Summary:
On the subject of displacement, editor Scott McLeod writes: “In the modern era, mass migration emerged as a major contributing factor to social and cultural change; intensifying in the last half of the twentieth century, it became one of the defining characteristics of contemporary life. Today, a generation whose members may have been born in one country, raised in several others, and who study, live and work in a variety of locations, has come of age. The artists of this generation, embodying a multiplicity of identities, create work that addresses their transcultural experience in all its complexity.”

Summary:
In 2002, ‘Wallpaper’ magazine listed Australian architect Sean Godsell as someone destined to change the way we live. His ‘Future Shack’ (1999), constructed from shipping containers, drew international attention, and he has since garnered numerous awards. This monographic edition of ‘El Croquis’ explores Godsell’s work, which is primarily rooted in his belief in the power of architecture to help the less fortunate. A craftsman at heart, the fact that he is demanding and exacting in both the logic and execution of his designs is clear. Besides an in-depth focus on ten significant projects, the issue includes an interview with Leon van Schaik and a critical text by Juhani Pallasmaa.
