Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. El Tyrannus melancholicus, bichofué o sirirí es un pequeño pájaro conocido por su carácter incisivo, que picotea a sus víctimas con la insistencia desesperante de un dedo punzando el hombro. Como un padre en la mente de un hijo. Podríamos decir que esta es una novela sobre el padre, con…el peligro de reducir todo su universo a una temática que en realidad es apenas el punto de partida. Incluso la enumeración de los asuntos que refiere (la imposibilidad del amor, la tauromaquia como metáfora de la vida, el poder y la herida de la familia y la tradición, el deseo como desesperada reivindicación de la existencia, el arte como sucedáneo de la comunicación imposible) no alcanzaría para dar cuenta de ella porque no se trata de una novela fundada en la trama (que la tiene y muy intensa) sino de una obra de atmósfera, cuya fuerza y particularidad radica en la sutileza espiritual que orbita alrededor, antes, sobre y debajo de las cosas que pasan. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardcover. Condition: New. For Colombian architect Simon Velez (born 1949), botany has been inextricable from architecture. His work has been significantly determined by his country's tropical resources, in particular its lush vegetation and abundance of guadua bamboo--a common species throughout the valleys of Colombia. Working… in close collaboration with the engineer-constructor Marcello Villegas, Velez has devised bamboo buildings that are extraordinary not only in appearance but also in their structural simplicity, and in their suitability for scenarios in which construction tools and resources are minimal. Velez has so successfully popularized guadua bamboo that today even his wealthiest clients are commissioning luxury residences in this material formerly associated with peasant dwellings. He has also successfully persuaded numerous public administrations, town councils and businesses concerned about the environmental impact of their activities to adopt and promote guadua bamboo; he has designed bamboo buildings in Germany, France, the United States, Brazil, Mexico, China, Jamaica, Colombia, Panama, Ecuador and India. In this monograph, illustrated throughout by Deidi von Schaewen's photographs, author Pierre Frey guides us through a range of works by Velez, examining his construction methods--in bamboo, steel and wood--as exemplifying a new kind of vernacular architecture.

Condition: Usado. Dust Jacket Condition: Rústica. 2ª. Pág./pages:297 400 gramos/grams Idioma/Language:Castellano Dos cuerpos sin vida, un hombre y una mujer, son hallados en un apartamento de El Poblado, en Medellín. Lo que en un inicio parece ser un asesinato común, esconde una intriga siniestra. El detective Ricardo Saba se ha…ce cargo del caso y pronto descubre que los familiares tienen un sospechoso: Juan Camilo Mejía, el Milicio, miembro de la familia más poderosa de la ciudad y amigo de infancia de una de las víctimas. Que el Milicio sea el principal implicado pondrá al descubierto una trama de hechos inesperados. Para matar a un amigo nos revela de manera intensa y perturbadora cómo unos jóvenes de la élite se apropian de las costumbres más sangrientas del narcotráfico. Con el ritmo de las mejores novelas de suspenso, esta historia evidencia el desgaste moral que corroe a toda una sociedad y cómo en una ciudad de más de cuatro mil homicidios al año la voz de un detective se convierte en la única conciencia que recorre los entresijos de las capas más sórdidas de esta Colombia de ficción. 17 x 22 x 2.

Gr.8°, 209 S., zahlr. Abb., Kart., Widmung a. Vors., tadell. Sprache engl./franz.- Simon Velez was born in Manizales, Colombia, in 1949, and began his career forty years ago. Velez is renowned for his joinery systems that brilliantly utilize bamboo as a permanent structural element in both residential and commercial structures.…For four consecutive years he has been invited by the Vitra Design Museum and the George Pompidou Centre to conduct workshops in France in which structures of bamboo-guadua were built as an instructive exercise. In this monograph, illustrated by Deidi von Schaewen's photographs, Pierre Frey offers us a rare insight into the works of this architect. Throughout the book, texts and images introduce us to a panorama of constructions as well as to the architect's idiosyncratic construction techniques, which are part of a vernacular architecture that the author considers as `symptomatic of the state of the world and societies populating it'. Whether he is working with concrete, steel or other forms of wood, he works in the same way. He energetically defends his status as bambousero and is skilled at distinguishing materials and assigning them functions in accordance with their performances. He has persuaded his richest clients to build luxury residences from the material most used by simple peasants. He has also managed to convince many large public administrations, town council or businesses concerned about the environmental impact of their activities to adopt and promote guadua bamboo. Simon Velez was born in Manizales, Colombia, in 1949, and began his career forty years ago. Velez is renowned for his joinery systems that brilliantly utilize bamboo as a permanent structural element in both residential and commercial structures.
