Description

Corrections and Collections: Architectures for Art and Crime Joe Day explores how institutions of discipline and exhibition have transformed urban landscapes in America. Prisons and museums, though differing in purpose, share common spatial and visual tactics to manage citizens and treasures. The design of contemporary museums and prisons reflects innovative architectural speculation, while also employing experimental scales and distributions through cities. This book recalibrates assumptions about art, architecture, and urban design in the context of America's defining civic priorities. By examining these two massive expansions in the built environment, Corrections and Collections provides new insights into the relationship between institutions, public engagement, class representation, and civic pride.
