Summary:
This special double issue extensively features both built and unbuilt work by Álvaro Siza. The Portuguese architect has developed a large number of projects, and the relationship between the realised and the concept is central to this examination of his career. Being equally attentive to the architect’s built and unbuilt works allows a global understanding of the plurality of situations that are found in his oeuvre to emerge. The first volume features finished works like the Nadir Afonso Museum, 611 West 56th Street in New York, and the Mimesis Museum, while the second volume of numerous unbuilt works includes sketches, drawings, and plans, as well as in-depth analysis.

Au cours des années 1920, la photographie est devenue une « arme dans la lutte des classes », selon l’expression consacrée dans les milieux communistes.

Summary:
Au cours des années 1920, la photographie est devenue une « arme dans la lutte des classes », selon l’expression consacrée dans les milieux communistes. C’est en effet à ce moment que les travailleurs se saisirent d’appareils photographiques dans le but de documenter leur quotidien, leur travail et leurs loisirs, plus singulièrement leur engagement dans le mouvement social. Cette nouvelle méthode d’agit-prop, consistant à déléguer aux ouvriers les moyens de production visuels, s’est étendue à différents pays – l’Allemagne et l’URSS en premier lieu, mais aussi la Tchécoslovaquie, la France, les États-Unis, etc. Dix ans après l’exposition tenue à Madrid, « A Hard and Merciless Light », et un an après l’exposition du Centre Pompidou « Photographie, arme de classe », ce numéro 4 de Transbordeur rend compte de l’actualité foisonnante de la recherche sur la photographie ouvrière en étendant le sujet tant sur le plan géographique que chronologique.

Summary:
“The center of architecture is shifting and cannot hold,” writes guest editor Bryony Roberts in Log 48: Expanding Modes of Practice. This moment of change, in which issues of inequity and intersectionality are coming to the fore, represents “an invitation to think differently, a chance to reask the questions that haunted the 20th century.” The collected authors in this issue range from architects and urbanists to curators and composers who grapple with what it means to practice in a more just way, balancing aesthetics with ethics. As Roberts writes, “What emerges from [these] experiments with situated, intersectional practice is the merging of the professional and the personal. Rather than neutrality, practices cultivate empathy.” At the heart of this issue are Roberts’s interviews with progressive practices Assemble, Borderless Studio, HECTOR, LA-Más, and Mabel O. Wilson. In addition, essayists Peggy Deamer and Michael Kubo discuss collaborative architecture practices today and in the past; Ana Miljacki and Jerome Haferd propose better pedagogies; and Jia Yi Gu, Deborah Garcia, and the feminist architecture collaborative position feminist theory in architectural practice and discourse today, and Cynthia Davidson talks with Mirko Zardini about the role of the museum today.
