Palais allows people to see contemporary art in a topical way, as often as possible from the point of view of the artists themselves. Each season, the magazine includes dossiers, interviews, essays, special projects and inserts, all contributed by artists, art critics, historians or theorists, making Palais magazine an essential tool for apprehending contemporary art. Echoing the Palais de Tokyo's new season, this issue of Palais is infused with the poetic genius of Raymond Roussel, great explorer of invented worlds, causing us constantly to topple over into a different mental geometry. Contents of this issue: essays by Matthieu Poirier on Julio Le Parc, Niklas Maak on Franois Curlet, Dieter Roelstraete and Yann Chateign Tytelman on recent works by Joachim Koester, Amlie Lavin on Dewar & Gicquel; visual contributions by Takahiro Iwasaki and Evariste Richer; a focus on seven artists from the emerging contemporary scene (Marcos Avila Forero, Hicham Berrada, Gauthier Leroy, Lars Morell, Jean-Michel Pancin, Pierre Paulin, Clmence Seilles); under the heading Hell as discussion, Nadja Argyropoulou, curator, and Yorgos Tzirtzilakis, architect, discuss Greece's demonization as a symptom of the European crisis. Palais also invites Franois Piron, curator of the exhibition New Impressions of Raymond Roussel, to create a dossier in dialogue with this venture. In it, he comments on the writer's whimsical personality and on his mysterious work in which, as Roussel stated, Nothing real must enter. Accompanied by historians, by art critics and artists, Piron approaches the topic diagonally to consider the propagation of Roussel's work through that of many artists. Dossier conceived by Franois Piron, with texts by Lorenzo Benedetti (on Mark Manders), Marie de Brugerolle (addressing the subject of Roussel's Californian heritage), Bernard Marcad (on the congruencies between Duchamp and Roussel), Alain Quella-Villger (on the relationship between Roussel and Loti), and including an excerpt from Rodney Grahams Rousselian novel.

Murakami Saburo - Through The '70s Seigensha Art Publishing 2013 ISBN 9784861523847 Acqn 22470 Hb 19x26cm 160pp 170ills 100col 33.50 Published in conjunction with an exhibition at ARTCOURT Gallery in Osaka, this broad survey explores the expression and diverse changes through the career of this central member of the Gutai Art Association.

The book therefore offers a particularly in-depth reexamination of his solo exhibitions and independent work in that period. Numerous paintings, photos, and film stills accompany critical essays, an interview by Kzu Yoshinori, and texts by Sabur himself.

Tadanori Yokoo - Kora-ju Kokushu 2012 ISBN 9784336055231 Acqn 22478 Hb 23x31cm 158pp 94col ills 45 Tadanori Yokoo is one of Japan's most prolific and internationally recognised graphic designers and artists, whose body of work also includes illustration, printmaking, painting and collage. The pages of this book are filled with almost 100 clipped and pasted compositions spanning 40 years of work, many of them recent and new pieces. As described by Hideo Namba in the accompanying critical essay, Yokoos art is the act of freely creating a work on the basis of intuition and (human) instinct. Striking a strangely convincing balance between the natural and unnatural, his juxtapositions and commentary of popular culture pose solutions to contradictory themes.

Minoru Nomata Elements Seigensha Art Publishing 2012 ISBN 9784861523816 Acqn 22481 Pb 15x19cm 176pp 75col ills 33.50 Minoru Nomata produces images of imaginary buildings. His works express a unique formal imagination, lending the precise, fantastical architectural forms a strong sense of presence, despite being located in an apparent nowhere landscape, and reveal the artists proclivity for the mechanical forms of modern industry and building. The collection of drawings presented here originated from an offer to illustrate weekly social columns in a newspaper, with the stipulation that they be square. Later, the small pictures came to be impacted by the tsunami and its aftermath inspiration returned to the building blocks of architecture, transcending real time and space.

Aiko Miyanagi - Nakasora. The Reason For Eternity Seigensha Art Publishing 2012 ISBN 9784861523687 Acqn 22482 Hb 17x25cm 128pp 64ills 60col 38.50 Published in conjunction with the exhibition at the National Museum of Art in Osaka, this entrancing book captures the essence of Aiko Miyanagas ephemeral artworks. Making moulds of objects such as keys, butterflies, puzzle pieces and bowls, she then casts them in naphthalene a synthetic material commonly found in mothballs. Placed in vitrines, the delicate objects slowly evaporate over a matter of mere weeks. The naphthalene accumulates in crystalline formations on the inside of the glass, a powerful indication of the impermanent, changeable nature of all things. Includes texts by Miyanaga, Jean de Loisy, Akira Tatehata, Yasuyuki Nakai and Shin-Ichi Fukuoka.

