Résumé:
Ce n'est pas une civilisation qui s'achève, mais une nouvelle qui commence " celle de la transparence, programmée par le poète allemand Paul Scheerbart dans son manifeste "Architecture de verre" en 1910. La transparence, valeur invariablement positive, traverse tous les champs de la pensée, par-delà les idéologies, et constitue une clé de lecture de notre temps, en termes psychologiques, philosophiques, sociaux, économiques et politiques. Ce livre, outre une nouvelle traduction française du texte visionnaire de Paul Scheerbart, offre une série d'entrées parallèles dans cette notion de transparence et documente intégralement l'exposition réalisée par Guillaume Désanges et François Piron à laVilla Arson, Nice : "Intouchable (L'Idéal Transparence". Une exposition qui, à travers une sélection d'œuvres majeures issues de l'art contemporain des quarante dernières années, propose une immersion dans la transparence, et construit un parcours idéal et sensuel sur les rapports entre transparence, réflexion et opacité, dans un mouvement qui mène de l'idéal à ses dévoiements.

Résumé:
In the decades following World War Two, and in part in response to the Cold War, governments across Western Europe set out ambitious programmes for social welfare and the redistribution of wealth that aimed to improve the everyday lives of their citizens. Many of these welfare state programmes - housing, schools, new towns, cultural and leisure centres – involved not just construction but a new approach to architectural design, in which the welfare objectives of these state-funded programmes were delineated and debated. The impact on architects and architectural design was profound and far-reaching, with welfare state projects moving centre-stage in architectural discourse not just in Europe but worldwide.

Soviet peripheral cities are discussed for their historical precedent and contextualized through ironic responses to them by radical architecture collectives such as Superstudio and Archizoom. The volume is rounded out with texts on Le Corbusier, Oscar Niemeyer, Lucio Costa and the planned cities of Chandigarh and Brasilia, as well as a theoretical section on megastructures and megacities. This volume is published in concert with an extensive European traveling exhibition and a series of symposia and workshops.

Résumé:
First published in 2017 as Revisiting Postmodernism, this refreshed edition of a seminal text reflects on a design movement that changed our world. Postmodernism invites readers to explore the style in a new light, as the cultural phenomenon that it is, one which thrives on complexity and pluralism. Exploring its expression not only in architecture, but in design, urban planning and placemaking, Postmodernism reflects on the history of the movement and its continuing influence on design practice today. Sir Terry Farrell and Adam Nathaniel Furman present two separate but complementary perspectives of this rich period of architectural history; one account as lived experience from a protagonist and pioneer in the field of postmodern architecture, and the other analysing the movement afresh, through the lens of the 21st century. Shedding new light onto the forces and influences of the time, and offering insight into how these were transforming approaches to architecture both in the UK and internationally, this important book presents a new appreciation of this period of architectural history.
