W034779 | $49.95
Exhibition Catalog
Phillipe Rahm. Pavillon de l'Arsenal, Paris, 2020.
308 pp. Moderately illustrated (some col.). 23 x 15 cm. In French. Hardcover.
ISBN 9782354870584
The history of architecture and the city as we’ve known it since the second half of the twentieth century has more often than not been re-examined through the prisms of politics, society and culture, overlooking the physical, climatic and health grounds on which it is based, from city design to building forms. The exhibition offers three chronological itineraries in one: the untold history of architecture and cities grounded in natural, energy, or health causes; the development of construction materials; and the development of energies and lighting systems through full-scale objects. This new approach, which could be described as an objective one, brings various historical ages closer and forges unexpected links.
