Lars Müller Publishers Autumn 2012 Architecture Design Photography Art Society The book lives—and is stronger than ever! Talk of the crisis of books and their replacement by digital media is the order of the day—we are all the more convinced of the inherent qualities of this medium. With our meticulously produced publications in the areas of architecture, design, photography, art, and society, we invite you to linger and immerse yourselves. Instead of superficial efficiency and the rapid transfer of knowledge we aim to provide space for what is permanent. Space, for instance, for the time needed for architectural design to mature through a series of sketches—the new titles with the drawings of Pritzker Prize winners Wang Shu and Eduardo Souto de Moura provide evidence of this. In the Encyclopedia of Flowers the reader grows ever more absorbed while contemplating the cascades of flowers by Japanese florist and artist Makoto Azuma. With photographs by Iwan Baan, Torre David documents a “vertical favela” in an unfinished skyscraper in the center of Caracas. La Malcontenta: 1924–1939 transports us to the first half of the twentieth century and the bohemian community of the time, which frequently met at Palladio’s Villa Malcontenta in Venice. These are just a few examples from our richly varied fall program. As an independent publisher, thematic relevance and aesthetic coherence represent both a motivation and a measuring stick.

Flowers have been a universal cultural object for millennia. They are an important aesthetic element in everyday life worldwide, and have played a highly symbolic role in art throughout the ages. Over the past few years, Makoto Azuma has created a furor in the art world with his floral installations, in which he creates unusual new shapes from plants and flowers and their component parts. Inspired by the Japanese tradition of ikebana—the art of flower arranging—Azuma creates novel and previously unseen aesthetics by bringing together unusual plants that wouldn’t usually meet in nature—some of them exotic —in extraordinary arrangements. Shunsuke Shiinoki, who opened the “haute-couture” florists Jardin des Fleurs in Tokyo in 2002 in association with Makoto Azuma, captured these exceptional floral installations in extraordinary photographs.

Torre David is an incomplete skyscraper in the center of the Venezuelan capital Caracas that has been occupied and reconstructed by local residents. Work on the building, named after the financial investor David Brillembourg, who died in 1993 , was suspended during the Venezuelan financial crisis of 1994 . After the office tower— the third highest in Venezuela—had stood empty for many years, it was taken over by the local population in 2008 . The occupants made the building their own with improvisation and skill—it is a “vertical favela,” now containing not just housing but also other everyday facilities such as an improvised doctor’s office, shops, and more. Photographer Iwan Baan has documented Torre David and its occupants, creating a portrait that captures the contradictions of the place while at the same time revealing urban structures that have emerged dynamically and without planning.

“My typical way, say, of designing a large building for the campus is that I think about it and make some small sketches, maybe for two months. Then—and this is a very typically Chinese way— one morning I get a feeling that is very clear. I pull out the paper, and I draw it from this end to that end, maybe working four hours before I finish the design. Four hours.” Wang Shu

Shu’s design process always begins with an intense study of the location. The architect spends as long as possible on the site, absorbing its atmosphere. He then produces drafts in the form of hand-drawn sketches, creating them in relatively quick succession. Imagining the House follows this process in various buildings. Photographic documentation of the locations elucidate Shu’s on-site research. The reproductions of drawings in this book demonstrate how the designs change and become more concrete over the course of the process. The book provides unique insights into the work of an architect who has hitherto received little attention in Europe, thereby addressing a considerable omission in the publishing world. WANG SHU was born in 1963 in the province of Xinjiang, China. He founded his architecture office Amateur Architecture Studio in 1997 . In 2012 , he was awarded

the Pritzker Prize. RELATED TITLES Sketchbook No. 76, page 8 Sou Fujimoto, page 10 Steven Holl – Scale, page 38

While Floating Images: Souto de Moura’s Wall Atlas explores the architect’s visual archive as the basis for his work, Sketchbook No. 76 focuses on his concrete sketches. The publication is a reproduction of his sketchbook and gives insight into the architectural design process, which here can be quite literally experienced and understood. The publication records his first ideas, ﬂeeting sketches, studies, and spontaneous jottings that offer a starting point for every project but also function as a working resource for developing existing ideas further and trying out any number of variants. Sketchbook No. 76 is a homage to the medium of drawing and makes it clear that it remains an essential element of the creative process. E DUARDO SOUTO DE MOURA , born in Porto in 1952 , is regarded as one of the most important contemporary architects. In 2011 he was awarded the Pritzker Prize for

his architectural work.

