Résumé:
The book serves as a histirical survey of architectural lighting throughout the twentieth century and also examines the cultural, social, and artistic issues surrounding this phenomenon. During the 1920's and 1930's architectural floodlighting was at its most intense, considered an essentially modern abstract art form that crossed the boundaries between film, architecture, and painting. "Architecture of the Night" explores this dynamic period in depth, considers its impact today, and addresses the new issues that confront contemporary lighting, such as "light pollution", conservation, and aesthetics. The book features close to 200 illustrations and examines 100 examples of building illumination, including the Paris Opera House (1880), the Gas and Electric Building, Denver (1910), the Empire State Building, New York (1931), the Seagram Building, New York (1958), the Lloyds Building, London (1988) and the Anzeiger Hochhaus, Hanover (2000).

More than a field guide, it includes over 300 range maps and 3,000 photographs of leaves, flowers, fruits, seeds, and bark; an in-depth introduction to the biology of trees, their value, structure, evolution, classification, ecology, and conservation; descriptions of each species, organized by genus and family; a reflection on the consequences of environmental change on the health of trees, now and in the future; a presentation, based on the latest technologies, of North American trees in a planetary and evolutionary perspective. "Smithsonian trees of North America", ten years in the making, marries science and art to provide an insightful and compassionate exploration of the diversity, structure, form, and beauty of trees.

Au-delà d’un bilan dressé sur les recherches menées par les laboratoires nationaux, universitaires, publics et privés, la revue donne la parole aux maîtres d’œuvre, restaurateurs et responsables des services patrimoniaux pour présenter, à travers des études de cas récents, les problématiques qui se sont posées à eux, la façon de les résoudre et l’usage qu’ils font de ces nouveaux outils et techniques. Un numéro qui fera date, car il permet d’entrevoir les perspectives qui se dessinent d’ores et déjà sur l’évolution des techniques, et la façon de concevoir et conduire les restaurations.

Même si la démarche de décarbonation pousse à la conservation de l'existant, l'ampleur des défis écologiques va produire à grande échelle des bouleversements spatiaux, sociaux et sociétaux que nous pressentons sans pouvoir encore en mesurer la nature, le rythme et la dimension systémique. La conscience de l'incertitude invite à l'expérimentation, à la mobilisation des sciences et de l'imaginaire.. La recherche de réponses requiert une oeuvre collective et une haute exigence, intégrant un éventail de disciplines de plus en plus large dans une combinatoire urbaine originale. Cette ligne de conduite est depuis 2008 celle d'« Une Fabrique de la ville ». Ce livre en est le reflet au travers de quelques exemples de missions urbaines et territoriales caractérisées par une temporalité longue et une grande diversité des échelles et des lieux d'intervention. Avec une conviction constante : la ville est le bien commun par excellence.

The series consists of obsessively faithful three-dimensional trompe l'oeil reproductions--using period hardware in a 1:1 scale--of the backs of such iconic works as Picasso's "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon," van Gogh's "Starry Night" and Seurat's "La Grande Jatte," including every scratch, scribble, label, trace of tape and faded pencil notation found on the original. For six years, Muniz worked in partnership with the curatorial and conservation departments of New York's MOMA and Guggenheim museums, the Art Institute of Chicago and a team of craftsman, artists, forgers and technicians to realize this project. Verso also introduces texts by essayist Luc Sante and MOMA curator Eve Respini.

In 2008, this large social housing scheme was threatened with demolition and became a controversial conservation case. The government refused to give it protection as a historic building despite widespread public support for its retention. This book uncovers the history of the project, arguing for its historical and architectural significance and for its future role in local housing provision. It includes support from architects Richard Rogers and Zaha Hadid, with previously unpublished text and pictures by Alison + Peter Smithson and photographs by Sandra Lousada and Ioana Marinescu.

Résumé:
Consacré à la sauvegarde des grandes oeuvres de l’ingénierie du XXe siècle, ce premier numéro des Cahiers du TSAM explore le devenir de certaines des plus remarquables et emblématiques structures en béton du siècle passé. A travers les fi gures d’héroïques constructeurs, il interroge l’héritage construit des ingénieurs, convoquant les plus audacieux d’entre eux (Freyssinet, Isler, Maillart, Nervi, Vierendeel, etc.). Alors que la sauvegarde de l’architecture du XXe siècle s’est récemment constituée en discipline à part entière, la préservation des ouvrages de l’ingénierie de cette période est encore balbutiante. Considérés trop souvent sous le seul point de vue de la sécurité ou de la maintenance, ces ouvrages s’avèrent parfois de véritables chefs-d’oeuvre, jalons d’un «art de l’ingénieur» à la frontière entre performance technique et beauté plastique. Ces cahiers sont donc l’occasion d’initier, à l’appui d’exemples et de projets de sauvegarde concrets, une sensibilisation aux enjeux patrimoniaux dans le domaine de l’ingénierie. This first issue of the Cahiers du TSAM, dedicated to the conservation of the 20th century’s great works of engineering, aims to explore the future of some of the most remarkable and emblematic concrete structures of the previous century. Through the personalities of the heroic builders, this publication aims to consider what the engineers – the most daring of whom (Freyssinet, Isler, Maillart, Nervi, Vierendeel, etc.) are represented here – bequeathed to the century. While the conserva-tion of 20th century architecture has in recent years been seen as a discipline in its own right, the conservation of 20th century engineering is still in its infancy. Considered too offen purely from the point of view of security or maintenance, these works are now often seen as true masterpieces, cutting edge achievements of the “engineer’s art”, as stunning for their plastic beauty as for their technical performance. This publication provides an opportunity to stimulate, with reference to concrete examples and projects, an awareness of the heritage challenges to be addressed in the fi eld of engineering.
