Description


In modernism and the critique of modernism there emerge a number of themes. Three of these themes will be briefly investigated in this course. These themes are technology, representation and feminism. The reason for addressing these three themes is that they comprise a common ground between architecture and other current concerns in a more general cultural sense, especially in politics. Each theme is accompanied by readings that offer a range of arguments among which students will apply critical discourse in order to establish their own critical orientation.
