As social, locative, and mobile media render the intimate public and the public intimate, this volume interrogates how this phenomenon impacts art practice and politics. Contributors bring together the worlds of art and media culture to rethink their intersections in light of participatory social media. By focusing upon the Asia-Pacific region, they seek to examine how regionalism and locality affect global circuits of culture. The book also offers a set of theoretical frameworks and methodological paradigms for thinking about contemporary art practice more generally.

Magical images that defy time from the grand master of conceptual photography. Through his expansive exploration of the possibilities of still images, the internationally renowned artist and photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto has created some of the most alluringly enigmatic photographs of our time; pictures that are meticulously crafted and deeply thought-provoking, familiar yet tantalisingly ambiguous. Hiroshi Sugimoto: Time Machine is a comprehensive survey of work produced over the past five decades, featuring selections from all of Sugimoto’s major photographic series, as well as lesser-known works that illuminate his innovative, conceptually-driven approach to making pictures. Texts by a collection of international writers, artists and scholars - including Geoffrey Batchen, Edmund de Waal, Mami Kataoka, Ralph Rugoff, Lara Strongman and Margaret Wertheim - will highlight his work’s philosophical yet playful inquiry into the nature of representation and art, our understanding of time and memory, and the paradoxical character of photography as a medium suited to both documenting and invention.
On the occasion of its 60-year anniversary, CIMAM, the International Committee for Museums and Collections of Modern Art, its directors, and curators publish Museums from the Inside. From Suzanne Page and Rudi Fuchs, to David Elliott, Toshio Hara, Maria de Corral, Ken Lum to Manolo Borja-Villel and Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, this publication contains more than twenty interviews giving an insider's look at the 60 years in which modern art changed to post-modern art, and the term contemporary art, in turn, began to look almost obsolete. Following a historical introduction, looking back at fierce debates and controversies, a selection of important texts written since 2005 on decolonization, on Arte Util, and on indigenous art gives insight into more recent fields of research. Texts by: Tuula Arkio, Zdenka Badovinac, Manuel J. Borja-Villel, Saskia Bos, Tania Bruguera, Maria de Corral, David Elliott, Wesley Enoch, Patrick Flores, Rudi Fuchs, Marc and Josee Gensollen, Olle Granath, Toshio Hara, Geeta Kapur, Marysia Lewandowska, Ken Lum, Elizabeth Ann Macgregor, Bartomeu Mari, Ngahiraka Mason, Ivo Mesquita, Walter Mignolo, Ahmet OEgut, Alfred Pacquement, Suzanne Page, Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, Margit Rowell, Rana Sadik, Donna de Salvo, Patricia Sloane, Slavs and Tatars, Hilke Wagner, Joan Weinstein.
