Art criticism has been said to be in crisis for decades – and one of its mainstays, the review, would seem to be in no better shape. The number of exhibition reviews in the pages of national daily papers has been in continuous decline, and the material conditions that make the articulation of well-founded criticism possible are deteriorating. Moreover, at least in the(...)

Summary:
Art criticism has been said to be in crisis for decades – and one of its mainstays, the review, would seem to be in no better shape. The number of exhibition reviews in the pages of national daily papers has been in continuous decline, and the material conditions that make the articulation of well-founded criticism possible are deteriorating. Moreover, at least in the domain of visual art, critics seem to be losing the taste for judgment: more and more often, solidly reasoned objections have ceded ground to affirmative description. This issue of ''TEXTE ZUR KUNST'' responds to the situation by making the case for the review and shedding light on its shifting circumstances

Through interiors as well as covers, designers provide structure and information that shape the meaning and experience of books. In "The design of books", Debbie Berne shines a light on the conventions and processes of her profession, revealing both the aesthetic and market-driven decisions designers consider to make books readable and beautiful. In clear, unstuffy language, Berne reveals how books are put together, with discussions of production considerations, typography and fonts, page layouts, use of images and color, special issues for ebooks, and the very face of each book: the cover.

Summary:
Russian artist El Lissitzky’s work spans painting, photography, theatrical and exhibition design, architecture, graphic design, typography, and literature. He was active in the Jewish cultural renaissance, formed an artists’ collective with Kazimir Malevich, was a key figure in the dissemination of early Soviet art in Western Europe, and designed propaganda for the Stalin regime. With such a varied history and body of work, scholars have often struggled to identify the core principles that tied his diverse oeuvre together. With this book, Johnson presents a significant contribution to scholarship on this major artist, revealing new connections between Lissitzky’s work in architecture and visual art and bringing to light sources from largely unstudied Russian archives.

Summary:
What is architecture when computers redefine it? Two books explore the nature and potential of architecture in the age of artificial intelligence. Inspired by architect Fritz Haller (1924-2012), a virtual persona asks him about the architecture of the future. The first book uses artificial intelligence to network the Internet of Things into a new architecture. The second presents six works by Fritz Haller in the multidisciplinary light of the 2020s and shows them like icons that already contain what was only thought of later. The two volumes are neither historical nor analytical - they are visionary and projective and, in some respects, represent an experiment in themselves. They show an architecture that does rethink and does not evaluate.

Architectural photographer Jussi Tiainen has skilfully captured in his photographs the versatile nature of concrete, its smoothness and coarseness, strength and sensitivity, hardness and softness, and light and shadow. For this book he has photographed the best of Finnish concrete architecture from recent years – 16 different buildings, ranging from public buildings to a single-family house, and from new buildings to remodelling projects. Among the architects’ offices included are JKMM Architects, Lahdelma & Mahlamäki Architects, and Heikkinen & Komonen Architects. The article at the beginning of the book by architect Maritta Koivisto, edtior-in-chief of the Finnish journal Betoni [Concrete], opens an interesting angle on the uses of concrete in building and architecture.

From scientific discoveries to animist beliefs, plants are an inexhaustible source of stories that reveal our most intimate desires and fears. Photography is the primary witness to his phenomenon. ''Science/Fiction'' questions human projections and representations of the vegetal world, bringing to light the subjectivity, intelligence and expressive abilities of plants. The publication traces a visual history of plants, linking art, technology and science from the mid-19th century to the present day through two conceptual frameworks: scientific and fictional. Bringing together more than 30 artists across different periods of time and parts of the world, it employs the logic of the science fiction novel, taking us from a stable, identifiable world and gradually plunging us into uncertain landscapes.

Drawing inspiration from Giorgione’s "The Tempest," the artist brings Renaissance memory into dialogue with the transformations of Italy’s Northeast, where historical architecture, industrial warehouses, and shifting natural environments coexist. From Carlo Scarpa’s Brion Tomb to Canova’s Gypsotheca, Barbieri moves between sweeping views and intimate details, using color and light as critical tools of inquiry. Photography becomes a laboratory where art, architecture, and science converge, revealing new ways of seeing and understanding place. Featuring thirty-two previously unpublished works and insightful critical texts, the volume presents a landscape suspended between history, industry, and imagination.
