Summary:
From 2012 to 2014 a series of contemporary art exhibitions, events, and participatory forums organized by Galerija Nova, Tensta konsthall, and Grazer Kunstverein comprised the project “Beginning as Well as We Can (How Do We Talk about Fascism?).” Focusing on the startling increase of nationalism across Europe—made palpable in manifestations of fascist tendencies and the cult of heritage—the project points to the possibility and power of art to imagine futures that are not irrevocably determined by the present, but are invested with struggles fought here and now. Art and the F Word: Reflections on the Browning of Europe, edited by curator Maria Lind and the collective What, How & for Whom/WHW, continues the debate with contributions by cultural critics, curators, and artists, which articulate resistant and constructive possibilities of social and artistic production—investigating the language of politics and philosophy and also popular vocabularies, social contexts, media, science, and aesthetics.

Many argue that high-rises deliver positive environmental effects, such as densification, and reduction of traffic and C02 emissions. But is it really that simple?

Summary:
In the Netherlands, climate change has brought more frequent and extreme rainfall causing pluvial flooding. Though the Dutch have dealt with water for centuries, since the Industrial Revolution urban water systems have become very inflexible and are now unable to deal with these new conditions. Despite the long tradition of building in wet and soft soil conditions, there has been little systematic research on building-site preparation and its relation to urban development and design. This book addresses this issue by investigating the relation between the available technology, the attitude towards the natural conditions and the urban design.

L'architecte y égrenne ses considérations, tantôt mordantes, tantôt admiratives, mais toujours percutantes, au sujet de cinquante-neuf personnalités, d'Andy Warhol à Ettore Sottsass en passant par Pierre Soulages, Francis Bacon ou Claude Viallat. Ainsi, Malevitch se voit-il qualifier d' « assassin », tandis qu'Oscar Niemeyer se retrouve « à la droite de Dieu » mais « vit en enfer à cause de la bétonnière », tandis que Beuys est réduit à un « piètre pilote, dompteur de coyotes et grand reporter au Wall Street Journal ».