Edited by André Tavares and Pedro Bandeira Shows Eduardo Souto de Moura’s visual universe and sources of inspiration A book on the interplay between images and completed buildings Photographs, newspaper cuttings, postcards, drawings, and slides: on entering the studio of Eduardo Souto de Moura, winner of the Pritzker Prize 2011 , one is confronted with a variety of images on the walls that engage in a dialogue. How do these photos, drawings, and illustrations impact his design practice? What is the relationship between the image and the completed building? Floating Images: Eduardo Souto de Moura’s Wall Atlas uses this question as an opportunity to examine the architect’s visual universe. He has added images from his extensive collection of drawings and project sketches and reorganized them in this atlas. Complex relationships are formed between the individual illustrations and projects. Essays by Pedro Bandeira, Eduardo Souto de Moura, Diogo Seixas Lopes, and Philip Ursprung round off the publication and provide a contextualization in terms of the history of art and images.

EVERYTHING IS ARCHITECTURE

tecture firm, but the firm is itself certainly a work of architectural intelligence.10 Architecture as creative expression, along with other arts, will always be the result of complex, transdisciplinary, intuitive processes that imply in their authorial11 and poetic expression the healthy confrontation of objectivity and subjectivity, science and art, rule and exception. And while architecture essentially persists as a “ specialist in generalities, ” the mixing of images should come as no surprise — rescued from different origins and sharing the same place ( the wall ), to build something new and necessarily beautiful . . . and false. Various questions immediately arise: Do the images have an isolated value of their own or does that value derive from their association? Do they remain linked to their origin, do they keep a reference, or are they legitimately decontextualized? Do the images exist on this support due to their content or their superficial form? Are they sought with specific intent or casually found? Do they have an ephemeral meaning or do they express a desire to be forever? Are they a means, a vehicle, or an end? Do they comprise a whole, comprise an archive? Can they be appropriated? Are they worth more than a thousand words? Are they reality or representation? Do they simulate or replace the object? And above all: how do they relate to the planning and thinking of architecture? As unbelievers in a contrasted black-and-white reality ( images can be all and none of this ), we imagine that background wall as a vestige of an ambiguous mental map between determinism and chance, denouncing the same distance we’ll find in the space that wavers between the architectural plan and the work or between the built work and its later appropriation or perception. There will always be an observer who legitimizes the relativism, but under the title Eduardo Souto de Moura: Floating Images on Design Process, we aim to stratify in an illusorily objective manner the images taken as methodology for thinking out the architecture project. At a time when architecture seems to be giving way to new paradigms ( in which the discipline seems to lose its autonomy, in which regulations seem meant for mindless architects, in which only specialization seems to legitimize architectural production,

and in which low-cost competition results in a shortage of time and quality ), these Floating Images assert themselves as a vestige of a time and method that will not stop representing a certain sense of resistance and will consequently also not stop justifying the exceptional nature of an architect and a work that can only be copied naively and superficially. This architecture, as Álvaro Siza says, needs time that’s not there today. However, there is no nostalgia in this sense of loss. Eduardo Souto de Moura always knew how to stand against every expectation. He is, when least expected, unpredictable. By focusing our attention on images on a wall in order to use them to legitimize a method, we are consciously withdrawing from another field of references linked to the word. This risk ( which we hope will be lessened by the written contributions ) is evident in the precept that generally, the philosophers since Plato have always seen in the image an inferior form of representation, that is, an obstacle to thought. Traditional philosophy is dualist: image is on the side of the material, authentic thought is immaterial. To think, one has to go beyond images.12 We can go even farther by stating that thought is previous to images, previous to the word itself. Even so, maybe what most appeals to us in the risk of focusing almost solely on images is precisely the abdication from “Authentic thought ” ( which in Plato’s Republic was attributed solely to God ) in favor of thought that does not necessarily live from the ant-

Moreno ), Jornal Arquitectos, no. 239 May / June 2010, pp. 30–35. 11 It may seem untimely to insist on architecture as an authorial creation. We know it is becoming nowadays more and more a team practice, extremely conditioned by regulations and technical demands. 12 Sylvain Auroux, Yvonne Weil, Dicionário de Filosofia, Porto, ASA, 1993, p. 205 ( 3rd ed. ).

Sou Fujimoto – Sketchbook Facsimile of a sketchbook by Sou Fujimoto Insights into the design process of the Japanese architect known for his unconventional buildings Thematic links to other publications of sketchbooks (Wang Shu, Eduardo Souto de Moura, Steven Holl) The works of Sou Fujimoto resist any form of conventional categorization. This young Japanese architect stands for unconventional buildings that cannot be described by standard criteria and definitions such as inside/outside or public/private. Clear divisions such as between ﬂoor levels and rooms are shattered by his complex ground plans and interlocking structures which—in a reference to the idea of the cave—he describes as “primitive future.” With this approach he creates forms that are committed to a playful interaction between user and space. Alongside private residences, such as the well-known N House, his library for Musashino Art University has achieved particular recognition. In addition he was represented at the 2010 Venice Biennale with a design for a house.

