520 _aStephen Willats: Between Buildings and People explores the effect of the modernist built environment on people and how they express themselves creatively as individuals. Willats work as an artist has been concerned for over thirty years with an exploration into social relations and the polemics of contemporary life in urban society. The book presents a series of interactive projects from Berlin, London and New York combining photographs and interviews with those who live within the new reality of modernist architcture. The reader is introduced to a host of unforgettable characters who express alternative ways of maintaining their sense of identity and self-worth in an often hostile environment. It is a unique and humanistic view of architecture where people themselves are the starting point rather than buildings. As well as providing what could become an indispensable document about how people live, Willats' work is an important attempt to define the social role of art and to reflect the transience and fluidity of developments in culture.
