The United States newest military service, the U.S. Space Force (USSF), has a unique opportunity to take advantage of the widening range of commercial capabilities and create a new culture and new management processes to respond to the growing challenges presented by potential adversaries in space. The authors describe an unconstrained ?clean sheet? approach to space acquisition for USSF designed around the new service's unique mission.
German artist Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948) is best known for his pioneering work in fusing collage and abstraction, the two most transformative innovations of twentieth-century art. Considered the father of installation art, Schwitters was also a theorist, a Dadaist, and a writer whose influence extends from Robert Rauschenberg and Eva Hesse to Thomas Hirschhorn. But while his early experiments in collage and installation from the interwar period have garnered much critical acclaim, his later work has generally been ignored. In the first book to fill this gap, Megan R. Luke tells the fascinating, even moving story of the work produced by the aging, isolated artist under the Nazi regime and during his years in exile. Combining new biographical material with archival research, Luke surveys Schwitters' experiments in shaping space and the development of his Merzbau, describing his haphazard studios in Scandinavia and the United Kingdom and the smaller, quieter pieces he created there. She makes a case for the enormous relevance of Schwitters' aesthetic concerns to contemporary artists, arguing that his later work provides a guide to new narratives about modernism in the visual arts. These pieces, she shows, were born of artistic exchange and shaped by his rootless life after exile, and they offer a new way of thinking about the history of art that privileges itinerancy over identity and the critical power of humorous inversion over unambiguous communication. Packed with images, Kurt Schwitters completes the narrative of an artist who remains a considerable force today.

Historic Shenandoah: Rediscovering Miami's NeighborhoodsVolume 1: Main ReportMiami is best known for its beaches, tropical scenery, skyscrapers, and luxury condominiums. Although Miami is one of the nation's youngest metropolises, it has experienced tremendous growth due to land speculation, government policy, and immigration. Despite Miami's significance as an international city, little has been written about how its neighborhoods have evolved and adapted to these changes, slowly changing and sometimes completely reinventing themselves. This series of books are a testament to Miamians' resilience and adaptability through an in-depth look at the City's neighborhoods, residents that lived in them, and the events that shaped them. Shenandoah is a neighborhood at the heart of Miami. It is geographically central and importantly, it is high and dry on a ridge. It is a great example of today's inner-city neighborhoods that began as suburbs of Downtown Miami along the famous SW 8th Street, also known as Tamiami Trail or Calle Ocho. It is a neighborhood with a demographically diverse history, home to many religions, ethnicities, languages, and economic statuses, with a mix of apartment buildings, duplexes, houses, and garage apartments, all arranged together in harmonious streetscapes. Shenandoah's architecture is a great example of early climate adaptation with large porches and windows that allow for cross breezes and natural lighting. It is fanciful with arches, elaborate chimneys, clay tiles roofs, and textured coral rock. For many residents, it reminds them of places they grew up, from old Cuba to the Midwest. It is an amalgamation of memories carefully orchestrated to fit harmoniously in a tropical setting. Shenandoah has recently become more popular as an alternative to high-density living close to the Downtown and Brickell districts, receiving more and more attention and investment. Trees are being planted, pocket parks created, streetscapes are being planned and completed and many homes are being renovated and altered for new families to move in, transforming original bungalows into new homes with modern convenience. This newfound interest and appreciation of all that Shenandoah inherently possesses: walkability, transit access, corner stores, parks, schools, libraries, and churches, is changing the neighborhood once again with new demographics and reinvestment.This book is a memory of Miami's Shenandoah neighborhood: what it was and what it is. Most importantly, it is a tool for property owners, residents, civic associations, City staff, elected officials, and State agencies to understand Shenandoah's history, its character, and what makes it special. As Shenandoah evolves, it is important that changes improve this unique community through the protection of its character and the celebration of its unique heritage. It is our hope that this book will help Miamians learn and appreciate our unique city, our neighborhoods, and our people.

Historic Silver BluffRediscovering Miami's NeighborhoodsThe story of Miami's Silver Bluff neighborhood is defined by the ancient, the ephemeral, and the modern. Silver Bluff's namesake is the ancient geology of Miami's coastline, the oolitic limestone outcroppings that rise above Biscayne Bay and are the highest ground in South Florida. The streets and infrastructure of Silver Bluff were forged by an ephemeral municipality, the Town of Silver Bluff, that existed for a mere four years before being subsumed by the hyper-growth of the City of Miami in 1925. Silver Bluff is perhaps best known today for its abundance of well-built, beautifully designed, 1930s-era small homes. These homes were the product of sweeping housing reform by the Federal Government under the Federal Housing Act of 1934. Silver Bluff benefited from the resulting flood of government-insured mortgages. More than half of its housing stock was built between 1937 and 1939 as single-family homes with a unique architectural expression of Mediterranean and Moderne styles. Silver Bluff is loved for its convenient, urban location near Miami's downtown and Biscayne Bay, while maintaining a stable, predominantly single-family neighborhood with a mature tree canopy, well-maintained homes, and tidy lawns.Prepared for: Dade Heritage Trust, Inc. and the Florida Department of State, Division of Historical ResourcesThis project was funded in part by the Florida Department of State, Division of Historical Resources, Dade Heritage Trust, and The Villagers, Inc.
Allapattah: 17th Avenue Property DirectoryRediscovering Miami's NeighborhoodsIn 2019, Dade Heritage Trust partnered with The Allapattah Collaborative to bring attention to the unique character of this thriving Dominican neighborhood, and to support the small, locally-owned businesses along 17th Avenue. Along with Mileyka Burgos and Manuel Ochoa, Dade Heritage Trust has supported efforts for 17th Avenue to become part of a nation-wide network of Main Street programs. Established by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Main Street America is a network of large and small communities who understand that their locally-owned, walkable commercial areas (often the Main Street in small towns) are an important source of community identity and economic resilience. Based on an approach of preservation and supporting community self-sufficiency, "Main Street empowers communities to set their own destinies.Prepared for: Dade Heritage Trust, Inc. and the Florida Department of State, Division of Historical ResourcesThis project was funded in part by the Florida Department of State, Division of Historical Resources, Dade Heritage Trust, and The Villagers, Inc.
