THE ARCHITECTURE OF DAGMAR RICHTER WITH A FOREWORD BY ANTHONY VIDLER AND AN INTERVIEW WITH CLAIRE ZIMMERMAN THE WORK OF THE AMERICAN ARCHITECT DABMAR RICHTER EXPLORES RADICALLY NEW SOLUTIONS TO ARCHITECTURE AND PLANNING BY ITS RESPONSE TO ELEMENTS THAT ARE USUALLY DEEMED INAPPROPRIATE, IRRELEVANT OR UNDESIRABLE: TRACES OF A SITE'S HISTORY, CONTEMPORARY PHOTOGRAPHS OR DRAWINGS, AND TEXTS OR VERBAL MYTHS. RICHTER'S WORK ON 'RE-SKINNING' THE CITY PROPOSES THAT THE ACT OF DESIGNING IS AN ACT OF EDITING, APPROPRIATING AND LAYERING.
