Summary:
This comprehensive guide to the post-war architecture of Lisbon divides the city into sixteen urban districts, organised into individual chapters with an introductory text and a map displaying the location of each selected project, which in turn are illustrated with photographs and drawings along with relevant data and explanatory text. The year 1948 saw the conclusion of the master plan for the city of Lisbon coordinated by Étienne de Gröer, something that has deeply marked the way in which the municipality has been organised up until the present day. The examples chosen were also considered in response to social and community interests, and avoid limited perspectives.

Summary:
A show challenging conventional understandings of public art, Culture in Action in Chicago had a new social agenda, and rethought what an exhibition of contemporary art might be. Through eight projects by artists initiated in the early 1990s and developed in collaboration with local people, the intention was to engage diverse groups over time, in addition to the visiting public in 1993. In the fifth book in Afterall's Exhibition Histories series, the course of these projects is documented, with critical reappraisal of this important exhibition in newly commissioned essays and interviews, together with reviews from the time.
