Summary:
The only thing better than one boring building is hundreds of them. Far from the glamourous and avant-garde architectural features that make Los Angeles justifiably famous are the humble apartment buildings known as "dingbats." But "Pretty Vacant" dares to elevate the low-rise, the boxy, the not remarkably well-constructed to the architecturally sublime. In this brick of(...)

Summary:
The only thing better than one boring building is hundreds of them. Far from the glamourous and avant-garde architectural features that make Los Angeles justifiably famous are the humble apartment buildings known as "dingbats." But "Pretty Vacant" dares to elevate the low-rise, the boxy, the not remarkably well-constructed to the architecturally sublime. In this brick of a book, through scads of photographs of these underappreciated gems, their boundless surfacey charms are soon obvious. Combining funky textures, streamlined sconces, and future-retro ornamentation, these buildings practically define LA vernacular in their optimistic mix of mid-century modishness and darling details. Clive Piercy's photographs provide a streetside glimpse into the curious lives of these buildings, with charming names that range from the regal (Kings Studios) to the space-age (The Galaxie). Assembled in a compact but weighty package with more than 480 images, "Pretty Vacant" provides a snapshot tour and kitschy homage to this underdog architectural form.

Summary:
At a moment when the discipline of Canadian art history seems to be in flux and the study of Canadian visual culture is gaining traction outside of art history departments, the authors of Negotiations in a Vacant Lot were asked: is "Canada" - or any other nation - still relevant as a category of inquiry?

Summary:
At a moment when the discipline of Canadian art history seems to be in flux and the study of Canadian visual culture is gaining traction outside of art history departments, the authors of Negotiations in a Vacant Lot were asked: is "Canada" - or any other nation - still relevant as a category of inquiry? Is our country simply one of many "vacant lots" where class, gender, race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation interact? What happens to the project of Canadian visual history if we imagine that Canada, as essence, place, nation, or ideal, does not exist? The authors of this collection stand at the multiple points where national culture and globalization collide, however, suggesting that academic investigation of the visual in Canada is contested in ways that cannot be contained by arbitrary borders.
