Résumé:
Exhibition design has become a significant architectural way to present an idea or a product; to communicate its meaning; to show its beauty; and, ideally, to increase sales. This book shows how trade fair and exhibition design projects have evolved into a perfect demonstration of architectural art: an art that combines the forming of space with the use of materials and lighting to achieve a convincing narrative and setting. Whether we find them in trade fairs or in museums, this book gathers the best recent installations, featured through full-color pictures, drawing plans, and sketches; and supplemented with descriptive text with practical information on manufacturers, furniture, and materials.

Résumé:
Seamlessly interweaving the new with the historic, the renovation by Selldorf Architects preserves The Frick Collection’s Gilded Age grandeur and sense of tranquillity while making more of the museum accessible and adding important new amenities. A museum of memorable rooms and superb Old Master holdings, The Frick Collection, the former home of industrialist Henry Clay Frick, is one of New York City’s most beloved art institutions. Designed by Thomas Hastings of the New York firm of Carrère and Hastings, the original Fifth Avenue mansion was completed in 1914 and served the Frick family until 1931. With John Russell Pope’s expansion of the mansion in 1935, which included the addition of a library (today’s esteemed Frick Art Research Library), the residence was converted into a public museum. The goal of the renovation was to honor the architectural legacy and unique contemplative atmosphere of the Frick while adding new space and critical infrastructure updates. Visitors will enjoy the enhanced functionality of the institution, and its improved climate controls will ensure the preservation of the collection and the house for generations to come.

Résumé:
A partir de documents d'archives et d'entretiens, B. Hamzeian rend compte des caractéristiques spécifiques du Centre Pompidou qui, à travers l'union de l'architecture, de l'ingénierie, de l'industrie, de la programmation et de l'informatique, incarne le concept de design total. Il met notamment en lumière les problématiques de l'architecture technomorphe. Au milieu des années 1970, au coeur de paris, prend forme une oeuvre qui cristallise le rêve d'une époque, celui d'unir les compétences de l'architecture, de l'ingénierie, de l'industrie, de l'aéronautique, de la programmation et de l'informatique pour transformer un bâtiment en une machine hautement technologique et interactive. Intrinsèquement mobile et flexible, au service de la foule. Il s'agit du centre Pompidou. À la veille d'une des plus grandes transformations jamais entreprises sur cet ouvrage, et grâce à l'utilisation de documents d'archives et d'entretiens inédits, il est temps de reconstituer la genèse et la mise au point de ses composantes fondamentales : des moules d'acier colossales à la limite des capacités techniques de l'époque, des organes techniques transformés en figures architecturales, une façade tridimensionnelle conçue pour accueillir des écrans pour informer la foule métropolitaine, une piazza ancrée au coeur de paris pour recueillir son flux vital, et un aménagement muséal conçu pour des transformations continues. Retracer l'évolution de ces composants est la clé pour comprendre une approche holistique au projet de la construction qui porte le nom de total design.

Résumé:
A pavilion of cycles at Expo in Hanover. An interdisciplinary work involving architecture, scenography, graphics, sound, light, film, drama and an actual tornado, created by Atelier Brückner for the Expo 2000. Dual System Deutschland, a company which is responsible for the reuse and recycling of packaging in Germany commissioned the Stuttgart firm Atelier Brückner to create a pavilion at the EXPO in Hanover which would reflect the company's vision of combining the product cycle with the environment and use of resources in a responsible way. The journey through this cycle is represented visually through the architecture and staging of the pavilion. Living plants, real objects, information, light and sound are brought together and provide an exciting backdrop for the dramatic highlight - a 25m high tornado which was generated every hour. This book shows primarily creative process leading to the final design and architecture of the Cyclebowl. Enhanced with technical details of the innovative facades, the publication is a fascinating documentation of architecture as a means of conveying ideas.

Résumé:
Photographer Annie Leibowitz collaborates with American Express on a portrait exhibition. Absolut Vodka engages artists for their advertisements. Philip Morris mounts an "Arts Against Hunger" campaign in partnership with prominent museums. Is it art or PR, and where is the line that separates the artistic from the corporate? According to Mark Rectanus, that line has blurred. These mergers of art, business, and museums, he argues, are examples of the worldwide privatization of cultural funding. In Culture Incorporated, Rectanus calls for full disclosure of corporate involvement in cultural events and examines how corporations, art institutions, and foundations are reshaping the cultural terrain. In turn, he also shows how that ground is destabilized by artists subverting these same institutions to create a heightened awareness of critical alternatives. Rectanus exposes how sponsorship helps maintain social legitimation in a time when corporations are the target of significant criticism. He provides wide-ranging examples of artists and institutions grappling with corporate sponsorship, including artists' collaboration with sponsors, corporate sponsorship of museum exhibitions, festivals, and rock concerts, and cybersponsoring. Throughout, Rectanus analyzes the convergence of cultural institutions with global corporate politics and its influence on our culture and our communities. Mark W. Rectanus is professor of German at Iowa State University.

Résumé:
"Prenant appui sur les politiques institutionnelles, l'auteur montre comment le musée virtuel résulte en fait d'une interprétation du support numérique qui en hypostasie la portée spectaculaire au lieu d'en favoriser l'appréhension documentaire. Le musée virtuel réaliserait ainsi la parfaite concrétisation des objectifs économiques et éducatifs du musée, en parfaite résonnance avec le régime d'industrialisation culturelle qui règle la fréquentation du patrimoine. Mais au-delà, c'est bien du devenir de l'institution muséale dont il est question. Plutôt que de prédire la disparition de l'institution au profit de son avatar virtuel, on choisit d'ancrer ici l'interrogation dans l'histoire des relations qui unissent l'oeuvre d'art et le musée, depuis deux siècles. L'extrême plasticité du musée est mise à jour : ne serait-il pas apte à conserver et légitimer les propositions d'un art numérique aussi délocalisé soit-il? Déjà rôdé à l'absorption d'oeuvres reproductibles, de traces ou d'intentions, le musée d'art contemporain déjoue perpétuellement sa fin prévisible. Cette fois-ci la métamorphose le porte du côté de la médiathèque. Le devenir du musée se nourrit d'une perception essentiellement documentaire du patrimoine artistique. Incorporé aux industries de la mémoire, le musée nous projette désormais dans un passé actualisé et un présent pérenne."
