Rybczynski Witold: The Driving Machine

The Driving Machine

A Design History of the Car

Liquid Reflections

A nuanced and personal look at the Latino art world in New York from the 1970s to the new millennium &nbsp; In this deft interweaving of autobiography with the story of Latino art’s place in the flourishing New York art scene, Edward J. Sullivan calls attention to the prominent influence of Latin American artists from the 1970s until today. Recounting his own journey from student and curator to one of the field’s most celebrated scholars, Sullivan gives readers an insider’s look at a time when Latino art went from the margins to the spotlight and the discipline of Latin American art emerged. Beginning in the wake of the Black Power, gay liberation, and second wave feminism movements, Latino artists exhibited their work everywhere from alternative art spaces to major museums and forged a community and a collective identity. As Latin American and Latino artists navigated crises from AIDS to 9/11, they established their art forms as central to academic study and made New York’s institutions, museums, and galleries take it more seriously. &nbsp; Sullivan offers his readers an intimate view of the people, places, and events that populated the world of Latino art in New York as he showcases Latin American art from ancient to modern times. Rufino Tamayo, Carmen Herrera, Pepón Osorio, Cecilia Vicuña, and Juan Sánchez are among the many personalities who populated the scene. The result is a compelling and often surprising tale of cultural, personal, and institutional activity, and, at times, the intrigues that result from their collaborations.

Stars, Stripes &amp; Speed: America's Formula 1 Story is a bold and visually striking celebration of the United States' evolving role in the world's most glamorous motorsport. From early flashes of promise to today's cultural and commercial prominence, Roger Smith charts America's unique journey in Formula 1 -- a story decades in the making and still gaining speed. Across stunning visuals, sharp commentary, and exclusive infographics, author Roger Smith explores how the U.S. transitioned from an uncertain participant to a powerful player reshaping the sport's modern identity. From Watkins Glen and Long Beach to Miami and Las Vegas, the book traces the circuits, personalities, and pivotal moments that defined America's stop-start relationship with F1 -- and its dramatic resurgence under Liberty Media's stewardship. Inside, you'll find chapters dedicated to groundbreaking drivers like Phil Hill and Mario Andretti, influential teams and sponsors, media revolutions from ESPN to Netflix, and the growing spectacle of U.S.-based races. Timelines and data-led graphics bring key milestones to life, from rising attendance and viewership to the expanding fanbase drawn in by Drive to Survive. Whether you're a new recruit to the grid or a lifelong motorsport devotee, Stars, Stripes &amp; Speed is a timely and essential retrospective -- not just of America's place in Formula 1, but of its accelerating influence on what the sport has become. Includes material adapted and updated from Formula 1 All the Races 2016-2024: Liberty Media's Makeover.

Can qualitative ideas of place be adequately encompassed by the quantitative methods of digital and parametric design? This wide-ranging and multi-faceted book explores how designers and architects capture the deeper qualities of place though their practice. It provides a rigorous exploration of the nature of place and its role in design in parallel with a detailed analysis of the nature of parametricism. Parametric design aims to encompass all design criteria and values relating to how a building might be experienced by using algorithmic processes and computational technology. By inputting particular parameters, all elements could be reflected in the resulting design. Drawing on ideas and approaches from diverse, disciplinary perspectives, essays in this book argue for greater attentiveness to place in contemporary design practice, and consider the potential of parametric techniques to enhance the engagement with place in design contexts. Considering place beyond the designer's touch, chapters explore other creative disciplines such as literature, art and music, seeking commonalities across the realm of imaginative endeavour in the creation of a tangible sense of place, environment and experience. Authors also discuss notions of atmosphere and interiority, and consider the potential to extend beyond the bounded internality of architectural spaces and examine interiority through ecological systems, identity and urbanism. The book also explores ideas of home-making through various narrative, spatial, material and digital forms and the possibilities of parametric methods. By decentring existing anthropocentric understandings of place that privilege human perspectives, authors also consider other living perspectives and how design can support more-than-human places of the future.

An expansive consideration of the creative output of a unique twentieth-century master that brings a fresh perspective to his enigmatic and enduring work &nbsp; M. C. Escher (1898–1972) was born in the Netherlands and is known internationally for his self-described “mental images” that connect to mathematics and various branches of science. Considered a one-man art movement, he remained outside of the art establishment and is treasured today for his mind-bending works. His imagery explores the relationships between art and science, order and disorder, and logic and irrationality, and presents complex orchestrations of multidimensional alternate realities. &nbsp; Drawing from the Michael S. Sachs collection—the most extensive Escher holdings in the world—this overview of the artist’s work features more than five hundred objects, including prints, drawings, watercolors, printed fabrics, constructed objects, wood and linoleum blocks, lithographic stones, sketchbooks, and the artist’s working tools. Offering new insights into Escher’s iconic and idiosyncratic work, scholarly essays discuss the artist’s background and creative practice, examine the mathematical underpinnings of his use of geometric models, and ponder the ways his meticulously crafted images are filled with the element of wonder. &nbsp; Distributed for the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston
