Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. El Tyrannus melancholicus, bichofué o sirirí es un pequeño pájaro conocido por su carácter incisivo, que picotea a sus víctimas con la insistencia desesperante de un dedo punzando el hombro. Como un padre en la mente de un hijo. Podríamos decir que esta es una novela sobre el padre, con el peligro de reducir todo su universo a una temática que en realidad es apenas el punto de partida. Incluso la enumeración de los asuntos que refiere (la imposibilidad del amor, la tauromaquia como metáfora de la vida, el poder y la herida de la familia y la tradición, el deseo como desesperada reivindicación de la existencia, el arte como sucedáneo de la comunicación imposible) no alcanzaría para dar cuenta de ella porque no se trata de una novela fundada en la trama (que la tiene y muy intensa) sino de una obra de atmósfera, cuya fuerza y particularidad radica en la sutileza espiritual que orbita alrededor, antes, sobre y debajo de las cosas que pasan. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardcover. Condition: New. For Colombian architect Simon Velez (born 1949), botany has been inextricable from architecture. His work has been significantly determined by his country's tropical resources, in particular its lush vegetation and abundance of guadua bamboo--a common species throughout the valleys of Colombia. Working in close collaboration with the engineer-constructor Marcello Villegas, Velez has devised bamboo buildings that are extraordinary not only in appearance but also in their structural simplicity, and in their suitability for scenarios in which construction tools and resources are minimal. Velez has so successfully popularized guadua bamboo that today even his wealthiest clients are commissioning luxury residences in this material formerly associated with peasant dwellings. He has also successfully persuaded numerous public administrations, town councils and businesses concerned about the environmental impact of their activities to adopt and promote guadua bamboo; he has designed bamboo buildings in Germany, France, the United States, Brazil, Mexico, China, Jamaica, Colombia, Panama, Ecuador and India. In this monograph, illustrated throughout by Deidi von Schaewen's photographs, author Pierre Frey guides us through a range of works by Velez, examining his construction methods--in bamboo, steel and wood--as exemplifying a new kind of vernacular architecture.

Broschur Die Vorteile von Bambus, einem der weltweit wichtigsten Baustoffe, werden heute neu entdeckt: er gilt als überaus kostengünstig und nachhaltig, besitzt eine unverwechselbare Ästhetik und weist im inneren Aufbau erstaunliche Parallelen zu High-Tech-Werkstoffen auf. Der Architekt Simón Vélez, geboren 1959 in Kolumbien, hat die Vorteile dieses Werkstoffs erkannt und in eine Vielzahl von Gebäuden umgesetzt. Sein jüngstes Werk, der Pavillon der ZERI-Foundation auf der Expo 2000 in Hannover - mit einem Durchmesser von 40 Metern und einer Höhe von 17 Metern eine der größten Bambusstrukturen der Welt - wird ausführlich vorgestellt. Auch Architekten wie Buckminster Fuller, Frei Otto, Renzo Piano, Shoei Yoh oder Arata Isozaki experimentierten mit Bambus. Charlotte * Perriand schuf daraus faszinierende Möbel und der Japaner Hiroshi Teshigahara stellt mit seinen beeindruckenden Bühnenbildern die ästhetische Vielseitigkeit von Bambus zur Schau. Diese Tendenzen und viele weitere Beispiele raffinierter Bambusarchitektur machen "Grow your own House" zum ersten Werk, das die architektonische Bedeutung von Bambus auf einem gestalterisch hohen Niveau würdigt. Es zeigt, daß Bambus ein Werkstoff mit großer Zukunft ist, denn er verbindet, was bislang oft als unvereinbar galt: High Tech und Nachhaltigkeit, globales Denken und regionale Traditionen. "Grow your own House" entstand in enger Zusammenarbeit mit der "Zero Emissions Research Initiative", ZERI Foundation, Genf, und der C.I.R.E.C.A. (Centre International de Recherche et dEducation Culturelle et Agricole), Lessac. Mit Beiträgen von Jean Dethier, Walter Liese, Eda Schaur, Frei Otto, Mateo Kries. --- Simón Vélez (* 2. Februar 1949 in Manizales) ist ein kolumbianischer Architekt. Von 1968 bis 1975 absolvierte er an der Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá ein Architektur- und Kunststudium. Seit Mitte der 1980er verwendet er Bambus als Baustoff. Er war eingeladen vom Vitra Design Museum und Centre Georges Pompidou. Zur EXPO 2000 entwarf Vélez den ZERI Pavillon (zero emission research initiative) mit 40 Metern Durchmesser und 17 Metern Höhe. Er wird als Papst der Bambusarchitektur bezeichnet. Mit dem Nomadic Museum (Januar April 2008 in Mexiko-Stadt) entwarf er die größte Bambus-Struktur.(Quelle Wikipedia) Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 2000.

Condition: Usado. 2ª. Pág./pages:297 400 gramos/grams Idioma/Language:Castellano Dos cuerpos sin vida, un hombre y una mujer, son hallados en un apartamento de El Poblado, en Medellín. Lo que en un inicio parece ser un asesinato común, esconde una intriga siniestra. El detective Ricardo Saba se hace cargo del caso y pronto descubre que los familiares tienen un sospechoso: Juan Camilo Mejía, el Milicio, miembro de la familia más poderosa de la ciudad y amigo de infancia de una de las víctimas. Que el Milicio sea el principal implicado pondrá al descubierto una trama de hechos inesperados. Para matar a un amigo nos revela de manera intensa y perturbadora cómo unos jóvenes de la élite se apropian de las costumbres más sangrientas del narcotráfico. Con el ritmo de las mejores novelas de suspenso, esta historia evidencia el desgaste moral que corroe a toda una sociedad y cómo en una ciudad de más de cuatro mil homicidios al año la voz de un detective se convierte en la única conciencia que recorre los entresijos de las capas más sórdidas de esta Colombia de ficción. 17 x 22 x 2.
