Summary:
In this electrifying showcase of Max Dudler's power stations, Energy Buildings traces the public works constructions of a man who has mastered the architectural square. Credited as one of the formative minds behind the New Berlin, Dudler's residential work at Gendarmenmarkt, and his transformer substation at Lutzoplatz, reveal cubes that are based in a rational architectural evaluation of what is absolutely necessary. Four walls. No frills. As evidenced in the 22 plans included in Energy Buildings, Dudler's core strength is his conceptual backbone, where projects for Vattenfall Europe AG begin as drawings on a page. Beginning with his work for Bewag in the late 80s, the book crisply describes the rise of an architect of the new Germany, a place where an architectural idea is only as strong as the gracefulness of its execution.In this electrifying showcase of Max Dudler's power stations, Energy Buildings traces the public works constructions of a man who has mastered the architectural square.

Summary:
During a three-month residency in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, Japanese-born, London-based artist and filmmaker Naoko Takahashi confronted the issues of dislocation, mistranslation and gender politics in the Arab world. In this chapbook, written in the style of a factual report, she takes the reader on a breathless journey through the air-conditioned rooms and arid streets of the modern Arab metropolis, where she feels that every move she makes is misread and that her identity is repeatedly forced upon her and manipulated in ways she cannot control. Takahashi’s work highlights the ambiguities and confusions of identities as played out through language in a multi-cultural, multi-lingual society. Moving from confusion and isolation to anger in the course of the book, she casts her experiences as a modern allegory of alienation. Part of Book Works Chapbook Series.

Each project is an artwork or a combination of artworks, developed in response to one of the questions. Of all the questions ‘Has Man A Function In Universe?’ may be the key that binds and directs all of the other questions. Gavin Wade has commissioned artists and writers to respond to this question using a combination of text and image. The publication will reflect the process of the project—an ‘exquisite corpse’ involving collaboration, dissemination and the combining of works.

From Sebastiano Serlio to Rem Koolhaas, architects have used the metaphor of theater, presenting the city as stage, a comic set for comic acts, delirious city for delirious subjects, generic city for generic subjects, and so on. Today, however, we are social anywhere, actors onstage and off. So what(...)

Cities structure our lives, resources, interactions, and identities. From Sebastiano Serlio to Rem Koolhaas, architects have used the metaphor of theater, presenting the city as stage, a comic set for comic acts, delirious city for delirious subjects, generic city for generic subjects, and so on. Today, however, we are social anywhere, actors onstage and off. So what happens when the city no longer structures us, or when basic urban elements—streets, buildings, facades, and addresses—have been augmented, superimposed, and untethered by or replaced through technology? First presented at the 2016 Venice Architecture Biennale, A Situation Constructed from Loose and Overlapping Social and Architectural Aggregates is a playful investigation into urban alternatives. Employing neither the holistic worldview of mapping nor the isolated islands of architectural typology, MOS imagines a proposal where the city is everywhere.…
