Changes in Understanding of the City
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing modernism as it applies to LeCorbusier and Ebenezer Howard, followed by the post-war critiques of modernism by Venturi, Superstudio and Rem Koolhaas. Of these three, Venturi's observations have the greatest basis in real life for real people. Superstudio imposes unrealistic values and Koolhaas chooses to go along with the masses, many of whom have no values at all. Peace and comfort are not part of either equation; peace and comfort also were missing from the modernist designs. Some of the visual effects are worth keeping, but the context and the imposition of values were not. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
