Item description from seller

Paperback. How can collections and archives reshape the histories that cities tell about themselves? Counter-Collections: Dialogues Across Urban Space and Archives brings together artists, curators, architects, and researchers to explore how overlooked community-based archives and collections can move beyond institutional frameworks, becoming active civic agents through artistic and spatial interventions within medium-sized cities.Emerging from Counter-Kiosk, an artistic research project developed in Braga, Portugal, as part of the Braga 25 Portuguese Capital of Culturewhere five artists were invited to transform five abandoned kiosks into public exhibition platforms across the citythis volume uses this situated case to open broader questions about how cities collect, display, and contest their histories. Through conversations between artists involved in the project and contributors from other geographies, the book weaves together perspectives from architecture, ecology, trans studies, Roma feminism, and postcolonial critique.Structured across three actionsCollecting, Dialoguing, and Counteringthis publication unfolds through dialogues, visual essays, and critical reflections addressing representation, accountability, and the politics of working with community-based archives. In a time of ecological and social urgency, this book invites readers to reconsider how urban infrastructures and collective memory can be rearranged through attention, confrontation, dialogue, and imagination.
