Description
Based in a worldwide research of the 1950-70s Brutalist buildings, Ruth Verde Zeinœs book proposes a refreshed view on the Brutalist Connectionsœ, beyond the beaten tracks. While considering the canonical contributions, she undermines frozen stereotypes and opens up new paths, contributing to a broad contemporary revision of the subject. There are other surprises inside this compact book. In one flap, a booklet with a sharp-witted critical text on Brutalism and what it stands for, enriched by a most interesting foreword by Réjean Legault, highlighting the bookœs unique contribution. In the other flap, a bonus: half a dozen beautifully designed and exquisitely printed posters, interpreting Ruth Verde Zeinœs studies and conceptual propositions in a visual communicative way. Good things come in small packages: this book is a fresh approach to Brutalism, able to live up to the expectations of professors, scholars, students and modern architecture enthusiasts, with a daring and innovative presentation.
