Résumé:
Following the Second World War, Montreal earned a reputation as a North American hotbed of eroticism due to its red-light district, nightclub scene, and pornography industry. Although this erotic environment had a significant presence in the art and media of the period, the topic has been neglected by scholars. "The pornographic delicatessen" offers an important examination of the development of erotic art and design in the city’s postwar and Quiet Revolution era. Matthew Purvis surveys a range of erotic materials to rediscover nearly forgotten artworks in a period that expanded definitions of what could be considered art. He stresses the confluence of visual art and film, magazines, and journalism during the period as formal models passed from surrealism and automatism into the evolution of a Quebec-specific variation of Pop Art called "ti-pop."

Résumé:
Following the 1968 earthquake in Sicily, plans were produced for the total reconstruction of the destroyed town of Gibellina, inspired by the models of the English New Towns. After an initial phase in which international architects and artists participated in the urban redesign, in the late 1970s a series of seminars and workshops was held at the University of Palermo to take stock of the reconstruction. Oswald Mathias Ungers (1926–2007) was then called to design the town’s central area, which was still undefined. His Civic Centre proposal reflected on the relationship between built and public space, and between city, monument, and history. Ultimately, however, little was realized.

Résumé:
Georges Teyssot, parmi les plus prolifiques théoriciens contemporains de l’architecture, s’est distingué par ses réflexions sur les rapports entre architecture, corps et technologie. Ses activités d’enseignement l’ont mené de Venise (IUAV) à Princeton (Princeton University), puis à Québec (Université Laval). Ses écrits, nourris par la philosophie, les sciences et l'histoire de l'art, ont profondément transformé la compréhension de l’architecture à travers des concepts novateurs sur la domesticité, les paysages et la techno-esthétique. "Le dispositif Teyssot: un relevé intellectuel" prend comme point de départ la bibliothèque personnelle du théoricien, composée de 7191 ouvrages, laquelle se révèle être bien plus qu’une simple collection : elle constitue un véritable dispositif intellectuel. Ce vaste réseau de savoirs, soigneusement répertorié, éclaire les multiples influences l’ayant nourri et inspire ici d’anciens collaborateurs et collègues qui proposent des regards critiques sur les concepts clés de son œuvre tout en suggérant de nouvelles perspectives.

Résumé:
This book was created with the utmost effort, dedication, and profound rigour, providing as much information as possible so that every reader can evaluate the project with full knowledge of the facts. On our part, we aimed to raise all the questions that readers might wish to ask about the architectural project, and Kengo Kuma generously and patiently answered them all. The publication contains three remarkable interviews. The architect Kengo Kuma, the author of the project, in the text he wrote for the book and in his interview, reveals his respect for Portugal through unusually strong words. The interview is not an easy one but once again emphasises and reveals the tribute he paid to that country, the respect he holds for it, and his clear intention to build bridges of friendship between Portugal and Japan.
