Bruno Reichlin ranks among the most eminent architectural theorists of our time. His writing and his work as a designing architect are marked by a deep understanding of how signs and symbols manifest themselves in buildings, as well as a broad frame of references—ranging from literature and film to visual art.This second volume of Bruno Reichlin’s collected writings brings together 10 pieces that address fundamental themes of 20th-century architecture. In contextualising designs historically and examining them from social, technical, and cultural perspectives, Reichlin always directs his analytical gaze toward the work itself. Function, tectonics, and space as key concepts of architectural practice and debate are thus defined, broken down, and examined through examples by major figures of modern architecture, such as Alberto Sartoris, Robert Mallet-Stevens, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Frederick Kiesler, Max Bill, the Italian group BBPR, and Carlo Mollino.Text in French.

Bruno Reichlin ranks among the world's most distinguished architectural theorists. His occupation with protagonists of 20th-century architecture - such as Eileen Gray, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Philip Johnson and, above all, Le Corbusier - and their work is guided by a method that looks at the characteristics of a building as well as at its theoretical foundations. Reichlin's writings and his own built work as a practicing architect is marked by a deep understanding for how buildings materialise signs and symbols and by a referential framework that includes also literature, film and visual art.This book collects Reichlin's 13 essays on Le Corbusier, written over the period of four decades. Taking as examples the villas La Roche, Mandrot, and Savoye; Harvard University's Carpenter Center for Visual Arts; the Petite Maison on Lake Geneva; and the project for a hospital in Venice, he explores aspects of Le Corbusier's creativity to reveal underlying principles and their manifestation in the realised buildings. Rich archival materials as well as analytical plans and diagrams round out the volume.Text in French.

Through more than 200 works, the representation and pictorial meaning of the window in the Western Art Since the Renaissance, the window has been both a metaphor and an essential conceptual tool in Western painting. A Window on the World seeks to thoroughly analyze the gradual changes which have occurred in the representation and pictorial meaning of the window, in particular in the course of the twentieth century. It explores the radical change in perspective whereby artists developed and offered us a “global vision”, a formal perception freed from the need to imitate the objective world. The catalogue is structured into four main sections: Historical introduction, Seeing through, Grids, From the Window to the Screen. These sections include specific analysis consecrated to artists who have chosen the window as the privileged means of their artistic research or to recurrent themes such as the fascinating relationship between window and still life.
