Kim Förster traces the compelling history of the Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies, which was active in New York from 1967 to 1985. Drawing on extensive archival research and oral histories, he constructs a collective biography that details the Institute's diverse roles and the dynamic interplay between research and design, education, culture, and publishing. By exploring the transformation of cultural production into a practice as well as the culturalization and global postmodernization of architecture, the volume contributes significantly to the institutional history of architecture.ARCHITECTURE / Urban & Land Use PlanningbisacshArchitecture.City.Culture.Education.History of Science.History.New York.Science.Urban Studies.ARCHITECTURE / Urban & Land Use Planning.Förster Kimauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1733135Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF)fndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996588058503316Building Institution4148320UNISA
