Abstract:

This Thesis investigates the impact and influence of the public art-curator to engender place-identity. It focuses on the connected relationship between curating, public art, and place identity to develop a contemporary understanding of the challenges, drivers, players and intersections that determine spatial and custodial narratives. Through the theories of placemaking and brand marketing and the review of the art and cultural policies of New York, Singapore, and Qatar, it draws upon the practice in curating public art.

Abstract:

Gentrification, the contentious terrain where neo-liberalism meets housing, has been widely explored in urban geography, with few under researched areas remaining. This thesis fills one such gap by focusing on artists - a group who have been historically noted to contribute at all stages of gentrification, from triggering it to ultimately being displaced themselves. With increased consciousness of the process opening up their role in a new direction, artists are also more recently engaging in fervent activism and resistance in trying to control the aggressive spread of gentrification.

Abstract:

A member of America's established cultural elite, John Cotton Dana (1856-1929) aimed to wrest cultural and economic authority from the nouveau riche through his role as the first director of the Newark Museum. In his favorite exhibition, "New Jersey Textiles," he encouraged local immigrant laborers to improve the design of goods that he simultaneously prompted middle-class women to purchase. He imagined that, as a result, Newark's manufacturing sector would blossom without nouveau-riche involvement; the region would soon rival its new-money neighbor, New York City. Under Dana's supervision, Ja

Abstract:

Garbage landfills are at the heart of debates over sustainable urban development. Landfills are the cheapest waste-disposal method, but have specific environmental problems and are a common target for citizen activism such as environmental justice and Not In My Backyard (NIMBY) protests. As a means of covering up the scars at recently closed landfills, it has been common for cities to redevelop landfills into parks. The ongoing redevelopment projects at New York City's Fresh Kills, Greater Toronto's

Abstract:

Os modos, a um só tempo estéticos e políticos, pelos quais a arte se apropria do espaço urbano, adquirem na contemporaneidade enorme relevância não somente por permitir o questionamento do fazer artístico e de sua relação com o sistema das artes, mas também por ser a inscrição estética geradora de pensamento sobre a cidade, contribuindo para a sua produção. O confronto entre a criatividade e a transgressão inerente ao trabalho artístico e os limites e constrangimentos impostos pelas outras esferas, neste caso, pela dinâmica da própria cidade, torna-se, desta forma, ingrediente fundamental para

Cette thèse a pour objet d’étude les processus d’élaboration de nouveaux ballets dans les compagnies de répertoire. À travers une enquête internationale, elle se propose d’interroger dans une perspective sociologique la situation de création spécifique qui est celle des chorégraphes de formation classique, insérés dans des institutions vouées principalement à l’entretien d’un répertoire d’œuvres existantes. Leurs trajectoires professionnelles et les différences genrées qu’elles mettent en évidence y sont élucidées, ainsi que la dimension fondamentalement collective d’un travail artistique qui

Abstract:

The aim of this dissertation is to understand and analyze the museum location decision, defined as where museum founders choose to establish or relocate their institution. The empirical case is the museum population of New York City from 1910-2010. In three substantive chapters, I explore this complex decision process from the organizational-level, the population-level, and the audience-level. In the first chapter, I argue that the museum location decision has evolved over the past century, and has experienced three major paradigm shifts. Out of each era, a new model of the museum location dec

Abstract:

abstract: Informal public transport is commonplace in the developing world, but the service exists in the United States as well, and is understudied. Often called "dollar vans", New York's commuter vans serve approximately 120,000 people every day (King and Goldwyn, 2014). While this is a tiny fraction of the New York transit rider population, it is comparable to the total number of commuters who ride transit in smaller cities such as Minneapolis/St Paul and Phoenix. The first part of this study reports on the use of commuter vans in Eastern Queens based on a combination of surveys and a rider

Abstract:

Between 1895 and 1925, social movements in New York City focused on improving the lives of the urban working classes. Progressive reformers maintained that the environment of the city, growing industry, and systems of exploitation threatened the personal sovereignty of the individual. I argue that the visual culture of the period marshaled documentary photography and styles of realism to comprehend such systemic problems through familiar, recognizable forms. By visualizing overcrowding and oppressive labor conditions on working-class bodies, these realities could be comprehended and reformed.
