In the Wintry Thicket of Metropolitan Civilization
ar/ge kunst #16

This fanzine, published in connection with the group show of the same title at ar/ge kunst, revolves around different topics related to urbanism and the history of urban development. The title refers to an eponymous passage from The Culture of Cities, the first book by Lewis Mumford, published in 1938. In keeping with his recommendation to rethink urban development with a profoundly humanistic approach, the works featured in the exhibition express an urgent need to rethink the concept of human living space, starting with the most important and decisive place of aggregation and collective occupation: namely, the city.
