Victor Papanek Poradie kníh (chronologicky)

Publikace Zelený imperativ (1983) designéra, pedagoga a teoretika designu Victora J. Papaneka je druhým autorovým textem, který vychází v Edici Katedra. V knize Design pro skutečný svět Papanek definoval své pojetí společensky odpovědné designérské praxe a nekompromisně se vymezil vůči převládajícímu přístupu k designu, úzce svázanému s komerční korporátní realitou a konzumním způsobem života. Zelený imperativ klade větší důraz na ekologii, šetrný design, recyklaci a opakované užívání designovaných objektů. Klimatická změna a zodpovědné pojetí designérské praxe jsou jedněmi ze současných společenských priorit, a Papanekův jasný, mnohdy instruktivní text je jedním ze stavebních kamenů kritického myšlení o formách a poslání práce designérů. Překlad z angličtiny Ivan Adamovič.

A fresh edition of the sustainable design pioneer Victor Papanek's classic and ever-relevant book.

„Victor Papanek: The Politics of Design“ offers a comprehensive overview of the work of the designer, author, and activist Victor J. Papanek. His main work, the instructive guide „Design for the Real World“ published in 1971, is as much in focus as his designs and his commitment to social minorities, the so-called Third World, and the considerate use of natural resources. This book documents countless photographs, artistic works and designs, objects, drawings, letters, and other materials, some of which are published here for the first time. Papanek’s close exchange with contemporaries such as Richard Buckminster Fuller, George Nelson, and Marshall McLuhan is also examined. Contemporary work by Tomás Saraceno, Catherine Sarah Young, Gabriel Ann Maher, Thomas Thwaites, and Forensic Architecture, as well as Flui Coletivo and Questtonó, among others, rounds off the publication and demonstrates that Papanek’s interpretation of design as a tool for social transformation is as relevant as ever and continues to shape debate on social design, critical design, and design thinking. With essays by Alison J. Clarke, Amelie Klein, Jan Boelen, Felicity Scott, Jamer Hunt, Cameron Tonkinwise, among other contributors.

Victor Papanek's classic study offers a blueprint for survival in the energy and resource deficient world of today, suggesting strategies for developing products that respond to human needs.
