Cartoné (tapa dura cartón). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Antología recopilatoria de los cuadernos de trabajo, dibujo y ensoñaciones del arquitecto Lucien Steil. Just like in the Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge, Lucien SteilÆs miniature Capricci are not mimetic sketches of a singular object but sublime agglomerations of detached images and metaphysical recollections of his memories of place, space, and time. His are not paintings but painted-drawings. His imaginary universe is represented through a collection of ideal archetypes; archetypes which make us feel at ease with their unique degree of inventiveness and yet with their strange sense of familiarity. A fragmented collection of landscapes, plazas, streets, civic and domestic buildings, towers, roofs, porches, arcades, balconies, rooms, windows, etc. constitute the repertoire of his location-neutral places; his fictional images portray spaces that do not exist today; nevertheless, at a simple glance, his places could very well occupy an existing reality in some sort of parallel universe; these are places weÆve never visited and yet spaces which, with their materiality and familiar characteristics, stir our.

Condition: Wie Neu. Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear. Tradition, Modernism & Serendipity. With a Foreword by Léon Krier, an Introduction by Alireza Sagharchi and an Epilogue by Maurice Culot. Léon Krier: "Steil brilliantly combines project and critique, convincingly demonstrating that criticism without vision is but an impotent surrender to the corruption it denounces." - This book seeks to intervene in the polemics between tradition and modernity, and between modernism and classicism, mediating between entrenched positions with a theoretical sketch, or perhaps a meditative fragment, that evokes a contemporary architecture not afraid to acknowledge both tradition and modernity, that embraces newness and originality but also recognizes the role of imitation and convention. Lucien Steil believes that traditional cities and architecture have always represented the ideals of harmony and beauty in a destabilized and disrupted world. For him, traditional cities and architecture have remained desirable models of cultural identity, homeliness, urbanity and civilization, and he maintains that the traditional city remains a good and desirable place to live, and that tradition offers a home to modernity and originality. It has proven to be perfectly compatible with modern life, despite an array of pressing challenges that must be considered as opportunities rather than limitations. For Steil, "this is both a tangible reality, time-tested and perfected, and a realistic, buildable, operational and necessary project for contemporary civilization". Rather than becoming obsolete, the traditional city has gained a new actuality as a remedy to the inconvenient truths of global warming and climate change. Traditional architecture and urbanism have the inherent sustainability to confront the greatest challenges of the 21st century, demonstrating not only great resilience but also the highest standards of modernity and originality in their acceptance of perpetual becoming. Steil maintains that contemporary traditional architects and urbanists provide a counterbalance to an opportunistic architectural and planning establishment that clings nostalgically to past paradigms of Modernism, and has abandoned its social and cultural mission to build a better and more harmonious world. For him, they are poets, idealists, craftsmen and artists who invent, design and build places and buildings of lasting quality with a view to the "Firmitas", "Utilitas" and "Venustas" championed by Vitruvius, allowing people of our time to live in comfort, security, harmony, enlightenment and pleasure. 278 Seiten mit 220 Farbabb., Großformat 24 x 30 cm, gebunden (Wasmuth Verlag 2018).

Condition: NUOVO. Milano, Silvana Editoriale cm.22x28, pp.304 illustrato a colori. brossura con copertina figurata a colori. Testo in francese. Arduino Cantàfora, artiste et architecte, tisse mémoire, rêve et réalité, racontant la ville comme un palimpseste d'histoires et de symboles. Cette monographie célèbre cinquante ans de recherche artistique, des premières uvres comme La Città analoga, peinture monumentale réalisée pour la XVe Triennale di Milano, jusqu'aux travaux les plus récents, explorant la relation entre architecture, peinture et temps. Ses peintures ne se limitent pas à la représentation : elles sont des scènes où le visible s'efface dans l'invisible, où la présence dialogue avec l'absence et où le temps se suspend. La peinture devient ainsi un dispositif d'observation lente, invitant à une réflexion sur le sens de la ville et de la mémoire. Avec son style distinctif, il nous rappelle que la beauté réside dans les imperfections, dans les détails insaisissables et dans les histoires cachées entre les ombres. À travers un parcours visuel composé d'images et de textes inédits, cet ouvrage dévoile l'univers de Cantàfora et constitue une invitation à découvrir et redécouvrir l'uvre d'un artiste qui a su transformer la peinture en un pont entre mémoire et rêve, entre architecture et poésie.
