Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What turns a random space into a place What inscribes history into it, or lends it significance These questions occupy the installation artist Sondra Perry in her current piece, A Terrible Thing, for the Museum of Contemporary Art in Cleveland. On Euclid Street in the heart of Cleveland, Perry carries out a kind of archaeological study of the street's history, using video, pictures found online, and digital methods of representation. The infrastructure of the race representation as well as the architectural structure and its gender-political effect in everyday function, the finished complex, and the work done to erect it are all related to each other for the purpose of dealing with issues of identity-of a city, a society, and of individuals. This work became a prism of times and perspectives that can now be imagined with the help of this publication.SONDRA PERRY (\*1986, Perth Amboy, New York) is known for her computer-generated videos, installations, and performances.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The American architectural firm of Sparano + Mooney in Salt Lake City, Utah and Los Angeles, CA, stands for sustainable and innovative buildings that are harmoniously embedded in spectacular mountain landscapes. In this volume, architectural critic Michael Webb presents ten projects with the aid of photographs, drawings, sketches and texts, visualizing the process by which architectural ideas are conceived and realized. The architects respond in their plans to the overwhelming natural surroundings with restrained forms and the innovative detailing of materials. The firm's models, sketches, conceptual drafts and fully executed buildings offer a thoughtful perspective on developing architecture that thrives on the relationship between concept and place. Accompanying essays relate the buildings to their regional contexts and also highlight analogies to Land Art.MICHAEL WEBB is a Los Angeles-based British author who has written more than twenty books on architecture and design. He was named an honorary member of the American Institute of Architects and made a Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for his services to French culture.
