S'y côtoyaient mappemondes et objets d'ivoire, monnaies antiques et crânes de singe, dents de géant et cornes de licornes, pierres magiques et queues de sirène, sans oublier de fascinants oiseaux de paradis qui passaient leur vie à voler, supposait-on, puisqu'ils n'avaient pas de pattes… C'est à l'étrange destin de ces théâtres du bizarre qu'est consacré le présent ouvrage. On y retrace brièvement l'histoire du phénomène, on en montre les survivances et les transformations au cours des siècles suivants, on y évoque des figures peu connues de collectionneurs et d'amateurs attachés au culte de la curiosité ; on en souligne aussi l'influence sur certains des grands mouvements artistiques du XXe siècle, on en suit quelques-uns des développements dans l'art contemporain ; on considère enfin les motifs et les formes de réinvention du cabinet de curiosités dans des décors et des cadres de vie actuels.

Summary:
What meanings do buildings and places convey to the people who use and visit them? Too often, design competitions and signature architecture result in costly eyesores that do not work. These studies, from those specific to the Wexner Center to those of historical significance, point towards a new method for shaping the visual form of buildings, places, and cities.

Summary:
The author, Gerhard Mack, explores the architecture of each individual museum in detail, and highlights current tendencies in museum building in his seminal essay "Time Rediscovered". This is complemented by an introduction by Harald Szeemann, who as curator of the Kunsthaus in Zürich, was appointed director for Fine Arts at the Biennale in Venice this year. The museums examined in this book are Kunsthaus in Bregenz, the Museum of the Beyeler Fondation near Basel, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, the Getty Center in Los Angeles and the Moderna und Arkitektur Museet in Stockholm all opening within a year of one another. The Tate Gallery of Modern Art which is being built by Herzog & de Meuron in a former power station on the Thames in London is to be completed in May 1999. Conversations with the architects Frank O. Gehry, Jacques Herzog, Richard Meier, Rafael Moneo, Jean Nouvel, Renzo Piano and Peter Zumthor reveal the wide spectrum of design concerns in contemporary museum design and building. In the Pavilion at the Beyeler Fondation, the interaction of nature, light and the presentation of art is an impressive experience. Jean Nouvel perceives the museum as a public place, bringing the various areas of 'urban chaos' into contact with each other. A total of eight projects are presented.
