This book was released on 2001-11-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1996 and 2000 the renowned architects Herzog & de Meuron built a new research centre together with a library, auditorium and cafeteria for the pharmaceutical company Roche in Basle. Situated on the outskirts of the town on the edge of the industrial area, the building was to include a closed section for laboratories yet should also be publicly accessible: the ideal starting point for an interdisciplinary solution. Artist Rémy Zaugg worked together with the architects developing the colours used. In particular he created a dramatic blue wall which separates public and restricted areas. This publication documents the entire project from its genesis to the completed construction, using texts, sketches, plans and photographs. More than a mere monograph, this book provides a fascinating glimpse into the creative collaboration occuring between architects and artists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than any of their contemporaries, Swiss architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron are challenging the boundaries between architecture and art. Natural History explores that challenge, examining how the work of this formidable pair has drawn upon the art of both past and present, and brought architecture into dialogue with the art of our time. Echoing an encyclopedia, this publication reflects the natural history museum structure of the exhibition which it accompanies, organized by the Canadian Centre for Architecture. Models and projects by Herzog & de Meuron, as well as by other artists, are structured around six thematic portfolios that suggest an evolutionary history of the architects' work: Appropriation & Reconstruction, Transformation & Alienation, Stacking & Compression, Imprints & Moulds, Interlocking Spaces, and Beauty & Atmosphere. Each section is introduced with a statement from Herzog, and more than 20 artists, scholars, and architects have contributed essays, including Carrie Asman, Georges Didi-Huberman, Kurt W. Forster, Boris Groys, Ulrike Meyer Stump, Peggy Phelan, Thomas Ruff, Rebecca Schneider, Adolf Max Vogt, and Jeff Wall.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die globale Erfolgsgeschichte der Basler Architekten Jacques Herzog und Pierre de Meuron hat ihre lokalen Wurzeln. Ihnen spürt dieses Buch nach und arbeitet so die wesentlichen Leitlinien, die Berufsethik und die Entwicklung des 1978 gegründeten Büros heraus. Sowohl die Biografien der beiden Architekten als auch die Tätigkeit ihres Büros sind eng mit der Stadt Basel verbunden. Von dieser Basler Verankerung ausgehend, erörtern die Autoren zentrale Themen dieses Oeuvres: vom Habitat bis zum Monument. Anhand exemplarischer Bauwerke analysieren sie Motive, konstruktive Prinzipien und Raumgestaltung im architektonischen Werk von Herzog & de Meuron. Darüber hinaus führen Jacques Herzog und Pierre de Meuron in Rundgängen durch Basel und die Umgebung: Statements der Architekten und eigens für das Buch aufgenommene Fotografien von George Dupin stellen Orte und Gebäude vor, die eine Schlüsselrolle für die Arbeit der Architekten spielen. Ein intensiver Gedankenaustausch der beiden Architekten mit Jean-François Chevrier rundet das Buch ab.

Download or read book Treacherous Transparencies written by Jacques Herzog and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treacherous Transparencies analyzes transparency as expressed in architecture and art in an attempt to understand the intentions and objectives that underlie its use by pertinent architects and artists. The publication looks at a few important works by selected artists and architects who work with transparency as an artistic strategy, which they implement primarily by using glass and mirrors but other media as well. e architects and artists listed together in this context form an unlikely alliance: Bruno Taut, Ivan Leonidov, Marcel Duchamp, Mies van der Rohe, Dan Graham, and Gerhard Richter. But they do have something in common: their work marks salient way stations in the story of modernism up to the present day. Concept & text by Jacques Herzog and photographs of Farnsworth House by Pierre de Meuron.

Book excerpt: ABER ICH / DIE WELT / ICH SEHE DICH Rémy Zaugg (1943-2005) war ein in Basel und Mulhouse lebender und wirkender Künstler von ­internationaler Bedeutung. Von seinem eigenen Verständnis her war er Maler, doch beschränkte er sich nicht auf die Produktion von Bildern. Vielmehr generierte er aus seiner ­malerischen Praxis heraus generelle Annahmen für ein prozessuales Werkver­ständnis, mit dem er räumliche, architekto­nische und urbane Zusammenhänge in neuer, ungewohnter Weise in den Blick nahm. Entsprechend stand im Mittelpunkt seiner Überlegungen stets der wahr­nehmende Mensch als Mitglied der Gesellschaft - alle seine ästhe­tischen ­Annahmen mündeten in ­die emanzipatorische Idee des »werdenden« Subjekts. Neben seinem umfangreichen malerischen und schrift­­lichen OEuvre sind deshalb seine ­Aktivitäten und Projekte für und im öffentlichen Raum wesent­lich für das Verständnis der be­sonderen künstlerischen Position Rémy Zauggs. Diesem gesellschaft-­ lich relevanten Themen­komplex ist das Buch gewidmet, das alle dies­bezüg­lichen realisierten und nichtrealisierten Projekte des Künstlers dokumentiert und ­ins­be­sondere folgende Schwerpunkte seines Schaffens fokussiert: ­Museumsarchitektur (hier vor allem die ­Zusammenarbeit mit Herzog & de Meuron), Ausstel­lungen mit Werken anderer KünstlerInnen, Kunst im öffentlichen Raum sowie seine Theorie und Praxis vereinende Beschäf­tigung mit der künstlerischen Methodik, der Kooperation und dem Werkbegriff.

Download or read book Architecture and Movement written by Peter Blundell Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-12-17 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The experience of movement, of moving through buildings, cities, landscapes and in everyday life, is the only involvement most individuals have with the built environment on a daily basis. User experience is so often neglected in architectural study and practice. Architecture and Movement tackles this complex subject for the first time, providing the wide range of perspectives needed to tackle this multi-disciplinary topic. Organised in four parts it: documents the architect’s, planner’s, or designer’s approach, looking at how they have sought to deploy buildings as a promenade and how they have thought or written about it. concentrates on the individual’s experience, and particularly on the primacy of walking, which engages other senses besides the visual. engages with society and social rituals, and how mutually we define the spaces through which we move, both by laying out routes and boundaries and by celebrating thresholds. analyses how we deal with promenades which are not experienced directly but via other mediums such as computer models, drawings, film and television. The wide selection of contributors include academics and practitioners and discuss cases from across the US, UK, Europe and Asia. By mingling such disparate voices in a carefully curated selection of chapters, the book enlarges the understanding of architects, architectural students, designers and planners, alerting them to the many and complex issues involved in the experience of movement.

Download or read book Urban Scape Switzerland written by Angelus Eisinger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Settlement areas today can no longer be aptly described as either "urban" or "rural". We now live in sprawling conglomerations, collages of urban, suburban, and rural elements. New political solutions need to be found, challenging the institutional framework of federalism and the concept of local government. Commissioned by the foundation 'avenir suisse' (Think Tank for Economic and Social Issues), this publication gathers contributions by experts from the fields of sociology, geography, politics, economics and architecture, including Winy Maas' (MVRDV) vision for a Switzerland of the future. Whilst focusing on Switzerland as a case study, this book is a thought-provoking report on the gradual changes taking place in all industrialised countries. Angelus Eisinger teaches at the Department of Architecture at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. Michael Schneider is the project leader at 'avenir suisse'.
