Informal Architectures : Space and Contemporary CultureTools Kiendl, Anthony; Keiller, Patrick; Macdonald, Marie-Paule. Informal Architectures : Space and Contemporary Culture. London, England: Black Dog Publishing, 2008.
Abstract (English)"Informal Architectures: Space and Contemporary Culture is a compilation of new and classic writing and visual art on spacial culture in modernity post 9/11. Contributors include established figures in the fields of cultural studies, art theory, urbanism and design. Informal Architectures creates an alternative perspective on the built environment through contemporary culture by focusing on the works and writing of international artists such as Dan Graham, Marjetica Potrc, and Gordon Matta-Clark. Particular attention is paid to spaces that are in some way temporary, contingent, marginal, or fictional in order to critically analyse the meaning of art, and to provide a tenable counter-narrative to architecture's dominant ideologies concerning the monumental and technological imperatives." -- Bookshop.org website.
