Das Andere | The Other

 In 1903, Adolf Loos, one of the sharpest and most influential architects and critics of the twentieth century, edited the astonishing journal Das Andere (The Other), subtitled A Journal for the Introduction of Western Culture into Austria. Only two issues were published of what is today considered one of the most important documents of modernity - a radical, at times shocking statement in which nothing was off limits, from fashion to masturbation. The journal, a manual for modern life, was entirely written by Loos and born out of his aversion to the hypocrisy and superficial aestheticization of life in Austria, which he saw embodied by the Secession movement and the Wiener Werkstätte. As a counterbalance, Das Andere proclaimed Loos’s admiration for the fashion and culture of England and America. He scrutinizes every element of contemporary life with an acerbic wit. This facsimile edition allows today’s readers to discover Loos’s little magazine anew, which takes us directly to the heart of his polemical position. It is accompanied by a commentary and the English translation. Beatriz Colomina supplements the facsimile with an extensive critical introduction.

 Europe City: Lessons from the European Prize for Urban Public Space presents a multifaceted and diverse collection of ideas about European public space and its social, cultural and economic significance. The interdisciplinary approach is based on seven themes: memory, mobility, mixture, margins, waterfronts, marketplaces and democracy. Public space as the intrinsic element that binds the European urban experience together acts as a common thread that guides readers through the book. Selected projects of diverse scales illustrate the wide-ranging reflections and demonstrate the impact of public spaces on residents of urban environments. In addition, the book features a historic overview of European communal spaces as well as observations by international experts and authors. The European Prize for Urban Public Space is an initiative of the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona (CCCB). The award is intended to celebrate outstanding designs of public spaces.

 Shanshui City is the latest book from MAD Architects’ founder and principal partner, Ma Yansong. The English edition features art direction from Kenya Hara with essays by key Western and Eastern contributors, such as Hans Ulrich Obrist & Lorenza Baroncelli, and Wang Mingxian. The publishing of Shanshui City coincides with MAD Architects’ 10th founding anniversary. Ma’s poetic, yet precise language details the development and practice of the Shanshui City design philosophy, in which "architects should delineate a new ideal for the city of the future, to gradually construct an urban environment that embodies both the convenience of the modern city and the ancient Eastern affinity for the natural world." Extending contact with the natural world, Shanshui is an idealized Chinese worldview to seek and integrate spiritual refuge in nature among the everyday life of humanity. Shanshui City is not simply an eco-city, or a garden-city, nor does it imply modeling the city’s architecture on natural forms such as mountains; rather, it represents humanity’s affinity for the natural world and our quest for inner fulfillment, as expressed in philosophies of the East.

Kenzo Tange – Architecture for the World - Architecture For The World

EM STOCK

 Kenzo Tange (1913-2005) is a peerless figure among twentieth-century Japanese architects, unmatched in his talent, influence, and versatility. A leading force of the Metabolist movement, he was the first non-Western architect whose works would be embraced as universal in value. This unique assemblage of new scholarship by an international team of experts reframes Tange according to the contingencies of Japanese modernism as well as contemporary discourses of cultural identity, technology, urbanization, and the synthesis of the arts. Case studies on celebrated works—Hiroshima, Tokyo Bay Plan, and Yoyogi Stadiums—clarify Tange’s wide-ranging interests and design methodology. Abundantly illustrated with archival drawings and period photographs, this volume provides fresh and compelling perspectives on the practices, discourses, and production contexts of Tange’s work as well as the architecture and urbanism of postwar Japan. Kenzo Tange—Architecture for the World represents the most serious and comprehensive reassessment of Tange in the English language in decades.

