A Pelican Original.

Modern international architecture is a subject that arouses fury, malice or wit - but always disagreement. From the revolutionary Bauhaus, which excited a violent storm in Hitler’s Germany, to such modern achievements as the Sydney Opera House, Cumbernauld New Town, and the Lincoln Centre in New York, contention has involved both professional architects and the general public.

This illustrated survey of over fifty years of controversial architecture is a close critique of the many attempts at an aesthetic modern style. Employing generous extracts from original writings, Charles Jencks gives a fresh assessment of the designs of Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, Alvar Aalto and Mies van der Rohe. He examines the leading examples of recent American and British work - both ‘Camp’, ‘Pop’, and traditional in inspiration - and concludes with a new look at the ideals behind international architecture and their political significance today.
