Résumé:
The metropolis has been the near exclusive focus of queer scholars and queer cultures in America. Asking us to look beyond the cities on the coasts, Scott Herring draws a new map, tracking how rural queers have responded to this myopic mindset. Interweaving a wide range of disciplines—art, media, literature, performance, and fashion studies—he develops an extended critique of how metronormativity saturates LGBTQ politics, artwork, and criticism. To counter this ideal, he offers a vibrant theory of queer anti-urbanism that refuses to dismiss the rural as a cultural backwater.

Résumé:
Queer people have always found ways to exist and be together, and there will always be a need for queer spaces. In this illustrated volume, Adam Nathaniel Furman and Joshua Mardell have gathered together a community of contributors to share stories of spaces that range from the educational to the institutional to the re-appropriated, and many more besides. With historic, contemporary and speculative examples from around the world, this book recognises LGBTQIA+ life past and present as strong, vibrant, vigorous, and worthy of its own place in history. Looking forward, it suggests visions of what form these spaces may take in the future to continue uplifting queer lives.

Résumé:
« La gentrification des esprits » est un retour captivant sur les « années SIDA » et l'activisme d'ACT UP dans le New York des années 1980 et 1990. Sarah Schulman, elle-même new-yorkaise et militante de la cause LGBT, se souvient de la disparition, pratiquement du jour au lendemain, de la culture rebelle queer, des loyers à bas coûts et du prolifique mouvement artistique qui se développait au coeur de Manhattan ; remplacés par des porte-parole gays conservateurs, ainsi que par le consumérisme de masse. Sarah Schulman décrit avec précision et engagement le « remplacement d'une communauté par une autre » et le processus de gentrification qui toucha ces quartiers concomitamment à la crise du SIDA.

Résumé:
The outcome of three lectures held at SCI-Arc in Los Angeles in March 2012 – given by Peter Eisenman, Jeffery Kipnis, and Thom Mayne – this book introduces the interrelation of these events in the form of an abstract symposium about the current state of the discipline, and about its role at the school. It combines with the real symposium on the thesis content that took place, which ultimately became a running commentary on contemporary architecture. The intersection of intros, debates, lectures, and audience queries framed each proposition as a provisional hypothesis immediately subject to challenge and reformulation. With contributions by Eric Owen Moss.

Résumé:
The sixteenth instalment of the ‘Contemporary Architect’s Concept Series’ takes the delicately structured work of Japanese visual artist and architect Ryuji Nakamura as its theme. Nakamura’s often room-filling installations are formed by regular patterns of lines that play with perceptions of scale, and are occasionally so thin as to almost disappear into the space around(...)

Résumé:
The sixteenth instalment of the ‘Contemporary Architect’s Concept Series’ takes the delicately structured work of Japanese visual artist and architect Ryuji Nakamura as its theme. Nakamura’s often room-filling installations are formed by regular patterns of lines that play with perceptions of scale, and are occasionally so thin as to almost disappear into the space around them. Filled with fascinating objects, structures and images, the book accompanies each project with short, contemplative texts by Nakamura that set forth an array of queries into the nature of structure, form, variation and spatiality. A captivating look at the complexity and depth of lines in architecture.

Résumé:
As London emerged from the devastation of the Second World War, planners and policymakers sought to rebuild the city in ways that would reshape the behavior of its citizens as much as it would its buildings and infrastructure—a program defined by a strong emphasis on civic order and conservative values of national community.

Résumé:
As London emerged from the devastation of the Second World War, planners and policymakers sought to rebuild the city in ways that would reshape the behavior of its citizens as much as it would its buildings and infrastructure—a program defined by a strong emphasis on civic order and conservative values of national community. One of the groups most significantly affected by this new, moralistic climate of reformation and renewal was queer men, whom the police, the media, and lawmakers targeted as an urgent urban problem by marking their lives and desires as criminal and deviant. Richard Hornsey examines how queer men legitimized, resisted, and reinvented this ambitious reconstruction program, which extended from the design of basic public spaces and municipal libraries to private living rooms and home decor. From their association with the urban stereotype of the spiv (slang for a young petty criminal who lived by his wits and shirked legitimate work) and vilification in the tabloids as perverts to the assimilated homosexuals within reformist psychology, Hornsey details how these efforts to transform London fundamentally restructured the experiences and identities of gay men in the city and throughout the country.

Résumé:
How do we challenge the prevailing visual discourse of contemporary architecture? Is there a more harmonious architectural production path? Can we inhabit Earth without annihilating the very conditions sustaining us and others? "Dominio" confronts architecture’s grand narrative by illuminating its production processes. These images strive to trigger a critical introspection about architectural production and its socio-ecological footprint, while contesting the dominant visual narrative that perpetuates its existence. This publication, then, is a mosaic of queries, contradictions, and internal conflict. It serves as my introspective critique of how my role as an architectural photographer might have inadvertently contributed to architecture’s fetishization.

Résumé:
This issue presents a critique of the normative violence of gender in the specific context of indoor architectures. It engages a dialogue between trans perspectives on public bathrooms or the capitalist workplace, the demagogic blindspot of femonationalism when violence against women is deployed in domestic spaces, the clandestine alternatives to white “gayborhoods” for queer Arabs in France, the impossibility for young Hong Kong lesbians or, to an even higher degree, female migrant domestic workers to access “a room of one’s own”, the violence of the norm in the design of all rooms and furniture, or the far-from-neutral space of the coming out. The non-topical part of the issue also presents articles on the demilitarization struggle in Hawai’i, the Moroccan political movement of the Hirak in the Rif, and life as a Dane of color in stigmatized and gentrifying neighborhoods.
