Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Architects have been reformulating the experience of the museum and art itself, transforming the museums definition: The Louvre Abu Dhabi as a replica of a museum-city, inspired by Paris; the Guggenheim Museum and the Centre Pompidou as drive-through museums, shaped in an age when the car is protagonist; the new wing of the American Museum of Natural History in New York reimagines the institution with organic forms, as a bridge over the philosophical divide between culture and nature; the Hangzhou National Archives of Publications and Culture is built as an imitation of an art piece, to be an immersive experience of history and culture; the upcoming Cartier Foundation in front of the Louvre in Paris with its mobile giant platforms expresses the needs for dynamic architecture to be the site of the invention of culture. Through this analysis, the museum of the twenty first century emerges as the most important site of experimentation for architecture and art. The essential role of the museum as an enabler of a different kind of encyclopedia, as a necessary place in our cities in its potential to call into question the dichotomy between the urban and the wild, or again as withholding a democratization potential in including new forms of technology as forms of knowledge and culture is catalyzed through architecture. Only through the museum we can understand what art is and what its growing role in our future urban environment might be. Architects rethink and reinterpret one of the most important and innovative typologies of recent decades: the museum. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Architects rethink and reinterpret one of the most important and innovative typologies of recent decades: the museum.Museums are flourishing across the globe: in recent decades, no other architectural form has witnessed such remarkable growth and diversification. In an era when the digital revolution enables us to preserve our shared memory and artistic heritage without the constraints of physical space, this phenomenon might seem like an unnecessary indulgence.Yet, by examining new icons and rereading historical examples, Architecture for Culture shows why museums remain essential. They serve as the repositories for the encyclopedia of 21st-century knowledge, help make our cities legible and ensure that art remains a vibrant presence in the spaces where we live. The museum is revealed as a venue where architecture refines its discourse on method, identity, and urban context; it is also a dynamic laboratory for the continuous development of a new cultural policy-one that must address itself to a planetary audience.…
