35.00 EUROS

“From extracts of texts by Gaston BACHELARD, Reyner BANHAM, Laurence COSSÉ, Gilles DELEUZE & Félix GUATTARI, Marguerite DURAS, Jean-Claude GALL, André GIDE, André GUILLERME, Jean-Yves JOUANNAIS, Maylis de KERANGAL, Pierre REVERDY, Marie RICHEUX, Robert SMITHSON, VITRUVE, Émile WITH and Marguerite YOURCENAR drawings and photographs by Julien HOURCADE Of Sand and Stones tells the story of the construction of a programme of three mixed-use buildings (cinema, cultural centre, community centre with black box theatre, 342 dwellings, shops and garden), built with a system of prefabricated load-bearing facades in natural colours in the Clichy-Batignolles district of Paris between 2013 and 2018.

This journey through the construction of the three buildings designed by architects TVK and Tolila+Gilliland offers an alternative perception of architecture and time, covering landscape and earth, geometry, craft and construction in a format that tells the story of the material from its extraction to its final form and of the cultural histories entangled in the project, through drawing, photography and literature.”
