Ancient Ireland: Exploring Irish Historic Monuments

Tarquin Blake, Fiona Reilly

Taschenbuch

Carrowkeel Passage Tomb in Sligo is an extensive Neolithic passage tomb undisturbed since its excavation in 1911. Robert Praeger, one of the excavators, described being one of the first to enter the tomb: ' I lit three candles and stood awhile, to let my eyes accustom themselves to the dim light. There was everything, just as the last man had left it, three to four thousand years before. ' On an isolated hillside, the tomb is in almost the same undisturbed condition today. Ireland is rich in such monuments. Tarquin Blake and Fiona Reilly explore and document over 140 historic sites across the thirty-two counties. These range from megalithic tombs and round towers to monasteries and castles, as well as the more recent Martello towers and windmills. An engrossing catalogue of remarkable heritage sites is revealed. Each site, from Brian Boru's Fort in County Clare to Moyne Friary in County Mayo, has an intriguing past and is illustrated with Blake's trademark photographs.

The TWA Terminal: The Building Block Series

Ezra Stoller

Gebundene Ausgabe

96pages. 18, 3x13, 7x1, 8cm. Relié. Eero Saarinen's T W A Terminal is another of his inspired essays in sweepingly curved building forms, this time celebrating flight. Paradoxically, while the terminal's layout and equipment were technically advanced and carefully thought-out, its form was arbitrarily sculptural rather than structurally rational. The explosive growth of passenger traffic overloaded the capacity of a building whose form defied expansion. Today, the T W A Terminal can be seen as a monument to a simpler, more intimate, and more gracious era of commercial flight. The terminal is just one of the modernist icons that preeminent architectural photographer Ezra Stoller documented in a career that spanned more than half a century. Now retired, Stoller has been reassembling his work for permanent (rather than periodical) publication. The T W A Terminal is one of a series published by Princeton Architectural Press that presents individual buildings in depth in a small-size volume. The photographs are not only stunning, they have particular documentary value in that Stoller shot them when the buildings were new-in this case, 37 years ago. The series has been designed for relative affordability, and its subjects are well chosen. Each volume includes a very brief preface by Stoller setting out his relationship to the building and a fairly short critical, historical, analytical essay. Buttressed by about a dozen endnotes, the essays occupy a middle ground between informal and scholarly writing. They are followed by 50 to 60 duotone photos and a few plan drawings. This is an expert look at an extraordinary building and well worth readers' serious attention. -John Pastier

Hybrid Modernism.: Movie Theatres in South India

Haubitz + Zoche

Gebundene Ausgabe

Movie Theatres in South India
Gebundenes Buch
In Südindien wurden in den 1950er bis 1970er Jahren sowohl in den Metropolen als auch ländlichen Gegenden zahlreiche
Kinosäle gebaut. Ihre Architektur basiert auf einer ungewöhnlichen Mischung aus westlichen Einflüssen und lokalen Baustilen. Die kulissenhaften, stark farbigen Fassaden bilden einen Vorgeschmack auf das Kinoerlebnis im Saal, in dem
sich extravagante Formen und Verzierungen fortsetzen und den Zuschauer bereits vor Filmbeginn auf die cineastische Welt einstimmen. Man kann diese Architektursprache als eine Art hybride Moderne bezeichnen.
Viele dieser Kinogebäude sind noch im Originalzustand erhalten. Der Umbau zu Multiplexsälen hat allerdings in den Metropolen bereits begonnen. Die Aufnahmen von Haubitz+ Zoche aus den Jahren 2010 -2013 dokumentieren ein Stück Kinokultur, das in Europa und den U S A zum Großteil schon verschwunden ist und auch in Indien immer mehr von kommerziellen Interessen verdrängt wird. Die Publikation wird durch den Kunstfonds Bonn gefördert.
