Yohji Yamamoto, contribution by Jean Nouvel and Wim Wenders and Charlotte Rampling and Takeshi Kitano
ID: 12694
Видавництво: Rizzoli

Since the early ’80s, Yohji Yamamoto’s groundbreaking silhouettes and innovative design aesthetic have propelled him to the highest rank of the international avant-garde.  Distinguished by his anti-fashion approach, Yamamoto changed the face of contemporary fashion, radically transforming it with asymmetrical and highly conceptual designs partly inspired by the techniques of traditional Japanese kimonos. His vision came as a refreshing contrast to the power suits and brightly clad fashions of the time, forcing a reconsideration of the future direction of fashion. In YAMAMOTO & YOHJI, this luxuriously bound book explores all the major themes in his forty years of counter-fashion design showing for the very first time his work not only on the Yamamoto brands but as well on his brand Y’s and these various collaborations in architecture, movies, plays, literature.

Illustrated with photographs by Craig McDean, Inez & Vinoodh, Max Vadukul and Nick Knight, each chapter elaborates on a particular theme — his sartorial philosophy, influential extensions into scenography, runway shows, monographic exhibitions, and costume design — and is anchored by an essay or interview that lends crucial insight to the story of Yohji Yamamoto, one of the most enigmatic and iconoclastic fashion designers of our time.

Nouvel vague. France's leading architect

Jean Nouvel, the winner of the 2008 Pritzker Prize, is widely regarded as France’s most original and important contemporary architect. From 1967 to 1970 he assisted influential architects Claude Parent and Paul Virilio, before creating his own practice in Paris. His first widely acclaimed project was the Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris (1981–87). Since then he has completed the Lyon Opera House and the Fondation Cartier, Paris.

His major completed projects since 2000 include the Culture and Convention Center in Lucerne, Switzerland, the spectacular Agbar Tower in Barcelona, the Quai Branly Museum in Paris, the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and the Hotel Sofitel Vienna Stephansdom with shopping mall. Jean Nouvel was the 2001 recipient of the RIBA Royal Gold Medal for Architecture. In his citation, Peter Cook said of Nouvel: "In an age of blandness, imitation, or doubt, his work shines through as having both clarity and finesse, originality and lyricism."

Text by Annie Cohen-Solal and Jean Nouvel, Contributions by Jean-Paul Sarte and Galerie Patrick Seguin
ID: 15889
Видавництво: Rizzoli

A catalogue documenting two exhibitions of works by Alexander Calder and Jean Prouvé at Gagosian Gallery, Paris, and Galerie Patrick Seguin, Paris. Calder and Prouvé met in the early 1950s. They corresponded regularly between Calder’s frequent trips to Paris, exchanging ideas on architecture and sculpture. In 1958, Calder collaborated with Prouvé to construct the steel base of La Spirale, a monumental mobile for the UNESCO site in Paris. Letters between the two are illustrated and reprinted in the catalogue.

Calder/Prouvé evokes comparisons in the broad, expressive range of production, emphasis on form, and use of new technologies that the close friends and collaborators evinced in their parallel practices as artist and designer. Considered together, the works in this book testify to the fruitful exchange between two giants of modernism in its most utopian aspirations. Calder works in the book include mobiles, stabiles, and a suite of thirty little-known animal drawings, while Prouvé is represented by rare examples of furniture and architecture including two prefabricated structures. Calder’s invention of the mobile resonated with both early Conceptual and Constructivist art as well as the language of early abstract painting. Prouvé is widely acknowledged as one of the twentieth century’s most influential industrial designers, with a wide-ranging oeuvre that brought a strong social conscience to bold elegant design within an economy of means. Never-before-published letters between Calder and Prouve are illustarted and reprinted in the catalogue.

Вертикальный сад. Из природы в город.

Французский биолог и ландшафтный дизайнер Партик Бланк (Patrick Blanc) становится всё более популярным далеко за пределами своей родины. А всё благодаря его научным разработкам — оригинальным решениям вертикального озеленения для садов и целых городских кварталов. Он стал всемирно известен благодаря изобретённой им системе биологического декора, незамысловато названного «вертикальной стеной» или «растительной стеной» (mur végétal). Системы Патрика Бланка позволили взглянуть на ландшафтный дизайн мегаполисов совершенно под другим углом зрения. Его «стены» можно сооружать как на наружных стенах прямо в городе, так и внутри помещений. Используя тот же метод, Патрик предлагает и чисто «домашние» решения.

