Radical Post-Modernism, Paperback / softback Book

Radical Post-Modernism Paperback / softback

Part of the Architectural Design series

Paperback / softback

Description

In this latest issue of Architectural Design the guest editors are drawn, like the content, from contrasting tastes and generations.

Charles Jencks, the definer of Post-Modernism for thirty years, discusses some issues that have re-emerged today, while the young group of British architects, FAT, argues for a particular version of RPM.

An interview between Rem Koohaas and Charles Jencks discusses the influence of Post-Modernism while investigations of street art, graffiti and the 1980 Venice Biennale show that communication is at the heart of this radical strain of architecture. This issue brings together an unlikely and exciting pairing of guest-editors: internationally acclaimed critic Charles Jencks, whose name became synonymous with Post-modernism in the 80s, and the dynamic architectural group, FAT. Features work by: ARM, Atelier Bow Wow, Edouard Francois, FOA, Rem Koolhaas, John and Valerio Olgiati.
