Summary:
In the wake of World War I, an international movement arose which aimed to protect architectural monuments in large numbers, and regardless of style, hoping not only to keep them safe from future conflicts, but also to make them worthy of protection from more quotidian forms of destruction.

Summary:
Après avoir détruit sa maison-oeuvre-laboratoire en céramique blanche de Garches, Jean-Pierre Raynaud a exposé au CAPC-musée d’Art contemporain de Bordeaux les gravats, telles des reliques, dans des poubelles métalliques en usage dans les blocs opératoires. Pour lui, en effet, l’oeuvre d’art est un but et son unique raison d’être. « Le but n’est pas de faire des oeuvres d’art, il est de vivre l’oeuvre d’art comme un but ». « En 23 ans, la maison a connu cinq stades successifs. Et je tenais beaucoup à en assurer moi-même les métamorphoses. Quand j’ai pris conscience, en 1988, qu’elle était réellement terminée, cela a été un choc terrible, comme l’aboutissement d’une recherche, la fin d’une vie. Je n’ai pas voulu accepter que ma relation avec elle prenne fin, aussi, durant quatre ans, j’ai réfléchi sur le sens de cette « oeuvre » qui m’échouait comme si je devais en être le gardien jusqu’à ma mort. J’ai réalisé qu’étant unique elle méritait plus d’audace et d’égard que cette architecture parfaite, figée qu’elle était devenue, ce qui est le propre des objets d’art, il me fallait lui faire subir un sort exceptionnel, digne d’elle. Je décidai de la métamorphoser, de l’emporter ailleurs, de lui faire vivre une expérience absolue. Pour cela, elle devait se soumettre à une ultime transformation : la démolition ». Jean-Pierre Raynaud, 1993. Le livre retrace l'histoire de la maison, de sa construction à sa destruction. Il est accompagné du film de Michelle Porte (33 min).

Summary:
Once symbols of the past, ruins have become ubiquitous signs of our future. Americans today encounter ruins in the media on a daily basis - images of abandoned factories and malls, toxic landscapes, devastating fires, hurricanes, and floods. In this sweeping study, Miles Orvell offers a new understanding of the spectacle of ruins in US culture, exploring how photographers, writers, painters, and filmmakers have responded to ruin and destruction, both real and imaginary, in an effort to make sense of the past and envision the future. ''Empire of ruins'' explains why Americans in the nineteenth century yearned for the ruins of Rome and Egypt and how they portrayed a past as ancient and mysterious in the remains of Native American cultures. As the romance of ruins gave way to twentieth-century capitalism, older structures were demolished to make way for grander ones, a process interpreted by artists as a symptom of America's "creative destruction." In the late twentieth century, Americans began to inhabit a perpetual state of ruins, made visible by photographs of decaying inner cities, derelict factories and malls, and the waste lands of the mining industry. This interdisciplinary work focuses on how visual media have transformed disaster and decay into spectacles that compel our moral attention even as they balance horror and beauty. Looking to the future, Orvell considers the visual portrayal of climate ruins as we face the political and ethical responsibilities of our changing world. A wide-ranging work by an acclaimed urban, cultural, and photography scholar, ''Empire of ruins'' offers a provocative and lavishly illustrated look at the American past, present, and future.