Kenzo Tange (1913 –2005 ) is a peerless figure among twentieth-century Japanese architects, unmatched in his talent, inﬂuence, and versatility. This collection of essays represents a new generation of original research that reframes Tange in the context of Japan’s unique embrace of modern architecture as well as global discourses of cultural identity, technology, and the synthesis of the arts. Case studies on celebrated works clarify Tange’s wide-ranging interests and design methodology through collaboration with allied fields such as art, engineering, furniture design, and photography. The book will appeal to both specialists and general readers with an interest in the visual culture and built environment of modern Japan. SE NG KUAN is assistant professor of architecture at Washington University

in St. Louis. He organized the exhibition Utopia Across Scales: Highlights from the Kenzo Tange Archive (Harvard Graduate School of Design, 2009 ). YUKIO LIPPIT is professor of the history of art and architecture at Harvard University. He is author of Painting of the Realm: The Kano House of Painters in SeventeenthCentury Japan (University of Washington Press, 2012 ).

In her illuminating book on Louis Kahn, Sarah Williams Goldhagen summarized how the American architectural community, including Kahn, reacted to Whyte’s book or to the book Lonely Crowd by David Riesman6. Tange’s reaction to these propositions was the opposite; his was an almost Nietzschean affirmation of the new situation. Unlike other leftist intellectuals, both in the US and in Japan, he welcomed the megalopolis as a collective alter-ego of this Organization. Tange’s Organization Man, who belonged to the new social elite of the dawning era, was actually unlike Whyte’s, who was listless, lived in the suburbs, and lacked social aspirations. To continue the Nietzschean metaphor, Tange’s Organization Man was a ‘superman’ of the information society. “Tokyo Plan, 1960” is a city for these superman (fig. 14). For him, the megalopolis was a city transcending the modern metropolis and the mega-structure was its architectural form.

height limit and featured an office block, divided into upper and lower levels, spanning between two vertical cores. Due to the height limit, however, the proposal failed to convey the impression of a city in the air composed of bridge-like clusters (fig. 15). [Translator’s note: I assume ‘height limit,’ refers to the one in effect, not the newly proposed height limit, though this is ambiguous in the manuscript I received.]

In February of the same year, Weekly Asahi published an article on the development of the Marunouchi area, Tokyo’s most prestigious business center7. The article featured Teiji Ito, a prominent historian who criticized the strategy of the Mitsubishi-jisho (Mitsubishi Estate), Japan’s largest developer and a major landowner in the Marunouchi district. Ito criticized Mitsubishi for not trying to take on the challenge of new possibilities following height limit revisions. For the purposes of comparison, Teiji Ito introduced another “City in the Air” project by his close friend Arata Isozaki, one which had never been published before its inclusion in this article (fig.16). Ito later stated that in those days, Isozaki repeatedly said he was not interested in building anything below 31 meters. His new project for Marunouchi was designed only for provocation. Isozaki argued that this project could be built with minimum destruction of existing structures. Isozaki’s city in the air was dramatically juxtaposed to Mitsubishi’s city on the ground, expressing a striking contrast between the architect’s visions for the future and the vulgar capitalist reality of the time.

At the same time as the release of his Tokyo Plan 1960, Tange was commissioned by Hideo Yoshida, the president of Dentsu, Japan’s largest advertising agency (and later the world’s largest), to build their headquarters. Tange had already built their Osaka branch in 1960 and designed the Totsuka Country Club for Yoshida. Yoshida, known as an avatar of the spirit of the advertising business, shared the architect’s ambitions for a rising nation. As head of the advertising agency, Yoshida must have been greatly impressed by an hour-long television program on Tokyo Plan 1960 by the National Broadcasting Company. Yoshida insisted that Dentsu should build a monumental building which would symbolize the company. The final outcome, eventually completed in 1967, was, however, a rather mediocre one when considered among Tange’s buildings from the 1960s and it has failed to draw much attention. However, the initial intention was far more ambitious, in response to the client’s own ambitions.

