Featuring a selection of images that includes never-before-seen photographs and editorial projects spanning from the 1970s to the 1990s, Personal Ads reveals Pippa Garner’s capacity for reimagining everyday life and turning it into a cultural critique. It brings to the fore how she employed fashion as a tool for bodily reinvention and art as a vehicle for personal and political expression — highlighting how she rejected categorization to embrace hybridity, humor, and radical transformation. The publication includes an interview with Pippa by Luca Lopinto, former director of Macro museum (Rome), an artistic contribution by fashion collective BLESS and an introduction by Giorgia Basch, creative Director of BilderAtlas.

While part one, "Simulation," blends the artificial with the familiar – whether in scale models or controlled biomes – the following part, "Promise," explores how futures are staged to organise the present. "Role" examines how identities become naturalized through space, claiming to be neutral, caring or traditional. "Scam" investigates architecture and urbanism as credible deceptive practices, where authenticity is fabricated and images pave the way for a collective participation in illusions. "Construction" examines how territorial interventions, such as camps, corridors, or quarries, produce political realities and stabilise power, turning narration into infrastructure. Ultimately, pseudo emerges as a condition that both shifts and suspends reality: not fully true, yet never entirely false.

Summary:
From the Renaissance to the present day, each generation of artists, architects, and writers has used the powerful images of ruins to project its own vision of time and human destiny. The metamorphosis of the ruin motif in art explains not only the separations but the continuities between the perception of past and present that characterize the different art movements. Drawing from all media of Western art including garden design, photography, and fine art, Michel Makarius explores the rich and diverse iconography of ruins from da Vinci to Van Gogh, from Botticelli to Roy Lichtenstein. Ruins is a reminder of history at a time when few art motifs still have the power to demand attention for our immense collective past - and at a moment when a reminder is sorely needed.

Projet au coeur de l'oeuvre, comme la clé d'un tiroir dans le tiroir lui-même, il ouvre la voie à une conception collective et relativiste de la connaissance, synonyme dès lors de liberté.

La carrière exceptionnelle de François Morelli se déploie sur quatre décennies, investissant sur plus de six disciplines artistiques à leur manière à travers le temps. Du dessin libre à l’estampe, de l’action publique à la performance et à l’installation in situ, l’œuvre de François Morelli trouve son fondement dans une pratique quotidienne du dessin, croisée d’une volonté constante d’intervenir dans le tissu social. À travers une démarche très polyvalente, François Morelli s’intéresse aux notions de passage, de migration et de transformation. Il investit le corps comme sujet d’étude tant au niveau personnel qu’au niveau social et historique. L’œuvre traite des frontières entre mémoire collective et mémoire personnelle, des rapports entre le politique et le domestique, entre le tragique et le grotesque.

But as Texte zur Kunst No. 102 proposes, it is fashion’s protagonists, recently, that have been markedly drawing on art conceptual practices (e.g., parasitism, collective authorship, détournement, and forms of institutional critique) as they push back against the pressures of a hyper-accelerated fashion market. In this issue, TzK examines, also, how the industry’s current volume is a product of its late-'00s promise of online democratization; the changing function of such long-held value designations as “luxury,” “discount,” and “underground,” and the role of “real”-er bodies in a climate wherein models are preferably “nodels” or “othered” bodies, hyper-individualised to stand out in the stream.

Our society seems to be locked into a position in which the user’s and voter’s choices determine how we shall live in the future. A disturbing collective urban life in a giant Big Brother House looms, a material and social world in which sensationalistic media and its commercial translation dominate. Our sense of what is real and what is quality is on the verge of collapse. The practice and education of the engineers of this society is determined by short-term effect instead of long-term social responsibility. Culture becomes little more than a market, politics its façade and the city its stage. Instead of reviving old school high modernist social engineering or claiming the need for an intellectual junta, we solicit new forms of social engineering. Where shall this lead?

The Mechanical Bride is vintage McLuhan — so aptly illustrated by dozens of examples from ads, comic strips, columnists, etc., that those who were stung by McLuhan were hard put for rebuttals. It shows how sex was first used to sell industrial hardware, how Orphan Annie still keeps the world on track, and how an Arabian Nights wonderland of mass entertainment and suggestion makes information irrelevant, and sends us to bed at night too dazed to question whether we’re happy or not. We live in an age in which legions of highly educated professionals dedicate themselves to the task of getting inside the collective public mind with the object of manipulating, exploiting and controlling.

Summary:
For reasons both obvious and mysterious, even as our cultural and social constructions of domesticity change, the house remains a fundamental site for advancing modern architectural theory and practice: because it accommodates a full diurnal and annual cycle of life, and because it intricately stages ritual and routine, this most private of programs has become a medium of publicity and polemic. This volume both participates in and critiques this contemporary tradition. The reader’s attention in this examination is directed not only to Levenbetts’ houses, but to all houses, and all parts of houses—pieces of home and rhetorics of domesticity that show up in our collective memory: from a stolen moment on a staircase in a John Cassavetes film, to the sturdy knife-edged contractor modernism of suburban late to mid-twentieth-century America.
