Descripción del artículo del vendedor

'Resurfacing Modernism' Founded in 1950, Perspecta is the oldest and mostdistinguished of student-edited American architectural journals. Perspecta 32examines contemporary 'resurfacings' represented by the return of many forms andvalues associated with mid-twentieth-century modernism. By 1950, a plethora ofarchitectural practices were adapting earlier modernist experimentation to thechanging times. Numerous buildings of this period employed sleek surfaces of glass, metal, and stone to provide primary stylistic unity. More generally, mucharchitectural activity involved the quotation, manipulation, and modification ofpast appearances (surfaces) and discourses (spaces).Exceptional architecture of thelast decade--not only built work, but also historical and theoretical research-- hasagain been informed by such imagery and actions. For this reason, Perspecta 32explores the prospects of mid- century modernism in a postmodern age. The issueinvokes three different meanings of 'resurface': the reappearance of aspects of thepast as well as the layering of new meanings and interpretations onto acceptedconventions, and the peeling away of accrued patinas associated with modernism.While critical explorations of architectural modernism have frequently emphasizedsurface qualities, the recognition and analysis of surface as a subject with depthpresents itself now more than ever.Contributors to Perspecta 32 include, amongothers, George Baird, Peggy Deamer, Deborah Fausch, Michael Hays, Sandy Isenstadt, and Reinhold Martin. An exploration of mid-century architectural modernism in a postmodern age, and of surface as a subject with depth. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.…
