Summary:
Nothing about how we live today is sustainable. Therefore, a profound paradigm shift is imminent (indeed is already underway). To paraphrase Marx and Engels, all that is solid has melted into air, all that was sacred has been profaned, and humanity is compelled to face with sober senses the real conditions of life, our relations with each other and this planet.

Summary:
L’architecture de Maurice Sauzet s’est construite en dehors, si ce n’est à rebours de la pensée moderniste. Son vocabulaire, en harmonie avec l’homme et le paysage, puise au contraire dans le registre évanescent des émotions et des perceptions ; une orientation fondatrice qu’il doit à sa découverte, très tôt dans sa carrière, de l’architecture traditionnelle japonaise et de l’esprit du bouddhisme zen. Destiné à nourrir l’inspiration des architectes d’aujourd’hui, et propre à aider de futurs habitants à clarifier leurs désirs, cet ouvrage a été pensé comme un manuel, un outil concret au service d’une conception au diapason du monde. S’appuyant sur deux réalisations, une création et une rénovation de maisons, l’auteur y livre pas à pas les principes de sa pensée et sa méthode de travail. Au centre : la prise en compte des attentes de ceux qui y vivront, l’ajustement subtil au site de construction et, par-dessus tout, la recherche directrice de « prises sensibles ».

A selection of his drawings is offered here as part of the exhibition series “Louisiana On Paper” at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. Cook believes that visions of the future – whatever it might offer – are most clearly expressed and can best be discussed in drawings. In his work we encounter kaleidoscopic colours and spiralling shapes, voluntary architectural mutations, and twisting and turning buildings transforming into escapist dreamscapes.

Summary:
''Book of ruins'' offers a survey – not encyclopedic, but substantial – of leading moments when the fact and idea of ruins were taken up by writers, travellers and artists: painters, film makers, landscape architects, and architects. Gathering together short texts and extracts that describe and reflect on ruins, dating from remote antiquity (Scipio shedding tears when viewing the destruction of Carthage) to present times (the ruins of a modern city, portrayed in the film ''Requiem for Detroit''), it provides a perspective upon what the past has meant to different cultures at different times. Following an introductory essay, the book includes 70 entries, chronologically ordered, each including an indicative image (or two), an introductory commentary by the authors, and the text itself. The texts come from designers (from Bernini through Piranesi to David Chipperfield) as well as other artists (John Piper), and from literary figures (Goethe, Wordsworth, Byron and Shelley, Hugo, and Hardy). It concludes by discussing what we do with ruins by way of preservation, conservation, adaptive reuse and appropriation, and contemporary loss and ruin, as illustrated by 9/11 and the Neues Museum and highlighting the continuing relevance of the ruin.
