A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leafing through this 'manual' of poetic architecture is an adventure, an expedition in learning the poetry of art, of endless improvisation. This an unusual, fascinating book written for all who are eager to identify, expand and communicate their creative energies through poetry. Warlamis's paintings and drawings open a wide world of imagination and fantasy. He avoids abstract theory. But his recipes are not a universal remedy; they must be applied in combination with the reader's own intuition. He points out the danger of an academicism that has no life function, of an architecture that has become a hollow shell devoid of content. Warlamis' research and ouvre will be of interest to teachers, students and laymen and will stimulate a cross-disciplinary dialogue between theory and practice.
