Summary:
A compelling survey of Texas houses that draw both on the heritage of pioneer ranches and on the twentieth-century design principles of modernism. Helen Thompson and Casey Dunn, the writer/photographer team that produced "Marfa Modern", join forces again to investigate Texas modernism. The juxtaposition of the sleek European forms with a gritty Texas spirit generated a unique brand of modernism that is very basic to the culture of the state today. Its roots are in the early Texas pioneer houses, whose long, low profiles express an efficiency that is basic to the modern idiom. This Texas-centric style is focused on the relationship of the house to the site, the materials it is made of--most often local stone and wood--and the way the building functions in the harsh Texas climate.

Summary:
This fictional work about the construction and decay of a late modernist building can also be read as an essay on our contemporary unease with modernism in general. Author Brian Dillon, UK editor of Cabinet magazine, based it on research into St. Peter's Seminary, a college complex commissioned by the Catholic Church in the 1950s, completed in 1968, and abandoned by 1980. On the outskirts of Glasgow - itself a city with a vexed relationship to Le Corbusier-esque modernism - the building is rich with histories: of its architects, its residing student priests, the drug addicts it once housed and treated, and the local teenagers for whom it is a kind of Gothic recreation center. This book takes the material remains of modernism and treats them from a literary point of view.

La XVe Triennale de Milan (1973), Roma Interrotta (1978) et la première biennale d’architecture de Venise (1980) réunissent les protagonistes américains et européens qui explorent de nouvelles voies dans la conception du projet architectural et urbain, et alimentent un dialogue renouvelé avec l’histoire et une redéfinition de l’urbanité. À travers des concepts et des scénographies diverses (cadavre exquis, collage, kitsch, citation, …), ces manifestations invitent à s’interroger autant sur ce que doit être une exposition d’architecture que sur le message qu’elle doit véhiculer.