15 Tange; First scheme for Dentsu Headquarter 1961（

This awkward outcome is related to a dispute over revision of the building codes, which had prohibited building anything above 31 meters. Revision, studied by the Architectural Institute of Japan since the mid 1950s, yielded a 1955 report by the committee, led by Takashi Asada, who had been Tange’s senior partner and would organize the Metabolist group. In 1963, the building codes were revised in a limited way, permitting building an extra 30% Floor Area Ratio, although only in exceptional cases, such as redevelopments larger than one urban block in size. Tange’s first proposal for the Dentsu Headquarters Building adhered to the

In the same issue, Tange’s second scheme for Dentsu, taller than the first, was also published, along with his own argument regarding the possibilities presented by changes to building codes, which Mitsubishi deliberately ignored to avoid the foreseeable troublesome procedures（fig.17. An initial Dentsu plan within the height limit regulation had been a temporary solution; Tange’s team, keeping aware of the situation, waited for implementation of these new regulations, still under review. After it became clear that the height limit was indeed to be changed, the Dentsu project was again revised to a height of 21 stories, fully 100 meters high (fig.18) 8. In order to realize this additional height, Tange proposed that Yoshida appeal to landowners in the neighborhood （ his proposal was accepted enthusiastically. This was a battle as well among leading Japanese corporations, related to the new possibilities presented by increased building

Parallel Narratives of the Urban Edited by Mohsen Mostafavi In cooperation with Harvard University Graduate School of Design Publication about the complex relationship between urban artifacts and urban activities With concrete examples from numerous cities around the world

Available August 2012 16 .5 × 24 cm, 6 ½ × 9 ½ in approx. 352 pages approx. 200 illustrations, hardcover ISBN 978 -3 -03778 -302 -3 , English E UR 50 .– G BP 45 .– USD / CAD 60 .–

This volume addresses the complex relations between urban artifacts and urban life. The contributions show how architects, planners, and urban designers describe and give shape to the city, while novelists, humanists, and other scholars examine its operations and performances. The essential question is: How does the physical character of an urban environment inﬂuence or enable the events that take place within a specific setting? Contributors from a wide range of fields address the role and life of cities as diverse as Baku, Buenos Aires, Cairo, Detroit, Jakarta, Johannesburg, Mumbai, Paris, Quito, St. Petersburg, Tel Aviv, Tirana, and Toronto. Portfolios of contemporary photography present the layered realities of urban life today. With contributions by Arjun Appadurai, Eve Blau, Svetlana Boym, Lindsay Bremner, Jana Cephas, Felipe Correa, Rahul Mehrotra, Mohsen Mostafavi, Antoine Picon, Gyan Prakash, Nasser Rabbat, Rafi Segal, Jorge Silvetti, AbdouMaliq Simone, and Charles Waldheim.

Whiteout City: Tel Aviv’s Culture of the New

Out of a Middle East charged with political conflicts and religious tension, Tel-Aviv emerges as an urban retreat, an attempted escape from the burdens of Israeli reality. In order to maintain a sense of normalcy, independence and participation within the international scene, Tel Aviv offers a ‘counter-place’ an alternative urban life which is at the same time both an integral part and detached from Israeli society. In contrast to the more conservative side of Israeli society which has presented the country as ideological, religious, nationalist, right-wing, segregated, restrictive, conservative, oppressive, and violent, Tel Aviv has done almost everything possible to show it is exactly the opposite. The city, through its local cultural figures, media and official municipal campaigns has continuously expressed, in words and actions, its separatism, secularism, liberalism and ‘live and let live’ state of mind. The country’s intense pre-occupation with borders, national security, restriction and control of physical movement, and policing of public space, is counter acted with a sense of expansiveness, of having no boundaries or limitations. This is a notion felt in everyday life, in the city’s urban space, the heterogeneous composite of its population, its business relations, and nightlife scene (nicknamed Sodom or Gomorrah). Tel Aviv presents a place where anything is possible and everything is allowed, with minimum constraints or restrictions, as a recent Lonely Planet guide concludes: “(Tel Aviv) the total flipside of Jerusalem, a modern Sin City on the sea rather than an ancient Holy City on a hill. Hedonism is the one religion that unites its inhabitants. There are more bars than synagogues, God is a DJ and everyone’s body is a temple. Yet, scratch underneath the surface and Tel Aviv, or TLV, reveals itself as a truly diverse 21st-century Mediterranean hub . . . it is home to a large gay

