Résumé:
L'urbanisation des territoires de transition entre la ville et la campagne ceux de la suburbia, est oublieuse de l'épaisseur du passé, des transformations complexes des sites, aussi bien que des représentations que l'on s'en fait.

Résumé:
L'urbanisation des territoires de transition entre la ville et la campagne ceux de la suburbia, est oublieuse de l'épaisseur du passé, des transformations complexes des sites, aussi bien que des représentations que l'on s'en fait. La notion de sub-urbanisme, définie par l'auteur comme une " subversion de l'urbanisme ", remet profondément en question un telle attitude. Cet essai plaide pour une démarche qui appréhenderait le site comme la matrice d'un projet explorant les multiples strates spatio-temporelles du territoire : l'architecture comme instrument de la mémoire et la mémoire comme matière de l'architecture. Quatre sources alimentent la démarche : les travaux de Frances Yates sur L'Art de la mémoire, consacrés aux pratiques mnémotechniques des anciens ; la "métaphore romaine" proposée par Sigmund Freud pour évoquer le mode de conservation du passé dans la structuration de la psyché ; la démarche de l'artiste américain Robert Smithson avec son concept de non-site ; et enfin le parc de Lancy réalisé dans la banlieue de Genève par l'architecte Georges Descombes. A l'instar du sub-urbanisme qu'elle entreprend d'illustrer, cette démon tration s'aventure dans l'épaisseur narrative des lieux, et invite le lecteur-visiteur à frayer son chemin à travers de nombreuses couches de mémoire et de culture. Le mot d'ordre est extrapolation.

Résumé:
The architecture of Britain is an art gallery all around us. From our streets to squares, through our cities, suburbs and villages, we are surrounded by magnificent buildings of eclectic styles. ''A Short History of British Architecture'' is story of why Britain looks the way it does, from prehistoric Stonehenge to the lofty towers of today. Historian Simon Jenkins traces the relentless battles over the European traditions of classicism and gothic- from the gothic cathedrals of Lincoln, Ely and Wells to the ‘'prodigy'’ houses of the Tudor renaissance, and visits the great estates of Georgian London, the docks of Liverpool, the mills of Yorkshire and the chapels of south Wales. The arrival of modernism in the twentieth century politicised public taste, upheaved communities and sought to reconstruct entire cities. It produced Coventry Cathedral and Lloyd’s of London, but also the brutalist monoliths of Sheffield’s Park Hill, Glasgow’s Cumbernauld and London’s South Bank. Only in the 1970s did the public at last give voice to what became the conservation revolution – a movement in which Jenkins played a leading role, both as deputy chairman of English Heritage and chairman of the National Trust, and in the saving of iconic buildings such as St Pancras International and Covent Garden.

Résumé:
From 1845 to 1862, the Boston partnership of Albert Sands Southworth and Josiah Johnson Hawes maintained the most celebrated photography studio in the United States. Taking as their subjects both the greatest personalities of the day and the natural spectacles of the American landscape, such as Niagara Falls, Southworth & Hawes elevated the new medium of daguerreotype photography to the level of art. Transcending the mere recording of factual detail, their daguerreotypes reflect a quintessentially American aesthetic and embody an emerging national culture and spirit. "Young America" features full-scale color reproductions of all plates in the exhibition as well as 2,000 additional black-and-white illustrations. It includes a critical analysis of the historical and cultural importance of the work of Southworth & Hawes, with original texts by Brian Wallis, ICP Director of Exhibitions and Chief Curator, and Grant Romer, Director of the Advanced Program in Photography Conservation at George Eastman House, among other scholars. Appendices include a chronology, an annotated bibliography, an exploration of the daguerreotype process, brief biographies of the sitters, and a Southworth & Hawes family genealogy, making the catalogue an invaluable resource for researchers as well as general readers. The book includes an annotated bibliography, exhibition checklist and chronology.

Résumé:
Created between 1787 and 1823 by George IV, the ''Royal Pavilion in Brighton'' is perhaps the most daring and enchanting example of a building that expresses the European fascination with what in the early nineteenth century was considered the “Orient,” in particular China and India. The building, with its Indian-inspired exterior, was the work of the renowned architect John Nash, who with the contributions of several other gifted and inventive architects, artists, and designers, created a building that draws you in, takes you on a journey, and plays with your senses. Featuring new photography, this lavishly illustrated book will provide a fresh look at the sumptuous Chinoiserie interiors of the Royal Pavilion and their enduring appeal. Drawing on recent research, conservation projects, and the unprecedented loan exhibition A Prince’s Treasure: From Buckingham Palace to the Royal Pavilion (2019–22), this book celebrates the colours and sensual beauty of these interiors while situating the Royal Pavilion in the context of the time of its creation and development under royal ownership, from its beginning in the wake of the French Revolution, through its transformation and extension during and just after the Napoleonic Wars, to its fate and legacy in the early Victorian era.

Il s'agit d'un matériau structurel doté de capacités d'isolation thermique et acoustique, d'un caractère écologique et de potentialités d'interventions en intérieur et en décoration quasi illimitées, sans mentionner des aspects plus subjectifs comme la chaleur, la texture et le toucher. Pour l'heure, le bois est considéré comme une matière première inépuisable et en ligne avec le concept de développement durable : l'application de techniques informatiques pour sa manipulation a dérivé vers une systématisation de la coupe ; l'apparition de multitudes de produits dérivés a optimisé le recyclage des rebuts ; les avancées sont avérées dans la conception et le fonctionnement de systèmes d'union et de fixation, la construction avec panneaux, les systèmes de réhabilitation fiables et les mécanismes biocides contre les nuisances pour la conservation et l'entretien du bois. Dérivé de ces progrès, le bois forme un élément essentiel de la construction préfabriquée, élaboré en grande partie en atelier et bénéficiant donc d'économies de temps et de possibilités d'utilisation de machines de pointe. De là, un produit léger, transportable et manipulable, pour un montage final sans exigences strictes de main d'œuvre spécialisée.

Résumé:
A member of the famous artist-owned photo agency Magnum Photos, Swiss photographer René Burri (1933–2014) found himself wherever history was happening during the late twentieth century. His countless travels took him across Europe and the Americas to the Middle East to Japan and China to document the twentieth century’s major events. His extraordinary sense for people and their personalities resulted in remarkably candid portraits of celebrities, such as architects Le Corbusier, Oscar Niemeyer, and Luis Barragán; artists Alberto Giacometti, Pablo Picasso, and Jean Tinguely; and Che Guevara, whose 1963 portrait with a cigar is one of the world’s most famous and widely reproduced photographic portraits. Published to coincide with a major exhibition at Musée de l’Elysée, Lausanne, 'René Burri: Explosions of Sight' draws from Burri’s vast archive. With the museum, Burri staged both his first exhibition and his first major retrospective and maintained a close relationship throughout his life, entrusting it also with the conservation of his estate. The book brings together for the first time Burri’s entire body of work, both photographic and nonphotographic, including previously unpublished archival documents, as well as book designs, exhibition projects, travel diaries, collages, watercolors, and objects Burri collected. In doing so, it offers a new and uniquely intimate view of one of the world’s greatest photographers.