Le Corbusier’s Pavilion for Zurich - Model and prototype of an ideal exhibition space

de Catherine Dumont D'Ayot e Tim Benton

EM STOCK

 Le Corbusier’s Pavilion for Zurich uses numerous handwritten documents, drawings, and papers to trace the history of Le Corbusier’s last built work. This dwelling, which is also a museum, was initiated by Zürich gallery owner Heidi Weber. With its abstract forms and colors, it represents an intellectual legacy of the famous architect in which the further development of architecture as envisaged by Le Corbusier is clearly legible. From the first ideas and sketches from and beyond, the genesis of this exceptional building—the completion of which the architect did not live to see—is presented with lavish use of illustrations and documents. This book explains for the first time the significance of the pavilion, which differs strongly from the beton brut of Le Corbusier’s late work, in terms of its position as one of the architect’s central and forward-looking works.

 What is it that gives places their individual qualities and defines the life of a city? Architects and urbanists are accustomed to describing and creating the organizational structures, the layouts and physical attributes of our cities. But what are the relations between the design of a city—its form—and the life engendered by that form? Responding to this question is the inspiration for In the Life of Cities. Contributors from a wide range of fields address the inseparability of urban life and urban form. Portfolios of contemporary photography assert the layered realities of urban life today. With contributions by Arjun Appadurai, Eve Blau, Svetlana Boym, Lindsay Bremner, Jana Cephas, Felipe Correa, Rahul Mehrotra, Mohsen Mostafavi, Antoine Picon, Gyan Prakash, Nasser Rabbat, Rafi Segal, Jorge Silvetti, AbdouMaliq Simone, and Charles Waldheim. Featured cities: Baku, Bucharest, Buenos Aires, Cairo, Caracas, Chicago, Dakar, Detroit, Hong Kong, Houston, Jakarta , Johannesburg, London, Moscow, Mumbai, Paris, Quito, São Paulo, St. Petersburg, Tel Aviv, Tirana, Tokyo, and Toronto.

The Private Palladio

EM STOCK

 Andrea Palladio’s Renaissance villa architecture is still admired for its elegance and harmony, but little is known about the person behind the buildings. Experienced Palladio researcher Guido Beltramini has worked meticulously on material from historical documents about Palladio’s person and life and assembled a full picture of the architect. The Private Palladio follows his career, his rise from being the ordinary miller’s son Pietro della Gondola to become the architect Andrea Palladio. Beltramini does not just explore Palladio’s origins, his training as a stonemason, and his complex relationship with powerful clients and scholars, but also his private life: his jovial character, his life as a married man with five children, and not least his profound conviction that architecture can and must enrich life. The text is complemented by numerous illustrations.

 In the 1920s and 1930s, the Villa Foscari in Venice, better known as La Malcontenta, became a meeting place for intellectuals, artists, and members of the nobility such as Serge Diaghilev, Boris Kochno, Serge Lifar, Winston Churchill, Robert Byron, Diana Cooper, and Le Corbusier. It was an era of inspiring encounters between aristocrats, the avantgarde, snobs, and intellectuals that ended when Italy entered World War II. Antonio Foscari recounts this lively period in the building’s history and talks about its then owner, Bertie Landsberg, and his friends Catherine de Rochegude, Baroness of Erlanger, and Paul Rodocanachi, who not only lovingly renovated the villa, but made it such a lively place for the first time. The text is complemented by numerous photographs dating from this exciting time that convey an impression of what was happening in the villa in those days.

Landscape as the Cabinet of Curiosities - Conversations With Gunther Vogt

de Gunther Vogt

40,00€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

portes grátis

EM STOCK

 If there is no such thing as nature as a whole, perhaps there is landscape as a cabinet of curiosities. Thereby, in the best of cases, this lack of wholeness seems to be a gain rather than a loss. What is required for this kind of reinterpretation is an attentive observer who collects the various phenomena as individual elements, relates them to each other and rearranges them. Günther Vogt is one such collector, and his cabinet of curiosities can reveal both landscapes and his approach to them. With reference to five different locations, Günther Vogt speaks about current themes of landscape architecture and its relationship to architecture and the city, about his teaching at the ETH Zurich, and about the work of Vogt Landscape Architects. This book can, in a way, itself be read as a cabinet of curiosities, for it offers an insight into the complex cosmos of Günther Vogt’s thought and work, and ultimately asks about a position.
