Abstract

Topfotograaf Iwan Baan beschouwt het werk van toparchitect Willem Dudok. Na honderd jaar is Dudoks manier van ontwerpen onverminderd aantrekkelijk en relevant: plaatsbewust, hypercontextueel en met liefde voor de omgeving. Met de foto's in dit boek breekt Baan met een traditie. Statische architectuurfoto's wisselt hij in voor beelden die een breder verhaal blootleggen. Het verhaal van Dudok als ontwerper van landschappen: om te wonen, te werken, te rouwen en te leren. Dit boek laat met imponerende lucht- en straatfotografie zien hoe deze veelzijdige architect-stedenbouwer door heel Nederland steden uitbreidde vanuit hun specifieke DNA en gebouwen als vanzelfsprekend in hun omgeving plaatste. De teksten zijn van architectuurhistoricus Lara Voerman. Top photographer Iwan Baan reflects on the work of renowned architect Willem Dudok. A century on, Dudok's way of designing continues to be attractive and relevant: space-conscious, hyper-contextual and environment-loving. With the photographs in this book, Baan breaks with a tradition. Rather than static architecture photographs, he includes images that reveal the whole story: the story of Dudok as a designer of landscapes in which people can live, work, mourn and learn. The impressive aerial and street photography in this book show how this versatile architect and urban designer expanded cities throughout the Netherlands on the basis of their individual DNA and placed buildings in their environments in a way that felt entirely natural.

Abstract

Torre David is an incomplete skyscraper in the center of the Venezuelan capital Caracas that has been occupied and reconstructed by local residents. Work on the building, named after the financial investor David Brillembourg, who died in 1993, was suspended during the Venezuelan financial crisis of 1994. After the office tower— the third highest in Venezuela—had stood empty for many years, it was taken over by the local population in 2008. The occupants made the building their own with improvisation and skill—it is a "vertical favela," now containing not just housing but also other everyday facilities such as an improvised doctor’s office, shops, and more. Photographer Iwan Baan has documented Torre David and its occupants, creating a portrait that captures the contradictions of the place while at the same time revealing urban structures that have emerged dynamically and without planning. Alfredo Brillembou rg was born in New York in 1961. In 1993 he founded Urban-Think Tank in Caracas, Venezuela. Since May 2010, Brillembourg holds a chair in architecture and urban design at the Swiss Institute of Technology, Zürich. Hubert Klumpne r was born in Salzburg in 1965. In 1998 he joined Alfredo Brillembourg as director of Urban-Think Tank in Caracas. Since 2010, Klumpner holds a chair in architecture and urban design at the Swiss Institute of Technology, Zürich.

Abstract

Shooting Space not only provides a quick and engaging display of beautiful photography but more careful examination rewards you with a timely survey of our built environment.Photography has always played a vital role in how architecture is communicated. For most of us, it is how we experience the most exceptional, arresting, unreachable, beautiful or ephemeral works we cannot visit in person. With immediate distribution and consumption of imagery now so readily available, photography and architecture together are more important than ever before.Single photographers are increasingly working closely and even exclusively with particular architects, allying their work with the design process itself. Some photographers are using new technologies to create visions of new architectures and imagined futures and others seek change through journalistic and social documentation.Shooting Space: Architecture in Contemporary Photography covers a diverse range of subjects and themes across the built environment. Presenting the work of leading contemporary architects (from Koolhass to Hadid), intense urbanisation and evolving natural landscapes by international photographers as diverse as Hélène Binet, Thomas Struth and Richard Wentworth.
