> The publication ?Under Construction? documents an event series of the 
> same
> name produced by the European Kunsthalle, a (still) virtual art 
> exhibition
> space in Cologne. Essays, lectures, discussions, and images focus on 
> current
> issues such as the politics of urban marketing and the different ways 
> of
> financing culture, as well as contemporary art movements and their 
> presentation
> in various spaces. Looking beyond the boundaries of Cologne, these 
> questions
> examine possible paths of action institutions might take today. The 
> book unites
> different academic and curatorial discourses, and conveys the spectrum 
> of
> fundamental issues that must be considered when establishing a new 
> contemporary
> art institution.
