ARCHITECTURE OF NORMAL IN THE DEMOCRACY CHAIN

 
 

“For a tome this sobering and cautionary, Architecture of Normal is a surprisingly zippy read. The graphic design, by Kaven himself, is dynamic and snazzy, from the fuchsia foiled cover and pink-edged pages to the counterposing of sepia-toned archival images with the vivid neons of Kaven’s own photographs and digital collages. He interrupts the historical narrative with welcome personal recollections of growing up in New Mexico and his ‘vision quests’ across the West from 2017 to 2019 as he was writing the book.”
