Résumé:
In the late 18th century, surveyors divided the Midwestern United States into the Jefferson Grid: a system of neat, one-by-one-mile squares. But because the earth is round, the lines tapered to the north. Therefore the grid had to be corrected: every 20 miles, grid corrections brought theory and practice back together.

Résumé:
In the late 18th century, surveyors divided the Midwestern United States into the Jefferson Grid: a system of neat, one-by-one-mile squares. But because the earth is round, the lines tapered to the north. Therefore the grid had to be corrected: every 20 miles, grid corrections brought theory and practice back together. Pilot and aerial photographer Gerco de Ruijter (born 1961) first spotted these small bends and T-junctions while completing a residency in Wichita; then, with the help of Google Earth, De Ruijter found thousands of these corrections. Presenting De Ruijter’s selection of over 250 photocollage grid corrections—snowed under or dried up, in cities and in deserts—and featuring an exceptional design by Irma Boom, this publication is a testimony to the human urge to design the landscape and the ways in which nature responds to that urge.

Résumé:
Collecting writings from artists, theorists and artist residency facilitators, “Contemporary Artist Residencies” examines the present role of the residency for artists and the international art ecosystem. With a range of discussions on the continuously evolving role of residencies in our political and historical moment, the book also examines residencies’ varied attempts at “reclaiming time and space” for artistic practice while serving as nodes for collaboration, research, and critical thinking—not to mention a crucial and sought-after means of promoting artists’ career development and the international circulation of their work. The book features contributions by Pascal Gielen, Livia Alexander, Nathalie Anglès, Helmut Batista and Taru Elfving, among others. The latest of Valiz’s “Antennae” series of books designed by Metahaven, “Contemporary Artist Residencies” helps to fill the surprising gap in books about how and why residencies function in today’s art world.

Résumé:
The environmental impact of interior architecture and design practice is immense. This book highlights the need for designers to adapt the way they work and relearn lessons that have been lost. Contrary to many preconceptions, sustainable design can be sophisticated and stylish. And by its nature, a sustainable approach means considering the whole life cycle of a project and therefore improving the functionality, quality, human enjoyment and, in the long term, bringing real social and economic benefits. This book has examples, techniques, and historical and contemporary case studies, all supported by useful resources and links. A comprehensive reference book for anyone wanting to work in this area, Sian Moxon aims to introduce these ideas to design students while they are formulating their understanding of the industry, encouraging and inspiring them with positive, creative and practical alternatives.

Résumé:
Thomas Demand’s photographic practice - the depiction of meticulously recreated life-size interiors and environments - takes on a new twist with this volume. The Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles is home to the architectural maquettes of architect John Lautner, whose buildings are highlights of Californian architecture. Lautner’s space-age structures - such as the legendary “Chemosphere,” a four-bedroom house resembling a flying saucer, mounted atop a 20-foot concrete pillar - are particularly toy-like in their maquette versions, and for this project, Demand photographed 12 of these models in close-up detail. Model Studies includes more than 130 color images of Lautner’s models. With this volume, Demand, who has always been concerned with the intersections of art and architecture, now looks at the architect as sculptor, paying tribute to Lautner on the centenary of the architect’s birth.

Résumé:
Museums often stir controversy when they deaccession works—formally remove objects from permanent collections—with some critics accusing them of betraying civic virtue and the public trust. In fact, Martin Gammon argues in ''Deaccessioning and Its Discontents,'' deaccession has been an essential component of the museum experiment for centuries. Gammon offers the first critical history of deaccessioning by museums from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century, and exposes the hyperbolic extremes of “deaccession denial”—the assumption that deaccession is always wrong—and “deaccession apology”—when museums justify deaccession by finding some fault in the object—as symptoms of the same misunderstanding of the role of deaccessions in proper museum practice. He chronicles a series of deaccession events in Britain and the United States that range from the disastrous to the beneficial, and proposes a typology of principles to guide future deaccessions.

Résumé:
The artist Michael Webb, trained as an architect, operates at the intersection of art and architecture and is widely known for creatively exploring the outer limits of drawing techniques, including orthographic and perspectival projection systems. He is a founding member of Archigram, which formed at the Architectural Association in London in the early 1960s. The legendary avant-garde group is known for their fantastical projects that were often interpreted as critiques of contemporary architectural theory and practice. "Two Journeys" is the first comprehensive monograph on Webb’s oeuvre and assembles sixty years of the artist’s work into a continuously evolving narrative about the multifaceted relationships among the built environment, landscape, and moving vehicles. He investigates these relationships through the act of drawing using notions of time, space, and speed, which are artfully mediated by the precision of mathematics and tempered by abstraction.

In this publication, Crowner devotes her attention to patterns from a range of sources: from those found in nature and the built environment to fashion and the plastic arts. Juxtaposed throughout this selection are images from Crowner’s recent work, specifically her recent paintings, murals and tiled floors.
