Résumé:
Form and Formlessness is an experimental research project that investigates how aesthetic abstractions are developed through three approaches: An educational approach concerned with developing an aesthetic discipline, supporting a formgiving process aimed to create tangible artifacts. An art-based approach supporting an open exploration of distortion and formlessness. A cross-disciplinary exploratory approach concerned with aesthetic experiences shared in laborations demonstrating complexity and transformation. The thesis offers methods and models that both support and challenge the normative concepts of beauty, with high relevance for teaching 3-D formgiving aesthetics and research by design methodologies.

Max Neuhaus: Times Square
$37.95

Résumé:
In 1977, Max Neuhaus turned a triangle of pedestrian space between 45th and 46th Streets in Times Square into an island of harmonic sound. The rich textures of that sound continue today, emanating from beneath the sidewalk grating, to anonymously reach an individual’s ears as if one has stumbled upon a secret. Known as Times Square, the celebrated installation was(...)

The rich textures of that sound continue today, emanating from beneath the sidewalk grating, to anonymously reach an individual’s ears as if one has stumbled upon a secret. Known as Times Square, the celebrated installation was restored in 2002 with support from Dia Art Foundation, which further commissioned a site-specific piece, Time Piece Beacon, from Neuhaus in 2006 for its museum in Beacon, New York.

Résumé:
Well before today's debates on global warming and climate change, photographic images have played an important role in educating the general public about the wonders of nature and the destruction of the global environment.

Résumé:
Cette publication entend contribuer à l’élaboration d’un regard critique aux dynamiques qui émergent de la croisée des notions de numérique et de l’urbain. Les mots digital et polis servent de « ruse » pour déplacer le regard, sans l’enfermer dans des discours dominants ou des significations préconçues : la ville est prise en compte en tant que polis, c’est-à-dire celui qui serait le support actif d’un espace politique et social, et le numérique s’élargit à la notion de digitus, de l’empreinte digitale, où il serait possible de repérer la trace de l’humain, la présence du corps.

La revue fig. est une revue d'architecture qui ne parle pas seulement d'architecture. C'est un support imprimé qui permet d'expérimenter et d'interroger l'espace, la ville, le paysage, le chantier et l'habiter. Son but est de livrer une critique architecturale innovante, plurielle, graphique et grammaticale, réunissant des positionnements artistiques, littéraires et philosophiques. Ce quatrième numéro de fig. montre quelques possibilités de concevoir d’autres architectures et d’entendre d’autres récits, hors des logiques immobilières et culturelles actuelles essentiellement basées sur la spéculation et la rentabilité, auxquelles on donne encore trop de latitude.
