Installation Outpost Office: Public Utilities April 25-May 1, 2024 Public Utilities is an installation by architects Outpost Office at the Concéntrico Festival in Logroño, Spain. The installation has been supported by MAS Context. We are a platform that commissions and shares relevant ideas, proposals, and experiences that connect diverse disciplines and place. We want the work to respond to our current context while having a rigor and depth that makes it relevant through time and changing conditions. Current Issue Vigilantism In this issue we explore spaces of vigilantism, both historically and today. What are the spatial dimensions of vigilante encounters, segregation, violence, and exclusion, or conversely emancipation, liberation, and inclusion? Threshold, circulation, private vs. public, and other architectural delineations of space have become the subject of much controversy as footage of sexist and racist policing of these spaces emerge.
