[.en] Projects and Their Consequences offers a unique view of the intersections of the visionary, the speculative, and the practical work of architecture and its relationship to art and culture. Autobiographical, technical, prophetic, and meditative, Reiser + Umemoto's Projects and Their Consequences is a genre-blending monograph presenting thirty years of work by their firm, RUR Architecture. Projects and Their Consequences balances incisive interviews and essays with more than four hundred original drawings, collages, and paintings. Multiple, overlapping perspectives describe projects that vary widely in scope and approach : large-scale studies of infrastructure for the East River corridor and Hudson Yards areas in Manhattan and the Alishan Railway in Taiwan, as well as schemes for cultural institutions including the New Museum, Children's Museum of Pittsburgh, and University of Applied Arts Vienna. Carefully conceived small-scale projects are documented, such as an imaginative water garden and the Sagaponack House, and thought-provoking "textual projects" - narrative works that blur the boundaries of art and architecture, such as a meditation on language in the context of the Globe Theater.
