Summary:
Iñaki Ábalos and Juan Herreros established the renowned architectural firm Ábalos & Herreros in Madrid in 1984. At the time, following the end of the Franco regime, architects were valued more for their technical ability than for their contributions to theoretical research.

Summary:
Iñaki Ábalos and Juan Herreros established the renowned architectural firm Ábalos & Herreros in Madrid in 1984. At the time, following the end of the Franco regime, architects were valued more for their technical ability than for their contributions to theoretical research. In this context, Ábalos and Herreros’s melding of design with a range of publications and curatorial projects presented a remarkable challenge to assumptions about the role of an architect. In 2012, the Canadian Centre for Architecture obtained the Ábalos & Herreros archive, which contains documents related to more than 160 projects. The material comprises sketches, slides, models, collages, and drawings. The archive presents a compelling opportunity to reconstruct Ábalos and Herreros’s planning and design process. Each of the book’s three contributors—two of whom worked with Ábalos and Herreros—approaches the archive with specific questions, and their essays explore topics including the architects’ fascination with industrial architecture, their capacity to construct a hybrid materiality without recourse to building technology as language, and their innovative visions for landscape architecture.

Summary:
À l'instar de nombreuses grandes villes, dont Paris, Philadelphie ou Rio, Montréal se lance, dans les années 1960, dans un programme de transformation d'une échelle démesurée. Pourtant, avec son métro, ses galeries commerciales souterraines, son Exposition universelle (l'Expo 67), ce projet se distingue dans le choeur des métropoles : ici, gratte-ciel et autoroutes ont transformé fondamentalement le paysage architectural et urbain, sans compromettre durablement la vitalité du centre. Archétypique parmi les villes américaines et européennes touchées par ce phénomène, Montréal est en même temps unique par la vision qui sous-tend ce projet. Cet ouvrage richement illustré comprend des essais de spécialistes de différentes disciplines, des vignettes faites de courts textes et d'images nombreuses, et un saisissant essai photographique. Les auteurs y explorent les fondements qui on défini le devenir de Montréal - et dont nous n'avons cessé de vivre les effets depuis - et introduisent le lecteur à la vision qu'avaient alors architectes, urbanistes, écrivains, et artistes. Ce catalogue accompagne l'exposition "Les années 60 : Montréal voit grand" organisée par le Centre Canadien d'Architecture. Il propose un regard neuf sur l'héritage social, urbanistique, et architectural que cette décennie nous a légué.

Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
This catalogue to the CCA's exhibition presents four of the most representative and best documented of the artificial excavation projects: an urban design scheme for Cannaregio West in Venice (1978); a housing project near Checkpoint Charlie in Berlin (1980-1981, partially realized 1982-1986); a design for the University Art Museum at California State University, Long Beach (1986); and Chora L Works (1985-1986), a garden for the Parc de La Villette in Paris designed in collaboration with Jacques Derrida. Each project is presented through the architect's drawings and models, over 200 images in all, more than 150 of them in colour, most from the collections of the Canadian Centre for Architecture. Each project sequence begins with a theoretical text by Eisenman, then goes on to a project history describing the site and explaining Eisenman's design strategy. The unprecedented publication of complete series of conceptual drawings not only illustrates Eisenman's design process in detail, but also traces the transformation, through drawing and model making, of his architectural discourse. With essays by Alan Balfour, Yve-Alain Bois, Jean-François Bédard, Jean-Louis Cohen, Kurt W. Forster, K. Michael Hays, Arata Isozaki, and Fredric Jameson.

Summary:
"L'idée de la grande ville : L'architecture moderne d'Europe centrale, 1890 - 1937" examine pour la première fois l'explosion d'idées neuves en architecture qui a marqué les dernières décennies de l'empire des Habsbourg et les premières années aventureuses des nouvelles républiques d'Europe centrale. Véritable champ de bataille culturel entre différentes traditions et aspirations nationales, religieuses, ethniques et linguistiques, la région n'en était pas moins le foyer d'un profond idéal cosmopolite. S'intéressant à la ville en tant que modèle de société et milieu favorable à l'épanouissement d'une vie culturelle intense, le livre permet de découvrir une histoire remarquable où se conjuguent invention, expérimentation, sophistication et imagination - l'histoire d'architectes qui ont voulu exprimer un sens nouveau de l'urbanité et de la modernité. Ce catalogue, sous la direction d’Eve Blau et de Monika Platzer, rassemble des essais des deux directrices, ainsi que de Charles S. Maier, Moritz Csáky, Renate Banik-Schweitzer, Friedrich Achleitner, Petr Krajci et Rostislav Òvácha, Iain Boyd Whyte, Aleksander Laslo, Ihor Zuk, Jacek Purchla, Ileana Pintilie, András Ferkai, Breda Mihelic et Andrew Herscher. L'avant-propos est de Phyllis Lambert et Kurt W. Forster du Centre Canadien d'Architecture, Deborah Marrow du Getty Research Institute de Los Angeles et Rudolf Wran du ministère autrichien de l'éducation et des Affaires culturelles.

Summary:
Cedric Price Works 1952-2003: A Forward-Minded Retrospective by Samantha Hardingham is a two-volume anthology, co-published by the Architectural Association (AA) and the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA), and is supported by the Graham Foundation and the Cedric Price Estate. The books bring together for the first time all of the projects, articles and talks of British architect Cedric Price, aiming to present his munificence as thinker, philosopher and designer. A student at the AA in the 1950s, Price established his office in London in 1960 and went on to produce some of architecture's most intensely imaginative and experimental projects of the latter half of the 20th century. His work is central in defining architectural discourse around the emerging postwar themes of mobility and indeterminacy in design. 2 Volumes in a custom-made slipcase, 912 pages and 512 pages respectively. 1,255 colour and b illustrations.
