Content:
The American city of the 1960s and 1970s experienced seismic transformations, from shifting demographics and political protests to reshaping through massive infrastructure and urban renewal projects. Amid this climate of upheaval, photographers, architects, activists, performance artists, and filmmakers turned conditions of crisis into sites for civic discourse and artistic expression. Featuring contributions from more than twenty noted scholars in fields including art history, urban planning, architecture, and cultural studies, this groundbreaking publication argues for an important shift in photographic, cinematic, and planning practices based on the close observation of streets, neighborhoods, and seminal events in the country's three largest cities
