Sandstrom, Sven
The hierarchy of exigiencies and the role of art in the urban environment
Compares art in the environment to vitamins in food; survey in Lund revealed that poorer people were less interested in art than the better off; yet the homes of poorer people were heavily decorated with ornaments and copies of artworks as a response to dreary and monotonous housing estates; references to sensory deprivation experiments and research; expressive quality is the social quality; call for singular expressiveness in the built environment.
