Paperback. Condition: New. If participation has been an ideal in politics since ancient democracy, in art it became central only with the avant-gardes emerging from WWI and the Russian Revolution. Politics and aesthetics are still catching up with each other. In the 21st century, since the revolutionary unrest of the 1960s, participation in art and architecture has lost its utopian glow and become the focus of a fierce debate: does 'participatory' art and architecture shape social reality, or is it shaped by it?Contemporary critics see in participation only technocratic control, while others embrace it as a viable politics in an era of global capitalism. This innovative book breaks the impasse by looking at how participants themselves exert power, rather than being victimized or liberated from it. From artists hijacking Google Earth to protesters setting up a museum of the revolution in Cairo, art, architecture and daily life are explored in their participatory dimension.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Seminal texts by renowned Italian architect Giancarlo De Carlo on architecture, education, and anarchy.Giancarlo De Carlo's academic and professional career combined two seemingly opposed terms in a single vocation: architecture and anarchy. But this was a vocation that avoided the utopian fantasies of the 1960s and 1970s and instead strove for rigor. In the essays collected in this book, De Carlo shows how the idea of participatory architecture can open the way to a realistic, fully realizable utopia-in theory, but also in practice: in his urban planning of the city center of Rimini and in his architectural plan for the village of Matteotti in Terni."Architecture is too important to be left to architects," De Carlo claims, and one of the fundamental questions this collection poses is: What is the role of the architect? Included here are De Carlo's writings on the crisis of the university in the wake of student protests that not only anticipated the uprising of May 1968 but continue to speak to the crisis in the educational system today. His analysis of the "overturned pyramid" structure of the university still has resonance today, where everything is supported by the very thin tip of the academic body that relies not on the tensions, suggestions, and demands that come from below, but by the principle of authority-a structure that emphasizes the institutionalization and professionalization of education and scholarship rather than on alternative processes of learning.Also included are De Carlo's celebrated essays "Why/How to Construct School Buildings" and "Architecture's Public," which address the potential of architecture to translate and realize the issues that arise from the act of protest. "English translation of key texts by libertarian socialist architect Giancarlo de Carlo, outlining his notion of a more democratic "participatory architecture" in practice and pedagogy"-- Provided by publisher.
