WORK-BOOK - text contribution

For the possible no end, a text contribution on temporary-housing and shelter, and act of rebuilding.

WORK-BOOK brings together diverse responses to the idea of temporary structures with the specific intent of promoting critical research and experimental forays between the fields of art, design and architecture. The publication includes a manual for constructing makeshift furniture, several essays and visual contributions that focus on what it means to operate in either the transitional city of Christchurch, the aftermath of the natural disasters in Japan, or the implications and qualities inherent to a temporary form. WORK-BOOK embraces transitional and temporary methodologies and speculates on the latent possibilities that may exist in opportunistic, collaborative, short-term initiatives.

By the book @ split/fountain


 

By the book is a visual survey of the long-gone 'today'. Houses, shops, cities, villages and ways of people's life, you will find a mixture of lost and unchanged things between the pages of publications that are at least 40 year-old. 

Organised by artist Asumi Mizuo for S/F, this project presents a broad range of photography from some unexpected sources.
On loan from the private collections of Auckland-based artists and photographers, and including Mizuo’s collection of vintage photogravure print books from Japan.

Display tables by Eleanor Cooper and Melanie Kueng.
