The work gathered here creates an alternative perspective on the built environment through contemporary culture. Particular attention is paid to spaces that are in some way temporary, contingent, marginal or fictional in order to critically analyse the meaning of art, and to provide a tenable counter-narative to architecture's dominant ideologies concerning technological imperatives and the monumental.
