Résumé:
Focusing on 35 distinct areas of the city, this book presents the new face of the German capital including the former West, the new center, and the government district with stunning photographs that look at the startling contrasts between old and new. Both local and international architects have carried out rebuilding projects, most famously Renzo Piano ’s Daimler Chrysler project, Michael Wilford ’s British Embassy in Berlin, Norman Foster ’s Reichstagconversion, Helmut Jahn ’s piece for Sony, Daniel Libeskind ’s Jewish Museum Berlin. Architectural historian Christiane Kruse examines Berlin ’s vibrant, checkered past, offering surprising insights into its rebirth as a thriving, thoroughly modern metropolis and using texts that place current developments in a historical context. Rare, archive photographs from the GDR and before the war show the transformation of the city.

Résumé:
Conversion, adaptation, reuse - these techniques are as old as construction itself. However, since the industrialization of the building industry and the emergence of modernism in architecture, newly constructed buildings have dominated our idea of good and progressive architecture. For decades, conversion did not play a significant role in architectural practice. Today, things have changed. The industrialization of the construction industry has led to environmental degradation, and the reform potential of modernism has been exhausted. Consequently, the existing building stock is one of the resources - perhaps even the most important resource - for the transformation of our cities. Against this backdrop, the architecture of conversion has made an unexpected comeback. Young architects in particular are providing surprising answers to the environmental and social questions of our time with their conversion projects.

Résumé:
Grounded in empirical research, 'Alternative pedagogical spaces: From utopia to institutionalization' is a critical inquiry into the establishment, development, and transformation of alternative pedagogical and social spaces. Written by Anna Colin, a former director and co-founder of Open School East, an independent art school and community space founded in London in 2013, this essay-length book explores the instituting factors, organizational life cycles, and alignments and misalignments between values and practices that permeate such a project. The essay delves into the qualities and prerequisites for what Colin calls "multi-public educational organizations." It also scrutinizes the hurdles associated with the effort to remain alternative, including processes of habituation, temptation or pressure to scale up, ethos-bending fundraising exercises, and long tenure, as well as the plain desire for stability and sustainability.

Le présent essai part de l'hypothèse qu'on peut observer deux coupures fondamentales dans la culture humaine depuis ses origines. La première, qui s'est produite vers le milieu du deuxième millénaire av. J.C., peut être appelée «invention des images techniques». Il se peut que d'autres coupures se soient produites dans le passé; mais elles ont échappé à notre(...)

Résumé:
Le présent essai part de l'hypothèse qu'on peut observer deux coupures fondamentales dans la culture humaine depuis ses origines. La première, qui s'est produite vers le milieu du deuxième millénaire av. J.C., peut être appelée «invention des images techniques». Il se peut que d'autres coupures se soient produites dans le passé; mais elles ont échappé à notre prise. Cette hypothèse va de pair avec le soupçon que la structure de la culture est sur le point de connaître une transformation fondamentale. Le présent essai s'efforcera de justifier ce soupçon. Vilém Flusser, né à Prague en 1920, mort en 1991, s'établit à Sao Paulo. Il enseigne à l'université de Sao Paulo, à partir de 1959, la philosophie des sciences et y devient en 1963 professeur de philosophie de la communication.

Résumé:
Written by the well-known architectural critic Kenneth Powell, this new monograph provides an illustrated overview and an ideal introduction to the works of Richard Roger’s internationally renowned office. Founded in 1977, with offices in London, Barcelona and Tokyo, RRP has a long-established reputation for high-tech and energy-efficient designs. Famous as the architects of the Centre Pompidou in Paris (together with Renzo Piano), and for the iconic Lloyd’s of London, the practice’s recent projects include the transformation of the Las Arenas bullring in Barcelona, the new Library of Birmingham, Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 5 and Madrid’s Barajas Airport expansion. This comprehensive survey also covers RRP’s substantial masterplanning projects, such as the Lu Jia Zui district in Shanghai and the masterplan for the Greenwich Peninsula in London.

Résumé:
How has Berlin’s urban landscape changed in its remarkable transformation from divided city to creative capital? Despite the monumental heritage and grand development projects, Berlin still conjures up images of urban fragmentation and vacant inner-city land. The book reveals the changing nature and complex politics of this open space. A rephotographing of sites between 2001 and 2016 shows how no man’s land has made way for new apartments and underground hangouts have changed into commercial hubs, but it also transports us to remaining pockets of urban wilderness and unexpected freedom right next to the city’s most iconic squares. The accompanying essays by noted urban thinkers explore this little-known but vital reserve—forcing us to reflect on our unrelenting efforts to chart the future of the city at large.

Résumé:
Le 1700 La Poste présente une exposition solo dédiée à l’artiste montréalais François Morelli. La carrière exceptionnelle de François Morelli se déploie sur quatre décennies, investissant sur plus de six disciplines artistiques à leur manière à travers le temps. Du dessin libre à l’estampe, de l’action publique à la performance et à l’installation in situ, l’œuvre de François Morelli trouve son fondement dans une pratique quotidienne du dessin, croisée d’une volonté constante d’intervenir dans le tissu social. À travers une démarche très polyvalente, François Morelli s’intéresse aux notions de passage, de migration et de transformation. Il investit le corps comme sujet d’étude tant au niveau personnel qu’au niveau social et historique. L’œuvre traite des frontières entre mémoire collective et mémoire personnelle, des rapports entre le politique et le domestique, entre le tragique et le grotesque.
