Summary:
Alexandra Leykauf studied audio-visual media and photography, and is based in Berlin. In her work, she appropriates the gender-oriented or feminine cultural gaze via the medium of photography, playing with varying degrees of appropriation in order to reveal the superficiality of images. Leykauf often deconstructs various features of photography and cinema, thereby revealing the complexity inherent to the construction of images. This substantial artist’s book presents numerous of these appropriations and deconstructions, along with critical texts by Dominikus Müller, Jonathan Pouthier, Robert Barry, and Maria Barnas. A conversation with Leykauf completes this in-depth analysis.

Summary:
Y a-t-il une manière féminine de collectionner ? Une collection d'art peut-elle avoir un genre ? Cet ouvrage présente la première synthèse historique consacrée aux femmes collectionneuses d'art et mécènes en Occident depuis la fin du XIXe siècle jusqu'à nos jours. Alternant avec ces mises au point, de multiples portraits singuliers retracent l'itinéraire biographique et esthétique des collectionneuses les plus remarquables : Nélie Jacquemart, Hélène Kröller-Müller, Helena Rubinstein, Marie-laure de Noailles, Peggy Guggenheim ou encore, plus près de nous, Ingvild Goetz ou Dominique de Ménil, en sont quelques exemples. Cette galerie de portraits montre l'extrême diversité des personnalités et des motivations.

Summary:
On a souvent discouru sur leur contenu des activités, sur la manière de bâtir, sur le contexte de leur apparition mais rarement sur la mise en forme de bâtiments. Or ce qui fait la spécificité de cet art de la combinatoire c'est le travail de mise en forme, de conjuguer des éléments hétérogènes bref ce qu'on appelle couramment créer alors que le terme approprié est composer. Dans ce volume, les planches montrent les plans et les tracés de trois bâtiments: Maison Fisher, Louis I. Kahn; Villa Müller, Adolf Loos et Karel Lotha; Projet pour une résiedence à Avignon, François Franque.

Impressive architectural spaces, spaces of atmospheric density, are also, and often to highly suggestive effect, created by hand.

Summary:
Not all architectural renderings are done by straight edge or CAD program; not all spaces are visually related through blueprints. Impressive architectural spaces, spaces of atmospheric density, are also, and often to highly suggestive effect, created by hand. "Hand-Drawn Worlds" presents exemplary architectural drawings by 20 internationally-recognized contemporary architects and artists, among them Ken Adam, Alexander Brodskij, Lee Dunnette, Richard Ferrier, Zaha Hadid, Willem van den Hoed, Steven Holl, Syd Mead, Gottfried Müller, and Michael Sorkin. Flanked by related essays, fantastic rooms of great perfection and unmistakable character rise in more than 140 large-format illustrations. An essay on the history of architectural drawings completes the volume.
