In the spheres of culture, journalism, and politics, urgent desires for better understanding are often met with offers of dialogue. But as Western societies have become increasingly polarized, such reciprocal engagement has lost some of its constructive potential.

Summary:
In the spheres of culture, journalism, and politics, urgent desires for better understanding are often met with offers of dialogue. But as Western societies have become increasingly polarized, such reciprocal engagement has lost some of its constructive potential. This is why ''TEXTE ZUR KUNST'' has dedicated its new issue, “Lecture,” to an investigation of the possibilities that the monological format opens up. The contributions to the issue demonstrate how the lecture’s inherently authoritarian interpellation can be repurposed for a critique of power and for subversive ends, highlighting, in particular, the lecture performance as a potent intervention into established hierarchies and regimes of knowledge. In a practical extension of these discussions, six artists and scholars reflect on the approaches, structures, rhetorics, and methodologies of their presentations in video lectures produced for the issue.

Summary:
Walter Pichler foresaw the future nearly 60 years ago. His “TV-Helmet (Portable Living Room)” anticipated technologies akin to today’s cyber glasses. At the time, this vision was nothing short of revolutionary. Today, such concepts are not only a reality but have advanced significantly. Virtual and digital realities are now integral to designing, planning, and constructing spaces – far more than mere devices for experiencing them. Lengthy construction workflows, optimised designs, and the complex coordination of planning, cost control, and project management are increasingly digitalised. We can now program buildings to meet parametric specifications, construct homes using 3D printing, and create detailed 3D models of existing buildings to analyse them before renovation even begins. While landscape has transformed dramatically, digitalisation in architecture is clearly still in its early stages. To begin the year, this issue shines a spotlight on the digital present and future of architecture, exploring how digital tools can enhance sustainability. Our project documentations showcase an array of approaches, from digital material passports to parametric models and BIM applications for existing structures. Experts offer insight on the complexities of planning and construction processes.

Summary:
In the Fall Winter 24-25 issue which closes the fifteenth anniversary celebration of ''Cura', ''Coming of Age'' is a plural and multifaceted story of growth, discovery, affirmation, defeat and corruption, that recounts the ambiguities of the present time, the sense of loss of illusions, trapped in a reality in front of which one is both an adult and a child, corrupt and innocent, cynical and curious. A limbo between hope and reality places events in which we witness a whole that unfolds at once inside and outside of us. Propelled into such ambiguity—neither past nor future—we are overwhelmed by a flow of things and events, a changing and metamorphic landscape, which translates the upheavals of a new awareness and a new age.

Incontournable événement sportif, les Jeux olympiques organisés en 2024 à Paris sont l’occasion de s’interroger sur les liens entre le sport et la culture, et plus particulièrement sur la place que le sport occupe dans notre patrimoine culturel. Tirant ses racines des jeux antiques, la pratique sportive est porteuse de dynamiques identitaires, communautaires, territoriales fortes qui accompagnent l’histoire des sociétés. Inscrit dans la vie économique locale et source de développement, le sport transforme également les paysages urbains et naturels. Quel est la nature de l’objet sportif? De quelle manière le monde du patrimoine entretient-il et transmet-il l’héritage du sport? Archives, collections muséales, collections privées d’amateurs ou d’ancien professionnels, équipements sportifs et œuvres architecturales, pratiques traditionnelles : le patrimoine sportif recouvre des statuts et des typologies variées.

Summary:
Urbanism is inherently conflict-driven, as Eve Blau points out in an interview in this issue of ‘MONU’. According to her, because cities are places of power, representation, and contestation, processes of urbanisation involve a certain amount of violence and destruction, which is both positive and negative. Various authors and perspectives go on to explore this notion in depth. Topics range from the Syrian refugee crisis, where people reshape their places and identities while navigating the complex structures of belonging, to sprawl and emptiness as a chief tool of protection in Australian capital cities and how the youth of Kyiv are returning to life as usual the Ukrainian capital.
