Discursive Architecture - Tactics for critical intervention in the work of BAVO

In Discursive Architecture, Boie reflects on the practice of BAVO: the collective he co-founded with Matthias Pauwels in the early 2000s. Boie sketches how the strategy of overidentification and its wider psychoanalytical framework allows us to explore new critical tactics. The interventions of BAVO tackled various urgent social issues, ranging from regional development, city marketing and art in the public space, to spatial management, humane detention and mental healthcare.
