Log

Log Criticism and commentary on architecture and the contemporary city from around the world, in a literary format, since 2003.

Log is an independent journal on architecture and the contemporary city that presents criticism and commentary in a literary format designed to resist the seductive power of the image in media, while identifying and elaborating the central concerns of architectural thinking and production today. A carefully crafted compendium of essays, interviews, and brief "observations," Log provides an ongoing

international platform for the exchange of ideas, both bearing on and emanating from architecture and the city, among a curious audience of readers, including architects, designers, students, scholars, and artists. Published three times a year, general "open" issues are punctuated by occasional thematic issues on prescient topics. Founded in 2003, Log is a project of the Anyone Corporation, a non-profit organization in New York City devoted to advancing architectural thought and writing. http://www.anycorp.com/

The 184 pages of Log 62 present all new authors, including 15 South Americans in a special section guest edited by Brazilian architect and critic Jaime Solares Carmona. Called Far South, the section observes contemporary architecture and criticism in South America by a generation that Solares calls “equidistant from the modernist ethos of previous generations while also distancing itself from a more radical critical approach that leans toward an ‘anthropologization’ of architecture.”
Also in Log 62, Michael Speaks remembers cultural critic Fredric Jameson and his contribution to architecture theory; Fernanda Canales looks at the 19th- and early 20th-century Home Improvement Movement to challenge architecture to do more rather than less; Manuel Álvarez Diestro records the need for air conditioners around the world; and Lachlan Summers investigates the lifespan of concrete in the face of earthquakes in Mexico City.

Shop out collection on Abe Books. Hundreds of rare art and architecture books and periodicals were recently donated to the Anyone Corporation. This collection is now available on AbeBooks, with new titles added each week. The books range from the 19th to the 21st centuries and from the works and words of the modern architects to contemporary practitioners. The texts are in multiple languages and span various movements, from cubism to De Stijl, the Bauhaus to expressionism, postmodernism to deconstructivism.

Four Architectural Association Folios and three Archigram volumes are among the rarest offerings. There are multivolume tomes, such as an 1886 edition of John Ruskin’s The Stones of Venice, and bound volumes of periodicals including one of Architectural Record in 1910. Periodicals include AD, Artforum, Rassegna, Casabella, Domus, AV Monographs, and El Croquis, spanning from the 1950s to the early 2000s. The collection also includes exhibition catalogs and monographs on artists and architects such as Karl Lagerfeld, Sol Lewitt, Le Corbusier, Peter Eisenman, Toyo Ito, Kazuyo Sejima, and Louis Sullivan.

All proceeds support the programs of the Anyone Corporation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in New York.
