Abstract

The Thinking Foot is a study of history and associations. In method and form it claims to be no more (nor less) than an illustrated essay on the architectural expression of surface. It concentrates on the Earth on which we walk: not the Earth in depth (the underground world) nor the geological Earth, but simply the Earth as visible crust, as surface. The Thinking Foot is indeed about surface and in particular about how this surface was made into a ‘civilized’ theatre of communal existence. Civilization means turning things, mostly private or wild, into communal or civic use. Untreated surface becomes communal ground through paving. Paving has many qualities. It hardens the ground, it hides the ground, it equalizes the ground and it protects the ground. Aesthetics certainly play an important part in its appreciation, but on the whole paving is intended to be practical; the intention of paving is to be practical and useful. Throughout its evolution paving has proved to be a necessity with very little artistic ambition and almost no depth. It is surface, just that.

Abstract

La place de la culture ne cesse de s'affirmer dans les villes occidentales en initiant un nouveau rapport au monde et en posant les questions de l'organisation urbaine, de la fonction des équipements et du rôle des espaces publics. Cet ouvrage, résultat de recherches et d'échanges menés par les équipes de la Maison des Sciences de l'Homme d'Aquitaine (MSHA) et de l'institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS Urbanisation) de Montréal, propose des regards originaux et diversifiés sur les lieux culturels et les contextes de villes. Ces travaux soulignent à la fois la réhabilitation des “lieux” comme élément support des cultures urbaines et l'émergence de formes inédites de culture ; ils proposent de repenser les équipements et les espaces publics en fonction des processus agissant sur le fonctionnement des villes.
