Summary:
Dans une indifférence quasi générale, notre planète entre dans une phase d'extinction de masse causée par l'homme, la sixième depuis que la vie s'est diversifiée sur Terre il y a de cela 500 millions d'années. Surexploitation des ressources, surconsommation, suroffre, surcapacités technologiques, changement climatique, déforestation... les hommes se livrent à une destruction massive des écosystèmes à l'échelle planétaire, et notre mode de développement condamne probablement une espèce toutes les 20 minutes. Quels sont les mécanismes et les causes principales de l'extinction des espèces ? Que peut-on attendre des agendas politiques ? Faut-il promouvoir une écologie de combat ou une écologie de la réconciliation qui replace l'homme au sein de la nature ? Comment éviter ou limiter cette sixième extinction ? Pour comprendre les enjeux de cette crise majeure, un écologue, un biologiste marin, un spécialiste en gestion et économie de l'environnement et une philosophe de l'environnement nous invitent à leur table. Au fil de leurs connaissances, de leurs craintes mais aussi de leurs espoirs, ils nous apportent un éclairage scientifique et citoyen sur la sixième extinction de masse, la première de l'Anthropocène.

From an experimental approach to design, to non-linear values in the field of editorial content, Modern Matter is a unisex publication which aims to examine exactly what can be achieved in the field of printed matter: ultimately, its approach is to use the physical page in the same way that a curator or a gallerist might use a gallery space.

Les maisons d’architecte japonaises intriguent. Souvent mal comprises et extraites de leur contexte physique, culturel et social, elles évoquent une course étrange et frénétique à la nouveauté, voire un rapport mal cerné à la tradition. Ce livre cherche à donner des repères historiques et contextuels qui permettent de mieux comprendre les conditions d’élaboration et de production de ces maisons. Les auteurs ont sélectionné 14 maisons d’hier et 20 d’aujourd’hui. Les premières constituent les jalons du XXè siècle. Les secondes sont récentes et montrent une nouvelle génération de créateurs à l’œuvre. Ces études de cas, composées d’interviews, de plans, de photos et de films, offrent un florilège à la fois didactique et léger, où l’ordinaire côtoie toujours l’exotique. Ce livre est le catalogue de l’exposition Japon L’archipel de la Maison.
