Construit en 5 parties, le livre s'ouvre sur la genèse du projet, intimement lié à l'enfance de l'artiste, et développé au gré d'un entretien entre Linda Ellia et Thierry Illouz, auteur du texte. L'ouvrage s'interroge ensuite sur ces "trésors cachés" que sont les dessins d'enfants jetés et perdus, pour mettre en lumière toute la créativité inhérente à ces oeuvres naissantes, et toucher, par un détour dans l'atelier de l'artiste, à cet "hors classe" ici magnifié. Enfin, il s'achève par un dialogue où se répondent, dans un rapprochement inattendu mais saisissant, les oeuvres de Linda Ellia et celles de ces artistes en herbe, "revanche" contre une certaine école, dans ce qu'elle peut parfois avoir d'écrasant et d'autoritaire.

Résumé:
Formed in 1991, Richard Murphy Architects early reputation was built on highly crafted and innovative domestic work in Edinburgh, Scotland. The practice has grown both in size and range of commissions, working across the UK and Ireland, in Europe and Sri Lanka and, more than two decades on, has amassed an extensive portfolio, designing buildings and spaces for the arts, education, housing, health, public and community use, as well as masterplanning. Richard Murphy Architects makes careful responses to complex contextswhether insertion, extension or new-build, the practices projects develop a dialogue between existing and new, intimacy and scale. large or small scale, public or private, each scheme harnesses plan, form, materials and detailing to produce a subtle, sensitively-considered result.

Résumé:
Photographs, newspaper cuttings, postcards, drawings, and slides: on entering the studio of Eduardo Souto de Moura, winner of the Pritzker Prize 2011, one is confronted with a variety of images on the walls that engage in a dialogue. How do these photos, drawings, and illustrations impact his design practice? What is the relationship between the image and the completed building? Floating Images uses this question as an opportunity to examine the architect’s visual universe. He has added images from his extensive collection of drawings and project sketches and reorganized them in this atlas. Complex relationships are formed between the individual illustrations and projects. Essays by Pedro Bandeira, Eduardo Souto de Moura, Diogo Seixas Lopes, and Philip Ursprung provide a contextualization through the history of art and images.

Résumé:
The well-known artist Jean Pfaff has undertaken a series of fascinating colour interventions in buildings – documented and analysed here for the first time. Jean Pfaff’s colour interventions in architecture are not just a matter of art in buildings, rather they are an exciting dialogue between colour and space. The chromatic modifications allow materials to assume a different appearance, to seem insubstantial, and they are a vital factor in the visual interplay between inside and outside spaces. Areas of dynamic colours alternate with indirect colour effects and reflections which enrich the ambiance of the building. With expressive photographs and enlightening texts, Heinrich Helfenstein reveals the quality and range of Jean Pfaff’s interventions, using examples including Peter Zumthor’s Kapelle Sogn Benedetg, Meili and Peter’s Timber Industry College, Biel, and Schrodt Architects' office building at Iserlohn.

Résumé:
One of the most innovative French graphic designers, Catherine Zask’s posters have the elegance and coherence of DNA, and indeed she works with the building blocks of writing and communication letters. Here, in "Poster collection 12", the series from the Zurich Museum für Gestaltung, she allows the letters free rein to be musical, to trigger echoes, to store images, but never unmoors them from their task of providing written communication in an appropriate and comprehensible form. The dialogue with the client and the public is crucially important to Zask: “I make graphics to include the others.” Her work for SCAM (Société Civile des Auteurs Multimédia), the Hippodrome theater in Douai, and the École d’Architecture Paris-Malaquais are evidence of the remarkable clarity and unmistakable individuality of her work.

Résumé:
In the spheres of culture, journalism, and politics, urgent desires for better understanding are often met with offers of dialogue. But as Western societies have become increasingly polarized, such reciprocal engagement has lost some of its constructive potential. This is why ''TEXTE ZUR KUNST'' has dedicated its new issue, “Lecture,” to an investigation of the possibilities that the monological format opens up. The contributions to the issue demonstrate how the lecture’s inherently authoritarian interpellation can be repurposed for a critique of power and for subversive ends, highlighting, in particular, the lecture performance as a potent intervention into established hierarchies and regimes of knowledge. In a practical extension of these discussions, six artists and scholars reflect on the approaches, structures, rhetorics, and methodologies of their presentations in video lectures produced for the issue.

Nul ne l’ignore : les forêts sont en danger. Mais répondre aux défis climatiques et écologiques hérités de nos usages destructeurs de la nature ne pourra se faire sans diagnostic commun sur lequel peut reposer un dialogue démocratique apaisé. À partir des dernières connaissances, ce livre rassemble les clés pour comprendre ce qui se joue vraiment en forêt pour notre société. Il répond à des questions simples : nos usages sont-ils responsables? Quel avenir pour le bois? Quelle politique mener alors que la forêt nous oblige à penser sur le long terme dans une société qui a fait de l’immédiateté le principal étalon de l’efficacité? Les auteurs du livre nous invitent chacun à penser nos actions – pour les générations futures. Car une chose est sûre : l’humanité sans forêt n’a pas d’avenir.

Résumé:
"The force of listening" explores the role of listening at the intersection of contemporary art and activism, and asks what transformations listening might facilitate in the world. Written as a constructed dialogue, "The force of listening" draws from conversations with artists, activists and political thinkers which took place during 2013–14, in the aftermath of the wave of protests and occupations against austerity. Artists Ayreen Anastas and Rene Gabri, media theorist Nick Couldry, philosopher Adriana Cavarero and members of Ultra-red and Precarious Workers Brigade as well as feminist consciousness-raising groups meet on the page to tackle questions of listening, attention and interconnection, collectivity, solidarity and resonance, the politics of the voice and the ethics of listening, the challenges of institutional frameworks and their reflections on the Occupy movement.

Résumé:
First conceived in 1955 by Arnold Bode, the inaugural documenta exhibition endeavored to bring Germany back into artistic dialogue with the rest of the post-war world. More than sixty years later, documenta 14 returns to its initial motivation by extending its base in the city of Kassel, Germany to Athens, Greece. Accompanying documenta 14, this book functions as a "reader," evoking the various meanings associated with that term. Emphasizing the importance of literature, storytelling, performance, and pedagogy, it features illustrations and critical writings that address and expand upon the exhibition's theme of economic and cultural realities in a new world. As the current social and political trends in Europe and the world have divided people geographically and economically, this documenta returns to its roots-bringing to light another significant moment in world history.

Résumé:
The first volume of the collection maps the work of the institutions and organisations involved in communicating the new and innovative thought and practice leading architecture today, highlighting the strategies they use and programmes they run to support this. Essays and interviews from the Museum of Architecture and Design, Ljubljana, the National Museum of XXI Century Arts, Rome, the Swiss Architecture Museum, Basel, CANactions, Kiev, Prishtina Architecture Week, Kosovo, the Lisbon Architecture Triennale and others give working examples of the roles that these organisations and institutions play in communication and education for those both within and beyond the field of architecture. A particular highlight of the book is a “collage conversation”, a visual dialogue between Superstudio co-founder Cristiano Toraldo di Francia and Guillermo López of MAIO, with some images specially commissioned for the publication.
