Résumé:
Born out of the Portuguese revolution of 1974, the Serviço Ambulatório de Apoio Local (SAAL) was one of the most compelling processes in 20th-century architecture. A pioneering experiment in Europe, it set up technical teams led by architects who, in collaboration with the local population, tried to address the urgent housing needs of communities across the nation. The teams were reinventing architectural practice, from surveying living conditions to monitoring land expropriation, designing projects with the residents directly. This volume includes new essays along with historic texts, an interview with some of the major figures involved, and extensive project documentation. An exhibition by the Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Serralves, The SAAL Process will be presented at the CCA in Spring 2015.

Résumé:
The Ben Ezra Synagogue in Cairo is best known as the synogogue in which the "Cairo Geniza" was found--an astonishingly rich store of ancient books, manuscripts, correspondences, and records dating back to the tenth century. Copiously illustrated with plans, engravings, and photographs, "Fortifications and the Synagogue" describes the recent restoration of this ancient synagogue, as well as the historical and archaeological research essential to its preservation and to an understanding of the religious communities that founded modern Cairo. The work is unprecedented in its comprehensive examination of the subject, presenting the first measured survey and photographic study of the fortress and synagogue, the first thorough study of the Geniza manuscripts, and a complete history of the synagogue from the Geniza period to the present.

Résumé:
The 1960s and 1970s were the heroic age of the architectural "little magazine". During this period even commercial periodicals were willing to include theoretical discourse as they catered to a profession confronted by radical social change. These essays by nine international architectural scholars are from the Proceedings of the International Colloquium held in 2004 at the Canadian Centre for Architecture. They enrich our understanding of a format which monopolized the space for professional debate about what mattered most in architecture at the time. These contributions give architectural periodicals a central place in the historical debates on the period with particular emphasis on material production, intellectual contribution, and critical reception. Six essays in English and three essays in French with a bilingual introduction. Neuf historiens en architecture examinent l’architecture radicale dans la presse parallèle des années 1960 et 1970. Ces périodiques novateurs ont été marqués par les idées expérimentales et les designs avant-gardistes qui ont grandement influencées le discours architectural de la période. Actes du colloque tenu en 2004 au Centre Canadien d'Architecture. Six textes en anglais, trois textes en français avec une introduction bilingue.

Résumé:
Dick Higgins, founder of Something Else Press (1964-1974), created the Great Bear imprint to publish pamphlets that were quickly printed and easily disseminated, guaranteeing wide distribution and accessibility. Ranging in length from 16 to 32 pages, saddle-stitched and printed on varying color stock, these booklets showcased the work of some of the most innovative writers and artists across the twentieth century. All pamphlets have been out of print since their original publications in the 1960s. Thanks to the editorial initiative Primary Information from New York they are now available again, and the CCA bookstore carries all of them in stock.
