Meer over het boek

Exploring the intersection of architecture and radical thought, this discourse highlights the innovative works emerging from Graz and Vienna since the late 1970s. Eeva-Liisa Pelkonen examines how these designs challenge modern architectural norms, embracing themes of fiction and fantasy while engaging with philosophical ideas from thinkers like Heidegger and Derrida. The analysis encompasses significant architects and firms, situating their contributions within broader cultural and historical contexts, thus revealing the profound impact of this avant-garde movement on contemporary architectural theory.
