Art Metropole Scapegoat

Art Metropole: Discussion with Scapegoat editors and issue contributors

Art Metropole at MOCA 158 Sterling Rd., Toronto, Ontario

In the LIFE issue we find evidence of architecture’s ongoing metaphysical work in the use of architectural building codes as a tool to limit women’s reproductive choices in Texas, the US military’s conversion of the Aleutian archipelago into its own private radiation sensor, the management of racialized ghosts in Indonesian squatter settlements, the rise of neo-vitalist urbansim in Europe, and the introduction of the logic of automation into burial practices in Tokyo.
