BILL, Max
Max Bill 2G N0 29:
Max Bill's work as a painter, sculptor, graphic designer, theorist and educator has been widely publicized, especially since his death in 1994. The same thing hasn't occurred with his work as an architect, notwithstanding Max Bill's own lifelong commitment to this facet of his creative undertaking. Peter Smithson classified Bill as a "silent architect" from the second-generation of the Modern Movement because despite the importance of his oeuvre it didn't get the recognition it deserved. This publication brings all of Max Bill's architectural work together for the first time, along with texts by the foremost experts on his oeuvre (Stanislaus von Moos, Hans Frei, Karin Gimmi, Arthur Ruegg and Jakob Bill) and new documentary photos by the Swiss photographer Georg Aerni.

Areal: Joachim Brohm Steidl
Joachim Brohm undertook a photo-urban project of long-term observation. For roughly a decade, from 1992-2002, he took photographs of the same location-on the outskirts of a German city-as it was being redeveloped from a 1950's commercial/industrial district into a gentrified post-industrial services centre & living area. In a meditative return, Brohm cartographically captured the premises, their buildings & materials, & chronologically documented the changes & developments during this period. His photographs simultaneously depict & dissolve the outside world, lending the transitory, hovering state of reality & meaning a powerful pictorial form. Steidl Verlag Germany 2002 263pp HB $A77.00

Burle Marx: The Lyrical Landscape Montero, Marta Iris (Foreword by Martha Schwartz)
Roberto Burle Marx was unquestionably one of the most influential landscape and garden designers of the twentieth century. His sweeping forms and painterly approach to planting were revolutionary when they first came to public attention in the 1930's, and many designs today owe his vision a great debt. At a time when landscape design is more lively and important than ever, this tribute to a master of popular modern design is destined to inspire gardens, landscapes and outdoor spaces in same way it will inspire the reader of the finely written and detailed text.

In two volumes, this package provides comprehensive documentation of the creative processes which underlie Santiago Calatrava's unique and prolific architectural output, featuring his personal thoughts, unique documents and analyses. The first volume, "fundamentals", presents Calatrava's doctoral thesis which combines the varying disciplines of engineering, mathematics and architecture. In the second volume, "sketchbooks", three of Calatrava's key sketch books are presented, capturing the essence of his experimental, biomorphic, surreal, metaphorical and analogical thought processes. In this publication, the editors, examine the hypothesis that both analytical and analogical creative tendencies are evident in Calatrava's works. These volumes provide a unique glimpse into the mind of this architect where both opposites seem to form a rare synthesis, producing works of the highest quality and integrity.

Those who know one or two aspects of their work are often surprised to learn just how far and wide their range extended.

Inescapably controversial, its very existence challenged by German intellectuals like Günter Grass, the Holocaust Memorial Berlin (or, as it’s formally known, the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe) is now finished, some 16 years after it was first proposed. Peter Eisenman’s design, which filled a four-football-field-size parcel of land in the middle of Berlin with more than 2,700 concrete slabs, or stellae, was itself hotly debated, with some complaining that its abstractness, Eisenman’s trademark, made it a monument that evoked no memories.

ELIASSON, Olafur
Olafur Eliasson: Surroundings Surrounded
Essays on Space and Science. Weibel, Peter Ed.
"This book is an innovative project, because the exclusivity with which art theory and art criticism are renounced renders possible a new alliance between science and art, and documents how the two as parallel worlds, cross over into each other with equal justification and do not exist as divided cultures. As a result you have in front of you a book which not only offers an almost encyclopedic insight into science and the terrains of its problems such as space, but also the implicated problematics of the most topical contemporary art, which is orieNted to the future". This is an amazing book, framed with the art of Eliasson whose work unites art and science, and with 55 accompanying essays by Lefebvre, Rajchman, Koolhaas, Diller + Scofidio, UN Studio, Vidler, De Landa, and many more artists, architects, philosophers and writers.

2G: Foreign Office Architects
"Architecture is not a plastic art, but the engineering of material life". FOA has been compared to practices such as Reiser + Umemoto, Greg Lynn, UNStudio and others. Principle in the methodology is the desire to 'hyperindex' their buildings and design process - blending program upon program and information upon information, to end up with superfluid and alchemical results.

Phylogenesis: FOA’S ARK
Foreign office architects
This is a structured reflection of the work that Foreign Office Architects (FOA) has produced during its first 10 years of practice. With its genesis as a primarily speculative & academic endeavour, FOA has recently expended much energy in the development of a technical arsenal for implementing real projects. Such explorations have been undertaken through a series of competitions, speculative commissions, & lately some real projects, some of them already completed, others still under construction. The outcome of these years is seen not just as a series of experiments, defined by the specific conditions of a project, but as a consistent reservoir of architectural species to be proliferated, mutated, & evolved in the near future. With the spirit of a scientific classification, the genesis of the projects is here identified as the evolution of a series of "phylums," actualised--& simultaneously virtualised--in their application to the specific conditions where the projects take place. Phylogenesis also includes an FOA-curated compilation of previously published texts from several critics who analyze "external" topics that relate to different aspects of the firm's discourse.

Heren 5 is not interested so much in having its own "image" or "signature" as in designing buildings that suit the needs of the future residents & of the particular site.
