Résumé:
Olga Prader's engraved epic reminds me, surprisingly, more of Sartre's vision of hell in ‘Huis Close’ than of Picasso's ‘Suite Vollard’, although the strictly formally paraphrase of the latter is as obvious as brilliant. Prader's four elementary archetypes are suffering a predictable and repetitive social intercourse, their positions are locked and no major change in the(...)

Résumé:
Olga Prader's engraved epic reminds me, surprisingly, more of Sartre's vision of hell in ‘Huis Close’ than of Picasso's ‘Suite Vollard’, although the strictly formally paraphrase of the latter is as obvious as brilliant. Prader's four elementary archetypes are suffering a predictable and repetitive social intercourse, their positions are locked and no major change in the sequence is likely to happen (even if it does). The drawings, however, contains an exuberant dynamics. Prader, unlike most generation peers, is more oriented towards a subjective, imagination driven expression than smart and trendy stylistics.If you love Picasso, you will love Prader even more!

Résumé:
Julien Langendorff (1982) lives and works in Paris, France. His work combines papercuts, mysterious installations, raw pen and ink drawings with esoteric stream of conscious poetry that is both totally sincere and eerily haunting. The pencil drawings he made for this zine with Nieves conjure up visions influenced by gothic and hippie cultures, Black Sabbath, spiritism and diary-art, along the somehow dark teenage romantism that characterizes his art.

Architecture is often seen as the art of a thinking mind that arranges, organises and establishes relationships between the parts and the whole. It is also seen as the art of designing spaces, which we experience through movement and use.

Résumé:
Architecture is often seen as the art of a thinking mind that arranges, organises and establishes relationships between the parts and the whole. It is also seen as the art of designing spaces, which we experience through movement and use. Conceptual ordering, spatial and social narrative are fundamental to the ways in which buildings are shaped, used and perceived. Examining and exploring the ways in which these three dimensions interact in the design and life of buildings, this intriguing book will be of use to anyone with an interest in the theory of architecture and architecture's relationship to the cultural human environment.

Résumé:
Public space is changing. Where in earlier times people met each other on a public square it seems that now a hotel lobby is the desired designation. This change in the notion of what the public area exactly is forms one of the most crucial themes in current architectural debate – Where are shared spaces presently to be found where people can meet each other and develop and share a public meaning? This illustrated anthology brings together an impressive collection of writings by 36 leading architects, who have over the last fifty years presented different positions in relation to the debate over the idea and limits of what the public is, or should be. Contributors include: Aldo Rossi, Rem Koolhaas, Matthias Ungers, Daniel Libeskind, Peter Zumthor, Alison and Peter Smithson, Rob Krier, Ben van Berkel and Caroline Bos and Jean Nouvel.
