description: This is not a conventional architecture book; it is intended for (and accessible to) only those who resopnd to the far reaches of conceptual art/architecture. Essays by Aleksandra Wagner and Michael Menser accompany Woods' drawings and paintings and an essay by Woods himself which "The projects presented here for Sarajevo, Havana, and San Francisco propose various forms of peripheries and edges commonly referred to as `walls.' These most primordial of architectural elements are necessitated by the state of contemporary culture, which finds itself in the midst of a crisis that can be met fully at its peripheries and edges, but not at all at its core, even though that is where its causes and most fatal effects are found." 12.25x9.25 Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
