New Commons for Europe captures the vitality and the doubts of a new generation of architects living at a key moment in the history of the European Union and questioning the role of the profession and the architect’s ability to produce projects and spaces for the common good with an alternative set of resources and profit structure. After the conference a series of interviews were conducted with participants in London, Berlin, Brussels, Paris, Lisbon, and Bucharest. The book chronicles both the event and the interviews, which have developed into an ongoing European conversation between architectural figures that takes a new reading of the boundaries of the discipline and its interactions with political, economic, and social factors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTexts: Flavien Menu, Holly Lewis – We Made That, Mathieu Delorme, Aurélien Delchet – Atelier Georges, Alex Axinte, Cristi Borca – Studio BaSAR, Anthony Engi Meacock – Assemble, Jack Self – REAL, Tiago Moita Saraiva – Ateliermob, Markus Bader – Raumlabor\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePaperback, 188 pp.\u003cbr\u003ePublished by Spector Books, 2018\u003cbr\u003e15 x 22 cm\u003cbr\u003eEnglish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Spector Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":15490925625431,"sku":"1999","price":44.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1295\/2055\/products\/0fb704a05ce284332704949a8845b1d5eb3b2904.jpg?v=1543254326"},{"product_id":"soundfairexhibitingmusic2007-2013","title":"Soundfair: Exhibiting Music 2007 - 2013","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow can one put music on exhibit in an art context?

Technical or conceptual nous are simply not enough on their own. Rather, it is the unspoken, the intuitive and the collaborative dynamic between photographer and subject – the creative bond, however fleeting – that breathes life into the image. Leading Sydney-based photographer Bec Parsons has made an international career off the back of her unique ability to connect. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePhotographed in the early Spring of 2012 in New York City, the images that populate her debut book Coney Island not only capture a young Julia Nobis amidst the idiosyncratic surrounds of the beachside Brooklyn neighbourhood from which the book takes its title, but burrow somewhere deeper into model photographer’s mutual disposition and spirit. Among these concise, intimate and playful portraits, images of lush blossoms circulate. The allegory is clear.

The same tangible connection to the subject that affords the photographic medium and process its singular charge – its requisite proximity and contact with its referent, and the direct inscription of light on celluloid or sensor – also presents its great anxiety. In a career stretching back to the 1990s, Melbourne artist Eliza Hutchison has worked to slice, shred, fold, mirror and sculpt photographic images, materials and surfaces to both activate and complicate the photograph’s chain of command. The images that echo throughout her long-awaited debut book Family Photos – many of which came out of a residency at the Cité des Arts in Paris – both embrace and shatter their collective title. Prised from the swamp of Hutchison and her family’s wider history, present and semiconscious, they ricochet between intense intimacy and collective significance, applying photography’s indexical potential to the most ephemeral and malleable of moments.

One series is inspired by illustrated self-defence manuals and Psychology and Resistance by the feminist psychologist Carol Gilligan. Piotrowska appropriates the formulaic step-by-step approach of the manuals but instead of showing two people in contact, she photographs the (re-) actions of one woman in conflict with an unknown, absent subject. While Gilligan argues in her book that teenage girls risk losing their voice in patriarchal societies, Piotrowska seeks to re-present their agency in corporeal form, and indicates – through the invisible opponent – the underlying pressures they have to confront. A second series reveals precarious shelters made out of furniture and blankets, situated in domestic spaces. Sculptural in form, these temporary refuges nod to the children’s game of making houses at home, as if domestic space would not provide enough protection. The constructions also reference the makeshift ‘homes’ of homeless people. In a third series, Piotrowska focuses on cages and comparable spaces created for humans, drawing parallels between the lives of certain communities and animals, and the environments in which they live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe book includes essays from \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSara De Chiara, Joanna Bednarek \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eand \u003c\/span\u003eDorota Masłowska.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e176 pp, Hardback with PVC jacket and black printed page edges\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished by MACK, 2021\u003cbr\u003e17 x 21.5cm\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEnglish\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MACK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39308230000727,"sku":"","price":99.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1295\/2055\/products\/cover_5a6ab38c-6624-4ba3-90f4-95ab2ddffae0.jpg?v=1622464692"},{"product_id":"the-design-plot-shelley-lasica","title":"The Design Plot - Shelley Lasica","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOver a career spanning more than three decades,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eShelley Lasica\u003c\/b\u003e’s practice has placed the creative and processional machinations of dance and choreography centre stage.

The seventy-one poems collected here might be regarded, as Charles Bernstein has written, as “sound” poems, being tethered not only to the literature of the Black Arts Movement but also to jazz culture and urban life in New York. Drawing as much from the visual arts and concrete poetry as from sound-based experimentation and music, Pritchard utilized the simple tools of spacing and typography to create syncopations, vibrations, and musical rhythms. What emerges is nothing less than a self-contained system of mimetic codes that challenge modernist modes of perception and representation. Formally innovative and anticipating what Michael Riffaterre would come to call the semiotics of “ungrammaticalities,” the book is a syntactical and visual experience in repetition, stutters, and structure. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBorn and based in New York City, Pritchard was trained in visual arts and art history at New York University and Columbia University.

Cowley created his own brand of peak-time party music known as Hi-NRG, also dubbed “The San Francisco Sound.” By 1981 Patrick had released a string of his own dance 12″ singles, such as “Menergy” and “Megatron Man”.

The title of the book, and the exhibition it accompanies at Frankfurt's Portikus, refers to a concept often used to describe abstract painting (the classic instance of which is the work of Jackson Pollock). Much of Sillman's oeuvre can be categorised as such, although her abstractions often suggest recognizable forms and figures. In the 24-canvas series Panorama, motifs seem to run continuously around the walls of the exhibition space, but in fact are repeated prints of the artist's drawings with painterly interventions. The materiality is lost through the superimposition of print and oil paint; what remains is pure colour and gesture. Also present here are stills from an animation developed by Sillman to be exhibited alongside Panorama and an insert made especially for the book by the artist.

In a rush to remain relevant, storeowners emblazon their windows and walls with anything that will grab attention: tessellations of quick-fading ads, floor-to-ceiling decals of fanned money or flowing hair, haphazard product displays, and desperate, hand-scrawled invitations. They repaint, renovate, rebrand, and rearrange, gestures which point to the desires and anxieties of people who are being left behind as our thumbs lead us into the new economy.

His mischievous works evoke fascinating visual effects by mixing design, art history and pop culture. His creations celebrate the poetry of failure and the beauty of the less than perfect, an accident by design. The artist stages reality in his own world, exposing everyday absurdities and toying with the boundaries set by traditional artistic practices. Three-dimensional works are constrained by the material they are made of, and for Bastien Aubry, it is most important to recognize the physical property of each material in order to experiment with visually exiting effects. To exaggerate, enlarge, stack, fill, crush… There is always an element of surprise and spontaneity present in his oeuvre.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e16 pp, softcover colour offset\u003cbr\u003ePublished by Nieves, 2021\u003cbr\u003e19.5 x 25.5 cm\u003cbr\u003eFirst Edition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nieves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39453827498071,"sku":"","price":29.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1295\/2055\/products\/1621323894_bastien.jpg-preview2.jpg?v=1635263479"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.highgatecontinental.com\/collections\/publications\/film.oembed","provider":"Highgate Continental","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
