Rustica (tapa blanda). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Sin retórica recoge el poso de veinte años de investigación de la pareja de arquitectos británicos Alison & Peter Smithson con el fin de ofrecer al lector una idea directa y sin artificios sin retórica , en definitiva de sus intereses y obsesiones: el nuevo… brutalismo, la cultura pop británica y el estado actual de la arquitectura, el papel de la publicidad y de los medios de comunicación en la arquitectura, su fascinación por la obra de Mies van der Rohe, el uso de la repetición o las arquitecturas griega y japonesa. Este libro fundamental tanto para entender la trayectoria de los arquitectos británicos como de la arquitectura contemporánea se presenta aquí traducido por primera vez al español y en una edición casi facsímil (casi, puesto que reproduce fotografías en color) que pretende llenar un injusto vacío de publicaciones de estos arquitectos. LIBRO.

8° Broschur. 219 S. Broschierter Einband, 19 x 14 cm, nur sehr geringe Gebrauchsspuren, annähernd neuwertig. Verlagstext: »Der Schwerpunkt unserer Aufmerksamkeit«, heißt es bei Alison und Peter Smithson, »hat sich verlagert: von Gebäuden als Objekten auf die Auswirkungen der Gebäude zur räumlichen Ausformulierung des Territorium…s. So wie der Wohnungsbau die wichtigste Aufgabe der Architekten der Klassischen Moderne war, sollte die räumliche Ausformulierung des Territoriums die wichtigste Aufgabe unserer Zeit sein. «Im Sinne dieser Forderung entwickelt »Italienische Gedanken - weitergedacht« die in dem 1996 erschienenen ersten Band untersuchte Beziehung zwischen Gebäuden und ihrer Umgebung, zwischen Architektur und natürlicher und gebauter Welt produktiv weiter: im Zeichen eines architektonischen Entwerfens, das Klarheit und Komplexität, Anschaulichkeit und Einfachheit in einen neuen Zusammenhang bringt.

Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. Until recently the ideas of Alison and Peter Smithson have been known mainly to those professionally involved in architecture and urban design. This is so because they have presented their ideas usually in project form, accompanied by elliptical texts designed to prevent the building up of… rigid thought patterns in the minds of those studying them.'Ordinariness and Light, ' by contrast, is an extended exploration of their theories and work over the past seventeen years, in which not only their aesthetic but also their political and emotional concerns are made plain. The book brings together a previously unpublished long text of 1952-53, 'Urban Re-identification,' and a sequence of later essays and statements. All this material has been revised for the present volume, and provided with a linking commentary.The general theme is 'the invention of an architecture structured by notions of association.' The authors argue that the form of the city and the town must correspond to the human needs of the present; looser knit than in the past, even the quite recent past; more open and changing. And for city and town to correspond to this pattern of society there must be better systems of physical communication, and new form-concepts through which society can recognize and realize its new self.The arguments, examples, and illustrations in the book show how a very small shift in our way of looking at the ordinary things that go to make up cities and towns could restore to them their rich classic connotations. Houses would once more feel like places of adventure, as well as security; roads would be made to give a sense of cohesion and connection, as well as of release. For the Smithsons, to sense an 'ordering' in things is to feel liberated and free to use them. 'Ordinariness and Light' will enable all who are exercised about the deterioration of urban life to share their dream of cities that can breathe. It may help, perhaps, to generate in society at large that kind of committed participation that their notion of 'ordering' implies. An extended exploration of the authors' theories and work over the past seventeen years, in which not only their aesthetic but also their political and emotional concerns are made plain. wrapped in complimentary Brodart dust jacket protector. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.
