Chichester: John´Wiley and Sons, 2002. Softcover. X, 470 pp. Illustrated. Fine clean copy. "The 20th century was the most brutal and destructive hundred-year period in human history. More people were killed in its wars, large and small, than in any other century. At times, the will to destruction was so immensely overpowering that the very future of human life seemed to be threatened. Yet, at the same time, it was also the most civilising and creative of centuries. Cities everywhere have been the engines and the symbols of economic growth, intensifying production, distribution and consumption. Generally speaking, though, the richest nations of the world have also been those with the biggest proportions of their populations living in urban areas. It is not surprising therefore that, during the 20th century, the affluent nations devoted so much attention to ameliorating and, indeed, trying to perfect the city. The underlying aim was to reconcile its economic dynamism with its other roles as a social, cultural and political entity. By 1914, these efforts were sufficiently developed in most advanced capitalist countries to warrant being given a specific name, such as Städtebau, town planning, urbanisme, city planning, stedebouw, toshi keikatu or urbanismo. Of course, the notion of consciously shaping the physical form and disposition of the urban environment was not itself without historical precedent. What was new to the late 19th and, more especially, the 20th centuries, was the idea of making urban planning an integral part of capitalist urban development within broadly liberal and democratic societies. The story of how this happened forms the central concern of this book. It is, in other words, a wide and long survey of the development of urban planning in the advanced capitalist world",

Edinburgh University Press with John Hansard Gallery, 2016. 4to in stiff wraps as issued. 116 pages, plus plates at end. Near fine clean copy with only minor shelfwear. First edition. "The influence of Roland Barthes on Burgin's work is well documented. Equally, Burgin's prominence as an artist and theorist concerned with text and image offers a productive dialogue with Barthes' work. Victor Burgin has long been considered both theorist and practitioner, while Barthes is more known as a theorist and writer. In bringing to the fore Barthes's practice of painting and drawing, Barthes/Burgin prompts a new critical consideration of Barthes/Burgin, theory/practice, writing/making and criticality/visuality. Barthes/Burgin features two new interviews with Burgin, one concerned with his turn to new digital practices and the other a reflection on his reading of Roland Barthes. Also included are images and texts from the artists and an essay critically examining Barthes' exercises in drawing and painting. This book accompanied an exhibition at the John Hansard Gallery (February to April 2016), bringing together recent projection works by Victor Burgin and a selection of drawings by Roland Barthes rarely seen outside of France. The exhibition played with Barthes' use of the slash as established in semiology (and notably used in the title of Barthes' key poststructuralist work S/Z). "

Paris: Centre Pompidou / rmm, 2006. DVD. Looks unplayed. French / English. Director Francois Levy-Kuentz's film uses previously unreleased archival material, such as Klein's personal films, to capture the artist's astonishing career, from its beginning in 1954 to his death in 1962. In those eight short years, Klein turned the modern art world upside down. Besides inventing IKB, he was at the forefront of monochrome paintings, was early to photo manipulation (his most famous, Le Saut dans le Vide, has him flying from a wall, diving).

Denmark: Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, 2022. Large tall 4to in wraps as issued. 108 pages, richly illustrated. Text in English. Fine unread copy. 1. ed. Book designed by Michael Jensen of K Grafik. - Dorothy Iannone was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1933. Her father died when she was two years old and she was raised by her mother Sarah Nicoletti Iannone, later Sarah Pucci. She graduated from Boston University in 1957 with a B.A. in American Literature. She went on to study English literature at the graduate level at Brandeis University. In 1958 she married the painter James Upham and the couple moved to New York City. The following year, Iannone taught herself to paint alongside her husband. Between 1963 and 1967 she exhibited with her husband at the Stryke Gallery, an exhibition space she ran with her husband in New York and traveled frequently to Europe and Asia. In 1961 the U.S. Customs at the Idlewild Airport in Queens, New York seized her book The Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller she was traveling with and which was banned at the time. Iannone sued the U.S. Customs with assistance from the New York Civil Liberties Union, which caused her book to be returned and the ban on Miller to be lifted. The majority of Iannone's paintings, texts, and visual narratives depict themes of erotic love. Her explicit renderings of the human body draw heavily from the artist's travels and from Japanese woodcuts, Greek vases, and visual motifs from Eastern religions, including Tibetan Buddhism, Indian Tantrism and Christian ecstatic traditions like those of the seventeenth-century Baroque. Her small wooden statues of celebrities with visible genitals, including Charlie Chaplin and Jacqueline Kennedy, especially display with the artist's interest in African tribal statues. The explicit nature of Iannone's work frequently fell foul of censors in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. The artist said of the early censorship of her work: "When my work was not censored outright, it was either mildly ridiculed or described as folkloric, or just ignored. In 1969 the Kunsthalle Bern tried to censor Iannone's work in the group exhibition Ausstellung der Freunde by requesting that she cover up the genitals of her figures. In protest Dieter Roth dropped out of the exhibition and the curator of the Kunsthalle Bern, Harald Szeeman, resigned. Iannone recalled the experience in the Fluxus publication The Story of Bern or Showing Colors (1970).
