Description

Architecture in Black by The Athlone Press offers a deep investigation into the connections between aesthetic practice and linguistic practice. This book presents the first systematic analysis regarding the theoretical relationship between architecture and blackness. By examining how architecture and blackness operate within the same semiotic paradigm, the text provides a unique perspective for students and professionals in the arts and architecture fields. The author employs a specific technique where texts are related through the repetition and revision of their semiotic structures. Through the simultaneous reading of various canonical apparatus, this work reconstructs the genealogy of a black racial subject. This method allows for a critique of a discrete set of structures, making it a significant addition to the study of architectural theory and semiotics. This book is a vital resource for those researching the intersection of design, language, and identity.
