Résumé:
Le livre explore les relations entre l'architecture et les engins plus légers ou plus lourds que l'air : ballons, dirigeables, avions... Des historiens, des architectes, des photographes rendent compte de l'apport de la photographie aérienne; notent l'influence de l'esthétique des avions sur l'architecture; examinent l'évolution des premiers hangars vers les aérodromes d'aujourd'hui; analysent les répercussions de la vision élevée depuis la Tour Eiffel et les premiers aéroplanes sur l'art moderne et sur des artistes comme Blaise Cendrars, Guillaume Apollinaire, Hans Arp, Kasimir Malevitch... Enfin le livre expose quelques travaux du plus aérien des artistes contemporains, l'anversois Panamarenko (nom d'artiste composé à partir de l'abréviation de "Pan American Airlines and company"). En 1967, celui-ci construit son premier avion qui inaugure une longue série d'objets volants conservés aujourd'hui dans les plus grands musées d'art contemporain.

Résumé:
Using solid square-bar steel, German sculptor Robert Schad creates drawings of movement in space. Rather than bend or shape the material, Schad welds together straight limb-like sections of varying lengths and strengths, imparting a paradoxical weightlessness to the works. Recalling human gestures such as sweeps and arches, these remarkable sculptures seem perpetually on(...)

Rather than bend or shape the material, Schad welds together straight limb-like sections of varying lengths and strengths, imparting a paradoxical weightlessness to the works.

Résumé:
This is the first attempt to understand how sculpture and architecture have come to be fused in such an intriguing alliance. Mies van der Rohe's pioneering Barcelona Pavilion (1929) is taken as the point of departure and a leitmotif for the book, which concludes with Dan Graham's hybrid pavilion sculptures of the 1980s and 90s. It identifies the special status which pre-war architects assigned to sculpture, and examines spaces for display and the independent sculptures which they housed: Eliel Saarinen's Cranbrook Campus, Edoardo Persico's Pavilion at the Milan Triennale, and Mies van der Rohe's celebrated paper project for a Museum for a Small City. Three further case studies show how architecture came to predominate over the sculpture which it housed: Philip Johnson's sculpture court for MoMA, Carlo Scarpa's extension to the Canova Gipsoteca; and the pavilions for Sonsbeek by Gerrit Rietveld and Aldo van Eyck.
