Book Description
This book addresses theatre’s contribution to the way we think about ecology, our relationship to the environment, and what it means to be human in the context of climate change. It offers a detailed study of the ways in which contemporary performance has critiqued and re-imagined everyday ecological relationships, in more just and equitable ways. The broad spectrum of ecologically-oriented theatre and performance included here, largely from the UK, US, Canada, Europe, and Mexico, have problematised, reframed, and upended the pervasive and reductive images of climate change that tend to dominate the ecological imagination. Taking an inclusive approach this book foregrounds marginalised perspectives and the multiple social and political forces that shape climate change and related ecological crises, framing understandings of the earth as home. Recent works by Fevered Sleep, Rimini Protokoll, Violeta Luna, Deke Weaver, Metis Arts, Lucy + Jorge Orta, as well as Indigenous activist movements such as NoDAPL and Idle No More, are described in detail.

Book Description
Current fashion is a complex phenomenon. In a constant state of constant flux, contemporary fashion combines a mix of the different cultural aspects that inform the modern individual. Atlas of Fashion Designers is born out of this proposition, and features a compilation of the most important fashion designers and their work in the past five years, selected from a multi-disciplinary perspective that display the heterogeneous mix of today’s fashion world. Featured designers all have one trait in common: they were singled out, not only for the quality of their work, but also because they illustrate different perspectives in their approach to fashion. This book includes designers with a wide array of visions, from classical haute couture to those who experiment with developing fields such as anthropology, new textiles, high technology, architecture, art, or recycling. From Ricardo Tiscci, Nicholas Ghesquière to Sybilla, to artists who are primarily concerned with pure fashion such as Lucy Orta, or to those investigators who concern themselves with innovation in the fields of textile research and technology, such as Issey Miyake or Hussein Chalayan. Atlas of Fashion Designers is a very relevant and useful reference in a hybrid society, which is composed of ever increasing heterogeneous elements. By offering a synthetic, fluid and diverse approach to the subject, the “Atlas� draws a map of the complex world of fashion at present time, and looks forward to what it may be tomorrow.

Book Description
Jorge + Lucy Orta Pattern Book: An Introduction to Collaborative Practices presents projects by renowned artists Jorge and Lucy Orta. Their art melds fashion, architecture, design with social activism, reflecting how Jorge and Lucy operate not only as artists, but as campaigners, community mediators and educators. Jorge and Lucy address concerns which are both contemporary and topical -- community and social inclusion, dwellings and mobility, recycling and sustainable development -- but which also tap into primordial traditions and cultures, such as nomadism. Internationally acclaimed, their work has been exhibited worldwide including at the Louvre Museum, Paris; Deitch Projects, New York; PS1, New York; Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney; Hayward Gallery, London; Secession, Vienna; Museum of Contemporary Art, Tokyo; Pitti Imagine, Florence; Design Academy, Eindhoven. This book presents six of their latest projects co-produced with community groups in diverse locations from Australia to South Africa, from grand metropolis such as New York to deprived industrial towns such as Thiers (France). Jorge + Lucy Orta Pattern Book: An Introduction to Collaborative Practices is also a practical tool the reader can use to set up their own workshops and education programmes, and includes detachable pattern sheets for the reader to use to create their own projects. This beautifully illustrated book will captivate a diverse audience of artists, fashion designers, engineers, architects, community workers, and teachers.

Book Description
The book focuses on the work of young, cutting-edge designers such as CP Company, Maharishi, Samsonite, Simon Thorogood, Kosuke Tsumura, Vexed Generation, and the artist Lucy Orta. All of these designers use fashion to address the problems and possibilities of increasingly alien and polluted urban spaces- supermarkets, airports, motorways and the street. Their designs have embraced new materials and technologies previously at the margins of fashion, to create items such as the bullet and slash proof coat and high performance, multi-functional items of sportswear, which provide protection and redefine our personal space as being comfortable, practical and secure. With its specially commissioned photography, stylish layout and lively commentary, this is a book that will appeal to all lovers of radical ideas and innovation.