Сегодня вертикальные сады Бланка украшают фасады административных зданий, ресторанов, паркингов, шопинг-центров, музеев, фешенебельных бутиков и отелей всего мира. Став неотъемлемым элементом парижского дизайна, «живые» стены можно увидеть в офисах международных компаний и банков. Французское посольство в Дели, эксклюзивные бутики на Манхеттене и в Париже, торговый центр в Бангкоке, музеи современного искусства во Франции, Бразилии и Японии – все это лишь неполный перечень мест, где можно полюбоваться творениями Патрика Бланка.

Эта книга является монографией Патрика Бланка. Первая глава посвящена источникам вдохновения Патрика - природе, а именно особенности жизни растений  рядом с водопадами, на скалах, на деревьях, в пещерах и т.д. Во второй главе автор рассказывает о взаимосвязи  растений и архитектуры. Основная третья глава рассказывает о принципах и схеме устройства вертикальных садов и представляет около пятидесяти проектов Патрика Бланка со схемами расположения растений на полноцветных фотографиях отличного качества.

The secrets of plants that cling, grip, and climb, from the inventor of the vertical garden

Patrick Blanc, an artist with a green thumb, has created dozens of his admired botanical tapestries in public and private spaces around the world, including the Marithé & François Girbaud boutique in Manhattan; the Jean Nouvel-designed Quai Branly Museum in Paris; the aquarium in Genoa; the Siam Paragon mall in Bangkok; and the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art in Kanazawa, Japan. In this luscious, oversize, all-color book, he explains how to create plant walls using more than one thousand plants, drawing on his observation of natural milieus, his technique of growing on vertical surfaces, his savoir faire, and his passion for plants.

В январе 2009 года торжественно открылось новое здание концертного зала в Копенгагене, и уже в первом номере журнала TATLIN PLAN за 2009 год читатели смогут познакомиться с деталями этого проекта. Музыкальный комплекс, который стал частью штаб-квартиры Датской телерадиовещательной корпорации, спроектирован недавним притцкеровским лауреатом французом Жаном Нувелем – а Нувель известен тем, что никогда не повторяется. На этот раз все объемы, в том числе 4 звукозаписывающие студии и сам концертный зал на 1600 мест, он упрятал в полупрозрачную голубоватую оболочку в форме куба стороной 35 м, которая будет подсвечиваться изнутри и снаружи, постоянно меняя облик здания. Концертный зал напоминает огромную деревянную скульптуру, а в его интерьере, образованном выпуклыми акустическими мембранами, ни одна поверхность своей геометрией не повторяет другую. Музыканты предрекают залу непревзойденную акустику, а архитекторам мы предлагаем оценить виртуозную и находчивую работу Нувеля с формой, конструкцией, пространством, материалом и цветом.

Журнал TATLIN PLAN представляет один единственный проект. Вся архитектурная «кухня», подробные сведения по проектированию объекта, его инженерии и технологиям, которыми пользуются сегодня самые передовые архитекторы. Актуальность издания предопределена его характером. Журнал уже пользуется спросом не только у практикующих архитекторов, но и привлекает внимание конструкторов, инженеров и строителей.

Журнал открывает рубрика, подробно представляющая историю создания проекта (эскизы, рендеры, макеты, схемы). Основной блок составляет подборка основных листов рабочей документации. Рассказ об объекте завершается фотографиями процесса строительства и готового здания. Каждый номер содержит подробное описание архитектурных и технических решений, подробные данные об авторах и разработчиках проекта.

Nouvel by Nouvel. France's premier architect designs his own monograph

The work of France's internationally celebrated contemporary architect - and recipient of the 2008 Pritzker Prize - in a book designed by the master himselfю

Jean Nouvel, the winner of the 2008 Pritzker Prize, is widely regarded as France’s most original and important contemporary architect. From 1967 to 1970, he assisted influential architects Claude Parent and Paul Virilio, before creating his own practice in Paris. His first widely acclaimed project was the Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris (1981-87). Since then, he has completed the Lyon Opera House, the Euralille Shopping Center, Lille, and the Fondation Cartier, Paris. His major completed projects since 2000 include the Culture and Convention Center in Lucerne, Switzerland, the spectacular Agbar Tower in Barcelona, the extension of the Reina Sofia Museum, Madrid, the Quai Branly Museum in Paris, and the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Nouvel won the RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) Gold Medal in 2001 and the Pritzker Prize in 2008.

Jean Nouvel worked for five years with author Philip Jodidio on this prodigiously illustrated TASCHEN monograph, a book commensurate with the architect’s talent. Two 400-page hardcover volumes give the most complete overview to date of Jean Nouvel’s career, including works in progress such as the new Louvre in Abu Dhabi, the Philharmonie de Paris, and the MoMA extension in New York. The book’s graphic design and images were conceived and selected by the architect; in addition, the transparent printed dust jackets mimic the architect’s own tendency to play with contrasts and overlaid patterns. This publication is Nouvel by Nouvel, inside and out.
