Summary:
This book is about bodies. Presenting the work of Dutch performance artist Mariken Overdijk, it explores how bodies traverse the familiar surroundings of one’s home or move along the familiar routes of everyday life, but also the relation of bodies to public space. On another level, the book also addresses how artistic research recounts the experiments and experiences, collections and vistas gained by the researcher during the course of their work. It shows that any good (artistic) research also creates futures. Overdijk makes clear that artworks are not singular events, but each creates a possibility that, however minimal, changes lives forever. Foreword by Jeroen Boomgaard.

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.

Pursuing these lines of inquiry, "Party studies, Vol. 2" comprises essays, documentation and poetic notes on nonnormative modes of being-in-common. Continuing from Volume 1 on the topics of home gatherings and house parties, the second volume elaborates understandings of the party by considering the hidden, the invisible and the underground as material and imaginary forces, where partying is not only festive, but manifests in forms of social and political organizing, cultural and subcultural conversation, the maintenance of safe spaces and the building of parallel structures against established institutional forms.

In an ever-changing arrangement of pictures, Barragán’s thinking was made visual. Because it was a personal archive from which the architect simply added or removed images over time, the 170 currently registered pictures are all that can provide us today with a kaleidoscopic insight into Barragán’s mind, itself a myriad network of personal relationships, professional influences, and formal obsessions. The publication is the manifestation of a project by Roger Willems and Mark Manders.

While it’s important for the structure to reflect the vision and style of the architect, the client must ultimately feel at home beneath the roof. It is particularly interesting, therefore, to examine the homes that architects create for themselves. If houses reflect their owners’ personalities, then architects’ own homes are like autobiographies. Location, layout, style, lighting, artwork, furnishings - every detail adds color to the story. Each of these 100 dwellings, presented A-Z by architect, speaks more about its designer than any other building possibly could.
