In an evocative montage of words and pictures she emphasizes that ''sight" and "site" but also ''motion" and "emotion'' are irrevocably connected. In so doing, she touches on the art of Gerhard Richter and Annette Messagem: the film-making of Peter Greenaway and Michaelangelo Antonioni; the origins of the movie palace and its precursors, and on her own journeys to her native Naples. Visually luscious and daring in conception, Bruno opens new vistas and understandings at every turn.

Summary:
Across the world, the housing crisis is escalating. Mass migration to cities has led to rapid urbanisation on an unprecedented scale, while the withdrawal of public funding from social housing provision in Western countries, and widening income inequality, have further compounded the situation. In response to this context, forward-thinking architects are taking the lead with a collaborative approach. By partnering with allied fields, working with residents, developing new forms of housing, and leveraging new funding systems and policies, they are providing strategic leadership for what many consider to be our cities’ most pressing crisis. Amidst growing economic and health disparities, this issue of AD asks how housing projects, and the design processes behind them, might be interventions towards greater social equity, and how collaborative work in housing might reposition the architectural profession at large.

Ces modernes, auxquels se joindront Pierre Chareau, Eileen Gray, Le Corbusier, les frères Martel, Charlotte Perriand, Jean Prouvé et bien d'autres, militent pour un art fonctionnaliste, sans ornement, destiné au plus grand nombre. Ils auraient tourné le dos aux Décorateurs et à l'artisanat de luxe, incarné par l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes de 1925, pour créer un mouvement en phase avec les besoins de leur époque.
