Résumé:
he link between architecture and art and the sublimity it can create has a history that stretches back millennia. From cave paintings to the stained glass and saintly icons in churches and cathedrals, to the geometric and calligraphic treatments of mosques and contemporary artists channelling architecture and vice versa, and so much else. This AD is about the contemporary interactions between living artists and architects, and the artistic practices, such as poetry and abstractions, that architects adopt to develop ideas for their projects. The issue features artists, architects, curators, musicians, poets and designer craftspeople, illustrating the current rich mix of architectonic constructions, interventions and set pieces that range from musical performance to exhibition designs, glass works and digital 3D scanning. It lays out the wide spectrum and beauty of these sublime correspondences, with contributions from architects about their own artistic practices, and creative works viewed through the eyes of architectural commentators. An explosion of colour, form and creative tactics for making multifaceted work that above all is architectural, it offers a cornucopia of possibilities.

Résumé:
This book is a sub-urbanist manifesto. Its author, Sébastien Marot, challenges the dominant role of the programme in regulating the design project, and argues that instead attention should be redirected towards the site – the site read in depth, with an active regard for memory. Exploring this analysis, he considers in turn Frances Yates’ book ''The Art of Memory'', Sigmund Freud’s analogy between the past of a city and the workings of memory, Robert Smithson’s account of a tour of his suburban birthplace and Georges Descombes’ design for a small park in the Geneva suburb where he spent his childhood. Marot’s conclusion brings these different strands together and highlights, in memory, a precept that is essential to the renewal of current architecture. This AA Documents publication is a re-edition of Sébastien Marot’s Sub-Urbanism and the Art of Memory, originally edited by Pamela Johnston and published by AA Publications in 2003. It is based on a 1999 text by Marot, translated from the French by Brian Holmes.

Résumé:
Dans ce court essai, l’auteur pose les bases d’une hypothèse conceptuelle : Tous constituent des architectures qui mettent en jeu nos manières de faire (en-)commun. En interpellant différentes références théoriques qui permettent de revisiter notre conception de l’architecture comme objet et activité, il nous invite à (re-)penser des pratiques de recherche et de création qui se veulent en prise avec le réel, assumant leur volonté de faire contre, tout contre l’Architecture et les appareils idéologiques qui la constituent. Ces prolégomènes critiques et éthiques posent les bases d’un chantier de recherche visant à analyser certaines formes et activités contemporaines qui, par les reconfigurations spatiales et politiques qu’elles expérimentent, font exister d’autres manières de résister et d’habiter.