Akira Yamaguchi - The Big Picture Seigensha Art Publishing 2012 ISBN 9784861523670 Acqn 22483 Pb 23x30cm 230pp 150col ills 45 This is the first large-format publication on the work of Japanese painter Yamaguchi Akira, whose style combines contemporary oil painting techniques with the classical Japanese composition style Yamato-e. His work addresses the problematic dichotomy that arises when traditional Japanese and Western art are combined. His expansive scenes with many small figures, meticulous depictions of architecture, and an oblique perspective from above that shows cutaways of buildings, revealing the activity therein, might easily overwhelm the viewer. Sawaragi Noi observes in his essay that the artist is a designer who has attained the highest level a highly sophisticated model-maker.

Trevor Paglen Secession Revolver Publishing by VVV 2010 ISBN 9783868951318 Acqn 22432 Pb 23x31cm 56pp 43ills 36col 16 The work of American artist, writer and experimental geographer Trevor Paglen centres on a political and aesthetic engagement with the covert activities of the U.S. secret services and military, collectively known by the name Black World. His motto might well be: Make the invisible visible. His work is based on attentive observation, meticulous research and extensive data collection. To realize his works mostly photographs and video pieces - Paglen uses technologically advanced equipment including the kind of special cameras and precision telescopes utilized in space photography. In this way, he is able to photograph, from great distances, classified military facilities buffered by huge areas of restricted land, or, using long exposures, to document the flight paths and thus the existence - of satellites. Cooperation with international amateur networks of aircraft and satellite spotters and the information they provide form the basis for identifying the satellites and orbits used by the CIA for its seamless surveillance of the world. The artists investigative approach is predicated on a critical examination of the historical and cultural conditions of perception.

Gardar Eide Einarsson - Versuchsstation Des Weltuntergangs Sternberg Press 2013 ISBN 9783943365771 Acqn 22489 Hb 22x27cm 230pp 134ills 128col 33.95 Over the past decade Gardar Eide Einarssons exhibition practice has followed a highly consistent thematic trajectory, continuously tracing out what one could call an iconography of resistance. The signs and symbols we can read out of Einarssons works often refer to fundamental conflictual structures between a society of control following September 11, 2001, and the individuals rebellion against and threat to central power. Einarsson also uses historical examples of tragic, abortive attempts to achieve individual freedom, and looks at popular cultures treatment of the myths, signs, and visuality of the outsider ideal as drawn from examples in reality where instances of extreme individualism have resulted in terrorism and crime. This book is published on the occasion of Einarssons solo exhibition Versuchsstation des Weltuntergangs at Bergen Kunsthall, and is the artists first comprehensive monograph. The book contains documentation of a large selection of works since the early 2000s. Three commissioned essays provide various approaches to the reading of Einarssons oeuvre. Bob Nickas situates the reader in a science-fiction-inspired future scenario where a book that turns out to be an exhibition catalogue forms the basis for the attempts of the main characters to penetrate into the artists universe of signs. The philosopher Nick Land outlines a complex interpretative horizon in the encounter with Einarssons precise analyses of the language of power by exploiting and reactivating the vocabulary of post-Minimalist art. And Martin Herbert tackles Einarssons output in the 2000s, and shows how he continually problematizes the residual potential of art as critique and political tool within an art institution that has long since been exposed as a power structure in its own rightby constantly pointing to the contradictory oppositions between power and anti-power, between resistance and repressive tolerance.

Neomaterialism Sternberg Press 2013 ISBN 9783943365085 Acqn 22491 Pb 12x20cm 194pp 14ills 13.95 Since the so-called dematerialization of currencies and art practices in the late 1960s and early 1970, we have witnessed a move into what Joshua Simon calls an economy of neomaterialism. With this, several shifts have occurred: the focus of labor has moved from production to consumption, the commodity has become the historical subject, and symbols now behave like materials. Neomaterialism explores the meaning of the world of commodities, and reintroduces various notions of dialectical materialism into the conversation on the subjectivity and vitalism of things. Here, Simon advocates for the unreadymade, sentimental value, and the promise of the dividual as a means for a vocabulary in this new economy of meaning. Reflecting on general intellect as labor and the subjugation of an overqualified generation to the neofeudal order of debt financewith a particular focus on dispossession and rent economy, post-appropriation display strategies and negation, the barricade and capitals technocratic fascismsNeomaterialism merges traditions of epic communism with the communism that is already here.

Donatien Grau - The Age Of Creation Sternberg Press 2013 ISBN 9783943365337 Acqn 22493 Pb 11x17cm 130pp 12.95 With forewords by Maurizio Cattelan, Douglas Coupland, and Carsten Hller In the last two hundred years, art has become one of the most fetishized concepts in Western civilization. The idea according to which certain peoplealso known as artistswould provide the world with their inner vision is a modern myth, but has proved to be a contemporary reality. Today, this post-Romantic conception is challenged by recent geographical and demographic explosions. Being an artist is often seen as an activity, a position, even a jobcontrary to its first definition at the beginning of the nineteenth century. The Age of Creation analyzes the entrance of art into culture at large. Since so much art now considers itself as cultural production, mystical creation has been turned into a minority paradigm. Creation does not intend to embrace culture, but actually to address it and engage in a conversation between the world and its participants. As such, it paves the way for a perpetual reinvention of human life.
