Summary:
This illustrated collection features designers and projects that push the boundaries of art and architecture. "Architecture : art" explores the disparate ways in which contemporary artists and architects handle the blurring lines between their disciplines. Contemporary art often oversteps the limits of its traditional concepts and modes of presentation, increasingly moving into virtual and actual spaces. Similarly, many of today's architects depart from the principles of classical modernism and historical models to integrate artistic concepts into the design and construction of their buildings. The book highlights the most exciting examples of these interdisciplinary activities, from Zaha Hadid's Guggenheim Museum in Taichung, Taiwan to Richard Meier's Jubilee Church in Rome, Italy, and from Hiroshi Sugimoto's Go'o Shrine to Richard Serra's Torqued Ellipses. Profiles of the featured artists and architects are included, along with an introductory essay elucidating the historical foundations from which architecture and art have coevolved to the present day.

Summary:
En Europe, les trois quarts de la population vivent en milieu urbain : en Asie, c'est de l'ordre de 40 %. Mais de quoi la ville de demain sera-t-elle faite ? Quelles architectures, quels espaces publics ? Quelle pensée, quels concepts domineront les deux décennies à venir ? Autant de questions soulevées par "Architecture tomorrow", un livre sur l'évolution du cadre de vie contemporain aux prises avec la mondialisation. Qu'ils soient dédiés au travail ou aux loisirs, à l'habitat ou au commerce, à la santé ou à l'éducation, les lieux deviennent de plus en plus hybrides. Mais au-delà de la complexité inhérente à cette nouvelle génération de programmes, les bâtiments se doivent d'intégrer la démarche planétaire de " développement durable ". Parallèlement, l'heure n'est plus à l'utopie mais à l'expérimentation dans trois domaines en perpétuel croisement : architecture, social et culturel. En ce XXI° siècle placé sous le signe de la transversalité, l'architecture se nourrit des emprunts aux autres disciplines - l'art contemporain notamment - mais s'enrichit aussi des transferts de technologie. Manipulations informatiques aidant, les architectes peuvent explorer de nouveaux champs et donner corps à leur rêve d'espace. Le musée Guggenheim de Bilbao, icône de la modernité s'il en est, a ouvert l'autoroute de possibilités infinies ; et la gare maritime de Yokohama a déjà pris le relais... Ainsi apparaissent de nouvelles formes, de nouvelles matières, de nouveaux lieux dans ces bâtiments parfois singuliers, mais toujours spécifiques. Car on ne se risquerait plus aujourd'hui à parler d'" avant-garde ". Dans cet esprit de prospective, "Architecture tomorrow" propose plus qu'une revue des tendances : c'est l'analyse, au bout du compte, des " attitudes " des architectes en réponse aux questionnements d'une société envahie par l'image. Ils se montrent en phase avec cette mutation accélérée ; beaucoup anticipent les usages, les modes de vie. Sculpturaux ou immatériels, générateurs d'urbanité ou catalyseurs de flux, les œuvres et projets présentés dans ce livre s'attachent à réaffirmer l'architecture comme un véritable acte culturel. En paysage urbain comme dans le grand paysage naturel. Une rue sous une immense voile de verre à Milan, une ambassade conçue comme une promenade à Berlin, des logements suspendus au-dessus de l'eau à Cordoue, une immense plaque perforée jouant l'interface avec le patrimoine de Saint-Etienne... L'architecture contemporaine d'offre à nous dans une prodigieuse ingéniosité où le poétique sait le disputer à la technique, le social au monumental, l'éphémère au pérenne.

Volume 1: Josef Lackner (1931–2000), whose uncompromising approach to architecture is examined in five of his buildings. PAUHOF (Michael Hofstätter, born in 1953, and Wolfgang Pauzenberger, born in 1955), whose conceptual work methods link utopias with reality creating added social value. In volume 2, the German architecture theorist and sociologist Werner Sewing explores the issue of residential construction as a neglected field of work in terms of perception and theory. His exploration of this subject in discussion with seven Austrian architecture offices also researches common practices in this field. The beautifully crafted, two-volume catalog in a slipcase is an enduring documentation of this subject.

Summary:
This book stands in opposition to the popular notion that the best architecture is built on compromise. Rather, Neil Spiller argues, the most original and brave products of the architectural mind are often to be found in those projects which, for whatever reason, never came to fruition. "Lost Architectures" presents an array of such projects from the last decades of the twentieth century, consituting the unrealised dreams of some of the most inspirational architects working in the period. Most of the projects featured here have seldom, if ever, been published before, and some represent the last hand-drawn work of their creators before the age of the computer finally came into full force. Whilst they do not follow any specific style, these projects embody a spirit defined by Spiller as New Romanticism - a spirit which combines elements of aesthetic decadence and a certain camp mannerism with a love of angularity and mechanised ritual. Some of the architects in question are still in practice, with a great deal of high-profile built work behind them; others have never been recognised as they perhaps should have been. In both cases, this book is an invaluable resource of information and inspiration for students of architecture, as well as for theorists, historians and lay readers. It provides essential exposure for a range of work of great vitality which might otherwise risk being lost in the course of time.

Summary:
This volume announces the onset of a new era in architecture. It represents a redefinition of the architectural possibilities that were first opened up by Neil Spiller in his cyberspace titles of the late 90s. By looking beyond the present perception of buildings as static architectural objects, Spiller and his contributors concentrate on the potential of buildings to employ dextrous, cutting-edge technologies to create architecture that is reflexive. That is architecture which is highly responsive and intelligent, able to translate and connect to its contextual and environmental surroundings at a new level, while also operating in three or more spaces simultaneously. It is effectively an architecture that is wholly visionary rather than being grounded by the limitations of the present.

Summary:
Danish artist Asger Jorn (1914-1973) is internationally renowned for his activities within the CoBrA and the International Situationist groups. Quite apart from his paintings, prints, ceramics and sculptures, Jorn produced a remarkable amount of theoretical work. His ideas are still extremely relevant to contemporary discourse. However, in contrast to his artistic oeuvre, Jorn's theoretical arguments have received much less attention from scholars of architecture, art history or philosophy. This book for the first time reveals this largely ignored aspect of Jorn's work. Jorn's opinions and motivations are subsequently contextualized within the theoretical debate of his time and are linked in the book to examples of built architecture, which influenced and informed his conception of architecture and urbanism.
