Through drawings, diagrams, photographs and essays this part-monograph part-manifesto explores the ideas that drive Faustino’s architectural and artistic works: the political and ethical conditions for constructing sites and spaces within the socio-cultural layout of the city, and in particular how to critically approach the problem of the body in both private and public space. At the same time, the book revisits Faustino’s projects – from sculptures and installations, to public art, architectures and books – up to his most recent work, offering new insight into the architect’s perspective.

He was raised in humble circumstances, but enjoyed an excellent education. Beginning in the mid-1920s, after the turmoil that followed the war, revolution and civil war, his career soared at almost meteoric speed as he took the lead in the young Soviet architecture movement with completely autonomous, highly artistic buildings that were free from dogmatism of any kind.

Although his best-known project was the World Trade Center in New York City, Japanese American architect Minoru Yamasaki (1912-1986) worked to create moments of surprise, serenity, and delight in distinctive buildings around the world. In his adopted home of Detroit, where he lived and worked for the last half of his life, Yamasaki produced many important designs that range from public buildings to offices and private residences. In Yamasaki in Detroit: A Search for Serenity, author John Gallagher presents both a biography of Yamasaki-or Yama as he was known-and an examination of his working practices, with an emphasis on the architect's search for a style that would express his artistic goals.

Il y revient en 1938 et en 1939. Impressionné par l’ingéniosité et le charme de la villa il passe des moments agréables face à la mer et mène une vie tranquille et simple, au contact de la nature.Alors que la peinture murale est en complète contradiction avec sa définition de l’architecture comme « pur jeu de lumière et de volumes », Le Corbusier va réaliser sur ce site divers muraux, tant dans la villa d’Eileen Gray que sur les murs de L’Étoile de mer et sur les parois de son Cabanon. L’auteur revient sur les différents facteurs ayant conduit à cette conversion et replace cette évolution de l’architecte dans le contexte plus général de la peinture murale à cette période. Cet ouvrage documente, pour la première fois, l’ensemble de cet œuvre peint et dessiné, toujours existant pour la majeure partie, et donne également à voir un Le Corbusier plus libre et véritable amoureux de la Méditerranée.
