Log 31: New Ancients Spring/ Summer 2014

‍Log 31: New Ancients is part of a series of publications, an independent journal on architecture and contemporary cities, founded in 2003 under the leadership of renowned architectural critic and editor Cynthia Davidson (1952-). It publishes three issues each year and focuses on textual commentary,intentionally resisting the lure of visual media. At the same time, it centers on the core thinking of architectural production.The 31st issue in the collection,published in the spring and summer of 2014, is now out of print and very rare. It offers the possibility of exploring contemporary contexts as “history,” with particular emphasis on combining traditional antecedents with new drawing techniques,leading readers to rethink the dialogue between architecture and history through engaging writings by architects, artists, and critics.
