Summary:
Critical Architecture examines the relationship between design and criticism in architecture. Placing architecture in an interdisciplinary context, the book explores architectural criticism with reference to fields such as art, cultural and literary criticism, and considers how critical practice in design operates through a number of different modes: buildings, drawings and texts. With thirty-six essays by an international cast of leading academics and designers, organised under four thematic headings, Critical Architecture brings together a diverse range of projects and writings, which taken together challenge the view that the terms 'design' and 'criticism' should be divided.

Cet ouvrage est composé de cinq parties qui invitent à un déplacement de sens et d’idées autour des collections faisant écho aux formules dynamiques, interrogatives et inclusives que tendent à adopter les musées. Les recherches qui y sont publiées ont, pour la grande majorité, été menées dans le cadre des activités du Groupe de recherche et de réflexion CIÉCO. Les différents chapitres interrogent l’impact de l’évènementiel sur les collections ou analysent des stratégies muséales qui cherchent à valoriser les collections par les ressorts évènementiels. Cet ouvrage, qui vient combler une importante lacune dans l’étude sur les collections, s’adresse à quiconque s’intéresse au patrimoine, aux musées, aux expositions, aux œuvres d’art que ce soit dans la perspective de l’histoire de l’art, de la muséologie, des arts visuels, de l’architecture, de l’ethnographie ou de la sociologie.

Fainstein also tests her ideas through case studies of New York, London, and Amsterdam by evaluating their postwar programs for housing and development in relation to the three norms. She concludes by identifying a set of specific criteria for urban planners and policymakers to consider when developing programs to assure greater justice in both the process of their formulation and their effects.

Summary:
"One Place after Another" offers a critical history of site-specific art since the late 1960s and a theoretical framework for examining the rhetoric of aesthetic vanguardism and political progressivism associated with its many permutations. Informed by urban theory, postmodernist criticism in art and architecture, and debates concerning identity politics and the public sphere, the book addresses the siting of art as more than an artistic problem. It examines site specificity as a complex cipher of the unstable relationship between location and identity in the era of late capitalism. The book addresses the work of, among others, John Ahearn, Mark Dion, Andrea Fraser, Donald Judd, René¥ Green, Suzanne Lacy, Iñ©§¯ Manglano-Ovalle, Richard Serra, Mierle Laderman Ukeles, and Fred Wilson.
