LAS PELIS QUE MÁS ME HAN GUSTADO EN 2011
1 – Darren ARONOFSKY – Black Swan
Es difícil resumirla en dos frases. Para mí es una película perfecta, que no decae en todo el metraje, con interpretaciones gloriosas y una dirección de arte apabullante. La competitividad, las frustraciones de padres volcadas en sus hijos, el sacrificio y la excelencia no siempre garantizada. La vida para hacer arte, la técnica para hacer arte y finalmente: el...

DOSHI LEVIEN - DAS HAUS AT IMM COLOGNE 2012
“It started with a conversation about how you define the home and the vision came together, drawing on a fragmented collage of memories, real and imagined. This is our dream of the perfect home, uniting very plural points of view. This is not a singular, purist approach; we wanted to keep very open to different ideas.”
Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien

IRVING PENN & ISSEY MIYAKE: VISSUAL DIALOGUE
“Over 13 years, from 1987 through the Autumn/Winter Collection of 1999, Irving Penn photographed the ISSEY MIYAKE line’s biennial collections. Miyake never attended the photo sessions but instead chose to entrust the vision of his clothes entirely to Penn. The unusual decision to offer Penn complete freedom gave rise to an incredible “visual dialogue” between the two...

AD - RADICAL POST-MODERNISM
“The issue marks the resurgence of a critical architecture that engages in a far-reaching way with issues of taste, space, character and ornament. Bridging high and low cultures.”

“Drawing a spiral ramp in planometric oblique projection by hand is a very difficult task and requires plotting of a number of points in space. Bearing in mind that the radii of the outer ramp are constantly changing within the geometry of a frustum, this ramp was drawn with a degree of precision that would have required exceptional skill and patience. Interestingly, the digital model also...

NENDO - BAMBOO-STEEL CHAIR
With their design, nendo researched taiwan’s traditional bamboo handicrafts and furniture, applying these methods to a more modern material (tubular steel pipes).
Their choice to use the metal over bamboo is to display how these techniques can be easily mass-produced with a certain level of quality in a contemporary context.
Bamboo handicraft techniques were used in the chair’s...

PETER ZUMTHOR - SERPENTINE GALLERY PAVILION 2011...
Centered around a garden, the design is intended to serve as a contemplative room. Acting as a stage-like container, the pavilion uses the elements of blackness and shadow to abstract the internal space from the noise and distraction of the city.
Zumthor comments that “the design aims to help its audience take the time to relax, to observe and then, perhaps, start to talk again, maybe not....

Crítica y público están absolutamente rendidos a este nuevo hito en la trayectoria del director; a la interpretación de Nalie Portman en lo que parece ser “el papel de su vida” y que a la vez tiene absolutamente subyugada a todas las publicaciones de papel satén...