community, a kind of San Francisco in the Middle East.” 1 The sense of disconnect from the country’s amplified political tensions is perhaps the strongest notion felt by anyone visiting the city, tourist and Israelis alike. It is this urban experience that draws so many young Israelis to the city. Tel Aviv simultaneously provides a sense of relaxation and of intense, overwhelming urban activity, yet does not offer any distinguishable sites to visit. The city has no monuments, no exceptional architectural works, no important religious buildings or other tourist attractions. Tel Aviv’s practice of detachment has been part of its raison d’etre, since its conception in the early twentieth century. It is a city which elevated the idea of being ‘the first at’ within the context of the Zionist revival in Palestine, and established itself upon the myth of a white city, a city built out of sand upon the empty dunes along the Mediterranean. As such, it saw itself as a new kind of urban center which celebrated its youth, cultural independence, lack of ties to history, or traditional commitments to urban context and architectural style. With a story of new beginnings, of first events, actions, of creating history from everyday life, Tel Aviv epitomized the modern Jewish revival: it offered the first Hebrew town, school, skyscraper and allowed the first Hebrew political assignation2. The narrative of the new, the progressive, the making of something out of nothing, which is the leitmotif of Zionism’s settlement of Palestine, is perhaps the most consistent historical narrative from which to understand Tel Aviv’s inconsistent urban development. This perpetual desire for renewal has often been confused for the city’s lack of identity. I would argue here the opposite, that this in fact is a sign and expression of its identity. Tel Aviv’s desire to continuously be re-born, redefined and re-experienced is an essential part of what the city is about. The dynamics of erasure and renewal, of detachment and re-inventing and imagining the city, serves to draw in and produce the activity, energy and social media connectivity that sustain it as an urban center and validate the narrative it set to follow. The continuous pursuit of renewal also results from the gap between Tel Aviv’s urban aspirations and its geo-political condition. Once detached from Israeli reality it seeks to participate within a larger international scene. In this

Anniversaries offer the opportunity to consider the past as an active interlocutor with the present and the future. For the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, this means highlighting people, events, objects, and ideas in a rich institutional history to bring the collective memory of seventy-five years into sharper focus for design practice today and tomorrow. Attempting a comprehensive account of the institution would run the risk of homogenizing a history characterized so consistently by heterogeneity and multiplicity. Instead, this book employs an episodic approach, framing selected moments as journalistic dispatches from the past. These reports are grouped within paired themes: Design as Research/Design as Critique, City as Practice/City as Form, the Continuous Institution/The Shifting Institution. Short essays by a range of GSD faculty signal current directions in teaching and research, pointing toward a future that is at once inherited and projective.

In the manifesto The City in the City – Berlin: A Green Archipelago, Oswald Mathias Ungers and a number of his colleagues from Cornell University presented the first concepts and intellectual models for the shrinking city. In contrast to the reconstruction of the European city that was popular at the time, they developed the figure of a polycentric urban landscape. However, the manifesto really began to exert an effect beginning in the 1990 s onwards, when the focus of the urban planning discourse turned to the examination of crises, recessions, and the phenomenon of demographic shrinking. This critical edition contains a previously unpublished version of the manifesto by Rem Koolhaas, as well as interviews with co-authors Rem Koolhaas, Peter Riemann, Hans Kollhoff, and Arthur Ovaska. Introductory texts explain the development of the manifesto between Cornell and Berlin, position the work in the planning history of Berlin, and reveal its inﬂuence on current approaches.

Guido Beltramini

Palladio in Private Comprehensive biography of famous architect Andrea Palladio Andrea Palladio’s villa architecture is still admired for its elegance and harmony, but little is known about the person behind the buildings. Experienced Palladio researcher Guido Beltramini has worked meticulously on material from historical documents about Palladio’s person and life, and assembled a full picture of the architect. Palladio in Private follows his career, his rise from being the ordinary miller’s son Pietro della Gondola to become the architect Andrea Palladio. Beltramini does not just explore Palladio’s origins, his training as a stonemason, and his complex relationship with powerful clients and scholars, but also his private life: his jovial character, his life as a married man with five children, and not least his profound conviction that architecture can and must enrich life. The text is complemented by numerous illustrations. G UIDO BE LTRAMINI , born in 1961 , has been director of the Centro Internazionale di Studi di Architettura Andrea Palladio in Vicenza since 1991 .

The text is complemented by numerous photographs dating from this exciting time that convey an impression of what was happening in the villa in those days. ANTONIO FOSCARI is an architect and has been a professor of architecture at the University of Venice since 1971 . In 1973 , he restored the Villa Malcontenta, built

for his ancestors by Andrea Palladio, and has concentrated his research on buildings by the great Renaissance architect since that date. RELATED TITLE Andrea Palladio – Unbuilt Venice, page 39

And Now the Ensemble! is intended as a challenge to architects, their clients, and commissioning authorities to understand and create urban development as a dynamic and collective work of art; in short, to make dialogue central to design. Design, atmosphere, and use can make every new building relate to its local surroundings. As a design process, this contextual expansion does not simply imitate the urban pattern, but interprets what is already there, to some extent modernizes it, makes the familiar alien by employing unusual atmospheric imagery, and ultimately transforms the accumulated chaos of soloists into an orchestrated whole.

