architecture and energy bilingual edition

The energy requirements of buildings are enormous, resulting in a significant proportion of global CO2 emissions – both in the construction phase and during the building’s use and eventual demolition. In an era of energy transition and extreme weather phenomena, the question “How do we build in a time of climate change?” becomes all the more urgent. This volume presents international best-practice projects characterized by sustainable design and provide forward-looking answers. A sustainably built wood and concrete supermarket that includes a roof farm; a kindergarten constructed from locally sourced recycled materials; the renovation of an office building so that it can dispense with its air conditioning and ventilation systems: in addition to the choice of materials and innovative operating concepts, the possibilities for reducing emissions and energy requirements lie above all in thinking about the entire life cycle of a building, including refurbishing rather than new construction when possible. This volume brings together real-world examples and offers starting points for how to approach construction today and in the future.

The first publication of artist and architect Frederick Kiesler’s epoch-spanning history of human architecture, largely unknown but still relevant.Magic Architecture was the architect Frederick Kiesler’s most ambitious book project, an epoch-spanning history of human housing from prehistory to the atomic era—and yet it was never published, as Kiesler moved on to other exhibitions and projects. Kiesler’s comparative exploration of the quasi-“magical” effects of atomic technology and contemporary telekinetic military systems and the alternative epistemology of “magic” practices associated with cave drawings and protohistoric subterranean settlements reflects his profoundly interdisciplinary perspective on the evolution of art, architecture, and design.This edition preserves Kiesler’s conception of the book as a neo-Vitruvian Renaissance treatise divided into ten parts or books that narrate an alternative history and theory of architecture. Also included are sixty composite illustrations, cut and pasted from books and popular science journals, with elaborate captions. The editors have reassembled the book’s text and illustrations from archival material, supplementing them with notes that document the evolution of the work. Introductory essays provide a chronology of Kiesler’s research and an interpretation of key themes. Appendixes offer additional textual and visual material gathered by Kiesler for the project.

Christo and Jeanne-Claude: the man with the glasses and the woman with the red hair. Each one was born on the same day in 1935, and this unusual artist couple worked together until Jeanne-Claude’s death in 2009, changing the art world in the process. In large-scale actions they enveloped buildings and entire landscapes in various materials, revealing at the same time their essence and beauty. In order to finance these enormous works of art by themselves, Christo and Jeanne-Claude began making editions early on in their career—prints, collages, and objects. This completely revised, expanded, and updated catalogue of works, Prints and Objects, is testimony to the artist’s impressive scope and to their courage. Who else would have had the idea of building a 120-meter-tall truncated pyramid out of 410,000 oil barrels in the desert of the United Arab Emirates? Languages: German and English

The work of Modernist architect Carlo Scarpa (1906-1978) is exemplary of an in-between practice, which is neither architecture nor conservation, but rather, architecture in conversion, dependent upon time, weather, and tempo. This book discusses the notion of architecture in conversion, revealing it to be radically different from current conservation practices, and to entail more than a change of use. Scarpa’s work represents ‘a radical turn in how we see or understand something’. The significance of time, weather and tempo within Scarpa’s work, as well as the influences of artists such as Man Ray and Emilio Vedova and composer Luigi Nono, are revealed through a close analysis of Scarpa’s drawings and details from key buildings and their histories of multiple authorship. The book examines drawing as central to Scarpa’s practice: in lieu of creating physical models, his muti-directional drawings foreshadow the orbital movements of digital modeling techniques. Based on discussions with many of his collaborators, the book highlights Scarpa’s collaborative approach, as well as the importance of all senses in his architecture. The book concludes by introducing the notion of ‘unfinished architecture’, and by discussing various contemporary architects’ projects which follow Scarpa’s approach to conversion of buildings.

