Résumé:
A marriage of photography and criticism, this volume celebrates details of Baltimore's architectural heritage and explores both familiar and unnoticed places. Photographer James DuSel and art critic John Dorsey have created a book that leads from images to thoughts, and they invite readers to follow the same path. DuSel's black-and-white photographs focus on details of larger images: the bottom of a doorway, the corner of a portico, the wall of a shoe repair shop, the substructure of a bridge. Dorsey ruminates on these images, and he draws connections between Baltimore's visual vocabulary and the tapestry of civilization. He carries us from a window in Roland Park to the triumphal arch of Constantine in Rome, from a stairway at the Maryland Institute to the Doge's Palace in Venice, from a vine at the Baltimore museum of art to Shakespeare. DuSel and Dorsey, through a studious appreciation of detail, encourage us to look at our built environment afresh and discover a new and more meaningful relationship with our surroundings. Shaking off what DuSel calls "the anesthesia of daily life," "Look again in Baltimore" offers arresting insights into the richness of the everyday world.

Résumé:
Should the Director’s House Gropius in Dessau, a masterpiece of modernism, be rebuilt? Is there any reason from a cultural-historical viewpoint for such a conservative approach?

Résumé:
Should the Director’s House Gropius in Dessau, a masterpiece of modernism, be rebuilt? Is there any reason from a cultural-historical viewpoint for such a conservative approach? Should an attempt be made to continue the traditions of Bauhaus, or should we be discussing whether contemporary tasks and aims are commensurate to those of the past? What role do modern principles play in today’s architecture? What is our attitude towards reconstruction? What can be expected from alternative approaches such as manipulation, collage, neutralization, redefinition, reinterpretation or entirely new design? The book „UmBauhaus – Aktualisierung der Moderne“ examines these and other questions, seeking to introduce and continue the debate concerning the Director’s House that was destroyed during the Second World War. At the peak of the debate on the reconstruction of the Gropius Director's House, the Bauhaus pulled out and decided to take a trip to record interviews. This became a lengthy, inspirational journey through current affairs, and a search for the future of modernism. With contribution from Rem Koolhaas, Dan Wieden, Oscar Niemeyer, Jonathan Park, Hans Kollhoff, Walter de'Silva, colleagues of the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation and many others.

Résumé:
"The Education of the Eye" examines the origins of visual culture in eighteenth-century Britain. It claims that at the moment when works of visual art were first displayed and contemplated as aesthetic objects, two competing descriptions of the viewer or spectator promoted two very different accounts of culture. The first was constructed on knowledge, on what one already knew, while the second was grounded in the eye itself. Whereas the first was most likely to lead to a socially and politically elite form of visual cutlure, the second, it was held, would almost certainly end up in the chaos of the mob. But there was another route through these conflicting accounts of the visual that preserved the education of the eye while at the same time allowing the eye freedom to enter into the realm of culture. This third route, that of sentimental look, is explored in a series of contexts: the gallery, the pleasure garden, the landscape park, and the country house. This book sets out to reclaim visual culture for the democracy of the eye and to explain how aesthetic contemplation may, once more, be open to all who have eyes to look.

Résumé:
Anish Kapoor is one of a highly inventive generation of sculptors who emerged in London in the early 1980s. Since then he has created a remarkable body of work that blends a modernist sense of pure materiality with a fascination for the manipulation of form and the perception of space. This book - the first major American publication on Kapoor's work - surveys his work since 1979, with a focus on sculptures and installations made since the early 1990s. With more than ninety color images of these ambitious and complex works, three original essays, an extended interview with Kapoor, and selections from his sketchbooks, this book confirms Anish Kapoor's place as one of the most remarkable sculptors working today. Kapoor's work has evolved into an abstract and perceptually complex elaboration of the sculptural object as at once monumental and evanescent, physical and ethereal - as in his famous Cloud Gate (2004) in Chicago's Millennium Park. The works in Anish Kapoor include such striking works as Past, Present, Future (2006), 1000 Names (1979-1980) and When I Am Pregnant (1992). Includes an interview with the artist by Nicholas Baume. Copublished with the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston

Soutenue et financée par le ministère de la Culture et la Ville de Paris, cette étude avait pour but de dessiner le Grand Paris du XXIe siècle à la fois créatif et durable, « la » priorité du protocole de Kyoto et du Grenelle de l'environnement. Une gare Europe à Aubervilliers, le bois de Vincennes transformé en Central Park, les toits de Paris couverts d'une forêt de panneaux solaires, un réseau de transports aussi performant que le métro de Fulgence Bienvenüe, des ministères en périphérie, Le Havre à l'horizon maritime de la métropole, voici un aperçu du Grand Paris 2030 tel qu'il se dessine en pointillés. Le propos de ce livre – fruit d'un travail d'investigation de neuf mois – est destiné à un large public qui appréciera la pertinence de chacune de ces propositions. Des jalons pour l'avenir.

En Angleterre, sur l’autre rive de la Manche, de la même façon, l’artiste a symétriquement parcouru la côte vers l’ouest en partant d’Eastbourne jusqu’au cap Lizard en Cornouailles, pour, parvenue à l’extrémité de la péninsule, revenir vers Maer Cliff près de Bude, au nord-ouest du Dartmoor National Park, face au pays de Galles. Ce que l’on voit ici est d’une nature indéterminée et tient aussi bien du relevé topographique que de la photographie de paysage. Très peu de ciel, voire pas du tout dans ces images qu’il est quasi impossible de situer si l’on n’a pas repéré sur une carte l’endroit où elles ont été prises. Que l’on soit en France ou de l’autre côté de la Manche, rien ne permet de le comprendre vraiment.