Le Corbusier’s Pavilion for Zurich uses numerous handwritten documents, drawings, and papers to trace the history of Le Corbusier’s last built work. This dwelling, which is also a museum, was initiated by Zürich gallery owner Heidi Weber. With its abstract forms and colors, it represents an intellectual legacy of the famous architect in which the further development of architecture as envisaged by Le Corbusier is clearly legible. From the first ideas and sketches from 1949 –50 to the opening in 1967 and beyond, the genesis of this exceptional building—the completion of which the architect did not live to see—is presented with lavish use of illustrations and documents. This book explains for the first time the significance of the pavilion, which differs strongly from the beton brut of Le Corbusier’s late work, in terms of its position as one of the architect’s central and forward-looking works. CATHE RINE DUMONT D’AYOT, born in France in 1965 , studied architecture at the

Inspired by the architects’ tradition of passing on experience in conversation form, this paperback book provides insights into the ideas, methods, and memories of one of Europe’s most innovative landscape architects. In twelve concise conversations, Vogt inquires into the meaning of landscape architecture in the context of the worldwide urbanization process, and tries to define this young discipline’s position. To this day, our concept of landscape appears to be inﬂuenced by an Arcadian ideal. Only when landscapes are understood on several levels, as the product of natural, cultural, and social processes, can atmospheric and living urban landscapes appropriate to the specific situation be created. Günther Vogt sees landscape architecture decidedly as part of a city, given its close relationship to topography, architecture, and infrastructure.

“... Just a while ago I stood in a landscape while it was raining and came to the conclusion that the importance of the sun is overvalued—somewhat like Joseph Beuys, who once said that Duchamp’s silence was overvalued. A landscape in the rain is far more atmospheric than in the sunlight. But we rarely allow our perception to expand in this way.” Günther Vogt

Baku: Oil and Urbanism is the first architectural study of the relationship between oil and urbanism. Its focus is Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan and formerly part of the Russian Empire and Soviet Union. Since the late 19 th century, oil and urbanism have been intertwined in the spaces of the city. Later, Baku was the site of one of the most spectacular experiments in Soviet urban and infrastructural design —“Neft Dashlari,” the first off-shore drilling facility in the world, a city built on trestles in the Caspian Sea. Today, Baku is undergoing its second major oil boom. The book examines how urban design, planning, and architecture have dealt with the issue of oil in varying political conditions. Working with maps and archival photographs, the book analyzes sites, buildings, urban fabric, plans to understand the evolution of the city. EVE BLAU is adjunct professor of the history of urban form at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. Previously director of the architecture degree programs at the GSD and curator of exhibitions and publications at the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal, she has written extensively on modern architecture, urbanism, and the post-socialist city.

With True City, a photographic essay on the “global city” of the twenty-first century, photographer and sociologist Charlie Koolhaas weaves a dense photographic patchwork of images of the historic commercial centers of London, Guangzhou, and Houston and the emerging centers of commerce Dubai and Lagos. For her research, the author has visited these cities and taken photographs which reﬂect contemporary life in a concentrated way. The images illustrate current issues such as the contradiction between cultural homogenization and local diversity at a time of globalization. True City starkly contrasts the various urban landscapes with their inhabitants to reveal the differences and similarities between the cities, their cultures, the architecture, and the people living in them. The book is part street photography, part raw documentary and intense observation. Literary text collages by the author supplement the visual explorations and form an associative network with them. CHARLIE KOOLHAAS , born in London in 1977 , is a Dutch sociologist and artist. She graduated from New York University in 1999 . Her editorial career includes magazine

work in New York and London.

Refugee Camps of the Western Sahara Edited by Manuel Herz In cooperation with ETH Studio Basel Deals with refugee camps from an unconventional, urbanistic perspective A wide-ranging and richly illustrated documentation of urban phenomena and processes in refugee camps

Available August 2012 17 .6 × 23 .5 cm, 6 ¾ × 9 in approx. 512 pages approx. 800 illustrations, hardcover ISBN 978 -3 -03778 -291 -0 , English E UR 50 .– G BP 45 .– USD / CAD 65 .–

