Dietmar Feichtinger Completes Seine-Spanning Foot Crossings in Mantes-la-Jolie, France (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“A road bridge takes the ground and pulls it over the river,” says Paris-based architect Dietmar Feichtinger. “A footbridge is very different—it lands delicately on the ground. It wants to be light, it wants to be transparent, it wants to be simple, it wants you to be able to read the structural forces.” The 64-year-old Austrian, who has lived in France since 1989, knows a thing or two about bridges, having worked on more than 20 of them over the course of his career. Indeed, he first found fame

Read excerpt
A central figure in California’s Light and Space movement, 83-year-old James Turrell is famed for his Skyspaces. At ARoS, the fine-arts museum in the Danish city of Aarhus, he has completed his 100th, in collaboration with local architect Schmidt Hammer Lassen. Programmed as part of an ambitious expansion drive that aims to grow annual visitor figures to 1 million, this Skyspace is by far his biggest.

Read excerpt
As in every prerevolutionary French city, the urban fabric of Toulouse, today capital of the Occitanie region, was dominated by ecclesiastical communities.

Closed by the revolutionary authorities in 1790, it took on a new role as a public art gallery in 1795, showing both confiscated pieces and work by members of the Toulouse Academy.

Around seven years ago, seeking to leave a permanent legacy, she contacted architect Patrick Bouchain, an old-hand maverick famed for collaborative and often rather arte povera projects such
Snapshot: ‘Clausura’ Traces the Silhouette of a Bygone Belgian Church with Steel Tubes (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Located outside Hasselt, in present-day Belgium, Herken rode Abbey was once the wealthiest Cistercian convent in Flanders. Founded in the late 12th century, it attracted the daughters of nobility and, despite a checkered history, survived essentially intact until the French Revolution. After the region’s annexation by France, religious houses were purged and Herkenrode sold to a pair of industrialists. The convent’s nadir arrived in 1826, when the abbey church, then serving as a factory, burned
