Prix : 25 €

The 1960s witnessed an esthetical “revolution” with the emergence of what was called Architecture-Sculpture.

From André Bloc to Claude Parent to Pierre Székély among others, it gathers, while exploring the collections of the FRAC Centre, the Centre Pompidou and the Fonds Cardot-Joly, the most emblematic creations of these artists-architects, as true sources of inspiration for today’s prospective architecture. |

DOMINIQUE
PERRAULT ARCHITECTURE
Prix : 40 €
ISBN : 978-2-910385-53-8
Bilingual edition (En/Fr) + DVD |
Dominique Perrault
surged onto the architectural scene and into the public eye at
the end of the 1980s with the building of the National Library
of France. He undertook this colossal project after a promising
early career during which he built a number of ambitious constructions
(including the ESIEE, the Berlier Industrial Hotel and the SAGEP
factory). After the library, the gates to the international arena
were wide open. Germany, Austria and Spain soon followed. Today,
Dominique Perrault Architecture, which boasts thirty years of
achievements in technical innovation and materials research, has
further expanded its scope and delivers buildings in the United
States, Russia and Asia. |

PAVILLON
SEROUSSI
Price : 28 €
ISBN : 978-2-910385-49-1
Bilingual edition (En/Fr) |
This book has
been published on the occasion of an international architectural
contest for construction of an art collector's house. Natalie
Seroussi brought together six out of the most innovative young
architectual firms in order to design a pavilion intended to house
her art collection. Those six firms have a common point , all
of them actively using the profound changes brought about by the
introduction of intense software-based processes into the very
heart of modern architectural practices, as all of them integrate
computational procedures, that is, processes based on an intense
application of computer-based calculation algorithms. The use
of formal programming languages and the exploration of advanced
specialised software seem to have completely redefined the principles
of architectural design. |
