Beskrivning
Engelsk text.
Against Architecture is a passionate and erudite charge against the celebrities of the current architectural world, the “archistars”. According to Franco La Cecla, architecture has lost its way and its true function, as the archistars use the cityscape to build their brand, putting their stamp on the built environment with little regard for the public good. Informed by the works of Robert Byron, Mike Davis, Rebecca Solnit, and other masters of urban and landscape writing, Against Architecture is a work of insight on resisting the tyranny of the planners and finding the spirit of place.
