"The Housing Project Discourses, Ideals, Models and Politics in 20th-Century Exhibitions" / Edited by Gaia Caramellino and Stéphanie Dadour, Leuven University Press, 2020, 1 Vol. (328 p.), ISBN: 9789462701823  Accédez au site éditeur : The Housing Project             RésuméThe role and impact of housing exhibitions in architectural culture Throughout the twentieth century housing displays have proven to be a singular genre of architectural and design exhibitions. By crossing geographies and adopting multiple scales of observation – from domestic space to urban visions – this volume investigates a set of unexplored events devoted to housing and dwelling, organised by technical, professional, cultural or governmental institutions from the interwar years to the Cold War. The book offers a first critical assessment of twentieth-century housing exhibits and explores the role of exhibitions in the codification of notions of domesticity, social models, policies, and architectural and urban discourse. At the intersection of housing studies and the history of exhibitions, The Housing Project not only offers a novel angle on architectural history but also enriches scholarly perspectives in urban studies, cultural and media history, design, and consumption studies.Contributeurs Contributors: Tamara Bjažić Klarin, Gaia Caramellino, John  Crosse, Stéphanie Dadour, Rika Devos, Fredie Floré, Johanna Hartmann, Erin McKellar, Laetitia  Overney (IPRAUS/AUSser), José Parra-Martínez, Mathilde Simonsen Dahl, Eva Storgaard,  Ludovica Vacirca
