Summary:
Pour réussir «le Petit-Champlain», traduction populaire de The Little-Champlain qui a un temps désigné la petite rue Champlain, il fallait de l’audace et du génie. Gerry Paris et Jacques de Blois n’en manquaient pas. De tous les projets de rénovation, restauration ou mise en valeur qu’a connus le Québec depuis un demi-siècle, aucun n’a reposé sur autant de talent et d’engagement personnel. En 1976, les gouvernements du Québec et du Canada avaient acquis l’essentiel de la zone portuaire du Vieux-Québec. Tout ce que les gouvernements avaient ensuite su faire, c’était démolir et reconstruire lentement à grands frais. La vie avait quitté ce quartier. Le verdict était tombé: il deviendrait un quartier-musée. Des maisons étaient conçues pour le plaisir des yeux. Elles étaient sans fonction, sans utilité et trop chères pour être habitées par les derniers résidents du quartier. Comme tous les centres-villes, celui de Québec était à l’agonie et le Vieux-Québec avait déjà rendu l’âme. Peu à peu, l’hémorragie a été ralentie. Les villes ont commencé à écouter leurs urbanistes. Les promoteurs ont commencé à copier des modèles vus à l’étranger. À cet égard, de Blois et Paris font figure de pionniers. Comme ils aiment le dire: ils avaient un rêve, ils l’ont réalisé.Selon les idées reçues, les gens du privé sont là pour s’enrichir et ceux du public, pour veiller à l’intérêt commun. Dans le cas du «Petit-Champlain», de Blois et Paris ont tiré leur révérence au bout de leur santé. Faut-il chercher des coupables? De Blois n’en cherche pas. Il prend acte tout simplement. Dans une langue de conteur, enrichie par ses talents d’architecte et d’artiste, il nous fait partager une merveilleuse aventure. Il fait réfléchir aussi.

This catalogue explores how the design principles of Palladio have been interpreted, copied and re-imagined across time and continents in very different ways since his death, and how they continue to inspire architects today. It includes previously unexplored works that put Palladio in a new social context and brings out unexpected stories about the impact of his legacy on functionality and style. It also questions how a style and an approach to architecture that Palladio intended to be democratic is now associated with wealth.

Summary:
In our architectural pursuits, we often seem to be in search of something newer, grander, or more efficient—and this phenomenon is not novel. In the spring of 1910 hundreds of workers labored day and night to demolish the Gillender Building in New York, once the loftiest office tower in the world, in order to make way for a taller skyscraper. The New York Times puzzled(...)

In the spring of 1910 hundreds of workers labored day and night to demolish the Gillender Building in New York, once the loftiest office tower in the world, in order to make way for a taller skyscraper. The New York Times puzzled over those who would sacrifice the thirteen-year-old structure, “as ruthlessly as though it were some ancient shack.” In New York alone, the Gillender joined the original Grand Central Terminal, the Plaza Hotel, the Western Union Building, and the Tower Building on the list of just one generation’s razed metropolitan monuments.

This book includes the studio research and projects of Joe Day of Deegan Day Design in “NOWplex” a cinema in L.A., Tom Wiscombe of Tom Wiscombe Architecture in “The Broad Redux,” for a new interpretation of the Broad Museum in L.A., and Adib Cure & Carie Penabad of Cure Penabade in the studio “Havana: Housing in the Historic Center.” The studios explore contemporary interpretations of the implications of cinema, the museum, and housing, taking cues from their complex cultural and urban contexts. Along with student work, interviews with the architects about the work of their professional offices and essays framing the themes of the work are combined with insight into the pedagogical approach of these practitioner-educators.

Picturing space, displacing bodies: anamorphosis in early modern theories of perspective

Price:
$50.95
(available to order)
Summary:
In "Picturing Space, Displacing Bodies", Lyle Massey argues that we can only learn how and why certain kinds of spatial representation prevailed over others by carefully considering how Renaissance artists and theorists interpreted perspective. Combining detailed historical studies with broad theoretical and philosophical investigations, this book challenges basic assumptions about the way early modern artists and theorists represented their relationship to the visible world and how they understood these representations. By analyzing technical feats such as anamorphosis (the perspectival distortion of an object to make it viewable only from a certain angle), drawing machines, and printed diagrams, each chapter highlights the moments when perspective theorists failed to unite a singular, ideal viewpoint with the artist’s or viewer’s viewpoint or were unsuccessful at conjoining fictive and lived space. Showing how these “failures” were subsequently incorporated rather than rejected by perspective theorists, the book presents an important reassessment of the standard view of Renaissance perspective.

Advocating an architecture that is "the opposite of global action," architect Angelo Bucci's work responds to the topography of the city and to its urban environment. In a lecture delivered at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, Bucci discusses work designed with his firm SPBR, projects that span from the scale of the house to the city. His built work is here accompanied by an excerpt from his doctoral dissertation, which explores how the devices available to architecture—and the sectional manipulation of groundplanes in particular—can mitigate some of the inequities and exclusions built in to the fabric of the contemporary city. An essay by Kenneth Frampton frames these projects within the rich lineage of Brazilian house design and members of the Paulista school such as Paulo Mendes da Rocha and João Batista Vilanova Artigas.
