As the subject of earnest discussion, the meaning of space reaches far beyond the horizon of a single discipline. Lukas Feiriss has assembled a collection of international contributions for Space Matters, a publication of the space & design strategies study program of the Univeristy of Art and Design, Linz, Austria to create an inspiring expansion of the contemporary discourse on space. The publication addresses cultural resarchers and readers in creative professions – architects, artists, curators, scientists and students in all the related fields as well as those members of a broader audience that are interested in the incorporation of space and the pratices with which it is designed in cultural, social and humanities-oriented contexts.

Raum eröffnet als Gegenstand ernsthafter Diskussion einen Bedeutungshorizont, der weit über die Grenzen einer einzelnen Disziplin hinausreicht. Vor diesem Hintergrund versammelt das von Lukas Feireiss für den Studiengang raum&designstrategien der Kunstuniversität Linz herausgegebene Buch Space Matters internationale Beiträge, welche eine inspirierende Erweiterung der zeitgenössischen Auseinandersetzung mit Raum markieren. Die Publikation richtet sich an Kulturwissenschaftler und Kulturschaffende – Architekten, Künstler, Kuratoren, Wissenschaftler und Studierende aller verwandten Fächer sowie an eine breite Öffentlichkeit, die sich für die Einbeziehung zeitgenössischer raumschaffender Praktiken in kultur-, sozial- und geisteswissenschaftliche Kontexte interessieren.
