Hardback. Condizione: New. In the context of the World Economic Forum (WEF), an absurd practice has emerged in Davos over the last few years: for the short time of the event, the main street is almost entirely rebuilt. Thus, a pop-up industry has grown up that generates an enormous short-term demand for reusable spaces, blank walls and empty rooms. The street scene of the alpine city is altered in favor of the self-representation of companies, corporations and organizations. The existing infrastructure is transformed, at horrendous prices, into a space of communication for the respective agenda.In his most recent series Davos Is a Verb, the Swiss photo artist Jules Spinatsch focuses on something that is typical of events around the world: the temporary appropriation of local spaces and infrastructures by major international corporations. In view of the debates over the WEF's future, this photobook gains its relevance and presents itself as a contemporary witness of the WEF in Davos. By using photo-essayistic, conceptual and investigative artistic strategies, Spinatsch documents the aesthetics and actions of the financial, technological and new media industries as well as the various political agents. The British ecological economist Tim Jackson, known for his critical attitude towards growth, comments on the hegemonic practices in Davos and the world in an extensive essay.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A photographic account of an Alpine town's extreme servitude to the World Economic Forum. Every January, for four days, a small town in the Swiss Alps is transformed into a Potemkin village. The World Economic Forum brings heads of state, politicians and activists to Davos, followed by global corporations who use the venue for international appearances, informal receptions and lobbying. The short-term demand for free, playable rooms, space and accommodation has far-reaching consequences: shops and apartments are vacant for most of the year in order to be rented out for horrendous sums during the event. In 2020, Facebook erected a temporary two-story pavilion, while at the same time a bookstore disappeared completely from the main street. Davos Is a Verb is the photographic documentation of this madness. Photographer Jules Spinatsch (born 1964) makes Davos visible as a fleeting world in which public space is reinterpreted and everything is in flux. AUTHOR: Jules Spinatsch (born 1964 in Davos) briefl y studied sociology in Zurich, then photography at the International Center of Photography ICP in New York. Since 2000, he has been working mainly on his own projects, which are published as monographs and shown as exhibitions, e.g. at the MoMA (NY) and the Tate Modern. In 2019 the comprehensive publication of the solo exhibition Semiautomatic Photography 20012020 at the Centre de la Photographie Geneve was published. Temporary Discomfort won the prize for the best photography book in Arles in 2005. SELLING POINT: . Mind-blowing photos show how a tiny Swiss mountain town completely transforms itself into a showroom for capitalism over the four days of the World Economic Forum. Hundred-years-old shops transform into LED advertisements for corporations, earning a years worth of income in just days. These photographs show the rapid transformation and impact of this global descent on the town of Davos. 190 images During the WEF, Davos becomes a modern Potemkin village.The photo artist Jules Spinatsch grew up in Davos and documents the paradoxical transformation of the city during the WEF.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Since the last financial crisis, a new practice has emerged in Davos: During to the World Economic Forum WEF, the main street is being temporarily rebuilt almost throughout. Freestanding pavilions are being constructed for events organized by companies, corporations and organizations, wall-filling banners are changing the Street scene, and business premises are being converted into communication spaces for the realization of the respective agenda - at horrendous rents.In his new work, Jules Spinatsch applies strategies of photo essays, concept photography and investigative journalism. Davos Is a Verb shows the aesthetics and behavior of the financial, technology and new media industries as well as politics: in shops, bars, clubs, hotels and even in museums and churches, where roundtable discussions, press conferences, but also parties and esoteric sessions take place. In this way, a parallel world beyond the official WEF zones becomes visible, where WEF participants, lobbyists, locals and tourists meet. Spinatsch also looks at vacant business premises, which are often only rented out during these few days. He sheds light on a practice that changes Davos not only in January, but permanently - whether out of greed, need, or a supposed lack of alternatives. Simultaneously insider and outsider, and with ironic distance, Spinatsch introduces us to this practice of disruptive pop-ups and puts it up for discussion.; Seit der letzten Finanzkrise ist in Davos eine neue Praxis entstanden: Parallel zum Weltwirtschaftsforum WEF wird die Hauptstrasse fast durchgehend temporär umgebaut. Für Veranstaltungen von Firmen, Konzernen und Organisationen entstehen freistehende Pavillons, wandfüllende Transparente verändern das Strassenbild und existierende Geschäftslokale werden zu Kommunikationsräumen für die Verwirklichung der jeweiligen Agenda umgestaltet - zu horrenden Mietpreisen.Jules Spinatsch wendet in seiner neuen Arbeit Strategien des Fotoessays, der Konzeptfotografie und des Investigativjournalismus an. Davos Is a Verb zeigt die Ästhetik und das Verhalten der Finanz-, Technologie- und New-Media-Industrie sowie der Politik: In Geschäftslokalen, Bars, Clubs, Hotels und sogar in Museen und Kirchen, wo Gesprächsrunden, Pressekonferenzen, aber auch esoterische Sessions und Partys stattfinden. So wird eine Parallelwelt jenseits der abgesperrten, offiziellen WEF-Zonen sichtbar, wo sich neben WEF-Teilnehmern und Lobbyisten auch Einheimische und Touristen treffen. Spinatsch richtet seinen Blick auch auf leerstehende Geschäftslokale, die oft nur noch während diesen wenigen Tagen vermietet werden. Er beleuchtet eine Praxis, die Davos nicht nur im Januar, sondern permanent verändert - ob aus Gier, Not oder vermeintlicher Alternativlosigkeit entstanden. Zugleich In- wie Outsider und mit ironischer Distanz führt uns Spinatsch diese Praxis der disruptiven Pop Ups vor und stellt sie zur Disposition.…
