Summary:
Paul Tournon (1881-1964) a été un protagoniste de l’architecture française du XXe siècle. Il a réalisé des pavillons d’exposition, des groupes scolaires ou hospitaliers, des immeubles d’habitation, des usines, des banques, des monastères ainsi que de nombreuses églises importantes à Paris et dans les colonies (Saint-Esprit à Paris, l’église de Villemomble, celle d’Elisabethville, la cathédrale de Casablanca, etc.). Toutefois, malgré les projets prestigieux et considérables qui lui ont été confiés, Tournon suit le destin plus général de l’architecture traditionaliste à laquelle il appartient : son nom est, effectivement, presqu’inconnu et son œuvre est pratiquement absente des grandes synthèses historiographiques de l’architecture contemporaine. Cette étude se propose de rendre une place adéquate au personnage de Paul Tournon au sein d’un cadre interprétatif exempt de tout prévention idéologique mais tenant compte des catégories idéales d’art et de valeur auxquelles Tournon était lui-même attentif. Moderniste " sage ", prudent et mesuré, guidé par une foi religieuse profonde, Paul Tournon incarne parfaitement esprit de son temps comme cas emblématique de l’union entre les valeurs de la tradition et l’acceptation des ressources offertes par la modernité qui caractérise une bonne part de la culture architecturale traditionaliste.

Summary:
Entre le XVIe et le XVIIIe siècle, la région de Milan connaît une intense période d’art et d’architecture qui se manifeste à travers des villas : on voit éclore en effet un nombre important de résidences réalisées par une aristocratie éclairée. Aboutissement des activités productives du territoire, les villas étaient une synthèse d’exigences économiques, expressives et symboliques, mais définissaient également un style de vie et une vision du monde : une philosophie du “vivre sain” en contact avec la nature, au milieu des études et des plaisirs tournés vers un otium foisonnant. Les “ville di delizia” (nous devons cette appellation du XVIIIe siècle à Marc’Antonio Dal Re et à Pietro Verri) représentent un phénomène marquant de l’histoire de l’architecture et de la décoration et, plus généralement, de l’histoire de la culture et du goût : le patriciat de la grande ville lombarde (sans seigneur et sans cour) a souhaité projeter ses propres attentes et se célébrer lui-même dans ces villas.

The words we use when we talk and write about architecture describe more than just bricks and mortar—they direct the ways we think of and live with buildings. This groundbreaking book is the first thorough examination of the complex relationship between architecture and language as intricate social practices. Six rigorously argued chapters and a vocabulary of key terms investigate the language of modernism; language and drawing; “masculine and feminine” architecture; language metaphors; science in architecture; and the social properties of architecture.

Then why do so many student portfolios reflect poor typographic skill? In a singular effort to raise the bar on type education, designer and teacher Steven Heller reached out to type-devoted educators across the United States. Drawing from hundreds of hours of collective teaching experience, they distilled proposals and working concepts that make for challenging courses without inflating the students’ schedules. In "The Education of a Typographer", editor Heller presents forty-one approaches to laying the foundation for typographic fluency.

Few topics in the visual arts have created such controversy recently as the debate surrounding the significance and potential of public art. In response to this, "Public Art" was published in a bilingual edition and quickly sold out. The book has now been republished in separate language editions. In this handbook, over fifty authors take a critical look at the subject of public art: the result is a fascinating compendium of opinions and statements, experiences and reports. The wide-ranging material by curators, art historians, and artists is divided into "Art and the City", "Art and Architecture", "Art and History", "Art and Society", "Art and the Exhibition", and "Art and the Public". Contributors include Vito Acconci, Daniel Buren, Dan Graham, Walter Grasskamp, Hans Haacke, Ilya Kabakov, Kasper König, Joseph Kosuth, Florian Matzner, Ulrich Rückriem, Lawrence Weiner among many others.
