ABSTRACT

“In 1969 Hollein petrified Copenhagen beneath a magma of concrete from which spires and bell towers emerged. Archizoom fractured Bologna with a fault line sketching out ‘abstract’ diagonals that would later figure in Daniel Libeskind’s Line of Fire project for Berlin, and framed the Florentine Duomo within the gigantic cube of a Residential Edifice. Superstudio inundated Florence beneath the water of a touristic lake.” Dominique Rouillard, “‘Radical’ Architecture”
