Book Description
The poet and artist Marcel Broodthaers (1924-76) is widely recognized as a key figure in 20th century art who questioned the nature of art, the role of the artist, the functioning of the museum and of the art market. This book sets out Broodthaers's strategy for artistic success and examines the dialogue into which he entered with his contemporaries and predecessors in 19th century French poetry, Pop and Conceptual Art, including Stéphane Mallarmé, Charles Baudelaire, Marcel Duchamp and René Magritte. It provides a broad overview of his objects, paintings, films, slides, books and installations, and his focus upon relationships, also central to Post-Structuralist and postmodern theories. The visual qualities of his works, combining the material with the poetic, his wit and irony, are examined in relation to his subtle method of questioning and contradicting, defying conventional systems and definitions. The author explores the wider framing contexts in which things are presented and the geographical context via maps, notions of the voyage and a sense of place. Institutional critique, the artist's political position and moral responsibilities in society are discussed by analyzing the responses of Broodthaers, Daniel Buren, Joseph Beuys and Hans Haacke to a series of museum events in the early 1970s.

La conquête de l'espace
Author: Marcel Broodthaers
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781633450110
Category : Artists' books
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Measuring just 2.5 x 4 cm with a simple black slipcase, The Conquest of Space. Atlas for the Use of Artists and the Military is an artist's book by Marcel Broodthaers originally published in 1975 in an edition of fifty numbered copies. As Broodthaers's last book, created shortly before his death in 1976, it embodies the artist's sardonic sense of humor with its plays on language and function - the title references the historic use of atlases by militaries for territorial conquests, but printed at such a miniature scale, it is unusable for its intended function. Furthering the level of intrigue with the book, Broodthaers did not follow established geographical organization, choosing rather to present only a small selection of countries organized in alphabetical order and graphically represented in identical size. This facsimile edition, published by The Museum of Modern Art, makes the artist's book available again for the first time since the original printing in 1975 in a limited edition of 500 copies.

Space Law
Author: Thomas Leclerc
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1394264682
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 388
Book Description
Outer space is subject to a legal framework; there is a set of rules specifically dedicated to outer space and to the activities carried out there. These rules have developed since 1957, the year the first artificial satellite was launched. Major changes have also affected the technology used and the actors involved, as well as the domains concerned by the exploration and use of outer space. Space Law will lay out the progressive densification of the legal framework that is applicable to outer space and the activities that are carried out there. Without claiming to be exhaustive, the aim of this book is to present the main primary sources of space law, its main principles, the diversity of its fields of application and the challenges and issues that the development of space activities inevitably raises.

Stamping the Earth from Space
Author: Renato Dicati
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319207563
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 446
Book Description
This unique book presents a historical and philatelic survey of Earth exploration from space. It covers all areas of research in which artificial satellites have contributed in designing a new image of our planet and its environment: the atmosphere and ionosphere, the magnetic field, radiation belts and the magnetosphere, weather, remote sensing, mapping of the surface, observation of the oceans and marine environments, geodesy, and the study of life and ecological systems. Stamping the Earth from Space presents the results obtained with the thousands of satellites launched by the two former superpowers, the Soviet Union and the United States, and also those of the many missions carried out by the ESA, individual European countries, Japan, China, India, and the many emerging space nations. Beautifully illustrated, it contains almost 1100 color reproductions of philatelic items. In addition to topical stamps and thematic postal documents, the book provides an extensive review of astrophilatelic items. The most important space missions are documented through event covers and cards canceled at launch sites, tracking stations, research laboratories, and mission control facilities.

Systèmes dynamiques discrets non réguliers déterministes ou stochastiques : applications aux modèles avec frottement ou impact
Author: BASTIEN Jérôme
Publisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 2746289083
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
Cet ouvrage présente différents modèles discrets en dynamique pour la modélisation de phénomènes mécaniques non linéaires liés au frottement ou à l’impact. Les sollicitations sont exposées dans un cadre déterministe et stochastique. Pour ce dernier, le cas de variétés de configuration euclidienne ou riemannienne est abordé. La difficulté réside dans le type d’équations différentielles non linéaires particulières utilisées. Le cadre théorique ainsi que des schémas numériques sont détaillés pour chaque équation. Trois types de problèmes sont d’abord étudiés dans le cas particulier d’un solide à un degré de liberté : la force de frottement, la loi d’impact en déterministe et le frottement dans un cadre stochastique. Ensuite, de nombreux exemples sont commentés et fournissent, dans un cadre théorique ou applicatif, de nombreux modèles accompagnés de leurs schémas numériques. Des rappels théoriques fondamentaux sont proposés ainsi que deux preuves complètes de convergence de schémas numériques dans le cas du frottement déterministe ou stochastique.
