Description
Summary:The connection between popular architecture and late-20th-century deconstructivism is examined. The design, improvisation, and technology can be linked. The focus is on architecture used for emergencies. This is examined through the consideration of the 1988 exhibition "Deconstructivist architecture" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Curated by Phillip Johnson and Mark Wigley, the exhibit featured painting, sculpture, photography, and books by Russian constructivists and architectural moderns and drawings by such architects as Frank Gehry.