Leverage leadership knowledge to make better software architecture decisions. Think deeply but implement slowly. The overarching goal of software systems (hence, for software architecture) is to build systems that meet quality standards and that provide the highest return on investment (ROI) in the long run or within a defined period of time. A great product requires a combination of technology, leadership, and product management (including UX). Leadership is primarily about managing uncertainty and making the right judgment. To build great products, technical leaders need to combine technology, leadership, and product management knowledge, and make the right decisions. Many technical mistakes come from the gap between knowledge about these three items and judgment. In Software Architecture and Decision-Making, Srinath Perera explains principles and concepts that software architects must understand deeply and how to employ those principles to manage uncertainty. The questions and principles discussed in this book help manage uncertainty while building software architecture and provide a framework for making decisions. This book is for all technical leaders in the software industry who make holistic judgments about the systems they build and for future leaders learning the craft.

Railway buildings have always had a fascinating character all of their own, despite many no longer being in operational railway service. This book tells the story of how these buildings evolved alongside the development of the railway in Great Britain and examines how architects over the years have responded to the operational, social and cultural influences that define their work. Written for those with a keen interest in architecture and the railway, as well as those new to the subject, The Architecture and Legacy of British Railway Buildings provides an unique insight into the production of railway architecture, both in the context of railway management and the significant periods of ownership, and the swings in national mood for railway-based transportation. As well as tracing its history, the authors take time to consider the legacy these buildings have left behind and the impact of heritage on a continually forward-looking industry. Topics covered include: the context of railway architecture today; the history of how it came into existence; the evolution of different railway building types; the unique aspects of railway building design, and finally, the key railway development periods and their architectural influences.

A beautifully illustrated exploration of Arts and Crafts buildings across the United States, showcasing the movement’s wide reach and regional variations  After the Arts and Crafts movement coalesced in Britain at the end of the nineteenth century, it made its way quickly to the United States. Architects and artisans embraced its values, advocating for handicraft in building design while promoting a respect for nature, simplicity, native materials, and regional culture.

Moving beyond reductive notions of identity, myths of authenticity, fetishized traditionalism, or the constructed opposition of tradition and modernity, The Arab City: Architectural and Representation critically engages contemporary architectural and urban production in the Middle East. Taking the "Arab City" and "Islamic Architecture" as sites of investigation rather than given categories, this book reframes the region's buildings, cities, and landscapes and broadens its architectural and urban canons. Arab cities are multifaceted places and sites of layered historical imaginaries; defined by regional and territorial economies, they bridge scales of production and political engagement. The essays collected here investigate cultural representation, the evolution of historical cities, contemporary architectural practices, emerging urban conditions, and responsive urban imaginaries in the Arab World.

A place for representation, self-presentation and communication, resistance and protest - this lavishly illustrated volume investigates the multi-layered significance of the street in the art of the twentieth and twenty-first century as an interface for diverse walks of life and groups through international positions in painting, graphics, photography, film, performance and installation.Around 1900, the street moved into the focus of artists in the wake of industrialisation and urbanisation as an elemental component of life. Starting with the Futurists and the Expressionists, who made the street a symbol for modern life full of promises and conflicts, the subject runs like a thread through art: as a social psychogram; as the expression of collective and individual longings and fears; within the context of happenings or graffiti; and currently also redefined within the framework of ecology, sustainability and democratic movements.

Nina Malterud is one of Norway’s most prominent ceramics artists. Over the course of her five-decade-long career, she has developed a unique artistic oeuvre with references to traditional ceramic objects like plates, bowls, and tiles, but the emphasis is more on expression than on function. She explores the possibilities of clay and glazes in a free and undogmatic way, and is open to the visual results that can arise through controlled coincidences. The traces of the process are an essential part of her visual language. Sometimes the motifs are recognizable, but for the most part, she works with abstraction. The pieces radiate both tenderness and fragility, strength, and power. Combined with the materiality and weight of ceramics, the results are artworks with a strong sensory appeal.

The Expressionist and “Brücke” artist Max Pechstein was a pioneering representative of modernism in Germany. His intensely colourful depictions of people and nature are regarded as foundational to Expressionism and were a defining inspiration for an entire epoch. This publication magnificently illustrates the diversity and depth of his oeuvre. Many of his paintings are regarded as icons of Expressionism, yet the stylistic breadth of Max Pechstein’s art extends well beyond his works from the “Brücke” period. He found inspiration in his visits to what he called “painter’s paradises” on the Baltic Sea and the South Pacific, where his focus on the unity of man and nature was crystallized. Pechstein’s art and his yearning for harmony in an unstable world reflect our current and increasingly appreciative view of nature and the environment, and thus serve as a bridge to the present time.

