Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Everything Must Move is a book documenting over a decade of propositions about the suburban city in general, and Houston in particular. This city – shapeless, polluted, traffic-clogged, water-logged, limitless – has been a workshop for testing ideas about operating in impossible situations. Everything Must Move is, in many ways, an archival project, however through the infusion of this archival material with new perspectives and projections the project remains poly-vocal, diverse, and open. This new material presented mainly in the form of short essays, written in response to the projects, photographs, and research that form the backbone of the project that Rice School of Architecture, under the direction of dean Lars Lerup, has undertaken in the last 15 years. Roemer van Toorn had an online conversation with Lars Lerup over a long period of time (by email) investigating Lars Lerup's position and architecture work both as a dean and writer.
