Résumé:
Un rêve partagé par beaucoup et néanmoins à portée de main. Cet ouvrage présente 120 projets réalisés depuis l'an 2000, en Europe, en Amérique du Nord comme du Sud, en Australie, mais aussi en Afrique du Sud. Les architectes les plus inventifs ont été sollicités. Volumes, styles, matériaux et techniques varient selon les latitudes et les exigences des futurs propriétaires, avec pour point commun l'accent mis sur l'esthétique, le confort et la luminosité. Prenant le parti de se fondre dans leur environnement ou, au contraire, de se démarquer franchement, chaque projet fait montre d'une personnalité bien affirmée. Les réalisations sont présentées selon leur localisation et leur nature: en ville, en périphérie urbaine, à la campagne, au bord de l'eau, demeures de rêve et futuristes. Un tour du monde de l'architecture contemporaine dédiée à la maison particulière.

Résumé:
Format Photographers launched in 1983. It was, uniquely, an agency run by women photographers, for women photographers. It closed in 2003. "From its beginning, the Format ethos and working practice were based on three key principles. The agency aimed to encourage its members to develop their creativity and careers, while remaining sensitive to the context in which their images were used and distributed. It portrayed people and issues that were under-represented in the mainstream media of the time. By photographing women and men in non-traditional roles, its members aimed to break down gender stereotypes, and changed the way women and other marginalised groups were seen."

Various things related to traditional Japanese architecture and everyday life are the focus of this illustrated guide. Interestingly, it is intended not only for English readers but also Japanese people who would like to be able to better explain certain things to people from outside their country. A huge number of items, objects, materials, structures, decorative elements, and so on that one encounters while visiting or living in Japan, but might be too obscure or specific to remember the names, or to even imagine from the term, are included in an accessible and very informative format. For each, the Japanese name, English name, and pronunciation are accompanied by an explanation.

Résumé:
'Louise Bourgeois: The Return of the Repressed' highlights the enduring presence of psychoanalysis as a motivational force and a site of exploration in the artist’s life and work. Selected and edited by Philip Larratt-Smith (Bourgeois’ literary archivist), and contextualized with eight extensive scholarly essays, this collection of approximately 80 previously unpublished writings spans some six decades of the artist’s production. The second volume in this slipcased set is an up-to-date Bourgeois monograph that details works made right up until the artist’s death in 2010. Together, the two volumes comprise a complete portrait of the life, work and thought of this seminal figure.

Résumé:
Stephen Shore’s "Uncommon Places" is indisputably a canonic body of work—a touchstone for those interested in photography and the American landscape. Remarkably, despite having been the focus of numerous shows and books, including the eponymous 1982 Aperture classic (expanded and reissued several times), this series of photographs has yet to be explored in its entirety. Over the past five years, Shore has scanned hundreds of negatives shot between 1973 and 1981. In this volume, Aperture has invited an international group of fifteen photographers, curators, authors, and cultural figures to select ten images apiece from this rarely seen cache of images. Each portfolio offers an idiosyncratic and revealing commentary on why this body of work continues to astound; how it has impacted the work of new generations of photography and the medium at large; and proposes new insight on Shore’s unique vision of America as transmuted in this totemic series.

Résumé:
This book documents a unique collaboration between the artist Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) and the architect Peter Zumthor (born 1973). The Steilneset Memorial, opened in 2011, is a monument in Vardø, Norway, commemorating the 17th-century trial and execution of 91 women for witchcraft. The brainchild of the National Tourist Routes project in Norway (a government-sponsored initiative which aims to attract visitors to remote but exceptionally beautiful locations), the Steilneset Memorial started out as a modest monument to honor the victims of the witchcraft trials, to be built on the site where the burnings originally took place. But the project, which would be Bourgeois’ last major work, grew in the hands of Zumthor and Bourgeois into two distinct, haunting structures.