The most distinctive feature of Meyerowitz’s photography is its intimacy, understood as the capacity to be as close as possible to the scene in order to seize the intimate quality of the moment and meet and recognise the unexpected. Exemplary in this regard are the photos taken in the United States during the Vietnam War, which offer an original view of American society in those years.

In Frankenthaler’s works, paint and canvas become one. The soak-stain technique she developed allows the paint to seep directly into unprimed fabric. The result is a pictorial effect like no other: colour spaces open up, flowing into one another, sometimes saturated, sometimes transparent. Above all, the pictures show an artist willing to take risks: by setting no limits to her artistic work, Frankenthaler was able to create liberated, large-scale paintings full of radiance. Her groundbreaking body of work remains highly relevant today.

This publication provides a comprehensive overview of Ulrich Vogl’s current artistic practice. The starting point of his work is his fascination with everyday objects and places, their stories and moods. In his works, Vogl either integrates them unchanged, reshapes them, or leaves them only as references. Some of Vogl’s pieces are movable, some work with shadows, sound and projections, often they are cinematic or time-based, low-tech, revealing their mode of production. They are always part of a playful, experimental, and conceptual process, at the end of which is a work reduced to its essentials. The book presents a large amount of what Vogl calls “cognitive catalysts.”

From egg tempera to chalk and oil paint, Janaina Tschäpe has mastered a style of painting that combines Nordic depth with supple, airborne line dancing. The author Doris von Drathen, an art historian specializing in Aby Warburg’s iconology, immediately recognized the Hamburg school in the German-Brazilian-American artist. Thus began a friendship and an inexhaustible dialogue about art. In the Wind’s Brushstrokes is a deeply personal monograph in two parts. Beginning with a studio talk, Janaina Tschäpe speaks about her art in detail to the author Doris von Drathen: her fears of the unpainted, the audacity of oil paint, and the tremendous test of courage in trusting one’s own hand at work. In the essay section that follows, von Drathen comments on Tschäpe’s painting, picture by picture, dispensing with theoretical categories in favour of detailed painterly observations that thoroughly examine the artist’s concept of nature.

Colourful worlds with a critical messageDistressingly sweet worlds, whimsical narratives, and tipping moments: in the works of artist Rachel Maclean, we encounter cute babies and faceless mothers or deepfake Hollywood stars in an action-packed battle for “reality.” In her immersive installations, the artist takes us to alternative universes in which sweetness turns to horror and visual perception is shaken. This catalogue is published on the occasion of the exhibitions if it looks like a duck … at Kunstpalais Erlangen (2023) and Mama Mimi Duck at Kunsthalle Giessen (2024) and brings them to life in a stunning way. It is also the first monograph presenting Rachel Maclean's works since the early 2020s, thus providing fresh insights into her sophisticated artistic game with our perception of reality.

A monumental 41-piece installation examining an ancient myth through contemporary means For the 60th Venice Biennale, the Lebanese Pavilion hosts Mounira Al Solh (born 1978), whose multimedia allegorical installations bridge myth and reality. A Dance with Her Myth revisits the legend of ZeusÂ’ abduction of the Phoenician princess Europa. Zeus took the form of a white bull in order to carry Europa away. In Al SolhÂ’s reappraisal, the myth sheds light on the issues and challenges currently facing women, using contemporary artistic and visual means. Ceramics, collages, textiles, drawings and wooden boats echo the imagery of ancient mythology, while also connecting Phoenician lore with contemporary Lebanese culture. The catalog includes extensive illustrations of the 41-piece installation, contextualized by the pavilionÂ’s curator, Nada Ghandour.

