Résumé:
Mexican architect and painter Juan O'Gorman (1905–82) had a spectacular debut as an architect, designing his own house at the age of 24.

Résumé:
Mexican architect and painter Juan O'Gorman (1905–82) had a spectacular debut as an architect, designing his own house at the age of 24. On the strength of this building, Diego Rivera commissioned O'Gorman to design a pair of studio-houses for himself and Frida Kahlo on contiguous lots, connected by a bridge. But O'Gorman was somewhat forgotten in histories of modern architecture, until the restoration of Rivera's and Kahlo's house in the late 1990s led to a rediscovery of the architect's work and a reappraisal of his place in contemporary Mexican architecture. In 2013 O'Gorman's own first house, which he began designing in 1929 and completed in 1931, was restored. Uncompromisingly radical and rigorously functional, this design reveals O'Gorman as a Mexican pioneer of avant-garde architecture. Casa O'Gorman 1929 tells the story of this unique building.

Résumé:
Reinhold Martin’s Mediators is a series of linked meditations on the globalized city. Focusing on infrastructural, technical, and social systems, Martin explores how the aesthetics and the political economy of cities overlap and interact. He discusses a range of subjects, including the architecture of finance written into urban policy, regimes of enumeration that remix city and country, fictional ecologies that rewrite biopolitics, the ruins of socialism strewn amid the transnational commons, and memories of revolution stored in everyday urban hardware. For Martin, these mediators—the objects, processes, and imaginaries from which these phenomena emerge—serve to explain disparate fragments of a global urbanity.

Ses réalisations pour la Biennale de Venise, ses monographies de Piet Mondrian et Marcel Duchamp, ses collaborations avec Lucio Fontana et Arturo Martini et ses interventions dans de nombreux monuments historiques dessinent le parcours de l'un des architectes les plus subtils et originaux du XXe siècle, dont la prolifique carrière a profondément renouvelé l'art de l'exposition.

Résumé:
Si ses créations architecturales mondialement célèbres ont fait la renommée de Rudy Ricciotti, son franc-parler est tout aussi mythique. L'ouvrage En vain ! en est une illustration. L'architecte y égrenne ses considérations, tantôt mordantes, tantôt admiratives, mais toujours percutantes, au sujet de cinquante-neuf personnalités, d'Andy Warhol à Ettore Sottsass en passant par Pierre Soulages, Francis Bacon ou Claude Viallat. Ainsi, Malevitch se voit-il qualifier d' « assassin », tandis qu'Oscar Niemeyer se retrouve « à la droite de Dieu » mais « vit en enfer à cause de la bétonnière », tandis que Beuys est réduit à un « piètre pilote, dompteur de coyotes et grand reporter au Wall Street Journal ».
