Chronograms of Architecture - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Based on Charles Jencks’s famous work, Chronograms of Architecture shows eight diagrams by eight teams of contemporary architects, researchers, and graphic designers that respond to the historical moment we live in today, revealing critical and urgent ways of seeing, understanding, and working in the architectural culture of the present. Commissioned by the Jencks Foundation and e-flux Architecture, the first six diagrams bring up questions relating to techno-optimism and techno-bureaucracy, feminist spatial practice and racial disparity, and the ecological implications and productive conditions of architecture. Of the last two―commissioned in conjunction with the exhibition presenting the project at CIVA in Brussels―one plots the history and influences of circular building strategies, while the other maps the definition of the discipline through chronograms themselves.
