Man About Town | Mariana Mogilevich Perceptive critics noted early on that Serra’s sculpture only made sense in relation to its time and place and gave meaning only to those specific conditions against which it unfolded. Serra insisted…

As institutions retrofitted themselves to house Richard Serra’s massive steel forms, this piece shows how his work transitioned from confrontational public interventions to museum-bound monuments.

I don't know why I hadn't heard before about Jan Banning's Bureaucratics project β€”Β documenting the material culture of civil administrations in Bolivia, China, France, India, Liberia, Russia, the United States, and Yemen janbanning.com/2022/07/01/b...

Trump Wants Immigrants on U.S. Soil to Hand Over Social Media Accounts to Apply for Citizenship Last time Trump demanded social media handles for citizenship, green card, and visa applicants, it was only for immigrants outside the U.S.

Trump is demanding social media handles for citizenship, green card, and visa applicants whether they're already in the U.S. or not.

The book cover for 'Spaces of Anticolonialism' by Stephen Legg. The cover features a black-and-white aerial photograph of a densely populated urban area, overlaid with a sepia-toned filter at the top. The title, "Spaces of Anticolonialism," is displayed in large white serif text, with the subtitle "Delhi’s Urban Governmentalities" in smaller uppercase letters below. The author's name, "Stephen Legg," appears in white against a burnt-orange background at the bottom. The top of the cover includes the series title, "Geographies of Justice and Social Transformation 65," in small white uppercase letters.

There is something very poised about discussing these spaces as circulation architectures and not only as the end points of larger infrastructures.