From Camp to City examines the theme of the refugee camp in the context of urbanism and architecture. Using the examples of the refugee camps in the Algerian desert in which Sahrawis originally from the Western Sahara have been living for 35 years, the book looks at the “urban” aspects of these settlements. In contrast to the standard way of seeing refugee camps as scenes of human misery and despair, the examination concentrates on how people live and dwell in refugee camps, on how they work, move around, and enjoy themselves, and looks at the spaces and structures that are created in the process. With numerous images and texts, individual aspects of urban life are presented and analyzed in the different chapters. As an examination of a “borderline case” of urbanity, the publication does not ignore the problematic aspects of this theme, but on the contrary: its potential explosiveness is further underscored by the focus on a “vocabulary of the urban.” It allows an understanding of the camps as a political project. The publication is based on research studies of the ETH Studio Basel, Institute of Contemporary Urbanism at the ETH Zürich. MANUE L HE RZ is an architect, based in Basel, Switzerland. Amongst his recently constructed buildings are the Jewish Community Center and Synagogue of Mainz (Germany) and the mixed-use building Legal / Illegal in Cologne. He currently is the head of teaching and research at ETH Studio Basel—Institute of the Contemporary City. Besides his work as a practicing architect, he researches and works in the field of architecture of “humanitarian action.”

Trust has become a critical issue in our society. Something as simple as eating or shopping for food becomes an exercise in trust as we weigh organic claims against reports of genetically modified foods and contamination. How can trust be strengthened through the objects, services, and spaces we use? What are the ingredients of trust? Does trust have a color? A look? A feel? Can you design trust? Can you trust design? For a topic of such vast importance in our daily lives, little attention is paid to the real-world, tactile qualities of trust. Trust Design shows how trust can be communicated between the design of the object, system, or space, and the audience or end-user. Featuring examples of products, systems, services, interfaces, and spaces designed with trust in mind, Trust Design brings an often intangible concept into the physical world.

SCOTT BURNHAM is a writer, researcher and creative director focusing on new

approaches to design, and understanding design’s impact on society, from products and services to public spaces. He directed the “Trust Design Project” for Premsela, Netherlands Institute for Design and Fashion.

Design culture is obsessed with authenticity. Copying is often deemed reprehensible, and borrowing another’s idea or incorporating elements of his or her work into one’s own is viewed as a sign of creative impoverishment. But is this right? What’s wrong with interpreting someone else’s creation? Musicians have been quoting each other’s work for centuries—why shouldn’t the same thing happen in other creative disciplines? Where does quotation end and copying begin, and how original is an original anyway? Is intellectual property protection appropriate in an age of digital distribution, when it’s difficult to identify a product’s author, maker, or inventor? And in a culture in which quotation and copying have long led to enrichment and innovation, should these acts be made impossible? In this book, several thinkers from the worlds of design, architecture, art, business, and copyright law elaborate on the future of copyright and the right to copy.

This title, published in 1979 and long since out of print, now appears as a reprint from Lars Müller Publishers. The original book was released in the series of publications Source Materials of the Contemporary Arts initiated by Kasper König and produced by the Press of the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. The publication represents an important document in Dan Graham’s artistic examination of the video medium. Graham’s installations and performances with video from the years 1970 –78 are documented with numerous illustrations, photos, and brief descriptions. In addition, the volume contains an essay by the artist in which he examines the various possibilities and forms of representation offered by the video medium, and draws the boundaries between these and representational spaces in television, film, or architecture. The book also offers contributions by Michael Asher and Dara Birnbaum, as well as an annex with a biography and bibliography. DAN G RAHAM , born in Urbana, Illinois, in 1942 , is one of the most renowned contem-

porary artists. His work often focuses on cultural phenomena, incorporating materials as diverse as photography, video, performance, glass, and mirror structures. Dan Graham lives and works in New York.

News represents a further development of the much-acclaimed work of artist Thomas Flechtner. Whereas in Snow he looked at snow as a metaphor for timelessness, calm, distance, and loneliness, and in Bloom Flechtner used atmospherically condensed studies of plants to examine the boundless colorfulness and movement of grown nature, for his new project News Flechtner collected newspaper front pages over a period of one year, scattered plant seeds from very different countries over them, watered them, and, finally, exposed them to the sun. He recorded the way the “news” was gradually bleached and overgrown with plants in more than one hundred color photographs. Flechtner contrasts the anarchy of nature with the agenda of mankind, while also questioning the ﬂeetingness of memory and the demands made on it in shaping today’s world. THOMAS FLECHTNE R , born in Winterthur in 1961 , studied at the Ecole de

photographie, Vevey. He has received numerous prizes for his photographic works, which he regularly exhibits. He lives and works in Valliere, France and in Zürich. RELATED TITLE Bloom, page 46

