constructions that mediate our relationship with the environment-they negotiate our daily struggles, emancipatory efforts, and emotional inner-lives. Discussing air as a political matter, the book collects contributions by scientists, writers, historians, architects, photographers, and dilettantes, encouraging readers to fly freely between visual and conceptual affinities to create a map of a region in the making. Edited by Urtzi Grau and Guillermo Fernández-Abascal with contributions by Dean Cross, Hamish McIntosh, Peter McNeil,Hélène Frichot,La Escuela Nunca y Otros Futuros,Lidia Morawska, Juan Elvira, Matthew Connors, Ricarda Bigolin, Peter Irga and Fraser Torpy, Sharbendu De, Enoch Cheng, Samaneh Moafi, Sumayya Vally,Matteo Dal Vera, and Achille Mbembe.…
