Summary:
Catalogue of the exhibition presenting the work of American architects Platform for Architecture + Research / PAR, founded by Jennifer Marmon in Los Angeles in 2003. Questioning the role and limits of architecture today, Marmon, together with her collective team, are part of a new generation of architects exploring universal topics as a means to expand their discipline in new ways. With its idea of a network of ‘relations’, the exhibition reflects the essential architectural elements that influence the office’s award winning work that aims to establish a dialogue with people as well as the urban fabric. The exhibition presents buildings, competition entries and urban studies that range in scale from small houses to museum concepts e.g. the Wilshire Tower in Los Angeles/US, the Taichung Cultural Center in Taichung/Taiwan, the Guggenheim Museum in Helsinki/Finland and the Lima Art Museum in Lima/Peru.

Summary:
This issue presents a critique of the normative violence of gender in the specific context of indoor architectures. It engages a dialogue between trans perspectives on public bathrooms or the capitalist workplace, the demagogic blindspot of femonationalism when violence against women is deployed in domestic spaces, the clandestine alternatives to white “gayborhoods” for queer Arabs in France, the impossibility for young Hong Kong lesbians or, to an even higher degree, female migrant domestic workers to access “a room of one’s own”, the violence of the norm in the design of all rooms and furniture, or the far-from-neutral space of the coming out. The non-topical part of the issue also presents articles on the demilitarization struggle in Hawai’i, the Moroccan political movement of the Hirak in the Rif, and life as a Dane of color in stigmatized and gentrifying neighborhoods.

Il s’agit pour elle de montrer le danger qu’il y a à confier à l’État le soin de définir le champ du dicible et de l’indicible. Dans un dialogue critique avec J. L. Austin, le fondateur de la théorie du discours performatif, mais aussi avec Sigmund Freud, Michel Foucault, Pierre Bourdieu, Jacques Derrida et Catharine MacKinnon, elle s’efforce d’établir l’ambivalence de la violence verbale (du hate speech) et des discours homophobes, sexistes ou racistes : s’ils peuvent briser les personnes auxquelles ils sont adressés, ils peuvent aussi être retournés et ouvrir l’espace d’une lutte politique et d’une subversion des identités.

Summary:
Both a learning platform and a pedagogical experiment, Urban School Ruhr is built upon the foundational belief that experts and amateurs can, together, build a space of critical exchange and knowledge transfer. USR prioritises exchange and dialogue that is not necessarily attached to specific outcomes, results or interventions in built reality, instead understanding conversation as the first step to co-producing cities. "Explorations in Urban Practice", the first edition in the Urban School Ruhr Series, draws from and reflects upon USR’s experiences to date whilst also looking to the future of urban practice in contemporary cities. The book presents the reader with key current questions in the field: how can we learn city making? How should we understand the political concept of commoning for this purpose? And how can we discuss intervention as a strategy for enacting urban change?

Thomas, a museum curator, delves deeply into the rich design history of the Netherlands, beginning with the historical roots of Dutch crafts education and the moral and social ideals of modernism that became central to the nation’s cultural dialogue. Touching upon such issues as the emergence of the professional industrial designer, public work initiatives, debates about design as art, and the provocative notion of “anti-design,” Thomas argues that though Dutch design from the beginning has been driven by aims of functionality, simplicity, and affordability, it has also embraced luxury and exclusivity. The book also discusses the role played by leading Dutch designers and their works, including Wim Crouwel, Marcel Wanders, and the design collective Droog Design. An unprecedented, detailed history, Dutch Design Culture is a critical primer on one of the leading national design movements today.

Le sens donné au terme « récit » diffère toutefois beaucoup selon les traditions disciplinaires ou tout simplement les sensibilités des auteurs, rendant souvent difficile la mise en dialogue des contributions recensées sous ce vocable. Plus qu’un exercice de clarification terminologique, cet ouvrage propose une cartographie de l’extraordinaire extension prise par le récit en aménagement et urbanisme. Selon que l’on mobilise des récits pour faire parler, pour transformer, pour comprendre ou rendre sensible, c’est une manière cohérente d’approcher les savoirs et pratiques à l’origine des formes de l’espace. Le récit apparaît, dans son effervescence, comme un temps d’utopie joyeuse, fait d’emprunts (aux autres disciplines ou arts), de revisitations (de problématisations anciennes), d’expérimentations (de méthodes) et de contestations (des modes certifiés de connaissance).

Summary:
Brazil is a country of extreme inequalities, one of the most important of which is the acute concentration of rural land ownership. In recent decades, however, poor landless workers have mounted a major challenge to this state of affairs. A broad grassroots social movement led by the Movement of Landless Rural Workers (MST) has mobilized hundreds of thousands of families to pressure authorities for land reform through mass protest. This book explores the evolution of the landless movement from its birth during the twilight years of Brazil's military dictatorship through the first government of Luiz In cio Lula da Silva. It uses this case to test a number of major theoretical perspectives on social movements and engages in a critical dialogue with both contemporary political opportunity theory and Mancur Olson's classic economic theory of collective action.

Pour elle, l’architecture ne se réduit pas à un effet formel, elle implique la vie, la pensée critique et l’action collective. Cet ouvrage nous permet de comprendre le dialogue, à la fois critique et fécond, que Lina Bo Bardi noue avec la culture du xxe siècle. Son héritage créatif et visionnaire reste d’actualité dans un monde où les valeurs et pratiques humanistes sont en jeu.

Summary:
This catalog traces German photographer Wolfgang Tillmans' unique 2025 project at the Centre Pompidou, for which he was given a generous carte blanche. The result occupied the entire second floor of the Public Information Library, where Tillmans' experimental installation transformed the space, establishing a dialogue with the former library and questioning it both as architecture and as a locus for the transmission of knowledge. The work explores over 35 years of artistic practice through various photographic genres and constitutes another very personal representation of his universe, whose order and logic are activated in response to the library space. With 600 images, an index of the works alternates with numerous installation shots that show how the artist made this space his own, while a varied selection of essays by a younger generation of authors sheds new light on the various aspects of Tillmans' work.
