Summary:
With essays by Hans-Ulrich Obrist, Lebbeus Woods, Philipp Oswalt, Stefano Boeri, Michael Sorkins, Gutierrez + Portefaix, Jerry Herron, Sean Snyder, Marjetica Potrc, and others. Foreword by Stephen Vogel. Introduction by Peter Lang. Under the confluence of nomadic economics, technologies, and industries - commonly known as "suburban sprawl" - the city of Detroit, segregated and isolated, constitutes one of the great monuments to decay by a modernist city. It is perhaps the clearest and earliest example of the effects of a globalized economy and labor market. "Urban ecology" contains a collection of projects generated by the International Center for Urban Ecology (iCUE), a nomadic laboratory for future cities. Since its founding in 1998 by Kyong Park, iCUE has accomplished five significant projects through international workshops like "Architecture of resistance," installations, videos, and urban designs. The laboratory investigation promotes discourse on the decomposition and possible reconstitution of a "moving city" - a more useful term through which to identify a city like Detroit. iCUE's projects have taken anti-architectural and non-urban perspectives, using multi-disciplinary processes and integrated collaboration with local communities and activists. "Urban ecology" brings together essays on Detroit and many other cities in crisis around the world.
