Sobre este artículo
London: Booth-Clibborn Editions, 2006. Pictorial boards, 391 pages, colour illustrations; 22 cm. Firm binding, clean inside copy. "We can't tell where the game begins-- its toys--and where the drama ends--the metropolitical tragedy. Therein lies the paradox of urban art, the paradoxical aesthetic between the panic and the circus games. Mockery, childishness or neo-terrorism, no work of architecture lends itself to laughter, contrary to sculpture it can frighten, seriously disturb, or sometimes even raise a smile, but joy is never part of the edifice. Just what will become of our cities, these concentrations of real estate inertia?"-- jacket.
