"'Endless Sphere' sounds almost identical to 'Endless Fear.' Spheres are orbs and concavities of encounter for people and things. They should be considered spheres of activity, rather than enclosed spaces, which always arise when people inhabit a place. Sphere and thrill, room and crisis, self and fear meet in a state of phonetic undecidability.".

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The first publication of artist and architect Frederick Kiesler's epoch-spanning history of human architecture, largely unknown but still relevant.The first publication of artist and architect Frederick Kiesler's epoch-spanning history of human architecture, largely unknown but still relevant.Magic Architecture was the architect Frederick Kiesler's most ambitious book project, an epoch-spanning history of human housing from prehistory to the atomic era, submitted to editors after World War II but left unpublished. In its holistic view of habitation through the lens of anthropology, ecology, and the life sciences, Magic Architecture is one of the most extraordinary texts on architecture written in the twentieth century, now at last published in the twenty-first. Kiesler's exploration of the effects of modern technology in combination with the alternative epistemology of "magical" practices associated with cave drawings and the first artifacts of human industry reflects his profoundly interdisciplinary perspective on the development of art, architecture, and design.This critical edition preserves Kiesler's conception of the book as a neo-Vitruvian treatise divided into ten parts that narrate an alternative history and theory of architecture. Also included are more than seventy composite plate illustrations consisting of images cut and pasted from books and popular science journals, with elaborate captions, as well as Kiesler's own line drawings made specifically for this project. The editors have reassembled the book's text and illustrations from archival documents, supplementing them with notes that trace the copious development of the work. Introductory essays provide an interpretation of key themes and bibliographic sources, as well as a chronological context of the architect's research. Appendixes offer additional textual and visual material gathered by Kiesler for the project. The first publication of artist and architect Frederick Kiesler s epoch-spanning history of human architecture, largely unknown but still relevant.
