Spectacular City presents the work of leading artists who have chosen the urban landscape as their sphere of activity.
These artists show us the spectacle of urbanity as a myth of a life lived in a globalized, ever-changing, urban environment. They present a spectacular architecture that we may not yet have seen, but that they splay out in front of us as evidence in all its frightening glory. They are indeed not building, but photographing the future.
Aspects of this contemporary urban photography are explored in essays by Jean-Fran s Chevrier, Steven Jacobs and Emiliano Gandolfi.
