This catalogue was published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name at Generali Foundation, Vienna, 19 June through 20 September, 2009. Buildings emerge and decay. In contrast to the other arts, architecture and urban planning have a special relationship to nature: they must confront its forces directly. This precarious relationship to nature, whereby their own disappearance must necessarily be taken into account, can be a theme for art.
