Summary:
Fantasmapolis, la ville contemporaine et ses imaginaires est le fruit d'une réflexion sur la ville à l'ère de la globalisation. L'exposition réalisée dans ce cadre réunit des artistes qui abordent la ville contemporaine dans des perspectives utopiques, critiques ou poétiques. L'association de leurs œuvres crée un paysage urbain fantasmagorique plutôt qu'elle ne témoigne d'un regard documentaire. La circulation accrue des personnes et la communication accélérée des informations transforment les espaces urbains en lieux de transit où l'individu tend à disparaître. Reste alors un décor architectural immobile, suspendu dans le temps et dans l'espace. Les artistes proposent des visions de villes décontextualisées : cités existantes ou imaginaires, elles forment un univers urbain fantasmé. Conçu à la fois comme un complément de l'exposition et un ouvrage théorique, ce catalogue rassemble des textes qui reflètent une recherche pluridisciplinaire autour de la ville contemporaine. Valérie Mavridorakis et David Perreau introduisent la publication en résumant la problématique de Fantasmapolis. Évoquant la globalisation, Elvan Zabunyan inscrit le propos de l'exposition dans une perspective postcoloniale. Un texte de Lieven de Cauter présente les processus de théâtralisation qui affectent l'urbanité. Bruce Bégout se livre à une investigation philosophique de Las Vegas, emblème de la ville décor. Un entretien avec l'architecte et urbaniste Serge Wachter permet de soulever des questions relatives au transit urbain. Marie-Ange Brayer analyse l'utilisation de la maquette d'architecture dans l'art contemporain. Enfin, un écrit inédit de Bodys Isek Kingelez complète cet espace de réflexion et introduit les notices consacrées aux artistes.

Au-delà de la présentation des périodes et des styles distincts tels que «baroque» ou «moderne», Andrew Ballantyne explore la signification économique, politique et esthétique des objets architecturaux tout en relevant comment l'architecture prend tout son sens à la lumière de la tradition et comment elle contribue à faire de nous les êtres que nous sommes.

Summary:
The work presented in this book is an invitation to undertake an urgent architectural and political thought experiment: to rethink today’s struggles for justice and equality not only from the historical perspective of revolution, but also from that of a continued struggle for decolonization; consequently, to rethink the problem of political subjectivity not from the point of view of a Western conception of a liberal citizen but rather from that of the displaced and extraterritorial refugee. You will not find here descriptions of popular uprising, armed resistance, or political negotiations, despite these of course forming an integral and necessary part of any radical political transformation. Instead, the authors present a series of provocative projects that try to imagine “the morning after revolution.”

Summary:
Architecture and Authorship comprises 17 essays, encompassing a variety of contemporary and historical case studies, which explore issues of authorship, ownership and "copyright" in architecture. The book documents how, from the fifteenth century onwards, individual architects and movements have endeavoured to maintain their status by defending what they see as their own unique territory -- the origins and intentions of their work, and their signature style. Written contributions from international experts in architecture and art history cover a variety of fascinating topics, including domestic space; eighteenth century landscape gardens; the Berlin of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century; and postmodernism and the "Death of the Author;" as well as exploring the work of luminaries from Ernst Neufert and Cedric Price to Rem Koolhaas. Architecture and Authorship is a lavishly illustrated alternative look at the history and culture of architecture, and the thought processes and ideas behind a variety of architectural "practices."

En s'appuyant sur l'histoire des traités et des théories architecturales depuis le XVIIe siècle, Grassi défend une discipline autonome, rigoureuse et responsable, capable de répondre aux enjeux du territoire et du phénomène urbain. Ce texte fondamental dessine les contours d'une architecture entendue comme une théorie pratique, où la construction devient l'expression la plus aboutie de la pensée.
