Summary:
Public toilets provide a unique opportunity for interrogating how conventional assumptions about the body, sexuality, privacy, and technology are formed in public spaces and inscribed through design across cultures. This collection of original essays from international scholars is the first to explore the cultural meanings, histories, and ideologies of public toilets as gendered spaces. The publication consists of two sets of essays. The first, "Potty Politics: Toilets, Gender and Identity," establishes the importance of accessible, secure public toilets to the creation of inclusive cities, work, and learning environments. The second set of essays, "Toilet Art : Design and Cultural Representations," discusses public toilets as spaces of representation and representational spaces, with reference to architectural design, humor, film, theater, art, and popular culture. Visual materials and original artwork are included throughout, depicting subjects as varied as female urinals, art installations sited in public restrooms, and the toilet in contemporary art. Taken together, these seventeen essays demonstrate that public toilets are often sites where gendered bodies compete for resources and recognition — and the stakes are high. Contributors include: Nathan Abrams, Jami L. Anderson, Johan Andersson, Kathryn H. Anthony, Kathy Battista, Andrew Brown-May, Ben Campkin, Meghan Dufresne, Peg Fraser, Deborah Gans, Clara Greed, Robin Lydenberg, Claudia Mitchell, Alison Moore, Frances Pheasant-Kelly, Bushra Rehman, Alex Schweder, Naomi Stead, and the editors.

Du Grand Architecte de l'Univers, de l'homme de Néandertal ou d'Imhotep, qui est le premier architecte ? Depuis le XVIIe siècle, les clichés perdurent : "Qui bastit ment. Il n'a pas bien pris ses mesures." Le cinéma enfonce le clou : Fernandel oublie les toilettes de monsieur le maire, tandis que Jamel Debbouze, alias Numérobis, pose la mosaïque d'un atrium avant de s'occuper des évacuations. L'architecte ne laisse pas indifférent. Personnage de roman ou de film, de bande dessinée ou de jeu pour enfants, à la une des journaux et des magazines, en timbre ou billet de banque, il est l'un des hérauts de notre temps. Perruqué ou poudré, en redingote ou en T-shirt noir, affublé de ses tés, compas ou ordinateurs, seul ou aux côtés de ses commanditaires, l'architecte dévoile ses multiples facettes dans ce livre, immortalisé par les plus grands peintres, graveurs, sculpteurs, photographes, illustrateurs et réalisateurs.
