Summary:
Sidewalk Salon is a multidisciplinary exploration of Cairo's dynamic urban spaces as portrayed by its thousands of street chairs, local fiction, interviews and poetry. The images, gathered over three years and organized into two sections - walks and series - document the creativity and small improvisations that give Cairo its distinctive character and identity. Strictly speaking, the book is a photographic essay of original chairs, but in a larger sense it reveals the material and human dimensions of the vibrant and extemporaneous layer that exists between this city's buildings and its streets. In addition to over 400 Polaroid images, the publication features fiction and poetry commissioned from Egyptian writers, plus interviews with street chair owners.

Whether the object of his photographic exploration is a stack of aluminum profiles, a mock-up of a window section, or an artwork, it is “objectified” in the same way, contributing portrait and to question Finstral‘s production facilities as well as the idea of the window itself. The fact that it is shown primarily through its form, independent of its function, gives it a sculptural quality. Picture Window Frame is a book designed by Giulia Cordin and a traveling show with the exhibition design by Brussel architectural firm Office Kersten Geers David Van Severen.

Collectively these photographs add to one of the broadest and most nuanced visual explorations of America, and, individually, they are filled with the kind of intellectual humor and observation for which Friedlander has become celebrated. Along the way, of course, Friedlander has expanded our ideas of what constitutes real estate, just as he continues to compel us to reconsider how photography reveals essential aspects of our lives over time. The mirror that Lee Friedlander holds up to us is his mirror and everything reflected in it has the common traits of his way of seeing—each picture is definitively a Friedlander picture.

Summary:
DMJournal–Architecture and Representation is a new publication dedicated to the exploration of practices, histories and material cultures of drawing in architecture and related fields. ''In addressing this inaugural issue of Drawing Matter Journal to the 'geological imagination', we aimed to investigate the imbrication of thinking in architecture and art with matters of the earth, and to explore the kinds of graphic inscription to which this has given rise. Moreover, in doing so we wanted to attend to the much-debated concept of the Anthropocene and the way it has both given a new centrality to geology in critical cultural discourses and led to different kinds of questions being addressed to historical materials. This is evident in various ways across the contributions to this issue.''

Summary:
Lorsqu'en 1962 l'Algérie accède à son indépendance, la population hérite d'un espace façonné pendant 132 ans par l'architecture de l'Etat colonial français. De façon inédite dans l'histoire, un peuple va concrètement habiter l'indépendance, en investissant massivement un environnement bâti pour l'exclure, voire lui nuire. Ancré plus particulièrement à Alger, cet ouvrage revient sur les conditions d'une expérimentation urbaine et questionne la composante coloniale de l'architecture et de son enseignement, au fil du temps, dans les corpus français comme algériens. Fruit d'une réflexion collective transdisciplinaire qui ose aborder des sujets peu traités, de l'architecture carcérale à la trajectoire de la statuaire coloniale, cette exploration critique de l'aménagement d'Alger entend mettre en lumière les pratiques de la ville par les personnes qui l'habitent.

One in six new houses today is a prefab and 400,000 units are now produced in the U.S. each year. More than 50% of all homes are constructed in whole or in part by using building systems - modular, panelized components produced in quality controlled environments. This exploration of the best prefabricated houses on the market today, from all over the world, along with a resource directory on how you can purchase them, is an invaluable reference for those interested in this alternative.

At the core of Fulton’s practice are the experiences he accumulates during his perambulations, which he records in photographs, pictograms, and texts. The exploration of self and the encounter with nature become one and the same. "Keep moving" resulted from a period of time the artist spent in the Corvara region of the Dolomites in the summer of 2004, during which he went on eight day-long walks and a guided climb, using a small mountain hut as his base. Contributing an essay here is legendary mountaineer Reinhold Messner, with whom Fulton hiked the imagined trail followed by Ötzi the Iceman, whose 5,000-year-old skeleton was recently discovered in the South Tyrol.
