Résumé:
While he was working to complete the Allmannajuvet Zinc Mine Museum in southern Norway in 2016, Swiss architect Peter Zumthor asked Norwegian architectural historian Mari Lending to engage in a dialogue about the project. In meandering, impressionistic style, and drawing on their favorite writers, such as Johann Peter Hebel, Stendhal, Nabokov, and T. S. Eliot, their exchanges explore how history, time, and temporalities reverberate across Zumthor’s oeuvre. Looking back, Zumthor ponders on how a feeling of history has informed his attempts at emotional reconstruction by means of building, from architectural interventions in dramatic landscapes to his design for the redevelopment of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, which conceived the building on a suitably grand urban scale.

Sagmeister: Made you look
$44.00

Résumé:
Another self-indulgent design monograph is Stefan Sagmeister's hand-scrawled subtitle for the first book about his work, Made You Look. This, and the book's clear red case and silver-gilded pages, seem contrary to the raw, handwritten style he is known for, already setting us up for a wild and very personal ride through almost the entire corpus of the 39-year-old(...)

Résumé:
Another self-indulgent design monograph is Stefan Sagmeister's hand-scrawled subtitle for the first book about his work, Made You Look. This, and the book's clear red case and silver-gilded pages, seem contrary to the raw, handwritten style he is known for, already setting us up for a wild and very personal ride through almost the entire corpus of the 39-year-old designer's work. Sagmeister once scratched words into his skin for his own lecture poster at Cranbrook, and this is the book version--sometimes enlightening, sometimes embarrassing, and ultimately touching. The story is a conversation between Peter Hall's text and Sagmeister's handwritten commentary, a perfect and believable device for an absorbing dialogue.

Résumé:
Experimentation and dialogue are central to the creative process of Fuensanta Nieto and Enrique Sobejano, and in their works light, matter, and space are as intimately connected as they are to landscape, history, and architecture. This is clear from the texts in which the architects themselves interpret each one of the twenty-two projects in the monograph at hand, a double volume which covers their career over the last twelve years, a fertile period in which the office, from its studios based in Madrid and Berlin, has strengthened its presence outside Spain, with buildings as the Arvo Pärt Center in Estonia, the Archive of the Avant-Garde, or Montblanc Haus, both in Germany.

Résumé:
This catalogue for an exhibition of work by Marlene Dumas at the Museum of Cycladic Art in Athens features over 40 paintings and works on paper. It offers a cross-section of the artist’s challenging representations of the human body. The works were gathered from different phases of the artist’s life, in order to make combinations that would make sense to be shown together with works from the museum’s collection, and are grouped into four categories: the family portrait, erotic figure, fragmented body, and portraits of sculptures. In this way her artworks enter into an anachronistic dialogue with the abstracted human forms of Cycladic figurines crafted by unknown artists several millennia ago.

Résumé:
This project began with the opportunity to photograph Monte da Lapa, one of Álvaro Siza’s last projects in Porto. Its dual simplicity and complexity opened the creative doors to a universe where light, matter, and space dialogue with almost poetic precision. Using black and white was not only an aesthetic choice for photographer Pedro Cardigo but also a tribute to the timelessness of Siza’s work. It emphasises the purity of the forms, the contrast between light and shadow, and the texture of the materials. Featuring photographs of numerous works by Siza, this is both a celebration of the architect’s creative genius and an invitation to the viewer to see them through Cardigo’s eyes.

Résumé:
"Altre Tempeste" is a visual journey through the contemporary landscapes of the Veneto, seen through the lens of Olivo Barbieri. Drawing inspiration from Giorgione’s "The Tempest," the artist brings Renaissance memory into dialogue with the transformations of Italy’s Northeast, where historical architecture, industrial warehouses, and shifting natural environments coexist. From Carlo Scarpa’s Brion Tomb to Canova’s Gypsotheca, Barbieri moves between sweeping views and intimate details, using color and light as critical tools of inquiry. Photography becomes a laboratory where art, architecture, and science converge, revealing new ways of seeing and understanding place. Featuring thirty-two previously unpublished works and insightful critical texts, the volume presents a landscape suspended between history, industry, and imagination.

Résumé:
In "Democratic design – Space for cooperation, collaboration and compromise," Aedes explores how architecture, planning processes and public spaces can foster democratic engagement and social cohesion – both more urgent than ever in times of profound societal uncertainty. The programme consists of an exhibition, a series of four Lab Talks and a catalogue featuring contributions from practitioners in Berlin, Germany and across Europe, selected through an open call in collaboration with European architecture centres and through research conducted by the Aedes team. The presented projects amplify marginalised voices, encourage participation and inspire collective visions for the future. Dialogue and exchange are essential conditions for democracy, cultivating the ability to accept differing viewpoints and to compromise – the very foundations of democratic culture.

Résumé:
How does the United States seem, at once, so small and big, quiet and loud, phony and true? In his first Aperture monograph, "Life Still," Lee Friedlander (born in Aberdeen, Washington, 1934) reimagines the presentation of his oeuvre at age ninety-one, bringing together rarely seen and unpublished images from the past sixty years alongside new work to stage a visual dialogue between past and present. Pulitzer Prize–winning writer Hua Hsu observes how these stubborn paradoxes of the American consciousness— the irony, humor, and self-conflict—remain as vivid today as they always have been. By seeing contradictions in the commonplace, Friedlander presents us with a book of enduring riddles about American culture.