A journey to the art capital of the 1930s: Paris. The avant-garde group abstraction-création and its fifty or so members were an inspiration to the art world with their clear lines and kaleidoscopic experiments with form. Leading figures of abstraction joined together to support artistic freedom and oppose the rise of fascism, before modernism shifted its gravitational centre to New York. Sophie Taeuber-Arp’s distinctly concrete forms and Hans Arp’s organic abstractions, Theo van Doesburg’s compositions of line grids and Jean Gorin’s social utopias transformed into abstract forms – the entire cosmos of non-representational art found a home in the cosmopolitan group abstraction création. This visually superlative volume combines highlights of abstract art with carefully integrated contemporary perspectives, offering an introduction to the group, impressions of Paris in the 1930s and a visual treasure trove. Contemporary Artists: Rana Begum, Angela Bulloch, Daniel Buren, Imi Knoebel, Timo Nasseri, Kai Schiemenz, Beat Zoderer. Artists: Hans (Jean) Arp, Willi Baumeister, Alexander Calder, Robert Delaunay, Theo Van Doesburg, Otto Freundlich, Naum Gabo, Albert Gleizes, Jean Gorin, Jean Hélion, Barbara Hepworth, Auguste Herbin, Mainie Jellett, Laszlo Moholynagy, Piet Mondrian, Marlow Moss, Wladyslaw Strzeminski, Sophie Taeuber-Arp, Georges Vantongerloo, Friedrich Vordemberge-Gildewart, Et Al.

A chunky, giftable compendium of beautiful vases by emerging designers from around the worldA vase is never merely a container. As Georges Braque once said, the vase gives form to emptiness: ever since the earliest human civilizations, this object has had a purpose that is greater than its function and it perennially invites experimentation in shape and expression.The 1,000 vases presented in this book offer an eloquent demonstration of this fact. They come from 35 different countries and more than 80% of them have been made by women or independent designers and artists born between 1988 and 1993--each of whom was invited to create a free interpretation of the same archetype, resulting in a spectrum of the infinite creativity inspired by the many possible versions of a single item. Made from an enormous range of materials (ceramic, terracotta, porcelain, metal, wood and glass, as well as natural fibers, industrial waste and recycled plastic), using techniques both ancient and ultramodern (3D printing) and belonging to different categories (from amphora to jar, jug to carafe), almost all sit on the borderline that simultaneously unites and separates art, design and craftsmanship.Designers include: Yuta Segawa, Zhu Ohmu, Yonobi Studio, Angelika Kogevina, Anbar El Mokri, ...

A story about the design and life of hospitals—how they are born and evolve, the forces that shape them and the shifts that conspire to incapacitate them Reading architecture through the history of hospitals offers a tool for unlocking the elemental principles of architecture and the intractable laws of human and social conditions that architecture serves in each of our lives. This book encounters brilliant and visionary designers who were hospital architects but also systems designers, driven by the aim of social change. They faced the contradictions of health care in their time and found innovative ways to solve for specific medical dilemmas. Designers and professionals such as Filarete, Lluís Domènech i Montaner, Albert Schweitzer, Gordon Friesen, E. Todd Wheeler and Eberhard Zeidler are studied here, while the medical spaces of more widely known architects such as Isambard Brunel, Aalvar Aalto, Le Corbusier, Louis Kahn and Paul Rudolph also help inform this history. All these characters were polymaths and provocateurs, but none quite summarizes this history more succinctly than Florence Nightingale, who, in laying out her guidelines for ward design in 1859, shows how the design of a medical facility can influence an entire political and social order.The Architecture of ...

An overview of Baumgarte’s life’s work, in which she explored the social controversies of postwar West Germany in exuberant watercolors. During a period of radical political change, German painter Ruth Baumgarte (1923–2013) created an artistic oeuvre in which humankind and its fragile existence are at the center. This volume introduces her as a passionate drawer, a versatile applied graphic artist and an expressive painter. Baumgarte was an art student during World War II, and the turbulent events of her lifetime left visible traces in her work. Beginning in the early 1950s she turned her attention to subjects from the world of theater and industry. Later in her career she made a study of environmental subjects, including the nuclear disaster at Chernobyl, as well as questions of social and political justice. She traveled to Africa more than forty times and frequently painted people and scenes she encountered there. Her robust colors and bold brushstrokes, which redefined watercolor painting, are reproduced in Ruth Baumgarte: Become Who You Are! The Art of Living with more than 250 color illustrations.
