Résumé:
Cette publication donne un aperçu de la situation actuelle architecture en Wallonie et à Bruxelles. Elle comprend une sélection des projets en cours et terminés illustrant l'engagement du gouvernement et des entrepreneurs privés pour une forme d'architecture qui est en harmonie avec son temps, il montre également comment ces entités reconnaissent que des bâtiments bien conçus sont un moyen d'améliorer la qualité de vie des leurs résidents et, dans le cas de bâtiments publics, la communauté dans son ensemble. Ces projets, ainsi que leurs spécifications techniques, représentent un large spectre de types de construction, illustrant les différentes pratiques et des situations (de cabanons pour les immeubles de bureaux, et des extensions de l'intérieur d'un îlot urbain des stations de recherche polaire, etc.) Une collection d'articles nouveaux, commandé par les sociologues, philosophes, architectes, critiques et enseignants travaillant dans la Communauté française et au niveau international, pour accompagner les 112 projets illustrés. Un inventaire des activités culturelles menées dans le domaine de l'architecture et les disciplines connexes (publications, thèses, expositions, activités audiovisuelles, conférences, etc.) Cette publication, le numéro '0 ', est conçu comme un prélude à une série continue de futures publications, dont la Communauté de langue française vise à faire ressortir périodiquement afin de démontrer les faits saillants de la conception architecturale en Wallonie et à Bruxelles. Le livre, réalisé par le studio graphique Speculoos, a été nominé au Prix Fernand Baudin Prijs 2010.

Résumé:
In 1962 the young photographer René Burri, on the staff of the renowned photo agency MAGNUM, and known for his reportage and portraits, presented the architect, Le Corbusier, with a fold-out book, made with his own hands, containing photographs, dating back to 1953, that he had taken of the architect in various situations. The photographs it contains show Corbusier at the height of his creativity – in conversation, alone in his studio, at the construction site. They also convey the unmistakable atmosphere of his designs. This scrupulous facsimile reproduction comes with a text by René Burri and commentaries by the Corbusier connoisseur and editor Arthur Rüegg.

New modes of practice are now emerging in architecture.

Résumé:
New modes of practice are now emerging in architecture. Rural Studio, Exyzt, Muf, Assemble and many more have led the way by challenging conventional ideas of ‘The Architect' and reclaiming the notion of architecture as something public that should work ultimately towards the collective good. This quiet revolution is born out of a crisis in the profession and a wider vacuum in the political, environmental and economic situation. On the one hand, architecture as a profession has seen its influence diminish rapidly over the last 50 years through privatisation and the dominance of finance, while on the other hand it has also lacked collective courage and readiness to evolve. Without necessarily being aware of each other, studios around the world are now redefining the profession of architecture as something more proactive, self-aware and political.

Résumé:
Stefano Boeri is one of the few practices of international renown that has managed to overcome the difficulties intrinsic to the situation Italy presents for architecture studios and to make of these a virtue. His career as an architect has gone hand in hand with a commitment to teaching, criticism, publishing, politics and cultural agitation, and the projects he has tackled in these fields are numerous. To this we might add an abundant oeuvre unusually productive in terms of Italian parameters including public and private buildings, extending from apartment blocks and offices, a shopping mall and a small art centre in Milan, to more paradigmatic works like the remodelling of La Maddalena Arsenal (Sardinia), the apartment towers of the Vertical Forest in Milan and the Centre Régional de la Méditerranée in Marseille.

Résumé:
Silvia Bächli was invited to design the official contribution for the Swiss Pavilion at this year’s Biennale in Venice. This book offers a look inside her studio and documents the preparation of her works for the Biennale, illustrating her working process with spatial situations and snapshots that show her trying out various constellations as well as focusing on individual works and groups. The works and pictures from the artist’s studio are combined with photographs of her working stay in Iceland. Bächli has developed her body of drawings over the course of three decades, using varying formats and techniques. Drawing, for her, is a movement of seeing, of gentle deviations and displacements within the gravitational field of an aimless attentiveness to things and dreamlike phenomena that doesn’t really come to rest even in the finished drawing. The result is not just painterly moments; the drawings often seem to capture, as if in film stills, a cinematic look way of looking at bodies and things or their details, at landscapes, gestures, structures, and processes.

Résumé:
Judy Chicago provides an autobiographical look at higher education in art. How should women—and men—be prepared for a career in today’s art world? For more than a decade, Judy Chicago has been formulating a critique of studio art education, in colleges or art schools, based upon observation, study, and, most importantly, her own teaching expériences. Founder of the first program dedicated to feminist art, at California State University, Fresno, in 1970, she went on to initiate the Feminist Art Program at California Institute of the Arts with artist Miriam Schapiro, the first program at a major art school to specifically address the needs of female art students. Creator of the celebrated The Dinner Party, a monumental art installation now on permanent display at the Brooklyn Museum, Chicago reviews her own art education, in the 1960s, when she overcame sexist obstacles to beginning a career as an artist and became recognized as one of the key figures in the dynamic California art scene of that decade. She reviews the present-day situation of young people aspiring to become artists and uncovers the persistence of a bias against women and other minorities in studio art education.
