Summary:
Pivot is a new peer-reviewed graduate academic interdisciplinary journal involving the Departments of Art History, Studio Arts and Communication Studies. The Journal is produced out of Concordia University, which presents a unique site for the exploration of interdisciplinarity within the humanities, where the disciplines of Art History, Studio Arts and Communication Studies are continually negotiating shared and divided scholarly territories. Taking our cue from journals that combine art making and academic writing, such as Afterall and LTTR, Pivot recognizes art production as a site for scholarly exploration, and accepts content in the form of academic papers, artist project descriptions, short texts by artists, and image based proposals. Pivot’s unique print format reflects this dual engagement by combining book arts practice with academic journal production.

Summary:
C’est à un chantier de recherche et de création en constante évolution que nous invite Ælab, le duo formé par les artistes Gisèle Trudel et Stéphane Claude. La publication révèle les prémisses de Devenir-hêtre en insistant sur les fondements de la démarche interdisciplinaire d’Ælab. Dans le premier texte, Monique Régimbald-Zeiber et Denise Pérusse abordent l’histoire récente de la recherche-création au Québec. Elles défendent l’importance de la rencontre entre les arts et les sciences pour créer de nouveaux rapports au monde en transformation qu’est le nôtre. Le potentiel du rapprochement qu’elles prônent se trouve illustré de manière concrète dans le texte de l’ingénieur forestier Christoforos Pappas. Il y relate les défis, mais également la richesse de sa collaboration avec MÉDIANE entre 2020 et 2022, notamment en regard de la conscientisation du public aux enjeux climatiques actuels. Enfin, le texte de l’architecte Juliette Pernin se penche sur le support matériel qui permet de présenter les résultats de ces enquêtes informées de savoirs multiples, la structure d’échafaudages. Elle souligne comment cette « limite épaisse » temporaire, qui évoque le monde de la construction et du théâtre, accentue la perception de l’environnement.

Summary:
"The Empty Room", in the absence of any visual materials, was a written manifesto composed of RZLBD’s poems and collection of quotes intended to portray the room and the emptiness as the essence of architecture. Now, "100 Rooms" complements our own blurry images of the empty room with a visual guide. Each spread consists of a plan and a physical model of a room, which is an excavation of the geometry and order inherent within the square. It holds no design intention — no scale or function — but simply one of infinite possibilities that emerge from a square. This framework suggests that the formal expression of a room comes from within. With these visual references, one can begin to imagine many approximations to the empty room. A line on paper is always less, as Kahn says, but through these measurable means, the immeasurable idea of the empty room will be formed in one’s mind.
