For many, Salvador Dali represents the Surrealist painter par excellence, one whose work explored his own dream life, hallucinations, and fetishes in the process of objectifying the irrational elements of the unconscious. In this rare and important volume, the painter expresses (in his inimitably eccentric fashion) his ideas of what painting should be, expounds on what is good and bad painting, offers opinions on the merits of Vermeer, Picasso, Cézanne, and other artists, and expresses his thoughts on the history of painting.<BR>Illustrated with the artist's own drawings, this volume is a fascinating mixture of serious artistic advice, lively personal anecdotes, and academic craftsmanship. It is, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, "in lay-out and clarity of design... a remarkable work of art in itself."

In the history of the European Communities, a declaration on European identity was adopted for the first time at the Copenhagen Summit in December 1973. Through this document, the heads of state and government set out a programmatic concept for further European integration, stronger internal cohesion and the emergence of a common foreign policy, in order to advance the unification process. After a short introduction, the book examines the background of the declaration, the role played by the founding member states, the states of the Northern enlargement (Denmark, Ireland and the United Kingdom), the Council of Europe, the European Council summit itself, and the European Court of Justice. The volume sheds light on what really lays behind the Copenhagen Declaration.

Die vierte Ausgabe der Reihe "Chapters" bringt architektonische Forschung und Praxis zusammen. Das belgische Architekturbüro 51N4E und der Lehrstuhl für Städtische Transformation der ETH Zürich, NEWROPE, zeigen, wie Infrastrukturprojekte Impulsgeber für eine neue Art der Stadtplanung sein können. Anhand von acht Projekten von 51N4E und vier Designperspektiven von NEWROPE untersucht die Publikation, wie jedes der Projekte den Raum strukturiert und gleichzeitig neue Nutzungen fördert. Infrastruktur wird so zum Ausgangspunkt für ein gemeinsames Nachdenken darüber, was wir als Gesellschaft schätzen und in was wir investieren wollen. In einer abschließenden Reflexion wird für einen Infrastrukturwandel im Städtebau plädiert: weg von Prestigeprojekten und großen Masterplänen, hin zu einer Designmethode, die bereits Existierendes respektiert, die Unvorhersehbarkeit des städtischen Lebens akzeptiert und Raum für zukünftige Veränderungen lässt.

Die zweite Ausgabe der vom belgischen Architekturbüro 51N4E initiierten Reihe Chapters beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, wie Entwurfsprozesse dialogisch gestaltet werden können. Damit ist nicht notwendigerweise ein partizipativer Designprozess gemeint. Vielmehr geht es um eine Praxis des Entwerfens, die einerseits neue Situationen erzeugt, aber auch anderen die Möglichkeit gibt, etwas hinzuzufügen, zu entfernen oder zu verändern. Vor allem erkennt Dialogisches Entwerfen an, dass Konflikt und Komplexität das Herzstück urbaner Transformation sind.In seinem ersten Teil untersucht Design in Dialogue die Arbeit des Brüsseler Architekturbüros 51N4E, des Antwerpener Büros für sozial- räumliche Innovation endeavour und des Baseler Büros für urbane Transformation Denkstatt. Alle drei Büros loten die Grenzen der archi- tektonischen Praxis aus und stellen das Selbstverständnis von Archi- tekten und Stadtgestaltern in Frage, denen es oft mehr um Autonomie und Monolog als um Offenheit und Dialog geht. Obwohl sich die drei Büros radikal unterscheiden, schätzen sie alle den Wert von Design im Dialog.Der zweite Teil der Publikation ver- anschaulicht anhand einer Vielzahl von europäischen Architekturbüros und -projekten, unter welchen Bedingungen dialogisches Entwerfen eine produktive Dynamik entfaltet. Die Autoren verstehen Design in Dialog nicht als eine neue Methodik, sondern als eine befreiende Entwurfspraxis des Teilens, Wertschätzens und Weiterentwickelns.
