Issue 10 of the Cornell Journal of Architecture will collect a spectrum of specters from the phenomenal to the digital, and question the role and the possibilities of the spirit in architecture today.In distilling, the small amount of alcohol evaporated during the aging process is known as the angels share. at is, while lost to us, the alcohol does not cease to exist, but instead is given to or taken by the angels.Architectures own angels sharethe notion of an absent and intangible otherhas too been personi ed. From Genius Loci to Zeitgeist, the gure of the spirit is perhaps the most fundamental component of architecture, even before walls or columns. Whether phenomenal or conceptual, without this ickering spirit, one might say, there is no architecture. As technology enables the virtual realm to be inhabited in more everyday ways, the notion of another kind of spirit becomes more present yet more blurred. e digital, as architectures alternate and now ickering specter, skirmishes with architectures existing ghosts.

A lo largo de su breve vida, el artista austriaco Egon Schiele (1890-1918) dejó un turbulento y ardiente rastro expresionista. Fue un niño prodigio, un joven rebelde y un provocador empedernido que causó un gran revuelo entre el establishment artístico con su erotismo explícito de líneas retorcidas y cuerpos distorsionados. Aun hoy continúa sorprendiendo con sus autorretratos impávidos y sus sujetos desnudos. En este extenso libro XXL, examinamos el catálogo completo de sus pinturas entre 1909 y 1918. Las cerca de 600 obras incluidas muestran como el artista se deleitaba con la conmoción y la libertad estilística, y abandonó la figuración clásica por una fisicalidad exagerada y distorsionada que plasmaba la verdad sexual y emocional. Sus sujetos resultan alargados, angulares y desfigurados. Con costillas que sobresalen, extremidades contorsionadas y piel enfermiza, el cuerpo se convierte en el foco de la angustia. El único alivio temporal de Schiele es la promesa de sexo. Schiele dejó al descubierto los genitales como ningún otro artista de principios del siglo XX y fue el autor tanto de algunas de las representaciones de vaginas más francas de la historia del arte occidental como de escenas de masturbaciones y sexo lésbico. Estas deslumbrantes obras, más de 200 pinturas y 150 dibujos y acuarelas muchas de las cuales han sido fotografiadas nuevamente, se presentan junto a datos biográficos, textos de expertos, así como escritos y poemas del propio Schiele. Ofrecen un acceso íntimo a las ideas tras su obra y a su extraordinaria influencia en incontables maestros del siglo XX, desde Francis Bacon y Otto Muehl hasta Julian Schnabel, David Bowie y Tracey Emin. "Después de mi muerte, antes o después, la gente seguramente me elogiará y admirará mi arte". — Egon Schiele, en su lecho de muerte, el 31 de octubre de 1918.
