Architecture And Body

A collection of essays, exhibitions, and projects by noted artists, architects, and theoreticians that addresses the continually shifting values of the body as it both affects and is affected by built form. The book suggests that although discourse about the body is grossly under-represented in the practice and pedagogy of architecture, it is absolutely vital for the reestablishment of a meaningful built culture.
