Résumé:
Cet ouvrage réunit trois conférences d’Alain Corbin, dans lesquelles l’auteur se penche sur notre rapport à la météorologie, à l’eau et à la mer. La sensibilité au temps qu’il fait a une histoire : chaleur et froid polaire, pluie, vent n'ont ni la même signification ni la même réception selon les époques.

La sensibilité au temps qu’il fait a une histoire : chaleur et froid polaire, pluie, vent n'ont ni la même signification ni la même réception selon les époques. De même, notre relation avec l’eau, douce ou salée, a évolué : bienfaisantes ou malfaisantes pour le corps humain, toutes les eaux ne se valent pas, et leurs qualités, illusoires ou non, changent au fil des siècles. Enfin, si les bords de mer sont déjà convoités à l’époque romaine, ce n’est qu’à partir du XVIIIe siècle que les rivages exercent une véritable attraction. Les angoisses face au ciel, l’eau comme « riche support de croyances, de fantasmes et, surtout, de rêves », la mer « apprivoisée », vue de la terre ferme – ce sont ces matières-là, malléables et fascinantes, qui nourrissent les pages de l’historien.

Résumé:
Since their inception with New York's Crystal Palace Exhibition in the mid-nineteenth century, world's fairs have introduced Americans to “exotic” pleasures such as belly dancing and the Ferris Wheel; pathbreaking technologies such as telephones and X rays; and futuristic architectural, landscaping, and transportation schemes. Billed by their promoters as “encyclopedias of civilization,” the expositions impressed tens of millions of fairgoers with model environments and utopian visions. Setting more than 30 world’s fairs from 1853 to 1984 in their historical context, the authors show that the expositions reflected and influenced not only the ideals but also the cultural tensions of their times. As mainstays rather than mere ornaments of American life, world’s fairs created national support for such issues as the social reunification of North and South after the Civil War, U.S. imperial expansion at the turn of the 20th-century, consumer optimism during the Great Depression, and the essential unity of humankind in a nuclear age.

En 1988, l’UNESCO lance un concours international d’architecture pour la construction d’une nouvelle bibliothèque. Inaugurée en octobre 2001, le bâtiment cumule les fonctions de bibliothèque publique, de centre d’archives, de musée et de centre de formation des bibliothécaires. Le propos du volume est de réunir les acteurs du projet et des contributeurs choisis pour leur approche à la fois érudite et sensible des différents aspects qui concernent la réalité, l’image, le symbole et l’avenir de la bibliothèque. Sont rassemblées les contributions de Christoph Kapeller, l’un des architectes lauréats, de Gerald Grunberg, directeur de la BPI de Beaubourg, conseiller technique auprès du directeur de projet de la bibliothèque, et d’Ismail Serageldin, le directeur de la nouvelle bibliothèque.

Résumé:
From social get-together to scenes of delirium, this publication aims to unpack the party as a complex, vertiginous construct that provides a dynamic view onto questions of community. If the party functions as an intensification of togetherness, what lessons might it provide in negotiating a given social order? This first volume on the topic considers the house party, and in what ways domestic space is reworked in support of an extension of the family unit. Including a series of interviews with those active in flat events in Budapest during the communist regime and today, essays on hospitality, the politics of rest, and erotic knowledge, and documentation on Sala 603, an informal house-theater in Curitiba. The publication is the first in a new Errant Bodies series developed in parallel to a set of party-workshops initiated by the artist Brandon LaBelle held in different locations in Madrid, each of which performatively investigates states of partying, posing the party as a scene of study.

Résumé:
Cette publication rend compte de l'approche singulière du dessin de Léa Belooussovitch à travers une sélection d'œuvres réalisées à main levée et au crayon de couleur sur du feutre textile blanc. L'artiste réinterprète selon un long processus, des photographies de nature violente issues des médias. Cette démarche confère un nouveau souffle à ces photographies, en faisant ressortir la part d'humanité qu'il y reste. Les dessins de Léa Belooussovitch répondent à un même protocole. Elle commence par sélectionner dans la presse ou sur Internet des images qui nous assaillent quotidiennement, liées à des faits d'actualités dramatiques : attentats au Pakistan, scènes de guerre en Syrie... L'artiste se concentre sur la représentation de victimes anonymes blessées ou vulnérables. Léa Belooussovitch soumet ces images-sources à diverses manipulations (recadrage, agrandissement) avant d'entamer leur transfert sur le support du feutre. Ce travail lent et répétitif d'accumulation des traits du crayon de couleur altère l'aspect lisse de la matière et lui confère un volume duveteux.

Résumé:
The sites and stories of this publication shift our perception of what defines New York, placing the passion, determination, defeats, and victories of its people at the core. Delving into the histories of New York's five boroughs, you will encounter enslaved Africans in revolt, women marching for equality, workers on strike, musicians and performers claiming streets for their art, and neighbors organizing against landfills and industrial toxins and in support of affordable housing and public schools. The streetscapes that emerge from these groups' struggles bear the traces, and this book shows you where to look to find them. This book expands the scope and scale of traditional guidebooks, providing an equitable exploration of the diverse communities throughout the city. Through the stories of over 150 sites across the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island as well as thematic tours and contemporary and archival photographs, a people’s New York emerges, one in which collective struggles for justice and freedom have shaped the very landscape of the city.

And, as the eminent scholar of public space Setha Low argues in this book, even fleeting moments of visibility and encounter in these spaces tend to foster a broader worldview and our willingness to accept difference. Yet we are losing public spaces to accelerated urban development and the belief that public spaces are expendable. Low explores why public spaces matter today, how they are at risk, and what we can do about protecting these essential places that support our everyday lives. Finally, she shows how we can work to promote public space protection and expansion at both the grassroots and global levels. Throughout, she focuses on real public spaces and the people who use them in cities and regions across the Americas, from New Jersey to Costa Rica

The items span Alexander’s fifty-year career, beginning with an early version of his PhD dissertation based on fieldwork in India, continuing to fifteen years in the development of "A Pattern Language", one of the best-selling books in the history of architecture, and proceeding to the writing of "The Nature of Order", Alexander’s four-volume masterwork, and beyond. The writings combine theory and descriptions of practice, and together support a blueprint for the development of a new, humane way of building, while also providing a window into the mind of an extraordinary thinker, teacher and professional.

Since then, Roadsworth has developed as an artist, continuing to intervene in public spaces and to travel the world, executing commissioned work for organizations such as Cirque de Soleil, The Lost O (cycled over in le tour de France), and for municipalities, exhibitions, and arts festivals. In this playful and sometimes subversive book, featuring more than 450 reproductions of his unmistakable work, Roadsworth takes the urban landscape and turns its constituent elements on their heads, both indicting our culture's excesses and celebrating what makes us human (lest we forget).

It is the first book to share Oudolf's original planting plans and plant groupings and the only book to explicitly show how his gardens and landscapes are made. An intimate knowledge of plants is essential to the success of this approach and Planting makes Oudolf's considerable understanding of plant ecology and performance accessible, explaining how plants behave in different situations, what goes on underground, and which species make good neighbors. Extensive plant charts and planting plans will help you choose plants for their structure, color, and texture as well as the way they perform in the landscape. A detailed directory, with details each plant's life expectancy, the persistence of its seedheads, its tendency to spread, and propensity to self-seed, is an invaluable resource.Planting is an essential resource for designers and gardeners looking to create plant-rich, beautiful gardens that support biodiversity and nourish the human spirit.
