At Home with Ivan Vladislavi¿

An African Flaneur Greens the Postcolonial City

Beschreibung

This monograph is the first comprehensive analysis of the works of Ivan Vladislavi¿. Bringing a flaneur's sensitivity and deep word hoard to postcolonial Johannesburg, Vladislavi¿ developed an "internal GPS" and a minimalist style, which helped him to establish a critical sense of home and to create a culture of sustainability.
