Sommario/riassunto |
|
Architectures: Modernism and After surveys the history of the building from the advent of industrialization to the cultural imperatives of the present moment. Brings together international art and architectural historians to consider a range of topics that have influenced the shape, profile, and aesthetics of the built environment. Presents crucial ""moments"" in the history of the field when the architecture of the past is made to respond to new and changing cultural circumstances. |
