@wordimagetext speaks with designer Jonathan Muecke on his “open objects,” which investigate color’s shape, texture’s scale and the possibility of eliminating surfaces entirely, for PIN—UP no. 32

“Why should one make an archive?” @rpbw_architects
Following tonight’s @adff screening of 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘈𝘳𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘷𝘦, a film by Francesca Molteni on Renzo Piano Building Workshop’s extensive professional archive, PIN–UP founder and creative director Felix Burrichter will lead a discussion about the culture of archiving in architecture in design. Why are archives important? What is their purpose? Who gets to have them? And who doesn’t?
Guests include art historian and board member of the Gio Ponti archive, Brian Kish (@briankishinc), and artist, writer, and curator Jarrett Earnest (@jarrettearnest).

PIN–UP 30 “Legacy” Issue
PIN–UP releases 30th issue, 15 years after its first issue hit newsstands in 2006. https://pinupmagazine.org/issues/pinup-magazine-30-legacy
Themed ‘Legacy’, PIN–UP’s Spring Summer 2021 issue features two covers: the first stars the legendary Frank O. Gehry, photographed by Buck Ellison days ahead of his 92nd birthday; the second features a cohort of new NY architects — eight emerging firms who are building future legacies with bold moves — photographed by Tanya and Zhenya Posternak, all wearing Bottega Veneta.
“In 2006, George W. Bush was president and mainstream architecture was a sober business for serious men. When the first issue of PIN–UP came out in October of that year, it hit different. The combination of Zaha Hadid meets Rick Owens’s post-coital bed meets phallic skyscraper prostheses was startling to many and the ‘architectural entertainment’ byline collided words and worlds in a way that, to the design establishment, seemed frivolous at best. PIN–UP employed ‘entertainment’ as a queering agent, something the architecture scene badly needed, while the vision it fostered was defiantly inclusive, an uninhibited space for a diversity of voices to empathetically coexist, all wrapped up in a rule- bending graphic package.”

Is Instagram changing the way we decorate our homes? 👀@Taylorescarabelli on vintage trends, design memes, and gatekeeping at the link in bio.
“Thanks to social media, collecting easily identifiable designer furniture, or replicas of it, is no longer a highbrow intellectual endeavor but an attention-seeking game that anyone can play...That’s why we see Mario Bellini’s bubbly Camaleonda sofa all over Instagram, and endless streams of teens lounging on knock-offs of Marcel Breuer’s Wassily chair on TikTok. In a hyper-visual world, the most relevant trends are those that stand out on a small screen.”
