Summary:
This book is the fruit of a lengthy research project, which gathers and organises coherent sets of material that reflect the timeline of René Heyvaert's (1928-1984) artistic experimentations. It aims to show, for the first time, a significant selection of his mail art. His mail art is linked to his generally multiform oeuvre – which retains, given that he was originally an architect, an overt material and spatial relation to its environment – as well as to his vital circumstances: his gradually deteriorating health, and the loneliness that fed his epistolary vocation.

Summary:
This magical realist story is about a hardworking, marginalized woman, Isabelle. Isabelle could be any woman any age anywhere. After years of struggling, disappointment and exhaustion, she finds herself unemployed, homeless and despairing wandering the streets of Montreal. Until she meets a group of other women.

Summary:
The inner courtyard of a Moroccan house promises refuge from the bustle of the outside world, while remaining in touch with nature. Reached by a dark and winding passage, the courtyard is the physical and spiritual centre of the house. Green vegetation, flowering plants (in the garden-like Riads), and fountains fed by narrow channels of flowing water provide a cool, shaded enclosure. Light from above combines to create a serene and sheltering atmosphere, a peaceful paradise. A venerable tradition, still very much alive. Werner Blaser has captured this marvellous architecture in duotone photos.
