History of Art and Modern Architecture (1851-1933) From the Crystal Palace to the Functional City

The history of art and architecture, considered as a closed corpus of specialization tica, in our opinion, is not t ra of ser. Thus, the present teaching program, which addresses the years of modernity, not only confronts a l art and architecture of its time, but also a l urban planning, literature, philosophy, economics and tica, from a markedly interpretative will. His main lloc of analysis is the 'big city', immersed in a phase of irreversible metropolisation: in urban environments such as London, PAR, Vienna, Berlin, Moscow, Chicago and New York, he highlights the richness of the relationships between the new and the old, in contexts in which the traces of the past coexist with an imagined future. 590 p.: 25x19 cm., paperback
