~ Dr. Eugenia Fratzeskou's new book, "Visualising Boolean Set Operations: Real and Virtual Boundaries in Contemporary Site-specific Art" was published in December 2009; paperback: 268 pages; Publisher: LAP Lambert Academic Publishing; ISBN-10: 383833051X and ISBN-13: 978-3838330518. The latest forms of site-specific and digital art have emerged from artists’ interest in new relationships between physical and virtual spaces, as inspired by the contemporary interdisciplinary understanding of space as an uncontrollably changing informational substance. Such developments necessitate new spatial research strategies for advancing site-specific art. The present study develops pioneering methodologies for enabling that advancement. The existing modes of digital visualisation, site-specificity, virtual and mixed realities in art, design and science are radically challenged, as the built boundaries of architecture ‘unfold’ to reveal a paradoxical hybrid space in a site-specific virtual environment.
