NEWSLETTER 45 / OCTOBER 2008
This month´s newsletter is extra long, because our schedule is jam-packed. Go ahead and make that wish list for the festive season; the new 010 catalogue is here. And we have plenty of new books to announce, not to mention our special events, where you´re welcome to stop by.

NEW: CATALOGUE
Once again, the time has come for a brand new edition. If you´re itching to get your hands on a terrific yellow 010 catalogue, e-mail us at rowena@010.nl. Let us know if you would like additional copies for colleagues, students, visitors, clients, friends and family. And meanwhile, check out our new catalogue online!

The first responses:
- ´Tasteful, high-quality, fresh, and contemporary, and all that without being 'trendy'.´
- ´Great new catalogue!!!´

ON TV: EXACTITUDES
What´s a white-shoe remark? Should the Dutch television producer and former Labour politician Felix Rottenberg have his own series? Viewers found out the answers last week on the talk show De wereld draait door. Ari Versluis and Ellie Uyttenbroek, who have been working on their series Exactitudes for years, were guests on the programme, where they talked about their motivations and working method. Matthijs van Nieuwkerk, one of the show´s hosts, is an Exactitude in his own right; see page 88 of the third (!) edition of this 010 book.

To view the programme of Thursday October 16 2008 online (in Dutch only), visit dwdd.nl.

STOP BY: THE ARCHITECTEN VAKDAGEN
We´d love it if you stopped by at the Architecten Vakdagen (a two-day event for the architectural profession). You can find us in the Green Library (stand 4.90), along with ArchiNed, dax, and Bouwen met Staal. 010 Publishers will be presenting the Dutch première of Superuse, the movie, based on the book of the same name by 2012 Architecten, with narration by Brad Pitt! Of course, you can also just read or buy one of our books.
We´d like to draw particular attention to the furnishings, because the Green Library is not only exceptionally lovely, but also very sustainably designed. Our thanks to Buro Marsille, which takes pleasure in Superusing. Want to find out more? Click here for more information.

Trade fair Architecten Vakdagen 2008: Sustainability, Van Nelle Ontwerpfabriek, Van Nelleweg 1, Rotterdam, Wednesday 5 and Thursday 6 November 2008, 10.00-17.00. Free admission: register at architectenvakdagen.nl, or e-mail us to request a VIP invitation: 010@010.nl..

You can also attend the (non-free) Sustainable Architecture Forum 2008, a high-level conference with Minister Jacqueline Kramer, William McDonough (you know, the cradle-to-cradle guy), Ben van Berkel, Bjarne Mastenbroek, and lots of other VIPs with ideas about sustainability.

NEW: STERRENSTOF
By the end of the nineteenth century Berlage and Cuypers had become a hype, writes Auke van der Woud, a universally respected author and a professor of the history of architecture and urban development. And because that hype was swallowed uncritically for the next hundred years, today your image of nineteenth-century architecture is incomplete, distorted, and negative. Van der Woud makes a convincing case that these two supposed fathers of modern architecture in fact had their backs to the future.
