In \u003ci\u003eNail Houses or the Destruction of Lower Shanghai\u003c\/i\u003e, the artist gathers photographs of these isolated structures, often captured in the evening hours, when brightly lit windows convey a sense of the domestic comfort these homes provide for their owners, despite their condition. Bialobrzeski stands up for these stubborn homeowners, compelling the viewer to face uncomfortable questions and underscoring the right of every human being to a home and a feeling of security. Following the publication of \u003ci\u003eCase Study Homes\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eInformal Arrangements\u003c\/i\u003e, this striking volume completes the \u003ci\u003eHabitat\u003c\/i\u003e trilogy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag GmbH \u0026 Co KG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50096702161136,"sku":"9783775738293","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783775738293","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
