"Bombing of Gaza has damaged or destroyed more than 100 heritage sites, NGO report reveals" by Sarvy Geranpayeh (The Art Newspaper).

"The human cost of the bombardment of the Gaza Strip in the war with Israel is well documented. What is less well known is how many historic buildings and sites have also been destroyed."

"Several of Gaza’s museums have also been destroyed or damaged. Rafah Museum, located in southern Gaza, published two videos on its Facebook page showing that the building has partially collapsed. Yasin says Palestinian officials have also received reports of significant damage caused to Al Qarara Cultural Museum and Deir Al Balah museum."

The application deadline for SAH's 2024 Method Acts is coming up on November 27. Method Acts is an annual series of events exploring alternative and non-traditional research methods used by graduate students and emerging scholars in architectural history and adjacent fields.

CONTESTED HERITAGE
IN CATHEDRALS AND CHURCHES (2021).

An interesting document to see how the problem of contested heritage is addressed by the Church of England (with its limitations and contradictions).

JSTOR Daily is still letting me write for them - yay! - and this month I discuss architectural history's lack of effort in recording queer spaces.

"The dominant heteroview of architectural history means we may lose our queer spaces and their histories before we even know they exist."

📺 O Xurxo Ayán ha vuelto a G24 para una nueva temporada de Zig Zag.

Ayer, habló del proyecto , en curso en , que estudia la arqueología y arquitectura de los escenarios de las fiestas de pueblo "para lograr unha mellor compresión da relación entre forma, tamaño e localización destas estruturas e a evolución da festa e das orquestras e formacións musicais que participan nelas."

This picture book is truly gorgeous : based on the true story of Mildred, Harriet, Brenda, and Wilma Moody, this non fiction book shows the incredible work realized by the sisters in Southern California in the 30s.
