Some walls define "us" from "them" with medieval clarity. Some walls encourage fear or feed hate. Others kill. And every wall inspires its own subversion, whether by the infiltrators who dare to go over, under or around them, or by the artists who transform them.

If this century is to be known for peace, prosperity, beauty, and the restoration of our world, kinship with nature must become one of the foundations of our cultural life.

This ephemeral demand in turn requires unusual sensibility and creative genius of the architect, yet also makes the architect’s task particularly intriguing. This special issue analyses the elements architects have at their disposal to conceive transcendental places and sanctuaries conducive to contemplation and prayer, illustrated in seventeen recent projects from around the world, from Archstudio’s Waterside Buddhist Shrine and John McAslan’s Msheireb Mosque, to Wirmboden Alpine Chapel and Skorba Village Centre.

He also discusses the failed plans for the World Centre of Communication, an attempt at creating an international city of peace in 1913. Because this era was marked by the heyday of Imperialism and its related illusions of grandeur, the book evokes the clashing and melding of political and architectural ideals - a conundrum that continues to plague city planners today.

The question for Negri is how one can preserve the freedom of spirit within a penal structure that focuses more on the interior than exterior life of the prisoner. For Antonio Negri, the cell of resistance from which he wrote became an enclosure of peace. The Cell is a DVD of three video interviews with Antonio Negri: 1997 while he was in exile in Paris, 1998 in the Roman prison of Rebibbia, and 2003 after his release in Rome. DVD PAL version ONLY
