Summary:
Hutchinson's works are ephemeral and evanescent, produced out in the open, where they are subject to the whims of nature. Much of it is the product of his "thrown rope" method—literally throwing ropes over an expanse of land, then placing lime or planting flowers along the lines determined by the ropes. The result is a snakelike garden or swerving lines of bleached land.(...)

Summary:
Hutchinson's works are ephemeral and evanescent, produced out in the open, where they are subject to the whims of nature. Much of it is the product of his "thrown rope" method—literally throwing ropes over an expanse of land, then placing lime or planting flowers along the lines determined by the ropes. The result is a snakelike garden or swerving lines of bleached land. Hutchinson has even thrown ropes underwater, planting flowers at the bottom of a lake or stringing oranges or onions beneath the water's surface.

Summary:
Experimental, craftsmanlike, daring – twenty U.S. architectural practices are transforming contemporary buildings, cities and landscapes that are distinctly American into works of global significance. The book presents twenty diverse practices from every corner of the country to investigate the kind of originality that is unique to the American culture and climate. Beginning by tracing the most recent developments in American architecture and identifying regional, theoretical or practical strands, the book focuses on each studio in depth, featuring an extensive profile and coverage of projects. The studio profiles are followed by essays that present the work of five of the most recent practices to emerge on the scene with fresh new approaches. A reference section contains concise biographical and bibliographical information on each architect. Featured architects: • Allied Works Architecture • Architecture Research Office • Building Design Workshop • Wendell Burnette Architects • Daly, Genik Architects • Diller + Scofidio • Garofalo Architects • Leslie Gill Architect • Guthrie + Buresh Architects • Dan Hoffman • Vincent James Associates • Rick Joy Architect • Kennedy & Violich Architecture • Kuth/Ranieri • Greg Lynn Form • Michael McInturf Architects • Office dA • Thomas Phifer + Partners • Charles Rose Architects • SHoP/Sharples Holden Pasquarelli.

Summary:
From the early decades of the twentieth century until the 1980s, Marxist art history was at the forefront of radical approaches to the discipline. But in the last two decades of the century and into the next, Marxist art historians found themselves marginalized from the vanguard by the rise of postmodernism and identity politics. In the wake of the recent global crisis there has been a resurgence of interest in Marx. Now available in paperback, this collection of essays brings together 30 academics who are reshaping art history along Marxist lines.
