Summary:
L’acte d’habiter se réalise au quotidien par de multiples interactions entre l’individu et son environnement. Il implique des arbitrages liés à la recherche permanente d’un équilibre entre des éléments qui a priori s’opposent : l’intérieur et l’extérieur, le bâti et la nature, le public et le privé, le visible et l’intime, l’individuel et le collectif. Dans ses diverses(...)

Summary:
L’acte d’habiter se réalise au quotidien par de multiples interactions entre l’individu et son environnement. Il implique des arbitrages liés à la recherche permanente d’un équilibre entre des éléments qui a priori s’opposent : l’intérieur et l’extérieur, le bâti et la nature, le public et le privé, le visible et l’intime, l’individuel et le collectif. Dans ses diverses formes, l’espace intermédiaire — l’entre-deux — est l’élément clef de ces compromis. Une étude menée dans plusieurs ensembles de logements illustre l’importance de l’entre-deux dans l’affirmation d’une architecture de relation. Sa conception et ses usages permettent de dépasser la simple fonction spatiale et en fait un espace signifiant. L’entre-deux devient le fil rouge du processus de production de l’habitat : de la programmation au vécu, il est la traduction formelle d’un système de valeurs partagé par l’ensemble des acteurs. Si l’entre-deux a souvent été un élément de réponse stratégique dans la création de logements, désormais, face aux défis contemporains, tels que la sobriété foncière ou la gestion des ressources, il garde plus que jamais son efficience : un gage de qualité au service d’une vision renouvelée de l’habitat, où l’architecture contribue à faire société autrement.

Summary:
"Feminism, pedagogy, and the studio: Reflections across four decades" brings together two lectures delivered by Griselda Pollock in 1985 and 2022. In 1985, Griselda Pollock critically examined the gender politics of twentieth-century art education that, she argued, reinforced masculinist and individualist ideologies within capitalist conditions of artistic production. She linked the cult of authorship to the nonrecognition of women as artists, even in the face of the evidence of women's considerable participation in modern art. She explored the impact of a critical post-modern and feminist artistic engagement with theories of meaning, subjectivity, and the image drawn from outside the "studio" model. She ultimately proposed "feminist interventions in art's histories," where expanded histories— including race, class, gender, and sexuality—challenge both the monographic-all-male model of the hero artist and the hegemony of formalist art theory.

Summary:
Grounded in empirical research, 'Alternative pedagogical spaces: From utopia to institutionalization' is a critical inquiry into the establishment, development, and transformation of alternative pedagogical and social spaces. Written by Anna Colin, a former director and co-founder of Open School East, an independent art school and community space founded in London in 2013, this essay-length book explores the instituting factors, organizational life cycles, and alignments and misalignments between values and practices that permeate such a project. The essay delves into the qualities and prerequisites for what Colin calls "multi-public educational organizations." It also scrutinizes the hurdles associated with the effort to remain alternative, including processes of habituation, temptation or pressure to scale up, ethos-bending fundraising exercises, and long tenure, as well as the plain desire for stability and sustainability.

Summary:
Recent years have seen significant changes in architectural practice, where digital technology is widespread and commonplace – a condition referred to as “post-digital”.

This issue features research and education institutions where such explorations are being actively pursued: Southern California Institute of Architecture in Los Angeles, Bartlett School of Architecture at University College London, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. It introduces pioneering projects that push the boundaries in their respective fields, redefining architecture within the post-digital context.

I had shot several rolls of film with the old Leica M4 camera passed on to me by my father. At that time I was an undergraduate student at Stirling University. Soon after that my life became all about parenthood and a full-time career in social work. So the negatives from my 1970’s adventures went into storage, occasionally dragged around house moves in Scotland, but mainly forgotten for over four decades..." Heidi Alexander
