Résumé:
After studying at the Architectural Association in London, John Godwin and Gillian Hopwood moved to Nigeria, where they significantly shaped the country's architectural landscape for more than sixty years. When Nigeria became independent in 1960 following British dominance since the 19th century, the couple worked to create architecture that was site-specific, modern, and adapted to the climate relevant to Nigeria's aspirational political and economic policies. In this illustrated monograph, organised by typology, Ben Tosland examines Godwin and Hopwood's form of tropical modernism and illuminates its contemporary meanings and concluding with its relevance in times of the climate crisis.

Résumé:
Architect Frida Escobedo’s (b. 1979) designs for public spaces have received global accolades. In 2022, she was commissioned to design the new Oscar L. Tang and H.M. Agnes Hsu-Tang Wing for Modern and Contemporary Art at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Suspended Moment is the first overall survey of her career to-date including her award-winning structures that treat space as a language—layered, responsive, and reflective of both a site’s history and its present. This timely profile of the first woman to design a wing at the Museum explores Escobedo’s attention to gender, accessibility, and the environment. Focusing on both temporary and permanent structures in the context of her burgeoning career, the publication delves into Escobedo’s two-decade multimedia practice. Interviews with the architect alongside informed essays discuss the bases of her work and her diverse inspirations, ranging from concrete poetry to her hometown of Mexico City, which she describes as a "modern metropolis with ancient roots . . . in other words, a living, breathing museum."

Résumé:
Across a vast span of human history, in our expanding and evolving capacities for both construction and reverence, there has been an interplay between biomorphic and geometric form related to situating ourselves on a cosmic spectrum. Sotirios Kotoulas is an architect immersed in the possibility of these forms, and the materials that render them. In his practice, symbolic shapes, materials, and colors can channel energy, and electromagnetic forces can be tuned and transmitted. In turn, these dynamisms can be mapped, be traced, and become form generators on their own. Sotirios approaches these concerns from multiple angles simultaneously, from conceptual exploration to the assembly of viable structures. As an Artist-in-residence at Dartmouth, he's delved deeper into two projects on this spectrum.

Ce qui est livré se patine, puis s'érode, dès le ruban rouge coupé; ces pertes sont irrémédiables. Le projet déplace les réalités, les fait changer de formes, amenant à concéder un certain nombre de deuils. Certains sont d'ordre individuel, d'autres sont collectifs. Cette condition de l'architecte générateur de pertes est intemporelle. Cependant, elle se conscientise de manière plus aiguë à l'ère de l'Anthropocène où l'idée de table rase est battue en brèche.

Il a notamment marqué l'architecture des aérogares au cours de sa longue carrière au sein d'Aéroports de Paris, avec l'emblématique aéroport de Roissy 1, puis Roissy 2, mais aussi avec sa production en Asie, au Japon et en Chine, où il fut l'un des premiers Français à s'imposer, que ce soit avec l'aéroport de Kansai, en 1988, ou encore l'opéra de Pékin, inauguré en 2007. Fondée sur une exigence constante de fonctionnalité et de rationalité technique, l'oeuvre de cet architecte et ingénieur est ancrée sur la notion de seuil, de passage et de transformation, qui met en jeu des principes fondamentaux : la terre et le ciel, l'Orient et l'Occident, la pensée et la matière. A travers ses recherches sur l'espace et le temps, la croissance organique, les ombres et les lumières, l'immobilité et le mouvement, Paul Andreu semble poursuivre une recherche essentielle sur la question de l'envol, du corps et de l'esprit, qu'il soit physique, symbolique ou poétique.

Résumé:
The second installment in the Dongola Architecture Series, dedicated to the great voices of contemporary architecture in the Arab culture, delves into the life and work of the distinguished Syrian architect and architecture historian Nasser Rabbat. This publication underscores the profound connection between Rabbat's upbringing in Syria during a period of significant political transformation and his development as a critical thinker and storyteller. His journey from a reluctant choice to study architecture to becoming a prominent figure as the Director of the Aga Khan Program for Islamic Architecture at MIT illustrates his unceasing commitment to expanding the horizons of historiography, particularly within the realm of non-Western voices. "Nasser Rabbat : Critical encounters" seeks to deepen our understanding of the urgency of history to enable the possibilities of questioning and reimagining dominant powers. Professor Rabbat's work presents a compelling account within the broader context of Arab thinkers actively reshaping their region's narrative and pushing for a more inclusive and diverse historical perspective.
