Summary:

"Acetate film, an exhaust fan, lollipops, a bicycle, paper and pens. In Group Efforts: Changing Public Space, vital voices in art and design use everyday objects to transform surroundings in remarkable ways. This volume chronicles projects organized by the Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation at Columbia University and Elastic City. In it, Todd Shalom and Hayal Pozanti assemble new shapes from Manhattan's West Village streetscape; Greta Hansen, Kyung Jae Kim, and Adam Koogler host spontaneous political forums in a pavilion built with plastic and blown air; and Karen Finley détourns Columbus Circle into an urban-scale mandala of resistance, reparation, and discovery. An incisive essay by designer and cultural historian Mabel O. Wilson positions these creative occupations alongside recent acts of protest."--Page [4] of cover.
