Lissitzky : new materialism and diagrammatic living
Keane, Jondi 2011, Lissitzky : new materialism and diagrammatic living, in Lissitzky Space : New Materialist Experiments, Universiteit Utrecht, Utrecht, Netherlands.
Lissitsky's spatial and architectural work anticipates the contemporary fascination with expanded fields of activity that have resulted in transdisciplinary approaches to research and the role of practice-led research. This paper will discuss Lissitzky's suprematist perspective in relation to contemporary practices - under the rubric of the "diagram" - that re-imagine and enact the relationship between the built surround and embodied cognition. Lissitzky's work will serve as the starting point for a discussion of contemporary practitioners and theorists working across philosophy, cognitive science and built environment in order to draw out, through the act of diagramming, life on new terms.
