Download or read book The Modernist Garden in France written by Dorothée Imbert and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modernist garden, which flourished in France between the 1910s and the 1930s, vividly mirrored the geometries and cubist aesthetics familiar to the decorative and fine arts of the period. Created by architects and artists, these gardens were often conceived as tableaux in which plants played a role only as pigment or texture. This handsomely illustrated book by Dorothée Imbert presents for the first time - in word and image - a comprehensive study of these arresting architectonic gardens.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Elusive Modernist setzt sich mit der Geschichte der Moderne auseinander und zwar basierend auf dem Vermächtnis eines ihrer Protagonisten, Gabriel Guevrekian (ca. 1900–1970). Der in Istanbul geborene Guevrekian wuchs in Teheran auf und zog als junger Erwachsener nach Wien, um an der Kunstgewerbeschule Architektur zu studieren. Später arbeitete er mit Oskar Strnad, Josef Hoffmann, Adolf Loos, Henri Sauvage und Robert Mallet-Stevens, und zu seinen bekanntesten Entwürfen gehören der kubistische Garten für die Villa Noailles in Frankreich und zwei Häuser für die Wiener Werkbund-Ausstellung. Mit nicht einmal dreißig Jahren galt Guevrekian als eine der bedeutendsten Persönlichkeiten der europäischen Avantgarde in Paris. Im Laufe der 1930er-Jahre verbrachte er einige Jahre im Iran, wo er öffentliche Bauten entwarf; nach Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs lehrte er zunächst in Europa und schließlich in Amerika. Seine ganz unterschiedlichen Unternehmungen, sowie die Häuser und Nationalitäten, die er in Asien, Europa und Amerika besaß, führten zu einer Reihe sehr verschieden ausgeprägter Persönlichkeiten. Er füllte durch seine eigene, sehr unmittelbare Auseinandersetzung jede Disziplin mit Bedeutung aus, machte jede Stadt zum Zentrum und jede Ära epochal.

Download or read book Temporary Gardens written by Raffaella Sini and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-05-30 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last 30 years have seen a surge in temporary gardens. The flexibility and new challenges invested in non-permanent landscapes has made them a creative and stimulating testing ground for professionals and impromptu designers. Raffaella Sini examines the historical evolution of the genre, exploring theory, narratives, and strategies informing 80 temporary gardens built in France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Italy, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden, New Zealand, Canada, Singapore, and the United States. Key topics include: • temporary gardens in 1970s avant-garde art and 1980s public art; • temporary gardens as opportunities to work with live processes, practice inclusion, and explore concepts of social justice and ecology; • temporary gardens to redefine the vocabulary of garden design; and • temporary gardens in tactical urbanism. The book comprehensively decodifies the full range of ephemeral gardens: uprooted, mobile, itinerant, movable, postmodern, installation, exhibited, conceptual, theme, pop-up, guerrilla, grassroots, meanwhile, interim, provisional, activist, community, and parklet. Beyond physical duration, time-focused design in gardens affects the entire process of conceiving, building, experiencing, and managing green spaces; using short-term formats, anyone can invent, trial, and experiment in a condensed experience of landscape. The temporary garden emerges as critical cultural ground for the discourse in landscape architecture, art, ephemeral urbanism, and in urban, landscape, and garden design. It is inspirational reading for designers and students alike.

Download or read book Les Romains et L Eau written by Alain Malissard and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 1999-12 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [This book is written in French.] Vitale pour toute société humaine, l'eau est pour les Romains le symbole même de leur existence-depuis que Romulus, le fondateur, a été sauvé des eaux du Tibre-ainsi que de leur pouvoir sur les forces naturelles et sur les hommes. Ce livre montre comment ils ont répondu aux nécessités immédiates, mais aussi joint l'utile au plaisir, le futile à la grandeur. Avec une précision qui surprendra les ingénieurs et une suimplic-ité dont les profanes lui sauront gré, l'auteur retrace la quête obstinée de techniques souterraines et aériennes, qui permettent de capter les eaux dans les lointaines montagnes, de les conduire jusqu'aux villes, de les purifier, de les conserver et de les évacuer. On rencontre ici les Romains dans leur intimité, on entend leurs bavardages autour des fontaines, ou dans les latrines, on surprend leur admiration pour les empereurs évergètes qui leur offrent des thermes somptueux, mais on y trouve aussi les calculs des ingénieurs, leurs tâtonnements, leurs échecs et leurs réussites, et surtout la volonté de puissance d'un peuple qui, pour maîtriser la source de la vie, jetait à travers les plaines et par-dessus les val-lées profondes les arches puissantes et élégantes de ses aqueducs.
