ARCH+ Wonders of the Modern World

$69 AUD · In stock

Sold by Perimeter Books, Thornbury

Modern architecture is underpinned by a strictly reductionist rationale that tries to 'explain' the causality behind every spatial phenomenon. The spiritual and ritual aspects of spatial production are regarded as atavistic and have been largely ignored by theorists.

What kinds of theories lend themselves to the study of these spaces? Wonders of the Modern World is a first, tentative attempt at an atlas of today’s ritual landscapes. Case
