A new monograph on architect Rick Mather has been published, exploring his complete works and the approach behind buildings such as his well-known museum and gallery projects. The book looks at how the American-born, London-based architect shaped the city's cultural architecture, and Wallpaper magazine has featured it in its architecture and design coverage.

'Asco: Without Permission' is drawing attention for its look at the Chicano art collective that emerged in 1970s Los Angeles. The book traces how the group's street performance and conceptual work challenged exclusion from mainstream galleries and influenced later generations of L.A. Chicano artists. Coverage is framing it as a timely herald of the collective's continuing legacy in contemporary art.
