Summary:
Foresight is the eleventh in an annual series of publications that features the best young practicing architects as selected by the Architectural League of New York in their annual Young Architects competition. This year's theme, "Foresight," refers to an ability to survey, research, and engage the present toward particular, desired outcomes in the future. Our lives are inundated by forecasts about the world climate, the economy, sociopolitical trends, the housing market's rise and fall, and all kinds of bubbles bursting. Everyone has become an expert in predicting the future, just as the very idea of a better future has, for the first time in recent memory, come into question. The competition winners—Bureau E.A.S.T., Ether Ship, ex.studio, Fake Industries, Frida Escobedo Lopez, and Phu Hoang Office—present forward-thinking projects that imagine an effective role for architecture in the future.

Summary:
Comment, au milieu du XIXe siècle, Paris a-t-elle pu devenir l’incarnation urbaine de la modernité ? Pour répondre à cette question, David Harvey a exploré les mutations connues par la ville à cette époque : transformation physique, avec les grands projets d’Haussmann, qui remplace le plan médiéval par les grands boulevards ; transformation économique, avec une nouvelle forme de capitalisme dominée par les puissances financières et industrielles ; transformation culturelle, avec l’irruption de ce qu’on appellera plus tard le modernisme ; transformation sociale, avec l’émergence de violents antagonismes de classes qui atteignent leur paroxysme dans les révolutions de 1848 et de 1871. En présentant la ville moderne comme le produit instable de forces hétérogènes et contradictoires, David Harvey nous offre une image vivante du fonctionnement de Paris ainsi qu’une vision panoramique de la période décisive que fut le Second Empire. Mais cette analyse de la ville moderne est aussi l’occasion d’une réflexion magistrale sur la ville contemporaine – sur la part de la population dans l’urbanisation, sur son accès aux ressources, en somme sur le «droit à la ville».

Summary:
Modernism ushered in some of the most exciting innovations in art and literature, from Fauvism, Cubism, and Dada, to the novels of James Joyce and Franz Kafka, to such provocative works as Marcel Duchamp's "Fountain." But Modernism also left many people puzzled in its wake. How can a routine bathroom fixture be considered a work of art? Shouldn't a novel have a beginning, a middle, and an end--or at least a story? In this publication, Christopher Butler provides a coherent account of Modernism across various aesthetic and cultural fields. Butler examines how and why Modernism began, explaining what it is and showing how virtually all aspects of 20th and 21st century life have been influenced by its aesthetic legacy. Butler considers several aspects of modernism, including some classic modernist works, movements and notions of the avant garde, and the idea of "progress" in art. Finally, Butler sheds light on modernist ideas of the self, subjectivity, irrationalism, people and machines, and the political dimensions of modernism as a whole.
