"But in postmodernity, we have seen architecture move substantially, with the help of digital technologies, in a different direction i.e., it has moved from form to image, from real to virtual, from art to appearance, from permanent to transitory, from thoroughness to superficiality, from the necessary to the futile, from function to performance, and we could go on and on.

Abstract
"But in postmodernity, we have seen architecture move substantially, with the help of digital technologies, in a different direction i.e., it has moved from form to image, from real to virtual, from art to appearance, from permanent to transitory, from thoroughness to superficiality, from the necessary to the futile, from function to performance, and we could go on and on. Still, I would like to say that, to briefly summarize and conclude, architecture has moved from expression to communication. This shift, I think, threatens to move it away from its main purpose, which is to be fundamentally a critical project in relation to the existing reality and simultaneously also a projection of a collectively co-divided desire to build a more equitable and beautiful reality".I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
