Summary:
New York City is home to some of the most recognizable places in the world. As familiar as the sight of New Year’s Eve in Times Square or a protest in front of City Hall may be to us, do we understand who controls what happens there? Kristine Miller delves into six of New York’s most important public spaces to trace how design influences their complicated lives. Miller(...)

Summary:
New York City is home to some of the most recognizable places in the world. As familiar as the sight of New Year’s Eve in Times Square or a protest in front of City Hall may be to us, do we understand who controls what happens there? Kristine Miller delves into six of New York’s most important public spaces to trace how design influences their complicated lives. Miller chronicles controversies in the histories of New York locations including Times Square, Trump Tower, the IBM Atrium, and Sony Plaza. The story of each location reveals that public space is not a concrete or fixed reality, but rather a constantly changing situation open to the forces of law, corporations, bureaucracy, and government. The qualities of public spaces we consider essential, including accessibility, public ownership, and ties to democratic life, are, at best, temporary conditions and often completely absent. Design is, in Miller’s view, complicit in regulation of public spaces in New York City to exclude undesirables, restrict activities, and privilege commercial interests, and in this work she shows how design can reactivate public space and public life.

Summary:
This book is about bodies. Presenting the work of Dutch performance artist Mariken Overdijk, it explores how bodies traverse the familiar surroundings of one’s home or move along the familiar routes of everyday life, but also the relation of bodies to public space. On another level, the book also addresses how artistic research recounts the experiments and experiences, collections and vistas gained by the researcher during the course of their work. It shows that any good (artistic) research also creates futures. Overdijk makes clear that artworks are not singular events, but each creates a possibility that, however minimal, changes lives forever. Foreword by Jeroen Boomgaard.

Plus de quinze projets de paysage illustrés de photographies en couleur et de plans, documentés et commentés en détail par leurs architectes respectifs, offrent une mise à jour des connaissances de cette branche du design, utile au professionnel ou à l'étudiant impliqué dans la gestion du paysage. Les projets sélectionnés contiennent des concepts qui ont été appliqués à de nombreux contextes et à différentes échelles. Montagnes, vallées, environnements climatiques spécifiques et espaces de différents types se convertissent en une nouvelle forme d'expression artistique. La nature et l'art acquièrent une vision cosmologique à travers laquelle s'estompent les limites et surgissent de nouveaux environnements significatifs, qui exaltent les caractéristiques du milieu local et invitent les personnes à réévaluer le lieu dans lequel elles vivent.
