17 Letters on Architecture

"In this book, literature and politics, theoretical thought and history, cinema and visual arts are called upon to defend architecture; they will do so by using cross-cutting themes such as fragmentation, duration, atopism, caricature, the aestheticization of daily life, social responsibility, the displacement of values, or the heritage of history: All these will be based on the contradictions experienced by the city and the region recently."
