Summary:
The Architecture of Failure exposes the ways in which failure has been suppressed, ignored and denied in the way we design our cities. It examines the 19th century fantasy architecture of the iron and glass exhibition palaces, strange, unprecedented, dream-like structures, almost all now lost, existing only as melancholy archive fragments; it traces the cultural legacy of(...)

Summary:
Non sans paradoxe, c’est à Paris que Walter Benjamin trouve les traces de ce qui lui permet de déchiffrer la nature, mieux la vérité de la modernité. Charles Baudelaire lui a servi de guide dans ces nouveaux temples du culte marchand que sont les passages couverts. Mais, en 1930, le luxe n’y est plus, tout comme le flâneur, c’est donc à une autre réalité que s’attache(...)

Summary:
Architecture can no longer limit itself to the art of making buildings; it must also invent the politics of taking them apart. This is Jill Stoner’s premise for a minor architecture. Her architect’s eye tracks differently from most, drawn not to the lauded and iconic but to what she calls “the landscape of our constructed mistakes”--metropolitan hinterlands rife with(...)

Summary:
Architecture can no longer limit itself to the art of making buildings; it must also invent the politics of taking them apart. This is Jill Stoner’s premise for a minor architecture. Her architect’s eye tracks differently from most, drawn not to the lauded and iconic but to what she calls “the landscape of our constructed mistakes”--metropolitan hinterlands rife with failed and foreclosed developments, undersubscribed office parks, chain hotels, and abandoned malls. These graveyards of capital, Stoner asserts, may be stripped of their excess and become sites of strategic spatial operations. But first we must dissect and dismantle prevalent architectural mythologies that brought them into being--western obsessions with interiority, with the autonomy of the building-object, with the architect’s mantle of celebrity, and with the idea of nature as that which is “other” than the built metropolis. These four myths form the warp of the book.

Ces 10 clefs abordent l'architecture non par une approche spectaculaire, mais par une voie plus subjective. Elles tentent d'éviter l'écueil consistant à présenter ce domaine aux yeux du grand public comme une valeur culturelle fondée soit sur la dimension patrimoniale, soit sur les prouesses techniques des grands ouvrages d'art, ou encore sur la dimension événementielle(...)
