Abstract

In this book, Lori Brown examines the relationship between space, defined physically, legally and legislatively, and how these factors directly impact the spaces of abortion. It analyzes how various political entities shape the physical landscapes of inclusion and exclusion to reproductive healthcare access, and questions what architecture's responsibilities are in respect to this spatial conflict. Employing writing, drawing and mapping methodologies, this interdisciplinary project explores restrictions and legislatures which directly influence abortion policy in the US, Mexico and Canada. It questions how these legal rulings produce spatial complexities and why architecture isn't more culturally and spatially engaged with these spaces. In Mexico, where abortion is fully legal only in Mexico City during the first trimester, women must travel vast distances and undergo extreme conditions in order to access the procedure. Conservative state governments continue to make abortion a severely punishable crime. In Canada, there are nowhere near the cultural and religious stigmas to abortion as in the US and Mexico. Completely legal and without restrictions, Canada offers an important contrast to the ongoing abortion issues within the US and Mexico. Researching the spatial implications of such a politicized space, this book expands beyond a study of abortion clinic and includes other spaces such as women's shelters and hospitals that require multiple levels of secured spaces in order to discuss the spatial ramifications of access and security within spaces that are highly personal, private, and sometimes secret or even hidden. In questioning what architecture's responsibility is in these spatial conflicts, the book looks at how what architecture 'does' can be used to reconsider the spaces and security around such contested places, and ultimately suggests what design's potential impact might be. In doing so, it shows how architecture's role might be redefined within social and spatial practices. -- Back Cover.

Abstract

The Women who changed Architecture chronicles the pioneering women worldwide who have shaped architecture since the late nineteenth century. Women have long been underrepresented in architectural history books, perpetuating the notion that the profession is solely the domain of men. The Women who changed Architecture is a critical step toward correcting the record, highlighting such accomplished practioners as Marion Mahony Griffin, the first woman to receive an architecture license in the United States, in 1894, and Frank Lloyd Wright's longtime lead designer ; Llly Reich, whose pivotal work in the design of the world-renowned Barcelona Pavilion was credited to Mies van der Rohe ; and Anne Griswold Tyng, who played an instrumental role in the design of the interior of Louis Kahn's Yale University Art Gallery and Design Center, considered solely his masterpiece.
