Description
First exhibited at the University of Toronto's Eric Arthur Gallery, the Detours exhibition focuses on projects by Chinese architects that critically engage urban development in China today. Each project approaches this shifting context from a close reading of the given social and material situation, setting it apart from strategic initiatives that respond directly to the abstract demands of foreign and local capital or state ideology.
