Summary:
Kwai Shing West Estate is a residential complex in Hong Kong that is home to 18,000 people. It attracted the attention of filmmaker and photographer Pascal Greco because of its architecture and its atypical hillside construction. This book presents Greco’s ten-year investigation into the complex, during which he captured his strange fascination through both photography and film: walls, staircases, cables, pipes, neon lights, and not a soul to be seen. And yet, discreetly, life pulsates. Together with musician Lea Bertucci he produced an immersive audio-visual work, a tribute to the sometimes strange architecture of public housing but also to the loneliness experienced in such complexes.

Pour sa 11e édition, Manif d'art – La biennale de Québec s’est inspirée de l’hiver et du sommeil de la terre pour s’intéresser à celui des humains et explorer les nuances multiples de l’éveil. Moments de latence, de transition, de pause, la saison froide et le sommeil ont en commun de suspendre la productivité, et de résister aux principes de l’exploitation des corps et des ressources. De ces alternances quotidiennes ou saisonnières, où les différentes espèces et leur environnement peuvent entrer en correspondance, dépendent la régénération du vivant, et aussi l’écoute, l’attention portée à la connaissance de soi et aux interactions avec d’autres formes de vie. Parce qu’il libère des forces intérieures incontrôlées et parfois décisives, parce qu’il altère nos réflexes et modifie nos perceptions, le sommeil a la capacité de modifier notre appréhension du monde.

Summary:
A significant part of the work of artistic researcher Martin Tscholl (DE) involves walking through meadows, forests, and mountains. Here, he encounters a web of interconnections that extends far beyond the realm of humans. This web is inhabited by a wide variety of organisms, materials, and processes that are mutually dependent and in permanent change. By actively looking out for these other beings located in the margins of our phenomenal perception, a correspondence between the human and the non-human spheres starts to unfold. In this process, positions emerge in which the apparent opposites of the rational and irrational, life and non-life, art and nature, converge. Tscholl’s photography allows us to recognise the silent fragments of nature as being different from us, but also as originating from the same ontological ground. The many mystical objects in this book seem like they could come to life at any moment, giving us a warm sense of connection.

Summary:
"At last the mighty task is done; Resplendent in the western sun" These are the first lines of a poem by Joseph B. Strauss, Chief Engineer of the Golden Gate Bridge. Acknowledged as one of the most phenomenal architectural and natural monuments in the world, the iconic orange bridge spans the one-mile-wide strait connecting San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. From the opening in 1937 until this day forward, the overpass has been photographed and illustrated immeasurable times, mystifying an achievement no one ever considered possible. Every year forty million vehicles travel between the orange cables, welcoming visitors from around the world. With "The bridge" Michael Yuan (CA) paints an intimate portrait of the Golden Gate Bridge, a challenge towards the well-known perspectives of the monument, often observed in its mind-blowing entirety and completeness. The bridge in all its characteristic faces that have never been presented before. A study of its form, lines, shapes and distinctive colour: the imposing towers, stylised street lamps, gigantic cables, bolts, plates – each with their own distinctive geometry and shape, colour, sound and light.

Summary:
The aftermath of the Covid restrictions, mental problems, being confronted with the influx of people with a different background and culture, the alienation of ourselves and of others, not being able to relate to other people; these can all cause deep feelings of loneliness. What is loneliness, as different from solitude? Whereas solitude is a chosen condition that refrains from social relations, loneliness suffers from the lack of these. The three essays in this book each explore a side of loneliness, strongly connected to the encounter with the other. South-African psychologist Wahbie Long lays out what kind of relationships to the outside world emerge from childhood experiences of playing and relating to others. French philosopher Marie-José Mondzain uses the metaphor of architecture with its terms as threshold, doors, walls, windows, a bench in front of the frontal wall; elements that construct '‘home'', the architectural and emotional place where encounters can happen, where ‘'strangers'’ should be welcomed and trusted. French psychoanalyst Lysiane Lamantowicz discusses a form of loneliness that we see all around us: the consequences of social networks on the internet.

Summary:
The construction of domestic privacy has been a gradual process which has transformed the physical space. Perceptions of self and our relationship with the exterior have also shifted. The house is a protected environment which facilitates tranquillity, privacy, withdrawal, and concentration, away from the public realm. Finding thresholds to develop communication in the intermediate space, not entirely public but in fact a shared place of social encounters, remains a key issue for architects today. With contributions by Stephen Bates, Javier Mozas, and Aurora Fernádez, this volume dedicates itself to examining strategies in how privacy can be built in the collective housing environment.
