Guest-edited by Jill Stoner and Ozayr Saloojee Over the past
decade, and in a more concentrated form over the past two years,
there has been increasing recognition of architecture's systemic
complicity in constructing and upholding hierarchies of race and
class, and privileging colonial paradigms that perpetuate spatial
and economic inequity. This AD issuereveals how designers,
practitioners, scholars and architects are participating in
dismantling the major canons of Western architecture. The work is
both literal and figural: taking buildings apart and reconstituting
them, and challenging mythologies that include drawing-as-analogue,
building-as object, architect-as-hero and nature-as-other.
Architecture has both potential and responsibility for political
agency in the public realm. The contributions to this issue
foreground emancipatory spatial ideas and practices from around the
world, demonstrating that refusal is no longer just absence and
denial, but a constructive mode of resistance and action that needs
to be approached through subversive urban works, design pedagogy
and alliances across multiple disciplines. Contributors: Piper
Bernbaum, Carwil Bjork-James, Thiresh Govender, Lucia Jalon
Oyarzun, Jennifer Newsom and Tom Carruthers, Cong Chi Nguyen,
Quilian Riano, Hannah Le Roux, Alberto de Salvatierra, Cathy Smith,
Chat Travieso, and Ilze Wolff.
