Résumé:
Dans cet entretien mené par Philippe Ungar, Roger Taillibert revient sur son parcours, ses expériences, les lieux et les rencontres qui ont orienté son travail de création : Le Corbusier bien sûr, Gropius, Franck Lloyd Wright mais surtout Alvar Aalto qui lui fait prendre conscience, en Finlande, dès 1959, de l’importance du détail. Roger Taillibert évoque alors sa manière de travailler, les "visions" en trois dimensions qui s’imposent à lui d’abord floues, elles se précisent à travers les nombreux croquis qu’il réalise sur ses carnets, les intuitions qu’il faut défendre auprès des clients… Il insiste par-dessus tout sur la nécessité de penser l’homme dans le lieu, sans quoi toute architecture est vaine et "toxique". Cette ouvrage met en valeur cette résonnance entre architecture et peinture en proposant un parallèle inédit entre les plus grandes réalisations de l’architecte et ses recherches picturales.

Résumé:
Colonial Modern: Aesthetics of the Past, Rebellions for the Future is a reader on the relationship between modernism and the project of modernisation in architecture, as well as the intertwining of both in the context of colonialism and decolonisation. It focuses on the dual topics of the relationship between the post-war aesthetic regime of modernism and the project of modernization in architecture and urban planning, as well as on the highly charged intertwining of both in the context of colonialism and decolonization. It is based on the exhibition In the Desert of Modernity: Colonial Planning and After , which traced these connected histories of modern architecture and urban planning in colonial northern Africa and Europe, and was first exhibited in 2008 at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin, Germany. The book reflects contemporary research into architectural modernism and colonialism, and utilizes the thesis of “negotiated modernism” to initiate new debates on conceptions of modernism and, inevitably, postmodernism in an interdisciplinary context.
