Isaiah West Taber, Loie Fuller in La danse Blanche, 1897

“The fabrics were thrown into movement by the gestures of Fuller’s arms to produce what is in effect a dance of textiles. These suggest not only a panoply of art nouveau sculptural forms (flowers, for example) but also, a sequence of moving screens, an ongoing process of visual metamorphosis through movement and light.”

quoted by Tag Gronberg, “SCREENING DESIRE IN 1920s PARIS: SONIA AND ROBERT DELAUNAY’S SIMULTANEITY”

Living City Survival Kit - Archigram

Published on the occasion of the Living City exhibition held at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, London, in 1963. The image, here referred to as Living City Survival Kit, is ascribed to Warren Chalk, and it was produced within the milieu of the Archigram group. In a manner akin to Pop Art, the image represents the modernization of everyday life. Unlike Pop Art, it is about architecture; and unlike traditional architectural images, this image contains no buildings. Instead, the image draws attention to the invisible complement of architecture – how it is used, and how it shapes the experience of the user. The architect, it appears, can no longer impose legitimate order, nor claim genderless, objective distance from the subject of architecture. The image is ultimately concerned with the construction of the architect himself, to the point that it can be read as a self‐portrait.
