Book Synopsis MIAS Architects at Centre Pompidou by : Josep Miàs
Download or read book MIAS Architects at Centre Pompidou written by Josep Miàs and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-01-12 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As a kid who wanted to be an architect you could either make clay shapes, drag pieces of driftwood into vague boxes—or put together Meccano cages. I followed the last option and surely so did Josep Miás". --Peter Cook Tracing through the pieces being published, you sense that Josep Miás is essentially a man who takes strips and edges and develops them into meshes, and then maybe combs, and then maybe honeycombs with a conspicuously boyish delight in making the sketch, the linear diagram, the scale model and the built building. Underlying the apparently fearless is a sense of what can fly, swing, lurch, lean or rest: in other words the composite that makes something possible to be as it is in space. MiAS Architects is an internationally recognized Architecture and Urbanism Studio, founded by Josep Miás in 2000, known for both its innovative experimental projects and its practice combining sustainable technology, innovative manufacturing and cutting edge construction practices.

Book Synopsis The Making of Beaubourg by : Nathan Silver
Download or read book The Making of Beaubourg written by Nathan Silver and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1997-02-24 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of how France's famed cultural icon, one of the most controversial and supremely public buildings of the century, was designed and built. Nathan Silver's detailed account of the Centre Pompidou -- still called Beaubourg by its designers, and by Parisians -- takes the form of a fascinating and insightful "building biography." Not just a book about a building but about the making of a building, this fresh, heterodox means of inquiry is a holistic reading of the intricate process of creating architecture in contemporary society that brings to light its human story, encompassing its stylistic, historical, technical, and social aspects. Beaubourg, Silver reveals, was unlike anything that had ever been built. A realization of ideals and aspirations of it architectural generation, a rethinking of fundamental precepts of design and construction, it took nothing for granted, and it has since become one of the most popular tourist attractions in Europe -- flaunting new principles that other architects have to come to terms with.
Download or read book Daniel Buren written by Daniel Buren and published by Centre Pompidou-Metz Editions. This book was released on 2011 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catalogue des expositions au MUDAM Luxembourg du 9 octobre 2010 au 22 mai 2011, au Centre Pompidou Metz du 8 mai au 9 septembre 2011 et au Centre Pompidou Metz du 30 septembre 2011 au 5 mars 2012. En 2010, le Mudam Luxembourg - Musée d'Art Moderne Grand-Duc Jean et le Centre Pompidou-Metz ont invité Daniel Buren à imaginer un projet spécifique dans leurs espaces respectifs. De ces expositions découle une expérience de l'espace situant au centre des œuvres la subjectivité du regard, la déambulation des spectateurs, et l'environnement dans lequel elles s'inscrivent. Plus rare dans l'œuvre de Daniel Buren, l'expérience est également ici temporelle. Tant au Mudam qu'au Centre Pompidou-Metz, le passage des heures, des jours, des saisons joue sur les œuvres et offre aux spectateurs une expérience toujours renouvelée.

