FLASH ART VOLUMES - CRISIS FORMALISM
ABEL NILE NEW YORK GUEST EDITS THE 2025 ISSUE OF FLASH ART VOLUMES

Crisis is before us, blurred. Formalism is far from self evident, many understandingly have divested entirely. Architecture describes the world well as a medium of absorption– a test strip in the streams of crisis convergence. What’s been given to us are tanked forms and failed hypothesis. Data’s dark world and an increasingly latent reality place us out of linear timelines. As crises compound architecture finds itself at a crossroads: should it attempt to coordinate this new complexity or confront us with collapse? Crisis Formalism explores this tension. We edited this issue as a dossier on Form and Crisis, attempting to reconstitute architectural form by positioning it within crisis rather than in response.
