BLOOMSBURY OPEN COLLECTIONS?
A new open access model for books
BLOOMSBURY OPEN COLLECTIONS is a collective-action approach to funding open access (OA) books. Through this model, we aim to make OA publication available to a wider range of authors by spreading the cost across multiple organisations, while providing additional benefits to participating libraries. By prioritising authors that are often underrepresented in scholarly publishing, including early-career and unaffiliated researchers and those based in/writing about low- and lower-middle- income countries, we hope to engage a more diverse author base, bringing their work to a wider global audience.
THE BOOKS
Following our 2023 pilot we have expanded our 2024-25 offering to three collections of 20 titles each in:
• African Studies & International Development
• Environment & Climate Change
• Gender & Sexuality
BENEFITS TO LIBRARIES
• Contribute to a progressive OA funding model that aims to make 60 research titles available open access immediately on publication at no cost to the authors
• Receive guaranteed perpetual access to the 20 titles in each Open Collection you participate in
• Receive 1 year’s access to ~150 backlist titles in related areas for each Open Collection you participate in
• Be publicly acknowledged on our website

Bloomsbury Studies in Modern Architecture
Another Modernism
Home Economics and the Design of Domestic Space in the US, 1900-1960
Anna Myjak-Pycia, ETH Zürich, Switzerland
Targeting an important gap in design history, Another Modernism sheds light on the unacknowledged contribution of home economists to 20th-century modernist design In analysing the home economists’ conception of space, the book argues that their focus on the user’s tactility constituted an alternative model of modern architecture – a popular and largely rural modernism which focused on the specificity of the female user and her personal experience of the domestic interior Based on little-known archival material, and with an emphasis on (mostly) female researchers and users/occupants, it will appeal to architects, design historians, and anyone interested in gender, women, and disability studies

Scandinavian Avant-Garde Architecture

Espen Johnsen, University of Oslo, Norway
This book tells the story of PAGON (Progressive Architects Group Oslo Norway) for the first time, offering a definitive account of the group’s projects, buildings, and approach Despite its individual members achieving international recognition, PAGON has been overlooked in the history of modern architecture This book demonstrates how PAGON’s architecture constitutes a unique continuity between late 1930s Scandinavian functionalism and the modern movement in the US, and an important transitional stage before the emergence of the better-known neo-avant-garde groups within CIAM and Team 10

The Minimum Dwelling Revisited
CIAM's Practical Utopia (1928–31)
Aristotle Kallis, Keele University, UK
This book provides an intellectual history of the modernist ‘minimum dwelling’, exploring how early modernism saw mass housing as a primary vehicle for achieving the utopian transformation of society It reappraises the often-overlooked 2nd and 3rd CIAM conferences (1929-31), revealing them both as milestones in the organisation's annals and as seminal moments in the history of interwar modernism Serving as a corrective to the overemphasis on CIAM IV and the Athens Charter, the book is essential reading for scholars researching urban design during the interwar period

Design and the Vernacular Interpretations for Contemporary Architectural Practice and Theory
Edited by Paul Memmott, John Ting, Tim O’Rourke & Marcel Vellinga
This book explores the intersection between vernacular architecture, local cultures, and modernity and globalization Focusing on Australasia and Oceania, it examines the relevance of vernacular architecture to contemporary urban planning and architectural design, placing this against a contextual background of rapid political, economic, technological, social and environmental changes including globalization, exchanges of people, finance, material culture, and digital technologies Sixteen chapters by architects, designers and theorists, including Indigenous writers, provide valuable case studies and lessons for architecture in other global regions and challenge assumptions about vernacular architecture being anachronistic and static, instead demonstrating how it can shape contemporary architecture, nation building and cultural identities

Soon-Tzu Speechley, University of Melbourne, Australia

Polish Modernism and Jewish Identity
The Art of Henryk Streng, 1924-1960
Piotr Slodkowski, Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, Poland
Translated by Eliza Rose
This book uncovers the changing artistic landscape of Poland between the 1920s and 1950s, through the work of Jewish-Polish painter and Holocaust survivor, Henryk Streng (Marek Wlodarski) (1903-1960) Extraordinary for his aesthetic innovation during the two major traumas of 20th-century European history, the Holocaust and Stalinism, Streng’s work disrupted the established notions of 20th-century Polish art, while making the case for an internationalized history of European Modernism – as demonstrated by this book for the first time.

Prehistoric Pictures and American Modernism
Abstract Art at MoMA 1937-1939
Elke Seibert, Independent Scholar, France
This book illuminates an, until now, disregarded aspect of American art history: the influence of prehistoric rock paintings exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art in 1937 on members of the New York School, such as Willem and Elaine de Kooning, Arshile Gorky, Stuart Davis, John Graham, Josef Albers, and The American Abstracts Artists group. The exhibition functioned as a catalyst for the reception of archaic art in North America, and Prehistoric Pictures and American Modernism demonstrates that contemporary debates about the modernity of prehistoric art form part of the discourse on ‘Primitivism ’

Sampling and Site-Specific Practice in Contemporary Art
Margot Bouman, The New School, New York, USA
In the early 20th century, copying, cutting, and pasting entered Western European avant-garde art through collage and readymades, as artists used found objects to create new meaning This book examines how these techniques have evolved in contemporary art, featuring artists like Andrea Fraser, Douglas Gordon, and Isaac Julien. It explores how they sample fragments of culture—from television to the internet—using quotation, reenactment, and replication. Discussing themes such as queer and race theory, postproduction, and gender fluidity, the book offers a fresh framework for understanding sampling as a key form in 21st-century art and visual culture

Embodiment, Performance and Practice
Edited by Anna Pigott, Swansea University, UK, Owain Jones, Bath Spa University, UK & Ben Parry, Bath Spa University, UK

Is resistance and regeneration even possible in the face of escalating global environmental crises? Bringing together accounts of how artists and scholars are creatively responding to ecocide, this book re-evaluates the relationships between creativity, ecological crisis and political change It highlights the growth of alternative approaches across the arts and within society, and develops an original conception of creativity as an antiecocide endeavour by using examples from conventional art settings and daily life

Community Formation and the Poetics of Resistance
Kristen Kreider & James O'Leary
This open access book presents a range of global, practice-based, case studies that conceptualise community formation in times of social and political turbulence as a process that emerges through local political activism and resistance A truly interdisciplinary work at the intersection of visual culture, the built environment and poetics, it explores these individual acts of resistance and argues for a necessary inter-relation between politics, ethics and aesthetics In doing so, it sets out to conceive a new poetics of ‘us’ and demonstrate how the formation of community in and through resistance, on a planetary scale, has the potential to introduce new models of social and cultural interaction
