A New World Trade Center pdf mobi txt 2024 电子版 下载

Book Description

"As they watched on television as airliners controlled by terrorists flew into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, the American and international public at large became suddenly aware of the symbolic, political, economic and social importance of architecture."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　-- Max Protetch

Architecture gained a new significance in the eyes of the world when New York's World Trade Center was brutally attacked on September 11, 2001, as a symbol of the freedom and commercial strength of the United States of America. Recognizing the public's new appreciation of the correlation between architecture and the culture that creates it, Max Protetch, a New York art gallery owner who is the world's preeminent dealer of architectural drawings and has represented some of architecture's finest minds, launched an artistic response to the attacks that would help New Yorkers regain their footing and envision a new future for the city.

By the end of September, as the debate began to stir over what would become of the devastated lower portion of Manhattan, Protetch had begun asking many of the world's top architects to contribute to one of the most important and provocative architecture and design shows in recent history. The result was a unique combination of proposals from a diverse group of architects that included sketches from the late Samuel Mockbee, a proposal for a multiuse, multicultural cathedral from Paolo Soleri, Daniel Libeskind's ideas for a memorial structure, and Zaha Hadid's vision for the future of high-rise architecture. A New World Trade Center is an extraordinary display of creativity in thought and design that considers the future of lower Manhattan from myriad perspectives -- serving at once as a powerful remembrance of lives lost and a catalyst to the debate on downtown Manhattan.

From Publishers Weekly

Many of these four dozen or so designs solicited by New York gallery owner Protetch may be fanciful rather than practical--from Acconci Studio's "building full of holes" ("preshot, pre-blown-out, preexploded") to Jakob + MacFarlane's "light and sensual" design of long, thin towers resembling fingers and symbolizing "peaceful aspiration"--but they bring a freedom of imagination whose need was surely demonstrated by the paucity of creativity shown in the half dozen designs for rebuilding the World Trade Center site that were unveiled recently.

• 黑夜检验星辰，飞行检验诗人

  当代不少写字人有个坏习惯：喜欢自称诗人。半真半假的自封，一边调戏着“诗人”在今天的处境和定义，一边又难免对那个头衔流露出觊觎和向往。

  仅极少数自称诗人的小说家，在大众心中赢得承认，如英年早逝的王小波，又如英年早逝的罗贝托·波拉尼奥。年轻时波拉尼奥的名片上只有两行字：“诗人，流浪汉”。然而在“晚年”的采访中，他承认年轻时写诗是因为那比写小说省力，他甚至承认了年轻时自命诗人更多地是想过诗人那样的生活。

  自遗作《2666》暴得大名，波拉尼奥死后变成超新星，加倍发光发热，新书出版速度竟比活人作者犹有过之。不过越新出版的一般反是越早期的作品。中文版《2666》问世4年后，有了中文版《遥远的星辰》。这应算波拉尼奥的第一部扛鼎之作（火车上勾搭到陪伴至生命尽头的情人，送的就是这本），堪与日后《荒野侦探》、《2666》两部巨著鼎足而立。

  《遥远的星辰》脱胎自他更早期的一部小说《美洲纳粹文学》，后者也拿了文学奖，却因当时他竟穷得装不起电话，主办方无法及时通知，遂与奖金和出版失之交臂。数年后波拉尼奥又得了个出版机会，谎称手头正有长篇小说，并在短短两周内赶写出这部《遥远的星辰》。

  当然实际上，波拉尼奥的全部小说都是“赶死线”的产物，提笔之初，便自知肝病，命不久矣。和时间赛跑当然需要一点技巧，读者常惊讶波拉尼奥小说横冲直撞的大胆，或匪夷所思的急转弯，这些被目为先锋/实验的东西，或许只是自然而然的结果。核心的难题和华彩在于，如果采用单刀直入没有矫饰的行文，如何把同等容量的素材（虽然他似乎从来不缺素材）拉扯成一个“长篇小说”卖钱呢？尤其在这本《遥远的星辰》中，波拉尼奥的处理，已近乎特技飞行。

  《遥远的星辰》故事本身就是讲一位智利空军的王牌飞行员，卡洛斯·维德尔，他同时也是一位“诗人”。飞行员+诗人，或令人想起《小王子》的作者圣-埃克苏佩里，不过这位维德尔却是皮诺切特的鹰犬，原为《美洲纳粹文学》里压轴的大恶棍。

  维德尔身上直接并置了波拉尼奥作品中的两组主题——如《2666》开头引用的《恶之花》名句——“恐怖的”现实和“无聊的”文学。维德尔用飞机喷气在天空中写诗，不啻为一种当代-行为艺术的勾当，难以定论究竟属于天才还是噱头。而他写下的诗句——大多是简短的判断句，却也同样难以置评，诸如：死亡是友谊／死亡是智利／死亡是责任/南极是智利……因为到头来，死亡和祖国这两个词，意义既无限丰富又最为单调。

  维德尔和“我”相遇在大学里的诗歌社团，而相对于诗歌价值的暧昧不清，谋杀毕竟是件真事情。维德尔残忍杀害许多左派女学生，弄成照片展邀请军界朋友围观，自曝其罪，自毁前程，就此失踪。小说到此，若是村上春树之流来写，可能就“聪明地”收工了，但对于波拉尼奥却刚刚开张。

  维德尔定下了主角-主题，连下去的不是情节线，而是主题的各种变奏，约等于Jazz中的即兴，人物被当成乐器玩solo。谁能想到波拉尼奥会突然把诗歌班的老师拉出来演一段（革命主题）？紧接着，意料之外又情理之中的是，波拉尼奥竟然又把这个这个诗歌班老师的对头，另一位老师，solo了一段（诗歌主题），再之后，“不禁想起”一位朋友无臂的诗人朋友（他化身为巴塞罗那残奥会的吉祥物）……读过的人活血不得不承认，爵士乐、特技飞行和诗，实在是一回事。

  维德尔（Wieder）的名字本身的含义又变奏了整整两页，维德尔本人也从杀人犯-飞机员-诗人，变奏为用粪便精夜之类涂抹古今名著的地下艺术家——还是说，他的主题从来都是“可笑的艺术摧毁者”？在波拉尼奥的小说里，一切诗人都失败了，然而一切试图摧毁诗歌的行为也都失败了，回望历史的黑夜，唯一闪耀的星辰，只有文字。
