{"product_id":"architecture-and-feminism-isbn-9781568980430","title":"Architecture and Feminism","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eOver the last several decades, feminists and architects have independently developed critiques of modern Western assumptions and cultural practices. \u003ci\u003eArchitecture and Feminism\u003c\/i\u003e addresses the intersection of these two seemingly disparate fields through a lively and diverse collection of essays and projects, including interdisciplinary investigations of literature, social history, home economics, and art history.\u003cp\u003eArticles examine such varied topics as Niki de Saint-Phalles exuberant building-sized female sculpture Hon, the aesthetics and politics of the Playboy bachelor pad, Edith Wharton's ideas on domestic architecture, and the Legend of Master Manole, a disquieting Eastern European folktale that prescribes the ritual entombment of women in the walls of buildings, while visual projects take well-known structures by Philip Johnson and Louis Sullivan as points of departure for a feminist reading of architectural history. Rather than presenting a single, didactic position, this collection offers a range of fresh voices to describe the cross-connections and shared concerns between architecture and feminism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContributors to \u003ci\u003eArchitecture and Feminism\u003c\/i\u003e include Manuela Antoniu, Vanessa Chase, Deborah Fausch, Molly Hankwitz, Susan R.
