{"product_id":"repair-stories","title":"PRE-ORDER: Repair Stories","description":"\u003cp\u003eAustralia is at the frontline of the climate crisis. While species extinction and natural disasters of increasing intensity are met with glacial shifts in national climate policy, an important undercurrent of projects working to repair the Australian narrative are at play. These stories seek to repair a continent that continues to live under the structuring logic of colonial dispossession and extractive economies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRepair Stories\u003c\/em\u003e unpicks the concealing power of disrepair by giving life to the reparative projects already at work in the context of the Australian built environment – in the classroom, in practice, and in theory. Rather than presume that breakage is self-evident, the collection not only asks who repairs, but for whom do we repair? Whose responsibility are the patch-up jobs, the ongoing maintenance of worlds, the mending that is required? Does repair conserve or innovate? Is it contained to moments of breakdown or can it be practised in ongoing acts of care and maintenance? Featuring contributions from artists, architects, designers, and researchers, \u003cem\u003eRepair Stories\u003c\/em\u003e interrogates the methods, limitations, obligations and potential of repair, and proposes an environmental imperative: repair comes first!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRepair Stories\u003c\/em\u003e is edited by Hélène Frichot, Lucy Benjamin, and Virginia Mannering, and includes contributions from Sophie Adsett, Lucy Benjamin, Matthew Bird, Geoff Browne, Maria Bulmaga, Millie Cattlin, Jason Crow, Ying-Lan Dann, Charity Edwards, Alex Felson, Hélène Frichot, Xavier Ho, Desiree Ibinarriaga, Djirri Djirri, Tania Ivanka, Eduardo Kairuz, Damien Mittas, Jen Lynch, Nicholas Mangan, Virginia Mannering, Natalie Miles, Tom Morgan, Dasha Moschonas, Kim Munro, Dylan Newell, Mandy Nicholson, OFFICE, Caitlyn Parry, Camille Perry, Radicle Roots Naarm, Bella Singal, Michael Spooner, Sam Spurr, Georgia Stevenson, Eleanor Suess, Linda Tegg, Nina Tory-Henderson, Colby Vexler, Kristine Wallis, Louise Wright, and Alessandro Zambelli.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Perimeter Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130167271663,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/3927\/files\/RepairStories_1000px.jpg?v=1776988681","url":"https:\/\/www.perimeterbooks.com\/products\/repair-stories","provider":"Perimeter Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
