Résumé:
Based in Mallorca, Aulets is an architecture practice working across design, research, teaching, and action. It understands architecture as a means of making a territory habitable for a community through the resources available in a specific place. The work of Aulets therefore extends beyond constructing buildings to encompass the activation of new productive processes and the transformation of these practices within schools of architecture. Its activities range from regeneration of vulnerable neighbourhoods and the adaptation of public space for climate change to initiatives such as forest conservation. The magazine introduces Aulets across three sections: Earth, Stone, and Wood.

Résumé:
This monograph of French illustrator and cartoonist Jochen Gerner follows a research and thought process concerning the connections between text and image, typography and line, and includes numerous examples of his work. In his drawing practice, Gerner creates visual narrative projects, such as illustrated books and experimental comics, as well as drawings for the world of publishing and print media. Since the early 2000s, he has investigated printed images through graphic means: a hijacking process using ink and paint that allows a method of reframing or erasing. The book includes texts by Christophe Gallois and an interview with Gerner by Tom McCarthy.

Résumé:
Ever since the nineteen-nineties, curatorial discourse has revolved around the figure of the professional curator. Consequently, curatorial politics is usually considered the direct result of a curator's deliberate acts and intentions. Now, however, new institutional models and modes of exhibition practice together with key shifts in funding and collecting strategies have revealed aspects of curatorial politics over which the exhibition-maker has little or no control. The present volume presents a series of essays by noted art theorists and cultural scientists that go beyond the perspective of the individual curator to reveal these previously unexplored levels of curatorial politics.

Résumé:
Batia Suter’s work intuitively situates found images in new contexts to provoke surprising reactions and significative possibilities. ‘Parallel Encyclopedia’, which she conceived between 2004 and 2007, contains a precise composition of numerous images taken solely from other books. Significant underlying themes expressed in the Amsterdam-based, Swiss artist’s practice are the “iconification” and “immunogenicity” of old images, and the circumstances by which they assume or become charged with new associative values. This is a reprint of Suter’s voluminous book, originally published in 2007 and covering a pictorial plethora of human history, science, philosophy, art, and culture.

Résumé:
This book brings together ideas and projects that seek to define a new role for design based on empathy. As a mediator of emotions and feelings, design is presented here as a practice that takes care as its main purpose. Designers adopt sensitive, diplomatic, sometimes therapeutic functions, with the aim of connecting us with one another but also with the world around us, with other species, with soil, water and even the universe. In this book, the reader will find new ideas, utopian propositions but also practical solutions for reinterpreting and reconnecting with the world around them.

Marc Nagtzaam’s artistic practice is based on a single theme: the idea of pattern and repetition. He draws lines, grids, circles, and words or sentences in an endless search, as if collecting pieces of information.

Résumé:
Marc Nagtzaam’s artistic practice is based on a single theme: the idea of pattern and repetition. He draws lines, grids, circles, and words or sentences in an endless search, as if collecting pieces of information. The repetition and graphic structure is particularly reminiscent of minimal or conceptual aesthetics. His source material is reduced through basic, elementary means, wherein dots, lines, and flat surfaces construct a sort of structure. Although a large number of his drawings consist of colourless surfaces, darkly filled with graphite, ‘Farben’ is true to its name and presents a series of works in colour.

Résumé:
This book explores the history of the survey and its multiple forms in order to understand how the methods of recording what already exists can also be used to imagine what might be. Lavishly illustrated, with works from the collection of Drawing Matter and beyond, it addresses the multiple forms of the survey through focused studies and an extensive section of plates with commentaries by contemporary architects. In doing so, it maintains that while all surveys begin with the site, the outcomes are as idiosyncratic as their authors – and their methods have much to offer as tools in design practice.
