EASTER TERMLECTURE PROGRAMME.
MODERNISM
These lectures set out to do two things. The first isto provide a general introduction to twentieth century architecture and design.The second is to look, in some degree of detail, at key buildings thatillustrate the different (often very different) architectural responses tomodernity. Such an approach, while broadly covering the ideas of an era, alsoallows for the exploration of specific works.
There is a third concern: to examine the interconnectednessof history, theory, andpractice.
