Fluid Totality presents the avant-garde architectural visions of one of the most innovative academic institutions of our time—Studio Hadid at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. The studio founded by Zaha Hadid 15 years ago has meanwhile developed into a globally renowned think tank. The book analyzes these developments in the context of a comprehensive process of digitization and the resulting global changes in our habitats. On the basis of theoretical and analytical essays by influential contemporary architectural theorists and critics, as well as numerous articles and statements by renowned architects and others who have been involved during the history of the studio, this volume presents the result of fifteen years of pioneering work in an international context; the particular focus being the projects of the last five years.

Zaha Hadid (*1950 in Baghdad), recipient of the Pritzker Architecture Prize, designed and curated a groundbreaking exhibition at Zurich's Galerie Gmurzynska, comparing works of the Russian avant-garde with those of Zaha Hadid Architects. A fierce explosion of Russian works tore through the contemporary works by the architect in a dynamic black and white design. Created specifically for the venue, the projection of a two-dimensional drawing onto a three dimensional space transformed the gallery into a spatial painting in which the threshold of the picture plane expanded and could be entered. Zaha Hadid translated the warped and weightless space of Russian avant-garde painting and sculpture by Kazimir Malevich, El Lissitzky, and Alexander Rodchenko into her very own architectural language.

Die Pritzker-Preisträgerin Zaha Hadid (* 1950 in Bagdad) entwarf und kuratierte eine bahnbrechende Ausstellung in der Galerie Gmurzynska in Zürich, die Werke der russischen Avantgarde denen von Zaha Hadid Architects gegenüberstellte. Eine laute Explosion russischer Werke durchbrach dort in einer dynamischen Gestaltung in Schwarz und Weiß die zeitgenössischen Arbeiten der Architektin. Als raumspezifisches Kunstwerk war die Ausstellungsgestaltung die Projektion einer zweidimensionalen Zeichnung auf einen dreidimensionalen Raum. Die Galerie wurde dabei zu einem räumlichen Gemälde, in dem die Begrenzungen der Bildebene überschritten und betreten werden konnten. Zaha Hadid übersetzte den gekrümmten und schwerelosen Raum der russischen Avantgardemalerei und -bildhauerei von Kasimir Malewitsch, El Lissitzky und Alexander Rodtschenko in eine ganz eigene Architektursprache.

Building the future now.  The iconic work of a singular architect   Zaha Hadid is a wildly controversial architect, who for many years built almost nothing, despite her designs winning prizes and critical acclaim. Some even said her work was unbuildable. Yet over the past decade she has completed numerous structures including the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati (which the New York Times called ’’the most important new building in America since the Cold War’’), the Phaeno Science Center in Wolfsburg, Germany,and the Central Building of the new BMW Assembly Plant in Leipzig. Today, Hadid is firmly established among the élite of world architecture, her audacious and futuristic designs having catapulted her to international fame. Born in Baghdad and educated in London, where her practice is based, Hadid has designed radical architecture for over 30 years and is now the subject of this massive TASCHEN monograph. Covering her complete works to date, and all of her recent work from Dubai to Guangzhou, this XL tome demonstrates the progression of Hadid’s career—including not only buildings but also furniture and interior designs—with in-depth texts, spectacular photos, and her own drawings. Also included is a special section with translucent vellum paper allowing multiple layers of designs to be viewed at once or separately.
