Résumé:
Scenography presents international projects of Atelier Bruckner 2002-2010 and the underlying design processes. From abstract drafts like the conceptual kit for the Mercedes-Benz travelling exhibition through to concepts for permanent exhibitions like the Archaeological Museum in Herne. From corporate architecture in the redesign of the BMW Museum in Munich or the Deutsche Borse in Frankfurt to artistic multimedia installations like the Pavilion experiencing limits at the Swiss national exhibition Expo 02 in Biel through to media architecture like the African Pavilion at the Expo 08 in Zaragoza and and the State Grid Pavilion at the Expo 2010 in Shanghai. With more than 70 employees, Atelier Bruckner is now one of the world's leading ateliers for exhibition design and scenography.

There is widespread consensus that we are living at the end—of democracy, of liberalism, of capitalism, of a healthy planet, of the Holocene, of civilization as we know it.

Résumé:
There is widespread consensus that we are living at the end—of democracy, of liberalism, of capitalism, of a healthy planet, of the Holocene, of civilization as we know it. In this book, drawing on radical futurisms and visions of justice-to-come emerging from the traditions of the oppressed—Indigenous, African-American, multispecies, anti-capitalist—as materialized in experimental visual cultural, new media, aesthetic practices, and social movements, T. J. Demos poses speculative questions about what comes after end-of-world narratives. He argues that it's as vital to defeat fatalistic nihilism as it is to defeat the false solutions of green capitalism and algorithmic governance. How might we decolonize the future, and cultivate an emancipated chronopolitics in relation to an undetermined not-yet? If we are to avoid climate emergency's cooptation by technofixes, and the defuturing of multitudes by xenophobic eco-fascism, Demos argues, we must cultivate visions of just futurity and multispecies flourishing.

Résumé:
Sluminsider is a choral narrative that attempts to reveal the complexity of the slum of Mathare, one of the biggest shantytowns in Nairobi. The project of expansion of a street school, the Why Not Junior Academy, and the process of environmental improvement of the surrounding area, where a community agriculture initiative has been set up to replace an unauthorized dump, is the starting point from which to combine experiences and identities from very different disciplines, including architecture,design, agriculture, photography and video. This project is one of the case studies used for comparison and dialogue with the city of São Paulo and the São Paulo Calling research project, which examined the informal settlements of Rome, Nairobi, Medellin, Mumbai, Moscow and Baghdad. For six months, an exhibition analyzed the characteristics, differences and causes of informal settlements, developing six workshops in the field in different favelas of São Paulo and organizing size encounters that made São Paulo the world capital of the debate on transformation of contemporary cities.

Résumé:
L'architecture moderniste de Maputo est au cœur de cet ouvrage : les rez-de-chaussée de ses bâtiments servent de prisme pour explorer la transformation des villes postcoloniales, en mettant l'accent sur les rues, les espaces publics et les mutations urbaines. La photographie de Giovanna Silva saisit le paysage en évolution de la ville ainsi que son tissu social, tandis que des entretiens avec Ana Tostões et Ana Raquel Machava apportent un éclairage sur le patrimoine architectural et les enjeux de Maputo. Les architectes Matteo Poli et Luca Astorri (AOUMM) discutent de ses futurs possibles et de ses héritages durables, en interrogeant les notions de mondialisation, de résilience et d'identité. Le livre met en lumière l'interaction dynamique entre histoire et modernité, tout en proposant une réflexion plus large sur l'adaptation et la transformation urbaines dans les contextes postcoloniaux, ainsi que sur l'importance de préserver et d'étudier ces structures modernistes pour bâtir un avenir durable et inclusif à Maputo.

Résumé:
On a rainy day in May 2007, the mayor of Paris inaugurated the Jardins d'Eole, a park whose completion was hailed internationally as an exemplar of sustainable urbanism. The park was the result of a hard-fought, decadelong protest movement in a low-income Maghrebi and African immigrant district starved for infrastructure, but the Mayor's vision of urban sustainability was met with jeers.Drawing extensively from immersive, firsthand ethnographic research with northeast Paris residents, as well as an analysis of green architecture and urban design, Andrew Newman argues that environmental politics must be separated from the construct of urban sustainability, which has been appropriated by forces of redevelopment and gentrification in Paris and beyond.

Résumé:
Providing hard data for trends that many perceive only vaguely and some deny altogether, "Designing for diversity" reveals a profession rife with gender and racial discrimination and examines the aspects of architectural practice that hinder or support the full participation of women and persons of color. Drawing on interviews and surveys of hundreds of architects, Kathryn H. Anthony outlines some of the forms of discrimination that recur in architecture, such as being confined to certain kinds of positions, typically interior design for women, government work for African Americans, and computer-aided design for Asian-American architects. Anthony discusses the profession's attitude toward flexible schedules and part-time contracts and identifies strategies that have helped underrepresented individuals advance in the profession. Given the traditional mismatch between diverse consumers and predominantly white male producers of the built environment, plus the shifting population balance toward communities of color, Anthony contends that the architectural profession staves off true diversity at its own peril. Through her book, practicing architects, managers of firms, and educators will learn how to create conditions more welcoming to a diversity of users as well as designers of the built environment.

Résumé:
Scott Ruff’s studio, 'Gullah/Geechee Institute', investigated architecture’s role as a cultural signifier in the African-American Gullah–Geechee community off the South Carolina coast. It challenged students to translate cultural ideas into tectonic and spatial strategies for a monument, museum, and memorial that serves as a gateway to the Gullah–Geechee corridor, incorporating public interpretive and historical programs. In Florencia Pita and Jackilin Bloom’s studio, 'Easy Office', students experimented with ways of generating new spatial, formal, material, and narrative ideas through the processes of collecting, collaging, and casting everyday objects. The studio considered notions of the creative office and the workplace based on the unexpected space, form, and materiality that emerged from these processes. Students in Omar Gandhi’s studio, 'Where the Wild Things Are', designed a campus of creatures for Rabbit Snare Gorge on the north coast of Cape Breton Island. They focused on a series of interventions that used vernacular approaches to produce specific functions, develop a process or ideology, and frame sensory experience. The students explored how Nova Scotia’s regional architecture takes advantage of phenomenological opportunities available on the site and inspires new responses to climate and geography.

Résumé:
Menna Agha and Ola Hassanain edit, curate, and annotate this collection of stories by black Europeans, in which they tell stories of African peoplehood in cities that didn’t want them. They gather and tell stories of care, refusal, and the many place-making emotions that carved black spaces despite European cities. This collection includes stories by k. eltinaé, Mário Barros, Moad Musbahi, Sarah Bekambo, Bothan Ahmed Botan, Belinda Kazeem-Kaminski, and Nasra Abdullahi who recount, account, testify, theorize, plot, and speculate. The storytellers write in a sense-making exercise that seeks to shake the epistemic grounds on which they were forced to stand.
