Editions Sémiose, 2023
Au moyen d’une peinture d’une facture impeccablement lisse, Amélie Bertrand s’éloigne des paysages idéaux inspirés de la nature et forme des décors entre rêves et cauchemars. Ses plans et surfaces sont échafaudés avec complexité et minutie, pour bifurquer dans des perspectives biaisées et des horizons sans profondeur. Toutes sortes de matériaux et motifs typiques de l’époque saturent la composition : OSB, stratifié, grillage, carrelage, molleton, chaîne, feuillage, camouflage. Cette première monographie généreuse de la jeune peintre Amélie Bertrand, fait suite à un numéro du fanzine Pleased to meet you que Semiose éditions lui avait consacré en 2016. Cette fois, le portfolio regroupe les œuvres de 2016 à 2023, des peintures pour la plupart, mais aussi les nombreux projets sur différents supports tels la tapisserie d’Aubusson, les lithographies pour JRP Next, le tram à Nantes, les colonnes.

Valerie Smith
Lund Humphries, 2019
A prolifically creative artistic polymath, American artist Amy Sillman (b. 1955) works in drawing, zines, iPhone videos, installation, collaboration, teaching, and curating, but painting has remained always at the very heart of her practice. This comprehensive monograph covers two decades of production, from the late-1990s to the present. Valerie Smith’s text reveals Sillman’s uniquely time-based approach to painting, influenced and inflected as much by filmmakers and musicians and the processes of her other chosen disciplines as by strictly art-historical forebears. Sillman’s works perform an intensive cognitive and gestural interrogation of her chosen materials: discovering, undoing, and reforming trains of painterly thought, often over long periods of time and across large numbers of linked works. Sillman’s painting emerges as a radically expressive force: a pointedly self-reflexive practice that reformulates contemporary painting as an ever-evolving continuum and never simply a finished work.

Shellburne Thurber
Kehrer Verlag, 2023
For much of her life, American photographer Shellburne Thurber has been engaged in an ongoing photographic investigation of the relationship between constructed space and human energy. Long intrigued by the idea of lived space as an extension of the body and a site for projection, she has photographed a wide va- riety of subjects, beginning with the homes of family and friends who have passed, to generic back road motels, churches, aban- doned and derelict homes and hospitals, as well as commis- sioned projects such as the renovation of the Boston Athenæum and the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site. She is especially interested in spaces that are both public and private. This volume comprises a selection of images Thurber made in 1999 and 2000 of psychoanalysts’ offices in Buenos Aires, Ar- gentina, and the New England area of the United States. From the text Psychoanalytic Interiors by Lia Gangitano: While the subject of psychoanalysis has appeared in the work of many contemporary artists, particularly through the citation of psychoanalytic theory, Thurber takes another route in arriving at one of her most significant bodies of work, a series of square format chromogenic prints depicting the unoccupied office spaces of psychoanalysts. Initiated in 1998 in Buenos Aires, the project continued through a Bunting Fellowship in 1999–2000, enabling her to pursue the project in the Boston area.
