Nonument is a groundbreaking inquiry into the fate and future of a wide range of threatened, neglected and celebrated buildings, styles and structures. The term Nonument describes architectures, public spaces and monuments that have undergone a process of transformation within which they have acquired a new meaning. Nonument sheds light on many of the most hotly contested debates in the areas of architecture and conservation, as well as the political and cultural forces shaping them. Employing this concept through organisation of art projects, interventions and interdisciplinary symposia, a series of diverse contributions emerged. The publication mirrors this polyphonic nature of approaches through three different interconnected parts.
