Summary:
The uncertain state of Europe is the primary concern of Multiplicity : a multidisciplinary group of Europeans architects, photographers, urban developers and artists who met to explore and develop a series of studies focusing on contemporary European cities and their ongoing changes. The group uses on-site investigations, documented with beautiful photographs by Francesco Jodice and Gabriele Basilico, to illustrate the radical and dramatic changes occurring on European land and in its cities. Traditional spaces are slowly, yet forcefully, transforming due to the constant economic, political, and social upheavals and alterations. With an introduction by prominent political and intellectual figures such as Etienne Balibar, Rem Koolhas and Jeremy Rifkin, this volume analyses 24 cases of urban transformation. The cases cover geographical locations from Paris to Pristina, Helsinki to Bucharest, and show the extraordinary riches a modern city can offer while, at the same time, highlighting the abnormal spaces created by the existence of a so-called secondary world. The final section is dedicated to a series of ideas which view Europe as a single entity : a network of relations, trade, encounters, migration, transportation, construction, and offers an absolutely novel view of the ‘old’ world. Richly illustrated, this tome includes passages by architectural critics such as Stefano Boeri, Yorgos Semiforidis, Eduard Bru, Bart Lootsma.

Summary:
In the mid 1960s Aldo Rossi launched what in retrospect appears a heroic endeavour: a redefinition of architecture founded in the knowledge of the rules and forms that constitute "the European city". Understanding this type of city as a collective artefact, Rossi sought to lead architecture out of the impasse created by a technocratic interpretation of functionalism after World War II. Tendenza, with Aldo Rossi and Giorgio Grassi as its main protagonists, proposed the study of existing cities as architectural phenomena, intending to identify enduring formal patterns that could be reworked into elements of a new design. In this issue of "OASE" these ideas and their bearings on architectural practice are traced through the work of Carel Weeber, arguably the most controversial and successful architect to adopt the Italian ideas and transform them in the Dutch context. This issue will examine the relevance of the experience of Tendenza now, against the background of the almost complete erosion of the urban nature of much of suburbanized Europe. Is the reference to "the European city" still tenable? The transformation of these ideas and design solutions in Holland allows us to gauge their effect on the architectural discipline and their contribution to rethinking existing cities.
