The seventh BMW Art Guide by Independent Collectors

This practical guide is a collaborative publication stemming from the partnership between BMW and Independent Collectors, the international online platform for collectors of contemporary art.

Digital Transformation of the Design, Construction and Management Processes of the Built Environment

This open access book focuses on the development of methods, interoperable and integrated ICT tools, and survey techniques for optimal management of the building process. The construction sector is facing an increasing demand for major innovations in terms of digital dematerialization and technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, advanced manufacturing, robotics, 3D printing, blockchain technologies and artificial intelligence. The demand for simplification and transparency in information management and for the rationalization and optimization of very fragmented and splintered processes is a key driver for digitization. The book describes the contribution of the ABC Department of the Polytechnic University of Milan (Politecnico di Milano) to R&D activities regarding methods and ICT tools for the interoperable management of the different phases of the building process, including design, construction, and management. Informative case studies complement the theoretical discussion. The book will be of interest to all stakeholders in the building process – owners, designers, constructors, and faculty managers – as well as the research sector.

  • Publisher: Unknown

At 81, the Italian designer and architect Gaetano Pesce is one of the world's greatest living innovators. Best known for his radical embrace of ordinary, unconventional materials of his time, he has constructed enormous pink buildings from foam, sofas that resemble jester hats, large-scale portraits from hand-poured resin and vases that bend and wobble. A pioneer in design, he's advocated for decades for the injection of human elements and error into mass produced design.This book is the first of its kind on Pesce, now in the twilight years of his career. It includes an interview with Pesce-come-essay by the critic Sophie Haigney, intimate portraits by Duane Michals, and four newly commissioned photographic series that take his work out into the world, allowing different image-makers to understand and connect with it for themselves.
