Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta publicación sintetiza una extensa investigación y experimentación sobre el espacio en la escultura a partir de un análisis interdisciplinar desde la arquitectura y otras artes que abordan el tema de la espacialidad. La reflexión teórica sobre el origen y desarrollo experimental de la escultura se genera a partir de la obra como conclusión proyectual y desde la misma se observan sus resonancias en este contexto interdisciplinario de la experiencia del espacio. Complementan este trabajo una serie de imágenes que constituyen universos comprimidos de ideas y mensajes codificados en un lenguaje que es propio de las artes visuales. En el libro se revisa el pensamiento teórico que permite una reflexión sobre la experiencia del espacio y las relaciones entre la escultura, la arquitectura y otras disciplinas. Se analizan obras de diversos autores en las que se manifiesta el paso de la objetualidad a la espacialidad escultórica. Se indaga la condición iterativa del proceso y los instrumentos proyectuales que establecen el vínculo entre la imaginación y la representación física de lo imaginado. Se reflexiona sobre el proceso compositivo del espacio escultórico y su efecto en la inducción de una experiencia poética. Finalmente, en el anexo se presenta una mirada diferente, a modo de ficciones espaciales, a partir de un conjunto de croquis inspirados en las esculturas, dibujados por Mario Ubilla Sanz.
Download or read book La idea de espacio en la arquitectura y el arte contempor neos 1960 1989 written by Javier Maderuelo Raso and published by Ediciones AKAL. This book was released on 2008-09-01 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La presente obra recrea el espacio como tema en la arquitectura y el arte contemporáneos, principalmente en el periodo que abarca desde los primeros años sesenta hasta finales de los ochenta, cuando la idea de espacio cobró un especial protagonismo. El análisis del papel del espacio en las artes se centra en la escultura y sus desbordamientos, de manera que se establece una especie de dialéctica entre el espacio arquitectónico y el escultórico, rastreando los ricos márgenes que se han generado en los límites de ambas disciplinas y que han dado origen a otros nuevos géneros en los que lo espacial aparece como una de sus características más definitorias. Sin pretender llega a hacer una historia de la cultura de una época o momento determinado, este ensayo intenta superar las metodologías al uso en historiografía del arte, así como los conceptos preestablecidos sobre las distintas artes para, sirviéndose de ideas y acontecimientos filosóficos, artístico, musicales, literarios y arquitectónicos, trazar un perfil del ambiente cultural que se respiró en Occidente tras la Segunda Guerra mundial. Para ello se sirve de un hilo conductor: la idea de espacio.

Download or read book Destination London written by Andrew Smith and published by University of Westminster Press. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: London is one of the world’s most popular destinations and visitors contribute approximately £14.9 billion of expenditure to the city every year. Its tourism and events sectors are growing and over the last few years London has received more visitors than ever before. However, detailed accounts of the city’s visitor economy are conspicuously absent. This book analyses how the capital is developing as a destination through the expansion of tourism and events into new urban spaces. The book outlines how parts of London not previously regarded as tourist territory are now subject to the visitor gaze with tourism spreading beyond established central zones into peripheral, suburban and residential areas – in part propelled by a big rise in peer to peer accommodation use. Simultaneously, London’s airports and sports stadiums and their surrounds are becoming destinations in their own right. New vantage points have been created, allowing tourists to explore the city: from above, at night-time or through tours given by the homeless; via the opening up of the River Thames; or through the transformation of local parks into eventscapes. The book explores these trends and shows how urban destinations expand. In doing so, it enhances our understanding of London and highlights the growing significance of tourism and events in global cities.
Download or read book Fit written by Robert Geddes and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why architecture matters—and how to make it matter more Fit is a book about architecture and society that seeks to fundamentally change how architects and the public think about the task of design. Distinguished architect and urbanist Robert Geddes argues that buildings, landscapes, and cities should be designed to fit: fit the purpose, fit the place, fit future possibilities. Fit replaces old paradigms, such as form follows function, and less is more, by recognizing that the relationship between architecture and society is a true dialogue—dynamic, complex, and, if carried out with knowledge and skill, richly rewarding. With a tip of the hat to John Dewey, Fit explores architecture as we experience it. Geddes starts with questions: Why do we design where we live and work? Why do we not just live in nature, or in chaos? Why does society care about architecture? Why does it really matter? Fit answers these questions through a fresh examination of the basic purposes and elements of architecture—beginning in nature, combining function and expression, and leaving a legacy of form. Lively, charming, and gently persuasive, the book shows brilliant examples of fit: from Thomas Jefferson's University of Virginia and Louis Kahn's Exeter Library to contemporary triumphs such as the Apple Store on New York's Fifth Avenue, Chicago's Millennium Park, and Seattle's Pike Place. Fit is a book for everyone, because we all live in constructions—buildings, landscapes, and, increasingly, cities. It provokes architects and planners, humanists and scientists, civic leaders and citizens to reconsider what is at stake in architecture—and why it delights us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does a particular landscape move us? What is it that attaches us to a particular place? Tall’s From Where We Stand is an eloquent exploration of the connections we have with places—and the loss to us if there are no such connections. A typically rootless child of several American suburbs, Tall set out to make a true home for herself in the landscape that circumstance had brought her—the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. In a mosaic of personal anecdotes, historical sketches, and lyrical meditations, she interweaves her own story with the story of this place and its people—from the Seneca Nation of the Iroquois, to European settlers, to the many utopians who sensed and were inspired by a spiritual resonance here. This edition includes an introduction by William Kittredge and a foreword by Stephen Kuusisto, both highlighting the book’s significance and Tall’s exquisite skill in tracing the relationship between homelands and storytelling.

Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of the acclaimed Chaos and Genius comes a thoughtful and provocative exploration of the big ideas of the modern era: Information, communication, and information theory. Acclaimed science writer James Gleick presents an eye-opening vision of how our relationship to information has transformed the very nature of human consciousness. A fascinating intellectual journey through the history of communication and information, from the language of Africa’s talking drums to the invention of written alphabets; from the electronic transmission of code to the origins of information theory, into the new information age and the current deluge of news, tweets, images, and blogs. Along the way, Gleick profiles key innovators, including Charles Babbage, Ada Lovelace, Samuel Morse, and Claude Shannon, and reveals how our understanding of information is transforming not only how we look at the world, but how we live.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Offers an intense scholarly experience in its comprehensiveness, its variety of voices and its formal organization... the editors took a risk, experimented and have delivered a much-needed resource that upends the status-quo." - Architectural Histories, journal of the European Architectural History Network "Architectural theory interweaves interdisciplinary understandings with different practices, intentions and ways of knowing. This handbook provides a lucid and comprehensive introduction to this challenging and shifting terrain, and will be of great interest to students, academics and practitioners alike." - Professor Iain Borden, UCL Bartlett School of Architecture "In this collection, architectural theory expands outward to interact with adjacent discourses such as sustainability, conservation, spatial practices, virtual technologies, and more. We have in The Handbook of Architectural Theory an example of the extreme generosity of architectural theory. It is a volume that designers and scholars of many stripes will welcome." - K. Michael Hays, Eliot Noyes Professor of Architectural Theory, Harvard University The SAGE Handbook of Architectural Theory documents and builds upon the most innovative developments in architectural theory over the last two decades. Bringing into dialogue a range of geographically, institutionally and historically competing positions, it examines and explores parallel debates in related fields. The book is divided into eight sections: Power/Difference/Embodiment Aesthetics/Pleasure/Excess Nation/World/Spectacle History/Memory/Tradition Design/Production/Practice Science/Technology/Virtuality Nature/Ecology/Sustainability City/Metropolis/Territory. Creating openings for future lines of inquiry and establishing the basis for new directions for education, research and practice, the book is organized around specific case studies to provide a critical, interpretive and speculative enquiry into the relevant debates in architectural theory.
