Overview

Illustrated by critically examining a range of architectural journalism, from an article by artist Paul Nash in The Architectural Review, 1940, to an early project by contemporary French architects Lacaton & Vassal (1996) published in the journal 2G in 2001, to recent photography by Hisao Suzuki published in the journal El Croquis, this book brings a radical and detailed analysis of the architectural media. It addresses issues of architectural criticism, architectural photography and the role of journal editors, and argues that the architectural media is a site of contestation and ambiguity regarding the role of critical and speculative thinking. The book highlights moments where a different type of critical voice emerges within the architectural media, indicating the possibility of a more progressive engagement with the media as a platform for critical thinking about architecture.
