Résumé:
Bernard Rudofsky was neither an architect nor a theorist in the usual sense. At the start of his career he completed a number of houses in Italy and Brazil, where he employed the formal language of the Modernists even though his writings appear to indicate he rejected their teachings. From the 1940s onwards, Rudofsky was primarily engaged as a critic and culture(...)

Résumé:
Bernard Rudofsky was neither an architect nor a theorist in the usual sense. At the start of his career he completed a number of houses in Italy and Brazil, where he employed the formal language of the Modernists even though his writings appear to indicate he rejected their teachings. From the 1940s onwards, Rudofsky was primarily engaged as a critic and culture theorist who did not just write about architecture and design, but also on topics such as clothing, shoes, eating and bathing. The common element behind all of these activities, though, was the human body, and his lamentation of the loss of sensual awareness. This comprehensive show on Bernard Rudofsky provides detailed information on his life, his travels, his various activities as an architect, designer, exhibition-maker, author and theorist, as well as about the life he shared with his wife, Berta Rudofsky. Bernard Rudofsky made a large number of exhibitions during his widely travelled and cosmopolitan life, however there has never been an exhibition about him and his work. This exhibition, the first on Bernard Rudofsky in the world, has not been conceived as a classical retrospective. The aim is to make the cosmopolitan Rudofsky's complex architectural concept and concept of how to live accessible to a broad public, and to address his relevance for today.

Résumé:
Pourquoi est-ce que les (bons) tabourets ont trois pieds ? Pourquoi est-ce que la canne de Charlot se plie lorsqu’il s’appuie dessus ? Pourquoi conserve-t-on mieux son équilibre dans un bus en écartant les pieds ? Des questions assez simples dont la réponse permet cependant de comprendre des procédés de construction en apparence très complexes, tels que les ponts suspendus ou la tour Eiffel. Discussions à bâtons rompus de l’élève et du professeur, croquis illustratifs, encadrés historiques et techniques dédiés aux chefs d’oeuvre en matière de conception, exemples humoristiques... Le lecteur est invité à voyager de façon très didactique « au pays des structures ».
