Abstract

Contre l'architecture est une charge érudite contre l'esprit dans lequel travaillent actuellement les grands architectes. A travers une multitude d'exemples - New York, Tirana, Barcelone, ou encore Paris et ses banlieues -, l'auteur stigmatise les fourvoiements d'une profession qui, selon lui, a dénaturé sa fonction. L'architecture est devenue un jeu formel où l'on a perdu de vue le bien public, ce qui est désastreux pour la ville et ses habitants. Franco La Cecla s'insurge contre la transformation des villes en marques " labellisées, et insiste sur la nécessité de repenser l'espace urbain et les pratiques architecturales afin de protéger et d'améliorer nos conditions de vie. La crise des banlieues, la détérioration de l'environnement, l'épuisement des ressources, tout devrait nous pousser à réagir pour éviter que nos villes deviennent inhabitables.

Abstract

While the potential of agency is most frequently taken to be the power and freedom to act for oneself, for the architectural community this also involves the power and responsibility to act as intermediaries on behalf of others. Presenting current thinking from practitioners and scholars from around the world, this book asks for a more active relationship between the humanities, the architectural profession, and society. Considering issues of architectural research as an agency of transformation, this book explores how humanities research can better contribute towards understa

Abstract

In the pre-modern age in Europe, the architect built not merely with imagination, bricks and mortar, but with time, using vast quantities of duration as the means to erect monumental buildings that otherwise would have been impossible to achieve. Virtually all the great cathedrals of France and the rest of Europe were built by this deliberate practice, here given the name "Building-in-Time". It places an entirely new light on the major works of pre-modern Italy, from the Pisa cathedral group to the cathedrals of Milan, Venice and Siena, and from the monuments of fourteenth-century Florence to the new St Peter's. Even as this temporal regime was flourishing, the fifteenth-century Italian architect Leon Battista Alberti proposed a new one for architecture, in which time would ideally be excluded from the making of architecture ("Building-outside-Time"). Planning and building, which had always formed one fluid, imbricated process, were to be sharply divided, and the change that always came with time was to be excluded from architectural making.