After examining political and economic structures of power in Protokoll and Tropical Gift, in the publication In Jesus’ Name photographer Christian Lutz turns his focus on the ritual and social behavior patterns within a religious organization. For several months he has documented the evangelical group “International Christian Fellowship” in Switzerland. With a coolly distanced view, his photographs show the yearning for belonging and for jointly experienced spirituality that is made manifest in large religious events. They reveal that at such meetings—in stadiums but also in remote camping sites—location and clothing play a less important role than the experience of community and cultic ritual. Lutz critically questions the emotionally charged meetings and reveals parallels to other social mass events such as rock concerts or football matches. CHRISTIAN LUTZ , born in Geneva in 1973 , studied at the Ecole Supérieure des Arts de l’Image, “Le 75 ” in Brussels. His artistic work has been awarded many prizes in

Switzerland and abroad, and is regularly shown in exhibitions. RELATED TITLES Tropical Gift, page 45 Protokoll, page 45 Faith Is, page 47

China’s spectacular growth has brought not just prosperity, but also serious damage to the environment. For photojournalist Andreas Seibert, the present state of the Huai River is a clear example of these problems. Several stretches of the river have been so seriously polluted by toxic waste that people are advised not to even touch the water. Seibert has traveled along the river from source to mouth in order to record how it changes from a stretch of water rising amidst unspoiled nature into a large and poisonous river. Pictures taken on his travels present the poor hinterlands which are generally forgotten in discussions on China, and show the people who live on and near the river—in a habitat on the brink of destruction. ANDREAS SE IBE RT was born in 1970 in Wettingen, Aargau, Switzerland. He studied

photography at the Hochschule der Künste in Zürich and German literature and philosophy at the University of Zürich. He has lived in Tokyo since 1997 . His photographic work has been published in numerous international magazines and shown in exhibitions all over the world.

Ever since the first days following the disastrous events that took place in Japan in March 2011 , photojournalist Kazuma Obara has been visiting the sites and the people affected. He even visited the Fukushima power plant itself, where he talked to the workers involved. The series of portraits and interviews he produced is published for the first time in this publication. Obara’s photographs offer touching insights about the consequences of the events surrounding Fukushima. Recollected in this book, they offer a long-term perspective and pose the question of responsibility. They bring to mind just how far-reaching the consequences of this catastrophe are, for the people on site as well as worldwide. The book offers a view that goes beyond the pure facts on site—Beyond Fukushima. KAZUMA OBARA , born in Iwate in 1985 , Japan, is a photojournalist. He studied social

sciences at Utsunomiya University and continued his studies at Days Japan Photo Journalism School. Three days after the earthquake disaster, he began documenting what was happening in the affected areas. His photographs from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant have been published all over Europe.

the MediCaLization of arChiteCture

Today we are anxious about ground pollution, food safety, smog, obesity and aging. Because almost everything in our surroundings is perceived as a possible source of disease, the health, defence and fortification of the body is an obsessive pursuit. Design is also affected by such anxieties. Imperfect Health investigates the historical connections between health, design and the environment, bringing to light uncertainties and contradictions in cultures informed by Western medicine, to insist on a challenging hypothesis: that urbanism, landscape design and architecture take care of their “inhabitants,” instead of seeking an ultimate cure.

AFTER CRISIS

Architectural Papers V concentrates on the new conditions for architectural practice and the epistemologies that may inform it now that the financial bubble has collapsed and living and working conditions have significantly changed. Essays, studies, and interviews, along with a selection of illustrative projects, tackle the actual issues of growth and shrinking, economy and ideology, craftsmanship and social space in the city, and materiality and sustainability in architecture. The Architectural Papers series covers a wide range of topics related to teaching and architectural culture in general, and is aimed at expanding the narrow boundaries of the discipline. Established in 2005, the series is edited by Chair Prof. Dr. Josep Lluís Mateo at ETH Zürich.

Until a couple of years ago, my idea was that I had no need for a residence. I spent most of my time in my studio or traveling. Katharina Grosse

My apartment was just to sleep in.

Katharina Grosse Now I’m going to plant a kitchen garden around the house.

For Future’s Sake! sets itself the goal of conveying the knowledge revealed by current climate research in a manner that is both concise and appealing. It differs from other books on climate change principally in the way it is conceived as a visual reader that deliberately uses the effectiveness and power of the image to present the theme in a graphic way. Extensive series of images with large photographs and informative diagrams accompany well-researched essays on and around the themes of climate history, research and policy and thus offer an in-depth examination. The book provides insights into the history of the earth’s climate and reveals the factors that are responsible for climate change. It poses questions and provides answers: why is the earth becoming warmer? What are the consequences we must reckon with? What can we do against this? Who determines the future? As both a volume of illustrations and a reader, For Future’s Sake! is directed at all those who want to equip themselves with knowledge and understanding to confront what is probably our planet’s most pressing problem. RE NÉ SCHWARZE NBACH was dean of the Department of Environmental Sciences

at ETH Zürich.
