Pamphlet Architecture #25: Gravityby James Cathcart
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:For fifteen years, three architects--James Cathcart, Frank Fantauzzi, and Terence van Elslander--from three different cities have held an ongoing collaboration, creating installations and other works of innovation and art about the act of building. "Pamphlet Architecture 25: Gravity" catalogs a cross section of their many works, from the portable toilets installed in the facade of New York's StoreFront for Art and Architecture to "Big Orbits," a giant solid and a giant void constructed from 4600 shipping palettes. Although strongly conceptual, their work reminds us that a primary function of architecture is to engage the public. Book News Annotation:Ten international architects and writers contribute to this
collection of brief essays documenting recent projects that
incorporate philosophical investigation with artistic and

initiated in 1977; each issue is prepared by an individual
author/architect—in this case, three individuals: Cathcart,
Fantauzzi, and Val Elslander who have worked collaboratively for many
years are and the founders of icebergproject.org. Illustrated
throughout with b&w photos.
