Course Description:
This course surveys broad developments in architecture, design, and urban planning as they relate to social, political, and cultural changes between roughly 1900 and the present. With a focus on Western Europe and America, topics include Viennese Modernism, the legacy of the Arts and Crafts movement, the Bauhaus, the International Style, the birth of Modernism, Brutalism, Postmodernism, and the architecture of the recent past. Close attention will be given to figures including Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, Walter Gropius, Robert Venturi, and Frank Gehry, but the class will also include discussion of important practitioners who have historically been omitted from architectural studies. |
