Kogei 2020 - The Art Of Crafting Beauty From Nature

Seigensha Kyoto 2020ISBN 9784861528101$ 36.20* -- Idea Code 20523

This exhibition catalogue presents more than 80 works by artists specialising in traditional Japanesehandicraft, or ‘k?gei’. Examples range from objects for everyday use to innovative contemporaryartworks. K?gei art is produced by independent studio artists using traditional craft materials andprocesses, working in close conformity with nature. One of its most fundamental characteristics is“function”, but with the influence of Western aesthetics and art theory during the Meiji period,objects with a practical use came to be seen as merely utility items. In the 20th century, this attitudetransformed into a broader appreciation for the artistic value of k?gei in Japanese culture.

Gotico-antica, Proto-roman, Hybrid 15th Century Types Between Gothic And Roman

Ensad / Poem Nancy 2021ISBN 9782378962265$ 68.95* -- Idea Code 21158

author: C. Kirchstetter, J. Knebuch Ez Eds.

This is the first comprehensive scientific study of hybrid gothic and roman typefaces created inGermany, Italy, and France in the 15th century. The book brings together researchers fromtypography, palaeography, and incunabula studies, with a particular focus on type and letterforms.The relatively understudied period – after Gutenberg and before the consolidation of Jenson’smodel – extends from the earliest traces of “humanistic” tendencies to “pure” roman type, includingmany cases of uncertain or experimental design, voluntary hybridisation and proto- or archaicroman. That includes the “Durandus”, a typeface unlike any other before it, used in Mainz for atome on worship in 1459.

author: S.f. Ernst, J. Tratz / Fakt

Over the past century, Berlin has undergone countless transformations. Rapid growth, destruction,survival, and finally a halting revival as a twin city reunited once more. This last phase has beencharacterised by stagnation and even shrinkage, which in turn strengthened Berlin’s unusualconfiguration as a polycentric settlement with no clear core. This atlas of the special, strange, orundiscovered phenomena of the German capital is structured in eighteen chapters and offers afascinating insider’s look at its architectural geography, urban history, political upheavals, scenicspaces, curiosities, and more. Newly drawn maps and detailed illustrations reveal Berlin as neverbefore seen.

author: M. Berghauser Pont, P Haupt

'Spacematrix' explores the potential of urban density as a tool for urban planning and design. Theauthors’ fascination with density is driven by the desire to understand the relational logic betweendensity, urban form and performance. This is a prerequisite for understanding and successfullypredicting the effects of specific designs and planning proposals. The focus of attention is therelationship between types of urban environment and data such as amount, size and physicalproperties.

The second book in the ‘A.MAG Long Collection’ reveals a very special project in a highly sensitiveway. Australian architect Nicholas Burns designed a chapel and meditation room for a private clientthat stands on a hillside of an estate in northern Portugal, overlooking denser urbanisation andgreen hills. The snaking granite path leading to the chapel awakens all of the senses – of time, theseasons, and place. The building’s sinuous, naked concrete form sits between giant boulders andtrees; a gilded wooden altar is dramatically illuminated within. According to Burns, these are theelemental things that are important in order for people to feel naturally deeper within themselves.

Avisa Madrid 2021ISBN 02141256$ 24.30* -- Idea Code 21079

If the work of Rafael Moneo had to be tied to a single word, it would be ‘context.’ In both senses:attention to context as material capacity to intervene, with sensitivity, in different places andlandscapes; and attention to context as spiritual capacity to echo the culture of every location. Thisis demonstrated in the two projects presented in the new issue of 'Arquitectura Viva', each onelinked to the concept of ‘cultural landscape’ and commented on, with his usual pedagogy, by theauthor himself: the Descendientes de J. Palacios winery in Corullón and the building atSchinkelplatz in Berlin.

In this liquid manner Holl has created a global oeuvre centered onbuildings of civic importance, where a determination to pay close attention to how buildings areperceived comes to the fore, as in the three works featured in this issue, all of them in the UnitedStates: a library in New York, the additions to the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., and theMuseum of Fine Arts in Houston.

author: D. Peleman, J. Engels Eds.

The history of architecture can not only be read as an accumulation of buildings and designs, butalso as a pendulum movement between the appreciation and the rejection of projects, oeuvres, andpositions, driven by varying arguments. In addition to conventional general publications, reviews inprofessional journals and criticism in magazines, other media increasingly play a part. Oeuvres andprojects are subject to trends, to waves of appreciation by audiences and critics. This issue of OASEinvestigates how changing appreciations can act as productive misunderstandings and as leversthat can take architecture criticism a step forward.
