SYNOPSIS
What is it that gives places their individual qualities and defines the life of a city?
Architects and urbanists are accustomed to describing and creating the organizational structures, the layouts and physical attributes of our cities. But what are the relations between the design of a city—its form—and the life engendered by that form?
Responding to this question is the inspiration for In the Life of Cities. Contributors from a wide range of fields address the inseparability of urban life and urban form. Portfolios of contemporary photography assert the layered realities of urban life today.
With contributions by Arjun Appadurai, Eve Blau, Svetlana Boym, Lindsay Bremner, Jana Cephas, Felipe Correa, Rahul Mehrotra, Mohsen Mostafavi, Antoine Picon, Gyan Prakash, Nasser Rabbat, Rafi Segal, Jorge Silvetti, AbdouMaliq Simone, and Charles Waldheim.
Featured cities: Baku, Bucharest, Buenos Aires, Cairo, Caracas, Chicago, Dakar, Detroit, Hong Kong, Houston, Jakarta , Johannesburg, London, Moscow, Mumbai, Paris, Quito, São Paulo, St. Petersburg, Tel Aviv, Tirana, Tokyo, and Toronto.
