Summary:
In Travels in the History of Architecture, Robert Harbison provides an engaging and concise companion to the great themes and aesthetic movements in architecture from antiquity to the present day. The book begins its journey with the great temples of the Egyptians and the shrines of Classical Greece and Rome and then provides a complete survey of architecture through the present day. Each chapter of this dynamic and approachable volume focuses on a movement in architectural history, including Byzantine, Baroque, Mannerism, Historicism, Functionalism, and Deconstruction. Unique to this work is Harbison’s wide-ranging approach, which draws on references and examples outside of architecture—from literature, art, sculpture, and history—to further illustrate and contextualize the themes and ideas of each period.

This work presents a compilation of materials with which seventeen artists reflect on the gap between architecture as idea, architecture on paper, and its actual use - in other words, the 'afterwards' of construction. The project distinguishes four possible typologies of the afterwards: back, interior, around and demolition. These typologies of the afterwards would in(...)

Summary:
This work presents a compilation of materials with which seventeen artists reflect on the gap between architecture as idea, architecture on paper, and its actual use - in other words, the 'afterwards' of construction. The project distinguishes four possible typologies of the afterwards: back, interior, around and demolition. These typologies of the afterwards would in this way come to compose a kind of heterotopia of architecture. It is illustrated with works by Vangelis Vlahos,Terence Gower, Pia Ronicke, Xavier Arenos, Gregor Graf, Mounir Fatmi, Xavier Monteys, Heidrun Holzfeind, Tim Etchells, Laurent Malone/ Dennis Adams, Didier Bay, Jordi Colomer, Alexander Apostol, Chris Mottalini, Lara Almarcegui, Jan Tichy and Clay Ketter.
