Antoni Gaudi's unique naturalistic style has made him one of the most famous architects of all time. But even with that high level of reknown, the impulse behind the Catalan architect/artist s well-known works remains shrouded in mystery.

Résumé:
Antoni Gaudi's unique naturalistic style has made him one of the most famous architects of all time. But even with that high level of reknown, the impulse behind the Catalan architect/artist s well-known works remains shrouded in mystery. Eminent Dutch architectural historian Jan Molema lifts that veil through an exploration of Gaudi's transformation from architect to self-willed artist. By shedding light on Gaudi's artistic influences such as Art Nouveau, his pioneering use of organic shapes and materials, as well as his all-important structural ingenuity, we come to understand not only what made Gaudi so revolutionary but also what his many buildings mean symbolically.

AMERICA, IN AN ALLEGORICAL TIME WARP / USING PRE ELECTRONIC, PRINT AGE TECHNIQUES / WELCOMES RETURNING SPACE HEROES / TICKER TAPE PARADE DOWN FIFTH AVENUE. / ALL I WANT TO DO IS EXPAND MY MIND ...' This book brings together two books bound within a single cover: 'Ant Farm Timeline' and 'Allegorical Time Warp: The Media Fallout of July 21, 1969'. In addition, the publication includes a small dossier of archival material related to Ant Farm's Truckstop Network project (1970-72). Introduced by Chip Lord, the timeline tells the story of Ant Farm's multifaceted experimental work over 114 pages, in as many full page illustrations of original material. The 'Allegorical Time Warp' by Felicity D. Scott, focused on the period from 1969 to 1972, tracks the transformations of an architectural project articulated simultaneously in open-ended media systems and closed life-support systems. The work of Ant Farm has been an archetype for a younger generation of artist's collectives. This publication offers to be the long awaited source for the material that surviced the fire of the collective's studio in august 1978.

The Mercedes-Benz Museum makes everyone forget that they are in a museum. None of the problems that make the traditional museum less and less sustainable occur. The works around you belong to no other culture than your own. They are much closer to you and speak more clearly to you than most of today's art.

Résumé:
He was the most iconoclastic of architects, and at the height of his career his output of writings about architecture was as prolific and visionary as his architecture itself. Frank Lloyd Wright pioneered a bold new kind of architecture, one in which the spirit of modern man truly "lived in his buildings." "The Essential Frank Lloyd Wright" is a one-volume compendium of Wright's most critically important - and personally revealing - writings on every conceivable aspect of his craft. Wright was perhaps the most influential and inspired architect of the twentieth century, and this is the only book that gathers all of his most significant essays, lectures, and articles on architecture. Bruce Pfeiffer includes each piece in its entirety to present the architect's writings as he originally intended them. Beginning early in Wright's career with "The Art and Craft of the Machine" in 1901, the book follows major themes through "The Disappearing City", "The Natural House", and many other writings, and ends with "A Testament" in 1957, published two years before his death. This volume is illustrated with original drawings and photographs, and is complemented by Pfeiffer's general introduction, which provides history and context.

Résumé:
Modern Architecture is a landmark text - the first book in which this American architect put forth the principles of a fundamentally new, organic architecture that would reject the trappings of historical styles while avoiding the geometric abstraction of the machine aesthetic advocated by contemporary European modernists. One of the most important documents in the development of modern architecture and the career of Frank Lloyd Wright, "Modern Architecture" is a provocative and profound polemic against America's architectural eclecticism, commercial skyscrapers, and misguided urban planning. The book is also a work of savvy self-promotion, in which Wright not only advanced his own concept of an organic architecture but also framed it as having anticipated by decades - and bettered -what he saw as the reductive modernism of his European counterparts. Based on the 1931 original, for which Wright supplied the cover illustration, this edition includes a new introduction that puts "Modern Architecture" in its broader architectural, historical, and intellectual context for the first time. The subjects of these lively lectures -from "Machinery, Materials and Men" to "The Tyranny of the Skyscraper" and "The City" - move from a general statement of the conditions of modern culture to particular applications in the fields of architecture and urbanism at ever broadening scales. Wright's vision in "Modern Architecture" is ultimately to equate the truly modern with romanticism, imagination, beauty, and nature - all of which he connects with an underlying sense of American democratic freedom and individualism.

Des installations de maquettes de sites archéologiques ruinés, de gigantesques sculptures-écroulements, des dizaines de journaux-herbiers, des centaines d'empreintes et de photographies instaurent des fictions paradoxales qui valent à ces artistes, depuis le début des années 1970, une reconnaissance internationale. Ce livre propose un "retour" aux œuvres, afin de dissiper ambiguïtés et malentendus ayant pu laisser penser qu'Anne et Patrick Poirier s'adonnaient à la nostalgie d'un mythique passé, alors que l'axe central de leur travail est l'actualité du monde, l'affirmation post-exotique de la nécessité d'opposer l'intelligence à la violence, la culture à l'intolérance, la mémoire à l'amnésie.
