Trade Paperback. Etat : Used - Very Good. Founded in 1950, Perspecta is the oldest and most distinguished of the student-edited American architectural journals. Perspecta 33 explores the concept of architectural autonomy and its relationship to the discipline's potential as a critical agent.The journal revisits the debate of the past thirty years over architectural autonomy -- the belief that architecture is a self-contained field with its own legible, meaningful forms. It addresses the twentieth-century lineage of autonomy from its origins in the fine arts and art history to its architectural manifestation in the 1970s -- a time when the functionalist, utilitarian nature of the modernist era led to a perceived dissolution of the discipline's professional boundaries. From this historical understanding, the journal investigates current practice, asking whether autonomy is still essential to the 'critical project.'Perspecta 33 notes a shift in critical attention from the center of the discipline to its periphery, where architecture is able to translate intelligence from other disciplines into its own conventions and language, as well as pass ideas and speculation into the world. New methods of architectural production (digital design, imaging, and fabrication), growing environmental concerns, and changing ideas about domesticity and urban space suggest alternative directions for criticality.The essays are organized in two parts: those that explicitly engage the history of architectural autonomy and those that offer alternatives or counterexamples. In addition to the articles, there is a portfolio of contemporary projects that draw their criticality from disciplines outside architecture. Perspecta 33 also includes a work by the artist Ann Hamilton. Articles are by Stanford Anderson, Carol Burns, Bernard Cache, Diane Ghirardo, Elizabeth Grosz, K. Michael Hays and Lauren Kogod, Neil Leach, Hashim Sarkis, Robert Somol, Michael Stanton, Anthony Vidler, Sara Whiting, and Christopher Wood.The editors of Perspecta 33 are graduates of The Yale School of Architecture and practicing architects.

Trade Paperback. Etat : Used - Very Good. After the closing of his first art gallery in 1917, photographer AlfredStieglitz reemerged in the New York art world in the 1920s. He achieved his comebackin large part through the innovative means he used to promote himself and theartists of his inner circle. Stieglitz and a number of well-established critics drewon period conceptions of sexuality, gender, and cultural identity to characterizethe artists he championed as the fulfillment of a shared vision of a vital, nonrepressed American art.In Painting Gender, Constructing Theory, Marcia Brennanexamines how Stieglitz and the critics drew on early-twentieth-century discourses onsex and the psyche, particularly the theories of Sigmund Freud and Havelock Ellis, to characterize the artworks of the Stieglitz circle. Critics routinely describedthe often highly abstracted paintings of Georgia O'Keeffe, Arthur Dove, John Marin, Marsden Hartley, and Charles Demuth as transparent displays of the most intimateaspects of the self, taking both subject matter and painterly form to be guided bythe artist's own gendered and psychic energies.Focusing on the key historicalcriticism and artworks, Brennan shows how the identities of all five Stieglitzcircle artists were presented in terms of the masculinity and femininity, and theheterosexuality and homosexuality, thought to be embedded in their work. Brennanalso discusses Stieglitz's relation to competing artistic and critical movements, including Thomas Hart Benton's regionalist art and Clement Greenberg's reformulationof formalism. Arguing that American formalist criticism consisted of a complex andparadoxical mixture of corporeality and disembodied transcendence, Brennan providesinsight not only into the works of the Stieglitz circle but into the development offormalist criticism itself. How critical conceptions of gender and sexuality helped to advance the artistic careers of the Alfred Stieglitz Circle and influenced American formalist aesthetics.…
