Sticky Pictures examines and celebrates the evolving work of Montreal-based artist Janet Werner. In her paintings, Werner builds a constellation of spatial and figurative explorations drawn from fashion magazines and art history to create collage-like composite figures that slip easily between articulations of beauty, gender, psychology and emotion. Werner's painterly operations are both unsettling and seductive, revealing the conditions of perception and looking as passageways to understanding the intensity of the world at hand. Werner's unique combination of abstraction, fictional portraiture, and the rich history of painting are explored in Sticky Pictures through texts by art and media historians, as well as an interview with the artist.Janet Werner’s work has been featured in international solo exhibitions from New York to Los Angeles and as far away as Cape Town. Her work was included in the Prague Biennale in 2003 and is featured in the collections of the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, Musée d’art contemporain in Montreal, The Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto, Winnipeg Art Gallery, the Canadian Embassy in Berlin, the University of Lethbridge, Owens Art Gallery in Sackville, the Mendel Art Gallery in Saskatoon, Dunlop Art Gallery in Regina, McEvoy Foundation for the Arts in San Francisco, and numerous private and corporate collections. Werner lives and works in Montreal.

El 27 de octubre de 2010 el Centre Georges Pompidou de París invitó al ingeniero agrícola Gilles Clément, el botánico y biólogo Francis Hallé y el ingeniero agrónomo François Letourneux a un encuentro sobre la dinámica del mestizaje planetario. En él, estos tres grandes nombres de la botánica actual celebraron un fascinante, erudito y provocador debate en torno a las especies vagabundas: ¿Cuáles son estas plantas y estos animales que llamamos "vagabundos"? ¿Hay que controlarlos? ¿Se trata de un mecanismo más de la evolución?Este libro recoge las intervenciones en el encuentro, revisadas y enriquecidas por sus autores

Rafael Lozano-Hemmer’s installations engage the audience in unique and seductive ways—measuring their heart rate, surveilling their faces, even circulating their breath. Often characterised by particular interactions between the work and the viewer, Lozano-Hemmer’s art explores themes such as forced cohabitations, power imbalances, and contemporary techniques of surveillance and control. This mid-career retrospective book focuses on works produced over the past two decades. It includes essays that explore the poetic and political dimensions of the artist’s work, along with in-depth examinations of four major works—Zoom Pavilion, Vicious Circular Breathing, Voz Alta, and Pulse Room. It also features full-colour illustrations of sixteen recent works, including a newly created immersive sound environment, Sphere Packing: Bach. An essential guide to a deeper understanding of the themes that connect these technically sophisticated and emotionally resonant works, this book draws on the idea of an “unstable presence” to communicate the humanity and the anxiety that lie at the centre of Lozano-Hemmer’s art.
