Summary:
To stop. A gesture of resistance in a world primarily designed to encourage work, consumerism, perpetual growth and efficiency. Stopping as an urban practice. In cities where pauses and idleness within specific sites are increasingly discouraged, stopping emerges as a space of rupture, pleasure, intimacy, or simply necessity and rest.

In cities where pauses and idleness within specific sites are increasingly discouraged, stopping emerges as a space of rupture, pleasure, intimacy, or simply necessity and rest. In a project begun in 2015 in Mexico City and further developed in Montreal in 2017, Jean-François Prost explores these realities for their contrasts with the incessant movement of people and related structures in contemporary cities where sometimes even self-constructions of time and space are forbidden.

Au croisement des arts, l'œuvre de Carmelo Bene – acteur, auteur et metteur en scène, pour le théâtre, le cinéma et la télévision, mais aussi romancier et poète – remet systématiquement en question le langage artistique avec lequel il s'exprime. Ni captations de spectacles théâtraux, ni adaptations cinématographiques, ses réalisations pour le petit écran explorent les possibilités techniques et esthétiques offertes par le médium télévisé. Ce volume réunit deux entretiens, respectivement avec les critiques Italo Moscati et Maurizio Grande, publiés au moment de la diffusion du Hamlet télévisé de Carmelo Bene (1978). L'artiste y expose sa méthode de travail et ses idées sur la télévision, ce « médium innocent aux possibilités puissantes, inexplorées ». Relues à l'ère d'Internet, ses réflexions invitent à penser les liens entre spectacle vivant et petit(s) écran(s), mais aussi entre nouveautés technologiques et recherche esthétique, entre avant-gardisme artistique et diffusion de masse.

While his early buildings in Pomerania were still strongly marked by his teacher Peter Behrens, after an expressionistic phase focused on handicraft, he ultimately arrived at geometric abstraction.

Summary:
As founder of the Bauhaus school, Walter Gropius (1883?1969) is one of the icons of 20th century architecture. While his early buildings in Pomerania were still strongly marked by his teacher Peter Behrens, after an expressionistic phase focused on handicraft, he ultimately arrived at geometric abstraction. During the entire period he collaborated with other architects, founding the collective known as "The Architects Collaborative" in the US. The comprehensive monograph documents all 74 of the known buildings by Gropius that were realized, including many early works which he never publicized; but it also critically examines his unbuilt projects. The book is illustrated with new photographs by the author, historical figures, and with as new plans drawn by the author.

The Fondation Louis Vuitton by Frank O. Gehry rises from the Bois de Boulogne as a new landmark in the Parisian skyline. Gehry's dynamic architecture is both glittering and multifaceted: is it a sailing vessel, an iceberg, or a sea monster? It fascinates with its wealth of references and, at the same time, escapes any clear-cut definition. Three outstanding(...)

Gehry's dynamic architecture is both glittering and multifaceted: is it a sailing vessel, an iceberg, or a sea monster? It fascinates with its wealth of references and, at the same time, escapes any clear-cut definition. Three outstanding representatives of different generations of art history, James S. Ackerman, Irving Lavin, and Horst Bredekamp have together paid a visit to the Fondation Louis Vuitton. They explore the building in three essays that try to fathom the floating architecture of the "magician" Gehry in the context of both art and architectural history.

What remains of his work? What has disappeared? How does the fabric of buildings change over time? Stefan Olah has taken up the trail in search of the architect's work. As architectural photographer he captures current details of buildings-many years after their construction: close-ups serve to illustrate the architect's design approach. The precision of the large color photographs corresponds to Schwanzer's clever designs. The book is intended as a visual commentary on his creative designs, which include buildings and furniture.

Summary:
Nature has always been a source of inspiration for the design of the human environment. The analysis of biological constructions can not only lead to astonishing technical solutions but can also inspire the design of architecture. Bionics is a fascinating border area between pure research and practical application: biologists, chemists, physicists, mineralogists, and paleontologists meet up with material scientists, engineers, and architects and transfer their knowledge to architecture and construction. Using numerous practical examples, this illustrated introduction traces the process from the understanding of how something functions, to abstraction- ?for example, in computer models- ?and the construction of initial prototypes, through to fully functional manufacture and production.
