Avec l’accélération de la crise climatique, nous vivons une époque à la fois angoissante et stimulante. C’est un moment clé dans l’histoire de la biosphère (c’est-à-dire la partie de la planète où la vie est possible), parce que l’« intelligens » – qu’elle soit humaine, naturelle ou artificielle – n’a encore jamais été aussi vaste, et peut être combinée pour trouver des(...)

Summary:
Avec l’accélération de la crise climatique, nous vivons une époque à la fois angoissante et stimulante. C’est un moment clé dans l’histoire de la biosphère (c’est-à-dire la partie de la planète où la vie est possible), parce que l’« intelligens » – qu’elle soit humaine, naturelle ou artificielle – n’a encore jamais été aussi vaste, et peut être combinée pour trouver des solutions. Les projets du Bureau Bas Smets partent de l’idée d’un « urbanisme biosphérique » : la ville est considérée comme une concaténation de différents microclimats artificiels, avec une topographie, une géographie, une géologie et une météorologie qui leur sont propres. L’étude d’un microclimat naturel comparable peut aider à l’introduction de la végétation dans la variante artificielle. Ce faisant, chaque ville deviendra une seconde nature. Il s’agit d’une constellation de solutions réalisables localement pour résoudre un macroproblème, ce qui est effectivement optimiste.

Summary:
A+ a invité Evelien Pieters comme co-rédactrice en chef de ce numéro consacré aux pratiques parallèles. À la demande du Vlaams Architectuurinstituut, elle a mené avec Bart Tritsmans une étude sur ces pratiques non sollicitées des architectes. La trentaine d’architectes interviewés ont parlé de diverses pratiques parallèles allant de la recherche par le projet aux interventions artistiques, et de l’expérimentation des matériaux aux projets participatifs ou activistes. Pour les architectes, la plus-value de ce type de projet réside dans un enrichissement de leur propre pratique par le biais d’expériences et de réflexions, dans l’innovation et le partage des connaissances au sein du métier, et dans une valeur ajoutée non négligeable pour la société.

Summary:
The direct and indirect influence of politics is making it increasingly clear that exhibitions have an inherent political dimension. This “Exhibition Politics” issue reveals the often conflicting interests that collide in the exhibition space and analyzes how institutions in particular react to an increasingly intense situation with symbolic and real political actions. Its dual focus examines, on the one hand, the visual regimes and mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion that manifest themselves within the exhibition space and, on the other hand, the concrete debates about culture cuts and the question of how aspects of the Israel-Palestine conflict can be addressed in the exhibition space in the wake of October 7th.

À la première seconde de notre vie, instinctivement, il nous faut assurer par l’inspiration et l’expiration la fonction biologique d’être au monde.

Summary:
À la première seconde de notre vie, instinctivement, il nous faut assurer par l’inspiration et l’expiration la fonction biologique d’être au monde. À ses débuts, le souffle a été associé à l’âme, à ce qui donne vie au corps. Il a ouvert la voie à des visions de la vie cosmique et religieuse. Aussi, dès l’antiquité, il a donné lieu à une métaphore : celle du souffle divin et de l’élan créateur. Pourtant, la pensée occidentale a de tout temps privilégié une métaphysique où la perception importe, au détriment de la respiration. Et même si, sur le plan artistique, le souffle comme élément vital a toujours été représenté, c’est principalement depuis Marcel Duchamp que le phénomène de la respiration fait place à des productions artistiques expérimentant diverses expériences sensorielles. Ce numéro rassemble des études de cas qui prennent en considération plusieurs manières de rendre compte du souffle, notamment celles associées aux conditions actuelles de la respiration au sein d’un environnement où l’air est souvent jugé malsain.

Summary:
Welcome to the 60th issue of The Funambulist, which concludes the tenth year of publishing the magazine! On August 6th and 9th, The Funambulist will commemorate the 80th anniversary of the devastating US nuclear bombing of the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Our contribution to the significance of these two massacres consists in convoking Indigenous perspectives from lands that have been exploited for these two bombings. The idea for it came from listening to Glen Sean Coulthard in Dene Country (in what the Canadian settler colony designates as Northwest Territories) about the uranium extracted from his nation’s land to fabricate the atomic bomb and three decades later, the visit of a Dene delegation to Hiroshima to apologize for the role of their labor and land in the nuclear bombing of the city. This understanding of interconnectedness between distant lands and peoples forms the editorial core of this issue.

Summary:
We walk in cities with no postcards, only to collect postcards from home. We close our eyes to move our bodies through dense tourism and rising floods. We drive through the past, holding on to occult rituals to stay rooted. We taste the city on the go, misled by its disguised façades and concealed staircases. We bring home wild plants, only to forget them, and choose to live beside volcanoes despite the risk. We switch off the lights to walk under the stars, and to hear the echoes of suppressed rivers. In this issue, we sense all kinds of flows. Issue 08 will take you to TIRANA – ATHENS – MUSCAT – LISBON – BENIDORM – MADRID – NEW YORK CITY – NAPLES – ISTANBUL – VALLETTA – PARIS – OAXACA – YEREVAN, with a city guide on VENICE.

Summary:
Under the title ‘Community Care’, AV Proyectos 128 features six works that cater to specific needs through an attentive and sensitive architecture that prioritizes a collective approach, as show the centers designed by Mae Architects, Vivas Arquitectos, or Dorte Mandrup. Paz Martín, architect and expert in the field, introduces the dossier with an essay that analyzes how assistance can shape the project strategy. Along the same lines, in an interview with the magazine the architect and professor Izaskun Chinchilla talks about the city of care and how the buildings that compose it are not just hospitals and clinics. In the process section, the complex by Herzog & de Meuron in North Zealand is an example of how to depart from traditional hospital building typologies. The issue also analyzes the high-rise construction boom in Albania, with proposals by MVRDV, Valerio Olgiati, and Bofill Taller de Arquitectura, among other firms.

Summary:
The Mexicans Colectivo C733 have found in the ideas of Eladio Dieste a constant source of inspiration: in their a rational approach to the use of materials, their respect for human effort, and their way of understading the project as a perfectly orchestrated symphony. This philosophy has enabled them to build more than fifty projects across Mexico in just five years, in the context of an ambitious government strategy to improve infrastructures and public spaces in vulnerable contexts. Thanks to a millimetric coordinatoin and a shared view of social innovation and sustainability, C733 has managed to turn each intervention into an example of architecture committed to the environment and the community. This issue features a selection of fifteen projects that reflect the diversity, scale, and impact of their work.
