With this book, author Henry Petroski delves into the ongoing physical interaction between people and things that enables them to stay put or causes them to move.

Résumé:
With this book, author Henry Petroski delves into the ongoing physical interaction between people and things that enables them to stay put or causes them to move. He explores the range of daily human experience whereby we feel the sensations of push and pull, resistance and assistance. The book is also about metaphorical force, which manifests itself as pressure and relief, achievement and defeat. Petroski draws from a variety of disciplines to make the case that force—represented especially by our sense of touch—is a unifying principle that pervades our lives. In the wake of a prolonged global pandemic that increasingly cautioned us about contact with the physical world, Petroski offers a new perspective on the importance of the sensation and power of touch.

In Sonic Somatic, the sound artist and theorist Christof Migone looks at sound art's overlap with other disciplines through its particular uses of articulation. Articulation is explored here in all of its guises: its negation as silence, its interruption in stuttering and its somatic ramifications in the human body.

Résumé:
In Sonic Somatic, the sound artist and theorist Christof Migone looks at sound art's overlap with other disciplines through its particular uses of articulation. Articulation is explored here in all of its guises: its negation as silence, its interruption in stuttering and its somatic ramifications in the human body. Migone looks at French playwright and poet Antonin Artaud's writings, with their implications of strangled speech and glossolalia; American composer Alvin Lucier's groundbreaking 1969 recording “I Am Sitting in a Room”; Erik Satie's looped composition “Vexations”; Marina Abramovic's confrontational performance “Rhythm 0”; Adrian Piper's “Untitled Performance for Max's Kansas City”; Herman Melville's short story “Bartleby, the Scrivener”; Bob Connolly and Robin Anderson's documentary film First Contact; and of course the work that most looms over this topic: John Cage's paradigm-shifting 1952 composition “4'33” .”

J’y retrouve une « image du monde » qui était, et est encore, la mienne depuis les années 60 du siècle passé. Elle est parallèle à la découverte, en tant qu’architecte, que le comportement des gens, dans leur manière d’habiter (et de concevoir) la maison qu’ils auraient préférée, est « erratique », imprévisible et informulable.» Et c'est cette erraticité qui sert de modèle à une vie menée « sans entraves ».

Lorsqu'ils sont architectes, les auteurs produisent davantage des livres de recettes autobiographiques que des essais de réflexion théorique. Le statut de Rémy Butler est donc assez atypique. Son questionnement, développé pendant des décennies au contact de générations d'élèves, est alimenté par une ample connaissance de la pratique. Sa méthode, originale, consiste à interroger quelques termes constamment utilisés pour la qualifier : échelle, rythme, ornement, composition... pour dessiner la valeur symbolique de l'architecture, de Vitruve à nos jours. Humaniste, la réflexion, nourrie par des ouvrages de tous bords, s'échafaude au moyen de multiples références qui décloisonnent le champ de la réflexion architecturale classique.

Résumé:
With the perspective of a walker moving through a fluid landscape of neighbourhoods and eras, Sherry Simon experiences Montreal as a voyage across languages. She traces an evocative history of literary passages across familiar sites - the mythical boulevard Saint-Laurent, Mile End, Mont Royal - as she follows adventurous cultural translators such as Malcolm Reid, A.M. Klein, and Pierre Anctil and contemporary writer-translators such as Gail Scott, Erin Moure, Jacques Brault, Nicole Brossard, and Emile Ollivier. Simon argues that translation is a dynamic and subtle tool for analysing cultural contact. An original view of cultural relations in the city, Translating Montreal explores the emergence of the "new" Montrealer. No longer "Franco-Québécois," "Anglo-Québécois," "immigrant," or "ethnic," the new Montrealer is a citizen of a mixed and cosmopolitan city.

These pictures are some of the earliest documentation of an emerging art form, and are an under-recognized body of work from Matta-Clark—an artist who used the city’s crumbling infrastructure to reveal the social and political implications of architecture and urban design. This publication features every frame from every roll of film Matta-Clark shot, organized according to the sequence of contact sheets in the artist’s archive. Taken together, these pictures demonstrate Matta-Clark’s obsession with the gra?ti that had exploded across the city’s walls, subways, and buses, and show him growing bolder as he moved from photographing on the streets and subway platforms, to trespassing in outer borough train yards.

Résumé:
André Kertész (1894–1985) was one of the most inventive, influential, and prolific photographers in the medium's history. His combination of Modernist vision and poetic wit defined a vocabulary that generations of photographers have continued to use. Kertész's iconic images of 1920s Paris, such as "Chez Mondrian" and "Satiric dancer" and his later images from New York–"Melancholic tulip," "Washington Square"–have seeped into contemporary culture, and yet Kertész maintained that the real roots of his work were in Hungary. This book, the first completely dedicated to Kertész's early Hungarian prints, offers a unique window on the origins of genius. Ninety images, selected from more than 1,000 contact prints in the artist's estate, are meticulously reproduced to actual size, revealing the explosive cultural context of early twentieth-century Hungary.
