Résumé:
The eponymous catalogue for an exhibition by Swiss architects Gramazio & Kohler in collaboration with systems engineer Raffaello D'Andrea, shown at the Frac Centre in Orléans. The book presents a fascinating exploration of their perspectives and multidisciplinary interests, ranging from computational design and robots to material innovation, plus research on architecture, system design and autonomous robotic technologies. Through detailed diagrams and texts, it gives insight into the exhibitions realisation in which an architectural installation was constructed by flying robots and reveals radical new ways of both thinking about and materialising architecture.

Résumé:
Carried out by designers Moniek Driesse and Annelys de Vet, along with Analía Solomonoff, the Subjective Atlas of Mexico is part of a series of previous subjective atlases where a varied group of artists, designers and photographers who choose personal topics as a starting point to map their cultural identity. Each were asked: what makes a Mexican? what are our likenesses and what differences do we share? Through its pages the scope of Mexico as a country limited by its borders and its latitudes suddenly vanishes and everyday practices take on new meaning. We can find Mexico reflected in the world, and the world reflected in Mexico. A DVD is included.

Is it possible to draw a portrait of contemporary Hungary with only one pencil, held by many? Could we map this country at all with its controversial optimism and pessimism, proud and poetry in one single book? Fifty young visual authors were invited by new media lab Kitchen and Dutch designer Annelys de Vet to put their homeland in perspective. Together they shed light on the Hungarian spirit, today, from the most characteristic vernacular buildings to waterside houses and recycled fences, from wine spritzer and salty sticks to vegetable gardens and sold-out products.

Some of these landscapes are "natural" ones and continue an overtly picturesque tradition, like for instance his arresting photographs of rocks and forest landscapes. Others may come across as "natural" but upon close examination they reveal the traces of man's intervention.

Résumé:
In connection with ‘Europalia Brasil’, the Antwerp Museum of Contemporary Art hosts a special exhibition of art that is rooted in the street grid of Rio de Janeiro. The catalogue ‘A Rua’ (the street) brings together the work of some twenty Brazilian artists whose life and work is connected with the fascinating metropolis. ‘A Rua’ zooms in on the street itself as an artistic hotbed, as a place where art and life meet, and as a studio, workshop and décor for art. It also explores the downside of the street.
