This Creaking Floor and All the Ceilings Below collapses the boundary between book and building, structuring Bart Lunenburg's artistic practice — photographs, drawings, scale models, film stills, installations — as an imaginary architecture to be inhabited rather than read.
About This Book
What if a book were navigated rather than read? That is the animating proposition of this labyrinthine volume, which organises Lunenburg's explorations of the built world into spatial sequences: foundations, corridors, sunlit rooms, enfilades, concealed doors, winding staircases, a woven wall. The result is less a monograph than an architectural promenade — a structure the viewer-visitor moves through. Reproducing work across multiple media, the book refuses any single disciplinary frame, sitting at the intersection of photography, installation art, and spatial practice. For those who think seriously about how architecture is represented and experienced, this is a genuinely unusual object.
