Anna Bronovitskaya’s second series of lectures on twentieth century architecture focuses on personalities.
Each lecture is devoted to one architect and explores various aspects of his work, starting from ideas and completed and unrealized projects, and finishing with his writings and teaching methods.
Reconstructing the network of relations between the architects and their teachers, students, clients, patrons and opponents, the course puts their work in context and shows how each architect’s ideas were informed by the political and economic challenges of the time, as well as by developments in other arts.
