Résumé:

"2009 is Linz's year as European Capital of Culture. This calls for the creation of a new profile for the Upper Austrian provincial capital, which has shown a remarkable talent for reinventing itself in the recent past ... In a visual dialogue with other cities 'Linz Texas' developes a both atmospheric and challenging reading of a medium-sized city which ventures far beyond the familiar methods of urban representation"--Page 4 of cover.
