Summary:
The archives of the 1980s: 23 archives involved, 106 archival documents found, 6 original interviews, 1 horoscope from Gilardi's Phototeca in a poster size. Every person is a memory. Memory which may be conjured up by joining the dots between what the subject has experienced over the years, starting from a personal history—which allows for a certain clinical-narrative accuracy—only to then go on to delve into the collective sphere, investigating and recounting private and institutional archives that accompany us through the presentation of the facts. Home to the facts are the eras: that's why over the following issues Archivio will identify four decade-long containers. This issue continues Archivio's journey back through the twentieth century, stopping this time on the fluorescently outgoing, yet such intimate years of the 1980s—so close and yetso far. Because "a day is a year is a lifetime", as the R.W. Fassbinder's biography italian title says.

This instalment focuses on two British practices: Jonathan Woolf and Sergison Bates. Editor Ana Leal uses the word “serendipity” to refer to their respective bodies of work, describing how “the reinterpretation of the site, to acknowledge the culture and tradition of the place through local materials and techniques, is a clear example of an answer to contemporary needs… dictated by an extraordinary sensitivity.” Along with the highlighted projects it includes a conversation with Jonathan Sergison, Stephen Bates, and Tony Fretton.

Summary:
An architecture biennale can be more than a place to simply represent and celebrate the status quo in architectural production.

Summary:
An architecture biennale can be more than a place to simply represent and celebrate the status quo in architectural production. Exhibitions are increasingly becoming a place for researching and producing an experimental and critical architectural practice: a place not for the presentation of finished products, but for the production of content. This calls into question the supposed boundary between architecture and exhibition. Inquiry becomes a form of display. Christian Kerez’s Incidental Space, exhibited in the Swiss Pavilion at the 2016 Architecture Biennale in Venice, attempts to inquire into the outer limits of what can be achieved in architecture today—in terms of both technical feasibility and the limits of our own imagination. How can you use the medium of architecture to contemplate an architectural space that is entirely abstract and as complex as possible? How could this kind of imaginary space even be visualized, and how could it be produced? Conceived in close collaboration with Sandra Oehy, the curator of the Swiss Pavilion, and Christian Kerez, the Swiss Pavilion architect, this issue of ARCH+ delves into the questions posed by Kerez’s “speculative space.” Contributors like Philip Ursprung, Mario Carpo, Armen Avanessian, and Timothy Morton consider how the object stands in relation to the subject in a world where the capacity for technological and digital reproduction increasingly renders the distinction between depiction and reality moot. Where is the space for architectural autonomy in this? How can we “Release Architecture”? A report from architecture’s speculative front.

Summary:
This eighth issue of The Funambulist Magazine, dedicated to the police, can be read in continuity with Issue 04 (March-April 2016), which was focused on carceral environments. Its axiomatic editorial line is resolutely the same: just as there cannot be “better prisons,” there cannot be “better police,” at least not within the logics through which they are currently operating in a majority of the world’s societies. In this regard, the numerous murders of Native and Black bodies by the United States police, the violence of the Apartheid police in Jerusalem against Palestinians, the murderous operations of the Brazilian military police in the favelas, or the legalized abuse of power by the French and Turkish police during ongoing states of emergency; not as “police brutality” that would require reforms but, rather, as the very essence of policing itself, which calls for abolition.
