Pheonix Architecture Art Regeneration charts the extraordinary master plan for the regeneration of the city of Coventry. Proving the resurgence of urbanism and democratised public space, MacCormac Jamieson Prichard and the arts commissioning agency Modus Operandi have developed a spectacular concept integrating archtiect's and artist's interventions to create a series of linked spaces across Coventry. Pheonix offers a detailed insight into the conception and realisation of MJP/MO's architectural and public art strategy and effecttively illustrates the social and topographical challenges of a site marred by the industrial revolution, war and 1960s drabness. Working with artists such as Jochen Gerz and Susanna Heron, MJP have produced an intricate urban layer of scuptural and ephemeral elements that both communicate with and reconcile past and present. Pheonix documents this dialogue while providing an inspirational guide to regeneration through the combination of architecture and public art.
