The architects, designers, artists and writers who were invited to contribute to this book--and to the exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art for which it serves as a "field guide"--reimagine the legacies of race-based dispossession in 10 American cities (Atlanta; Brooklyn, New York; Kinloch, Missouri; Los Angeles; Miami; Nashville; New Orleans; Oakland; Pittsburgh; and Syracuse) and celebrate the ways individuals and communities across the country have mobilized Black cultural spaces, forms and practices as sites of imagination, liberation, resistance, care and refusal. A broad range of essays by the curators and prominent scholars from diverse fields, as well as a portfolio of new photographs by the artist David Hartt, complement this volume's richly illustrated presentations of the architectural projects at the heart of MoMA's groundbreaking exhibition."--Back cover. 520 8 $a "The Museum of Modern Art announces the fourth installment of the Issues in Contemporary Architecture series, Reconstructions: Architecture and Blackness in America, an investigation into the intersections of architecture, Blackness and anti-Black racism in the American context. On view from February 20 through May 31, 2021, the exhibition and accompanying publication will examine contemporary architecture in the context of how systemic racism has fostered violent histories of discrimination and injustice in the United States. Such conditions have structured and continue to inform the built environment of American cities through public policies, municipal planning, and architecture, with specific repercussions for African American and African diaspora communities. Projects will explore how people have mobilized Black cultural spaces, forms, and practices as sites of imagination, liberation, resistance, and refusal."--City Life Org website (viewed on February 18, 2021) 650 0 $a Architecture and race $z United States $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Racism $z United States $x History $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a African American architects $v Exhibitions. 610 20 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) 610 27 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00530348 650 7 $a African American architects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799010 650 7 $a Architecture and race. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00813570 650 7 $a Racism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086616 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Anderson, Sean, $d 1972- $e editor. 700 1 $a Wilson, Mabel $q (Mabel O.), $e editor. 710 2 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.), $e host institution. 941 $a 2 952 $l AJPE887 $d 20220923010102.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317030807.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AB77C632CF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