Book Synopsis Century of the Child by : Juliet Kinchin
Download or read book Century of the Child written by Juliet Kinchin and published by The Museum of Modern Art. This book was released on 2012 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines individual and collective visions for the material world of children, from utopian dreams for the citizens of the future to the dark realities of political conflict and exploitation. Surveying more than 100 years of toys, clothing, playgrounds, schools, children's hospitals, nurseries, furniture, posters, animation and books, this richly illustrated catalogue illuminates how progressive design has enhanced the physical, intellectual, and emotional development of children and, conversely, how models of children's play have informed experimental aesthetics and imaginative design thinking.
Book Synopsis Consumerism, Waste, and Re-Use in Twentieth-Century Fiction by : Rachele Dini
Download or read book Consumerism, Waste, and Re-Use in Twentieth-Century Fiction written by Rachele Dini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines manufactured waste and remaindered humans in literary critiques of capitalism by twentieth-century writers associated with the historical avant-garde and their descendants. Building on recent work in new materialism and waste studies, Rachele Dini reads waste as a process or phase amenable to interruption. From an initial exploration of waste and re-use in three Surrealist texts by Giorgio de Chirico, André Breton, and Mina Loy, Dini traces the conceptualization of waste in the writing of Samuel Beckett, Donald Barthelme, J.G. Ballard, William Gaddis, and Don DeLillo. In exploring the relationship between waste, capitalism, and literary experimentation, this book shows that the legacy of the historical avant-garde is bound up with an enduring faith in the radical potential of waste. The first study to focus specifically on waste in the twentieth-century imagination, this is a valuable contribution to the expanding field of waste studies.
Book Synopsis Cesare Zavattini’s Neo-realism and the Afterlife of an Idea by : David Brancaleone
Download or read book Cesare Zavattini’s Neo-realism and the Afterlife of an Idea written by David Brancaleone and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many Zavattinis are there? During a life spanning most of the twentieth century, the screenwriter who wrote Sciuscià, Bicycle Thieves, Miracle in Milan, and Umberto D. was also a pioneering magazine publisher in 1930s Milan, a public intellectual, a theorist, a tireless campaigner for change within the film industry, a man of letters, a painter and a poet. This intellectual biography is built on the premise that in order to understand Zavattini's idea of cinema and his legacy of ethical and political cinema (including guerrilla cinema), we must also tease out the multi-faceted strands of his interventions and their interplay over time. The book is for general readers, students and film historians, and anyone with an interest in cinema and its fate.

Book Synopsis Art, Architecture and Design in Poland, 966-1990 by : Stefan Muthesius
Download or read book Art, Architecture and Design in Poland, 966-1990 written by Stefan Muthesius and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive history of Polish Art to appear outside Poland. Many areas of Poland boast works of Medieval art and Italian Renaissance. The refined 18th century was thoroughly imbued with the latest Italian, French and English fashions in design. The divided and dispossessed country of the 19th century then, developed its own national historical subjects and mythologies in painting which culminated in the work of the great artists of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. In the 20th Century Poland prided itself again in its participation in international Modernism, and Modern art reigned also for most of the decades after WW II., in church building and poster design. Compact yet comprehensive with 323 illustrations, with an extensive bibliography, geographical and historical maps this book serves as a work of reference as well as a guide. The lengthy Introduction takes on the history of Polish art history as a critical and academic discipline.
Book Synopsis The Planet After Geoengineering by : Design EARTH
Download or read book The Planet After Geoengineering written by Design EARTH and published by Actar. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Planet After Geoengineering is a graphic novel in five speculative fictions that imagine the worlds of climate modification technologies and their controversies. The term "geoengineering" refers to technologies that counteract the effects of anthropogenic climate change by deliberately intervening in Earth systems. In the midst of a climate crisis, and with disparate views on whether planetary-scale design is the appropriate response at all, The Planet After Geoengineering employs a speculative fiction approach to think with and against geoengineering as a form of planetary management. The graphic novel makes climate engineering and its controversies visible in a series of five stories that are collectively assembled into a planetary section from the deep underground to outer space. Each geostory--Petrified Carbon, Arctic Albedo, Sky River, Sulfur Storm, and Dust Cloud--depicts possible future Earths that we come to inhabit on the heels of a geoengineering intervention all while situating such promisory visions within a genealogy of climate-control projects from nineteenth-century rainmaking machines and volcanic eruptions to Cold War military plans. Such fabrications of an engineerable earth open a space to forge a new geo-politics that includes the actual Earth-- its dimensions, processes, and lifeforms --as constitutive of design and the planet. The Planet After Geoengineering book is the graphic novel companion to DESIGN EARTH's eponymous project at the Venice Biennale of Architecture, curated by Hashim Sarkis. With essays by Kathryn Yusoff, Benjamin Bratton and Holly Jean Buck.
