Summary:
La Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine prépare pour l'automne 2019 une « Saison viennoise » autour de deux expositions montées en partenariat avec des institutions renommées de la capitale autrichienne. La première, produite avec le Wien Museum, sera consacrée à Otto Wagner, maître de l'Art nouveau viennois, l'un des principaux architectes européens du tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles. La seconde invite à Paris la prestigieuse collection de dessins d'architecture de l'Albertina, dont une centaine de chefs-d'œuvre seront présentés, dans une exposition intitulée « Trésors de l'Albertina : dessins d'architecture ». La collection des dessins d'architecture L'Albertina doit son nom à son fondateur, le duc Albert de Saxe-Taschen. Passionné d'arts graphiques, il collectionne sans relâche les dessins des grands maîtres. A sa mort en 1822, la collection compte plus de 35 000 items qui permettent d'embrasser les plus grands courants de l'histoire de l'art depuis la fin du Moyen Âge jusqu'au début du XIXe siècle. Ce noyau initial est régulièrement enrichi grâce à l'action de ses successeurs qui opèrent des achats, favorisent les dons ou les legs. L'exposition « Trésors de l'Albertina : dessins d'architecture » présente un florilège de cette incroyable collection.

Summary:
''Pairs'' is a student-led journal at the Harvard GSD dedicated to conversations about design that are down to earth and unguarded. Each issue is conceptualized by an editorial team that proposes guests and objects to be in dialogue with one another. ''Pairs'' is non-thematic, meant instead for provisional thoughts and ideas in progress. Each issue seeks to organize a diversity of threads and concerns that are perceived to be relevant to our moment. Thus, ''Pairs'' creates a space for understanding and a greater degree of exchange, both between the design disciplines and with a larger public. This inaugural issue of ''Pairs'' contains conversations with designers, academics and critics that take on the present from a variety of perspectives. There are reflections on major personal, disciplinary, or political turning points. There are reevaluations of moments in the past that shed light on social questions at the top of our minds. There are also discussions on gardening, book-making, publishing, and the conversation itself.

Summary:
“A terrible mechanism [is] on the march, its gears multiplying.” So begins the 48th issue of Harvard Design Magazine, guest edited by Mark Lee, chair of the department of architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, and Florencia Rodriguez, editorial director of -Ness Magazine. The issue takes as its theme the slippery and ambiguous figure of “America,” seen through the lens of the built and unbuilt environment. Americanization—once the “terrible mechanism” bent on pressing capitalist values on emerging economies everywhere—is now in retreat, eclipsed by the more urgent domestic concerns of pandemic and climate change, racial injustice and domestic radicalization. The very notion of what constitutes America is ripe for redefinition. The America Issue of Harvard Design Magazine, featuring a new design and art direction by Alexis Mark, invites historians, architects, landscape architects, urban designers, theorists, curators, artists, and planners to reflect on the country’s past and present, and to imagine sustainable futures. Projects, taxonomies, dialogues, essays, and spatial interpretations explore possible Americas. They allow us to delve into issues relevant to small cities, towns, and rural areas—as well as major urban centers—and to study barriers and opportunities facing communities across the country.
