Summary:
Located at the center of the German furniture manufacturing industry, Marta, the latest European Museum by Frank O. Gehry, opened in December 2004 to universal acclaim. Conceived as a laboratory for redefining the relationship between art, design, and industry, this Gehry masterwork houses art galleries, a library, educational facilities, and conference and cultural meeting rooms. While the gallery is, for Gehry, an uncharacteristic neutral white cube, it is wrapped in a series of bulging curvatures creating a dome that announces his distinctive architectural signature. This book, which contains previously unpublished material on the design and construction of the museum, offers insight into the working process of arguably the world's most famous architect, and his ideas about the shifting boundaries between industry, design, art, and architecture.

Summary:
Architecte visionnaire, grand constructeur urbaniste et dessinateur, philosophe et poète de la théorie architecturale, Claude Nicolas Ledoux domine la scène artistique française de la fin du XVIIIe siècle. Après son extraordinaire réalisation de la Saline royale d'Arc-et-Senans dans le Doubs, il est chargé de la construction des palais de justice et prisons d'Aix-en-Provence, à partir de 1776. Après plusieurs projets d'urbanisme, le chantier connaîtra de multiples contretemps et sera finalement suspendu par la Révolution française. Vingt années plus tard, c'est à l'architecte du département Michel Robert Penchaud que reviendra la tâche délicate de " poursuivre " la construction des deux édifices, sur la base des fondations de Ledoux. Plus récemment encore un concours d'architecture sera lancé pour l'extension de la Cour d'Appel dans l'enceinte de la prison, conservée au nom de cet héritage symbolique. De l'architecture des Lumières à la typologie judiciaire contemporaine, en passant par l'historicisme fonctionnaliste du XIXe siècle Sur les traces de Ledoux raconte avec la saveur d'un roman historique l'entrelacement, durant deux siècles, des luttes d'influences et des enjeux symboliques qui accompagnent l'élaboration de toute architecture porteuse de sens et de pouvoir.
