- Details
Signed by Denise Scott Brown in pink pen on table of contents page. Inscribed and signed again on forward page.
The ten essays in this collection extend from Denise Scott Brown's 1969 text, 'On Pop Art, Permissiveness and Planning' (written three years before the publication of Venturi, Scott Brown and Izenour's seminal book Learning From Las Vegas) to 'Towards an Active Socioplastics' from 2007, which offers an overview of Scott Brown's education and the gestation of her key architectural and urban ideas. In between, eight other essays from the 1970s, 80s and 90s, offer insights not only into Scott Brown's evolving architectural imagination but touch upon the changing collective ideas and aspirations of design education and practice.
The collection is bookended by two additional texts by Scott Brown, a foreword and an afterword, addressing specifically the act of writing about architecture.
