Résumé:
This book is about the "public realm," defined as a particular kind of social territory that is found almost exclusively in large settlements. This particular form of social-psychological space comes into being whenever a piece of actual physical space is dominated by relationships between and among persons who are strangers to one another, as often occurs in urban bars, buses, plazas, parks, coffee houses, streets, and so forth. More specifically, the book is about the social life that occurs in such social-psychological space and the forces that threaten it.

Résumé:
" Unboxed : engagements in social space " is a collection of critical essays about and by artists who work across the borders of art, architecture and performance. This collection is loosely based upon the lecture series that Gallery 101 and the Carleton University School of Architecture co-hosted throughout the fall and winter of 2002-2003. The goal of that series (entitled "unboxed : dialogues on art & architecture") was, in part, to engage both architecture students and practicing visual artists with this vital yet under-explored arena of interstitial practices. The anthology, which is an attempt to further broaden the audience for this work and thereby increase the number of potential participants, includes transcriptions of lectures by international artists : Vito Acconci, Lucy Orta, Jan-Erik Andersson and Marko Peljhan, as well as commissioned essays by Canadian artists: Ana Rewakowicz, Eduardo Aquino, Marie-Paule Macdonald, Jean-François Prost, Luc Lévesque, Steve Topping, and Adrian Blackwell. Each text adds a mode of thinking about notions of space; directing us to consider the local and social connections between individuals and environments and, in their variety, they mirror the various ways we move in and around communities, rural and urban. Together, forming a challenging, engaging and accessible anthology that enlightens our way of seeing and our sense of being. It provides rare and exceptional information on interdisciplinary practices for students in art and architecture departments everywhere.

Résumé:
Between the years 1950 and 1972, when Paris was in the twilight of its classical period, pilot and photographer Roger Henrard preserved the city he knew and loved from the seat of a single-engine American army surplus Piper Cub. Henrard used a high-speed plate camera to systematically document the city from its outskirts to its centre. His photographs show not only Paris's stations, museums, department stores, and housing projects but also its urban fabric and interconnections - the tightly knit medieval districts as well as the rectilinear geometry of the Haussmanian boulevards. "Above Paris" is Henrard's study of the urban landscape of Paris and its best-known monuments. Images, grouped by themes such as the course of the Seine, the main roads, the stations, and the neighborhoods of Paris give a clear overview of the city's layout. Maps at the beginning of each chapter orient the reader.

Résumé:
Un autre point de vue, un nouveau type de regard s'avèrent nécessaire afin d'apprivoiser la grande ville contemporaine. Tout regard présuppose un sujet. La ville idéale de la Renaissance était inséparable de cet homme générique, animal doué de raison, microcosme ordonnateur, dont la perspective cherchait à codifier la vision. Dans cet essai, le cyborg tient un rôle comparable, s'agissant cette fois d'explorer les complexités de la ville territoire d'aujourd'hui. Hybride d'homme et de machine, individu parfait parce que rendu pleinement autonome par la technologie, le cyborg est bien sûr une fiction. Cette fiction n'en permet pas moins d'analyser des aspects essentiels de la grande ville d'aujourd'hui, de son étrange parenté avec l'univers des jeux électroniques au rôle qu'y tiennent les réseaux avant de se pencher sur son architecture.

Résumé:
Aldo Rossi, a practicing architect and leader of the Italian architectural movement La Tendenza, is also one of the most influential theorists writing today. The Architecture of the City is his major work of architectural and urban theory. In part a protest against functionalism and the Modern Movement, in part an attempt to restore the craft of architecture to its position as the only valid object of architectural study, and in part an analysis of the rules and forms of the city's construction, the book has become immensely popular among architects and design students.

This book is a critical reappraisal of contemporary theories of urban planning and design and of the role of the architect-planner in an urban context. The authors rejecting the grand utopian visions of "total planning" and "total design," propose instead a "collage city" which can accommodate a whole range of utopias in miniature.
