Portraits III
Abraham Bosse, Frontispiece to Thomas Hobbes, The Leviathan (1651)
TERRITORY/POLITICS
Ce n’est ni la situation, ni la grandeur, ni la richesse des capitales qui causent leur prépondérance politique sur le reste de l’empire, mais la nature du gouvernement.
Alexis de Tocqueville in: L’Ancien Régime et la Révolution.
Portraits is a series of critical assessments on contemporary issues. Its specificity lies in the association of mutually enlightening, yet seemingly antagonist programs. Its method claims no historical loyalty, as sources and facts are being intentionally set up to serve a reducing purpose. Portraits evaluates contradictory encounters and stresses cross-fertilization as a key asset in the design process.
Portraits III postulates the history of political philosophy as a strategy for territorial planning.
