Résumé:

"How can architecture confront the climate crises through scarcity? The Beauty of Impermanence addresses this urgent question through the lens of the second Sharjah Architecture Triennial, curated by Nigerian architect Tosin Oshinowo. The Triennial, and this catalog of its projects and perspectives, examines how architectural practices in the Global South have thrived under resource constraints and offers visionary alternatives to the North's history of exploitation and excess. Featuring contributions from Lesley Lokko, Paola Antonelli, Rahul Mehrotra, Yasmeen Lari, AbdouMaliq Simone, and others, the book presents three key themes--Renewed Contextuality, Extraction Politics, and Intangible Bodies--each of which provides a critical framework for rethinking architecture's role in shaping a more adaptable, sustainable future grounded in empathy , spirituality, and ecological responsibility"--From page [4] of cover.
