PROJECT RUSSIA 41 Alexander...
Dostępność: na zamówienie Monographs on the subject of architects who are still in good health are commonly regarded as the equivalent of monuments to people who are still alive - they supposedly put their subjects on a divine pedestal and stamp their buildings and designs with the mark of 'eternity'. Brodsky's Oblako ('Cloud') Bar and Ice Pavilion no longer exist, and yet you'll find them in the journal you're now holding, and this gives them a kind of 'immortal' glory. However, periodicals such as our own cannot afford to sacrifice immediate relevance to current issues to a memorializing impulse. In the present case this immediate relevance is not simply a matter of the fact that Brodsky has been chosen to represent Russia with a one-man show at this year's Venice Bien-nale.
LOFTS OF PARIS
Dostępność:na zamowienie Loft o f Paris is the fourth in a series of seven books that Tectum is publishing on the lofts of seven European cities. After Antwerp, Amsterdam and London and while waiting for Berlin, Barcelona and Stockholm, Tectum has opened the doors of some fifty marvellous loftsin Paris and its outskirts. These lofts were selected to present the challenges of organising and decorating an abandoned industrial site or workshop. Many workshops, garages, warehouses, small factories, printing works and large sheds around Paris have been given a new lease of life.
