Summary:
"Legacy: Generations of Creatives in Dialogue" celebrates the legacy of renowned architects, artists and designers that have influenced the creative discourse over the last fifty years and brings them in critical dialogue with a young generation of upcoming influencers in the respective fields. Edited by Lukas Feireiss, the heart of this publication lies at the cross-generational exchange of ideas. The publication doesn't regard the legacy of an individual architect, artist or predecessor as an end point but as a simple moment in an infinite chain of contributions and inspirations that naturally extends and transforms through its successors.

Écrit sous la forme d’un essai plutôt que d’un manuel didactique, il démontre combien la triple transition écologique, numérique et sociale à l’oeuvre aujourd’hui dans les territoires en rétablit toute l’acuité, au service du management public local.

Summary:
This book presents the artistic avant-gardes of the last five decades as a tapestry of incidents as fascinating and unlikely as any collection of myths or legends. Thinking more of Kafka's ''Parables'' than Vasari's ''Lives of the Artists,'' Rubinstein composes a series of micro-narratives celebrating the mystery and ingeniousness of these human activities which, for lack(...)

Summary:
This book presents the artistic avant-gardes of the last five decades as a tapestry of incidents as fascinating and unlikely as any collection of myths or legends. Thinking more of Kafka's ''Parables'' than Vasari's ''Lives of the Artists,'' Rubinstein composes a series of micro-narratives celebrating the mystery and ingeniousness of these human activities which, for lack of a better term, we call ''contemporary art.'' Each of the fifty episodes in ''The Miraculous'' is a detailed telling of the circumstances surrounding a single work of art; only the name of the artist is withheld until the end of the book.

Summary:
''Matter Fictions'' addresses fiction as a mode of producing reality as well as the significance of matter, animal, vegetable, mineral, hybrid beyond binaries. Recounting a partial history of our relation with matter, the eponymous exhibition at Museu Coleo Berardo (May 4- August 21, 2016) explored how the crossover between cosmological narratives, spatial revolutions of concrete poetry, and hypertextual and territorial fictions might impact our understanding of human agency in a time that calls for action on climate change and technocratic policies. This companion reader features contributions from participating artists and like-minded writers that address the scope of this project as it exceeds the frame of art and the exhibition into the realm of non-human ecologies, ontologies, and temporalities.

Summary:
L’ouvrage « Capital agricole : chantiers pour une ville cultivée » déterre les liens qualitatifs entre production agricole et production urbaine, entre le cultivé et l’habité. Architectes, urbanistes, agriculteurs, écologues, ingénieurs, entrepreneurs, historiens, géographes, sociologues..., réunis autour de l’agence d’architecture SOA, reviennent sur l’exceptionnel patrimoine agricole disparu au cours du XXe siècle, ainsi que sur les mutations sociales, économiques et territoriales qui ont profondément bouleversé l’organisation des rapports ville-nature-agriculture. À partir des formes ordinaires de l’agglomération parisienne – grands ensembles, lotissements, zones d’activités – cette étude invite à une revalorisation des sols par les activités agricoles des fermes existantes ou à créer, et à structurer un réseau de nouvelles centralités civiques à l’échelle métropolitaine.
