"Spolia" absorb energy from an external force and deform elastically. As archeological tools at (de)construction sites, they form hidden testaments to political dependencies, ecosystem clashes, art in galleries, even office tower elevators. Input: strange simultaneity of icons that are immediate, available, and ready to be transformed. Output: remnants reorganized to serve architecture and its demands. We look back to the future and ahead to the past. We persist in building, digging, finding, collecting, assembling to produce meaning.

Résumé:
Ernest Batchelder's ceramic tile making enterprise began as a modest backyard venture in rural Pasadena, California but quickly grew to prominence far beyond. New York, Minneapolis and Vancouver would soon become host to major Batchelder architectural ceramic installations. His clients ranged from restaurants to churches to high-rise office buildings but perhaps the most striking installations remain the many fireplaces gracing modest American bungalows throughout the country. This book represents the first comprehensive overview of his tilemaking.
