Architecture Thinking across Boundaries: Knowledge transfers since the 1960s
Editat de Rajesh Heynickx, Ricardo Costa Agarez, Elke Couchezen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 iul 2022
Architecture Thinking across Boundaries looks at architectural theory through the lens of intellectual history. Eleven original essays explore a variety of themes and contexts, each examining how architectural knowledge has been transferred across social, spatial and disciplinary boundaries - whether through the international circulation of ideas, transdisciplinary exchanges, or transfers from design practice to theory and back again.
Dissecting the frictions, transformations and resistances that mark these journeys, the essays in this book reflect upon the myriad routes that architectural knowledge has taken while developing into architectural theory. They critically enquire the interstices - geographical, temporal and epistemological - that lie beyond fixed narratives. They show how unstable, vital and eminently mobile the processes of thinking about architecture have been.

Recenzii
Buildings stay still, but theory is always on the move. This simple fact, often noticed but little acted upon, is one of the two catalysts for this engaging collection of essays on architecture's recent past. The other - the chronic uncertainty as to whether architecture is at heart a practical, or a theoretical, discipline - is exploited to good effect through a series of lively and provocative discussions.
In Architecture Thinking Across Boundaries, the figure of the architect, the historian, the theorist is refreshingly reconfigured as one of the many players in a nexus of relationships between ideas, texts, exhibitions, lectures, dialogical practices and people.
