Description
Gordon Matta-Clark: Open House is a unique architectural artwork that has survived as only documentation and sculptural sections. In 1972, Matta-Clark installed a dumpster on the street between 98 and 112 Greene Street in New York's SoHo neighborhood, creating corridors and small rooms within the container using discarded materials. This piece, titled Open House, is the only still-extant architectural work by Matta-Clark. The book provides a historical and theoretical approach to Open House and Matta-Clark's entire oeuvre, featuring contributions from experts in the field. By examining this crucial piece, readers can gain insight into Matta-Clark's innovative approach to architecture and his role as a pioneer of "anarchitecture".
