Beyond Utopia - Changing Attitudes In American Architecture

Chronicles the rise of the 'Post Modern' movement in architecture. Explains how this movement evolved in reaction to the Modernist's vision of a glittering urban utopia of steel and glass boxes. Illustrates the characteristics of avant garde architecture beginning in the 70's through an analysis of the works of Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown, Michael Graves, Frank Gehry, Peter Eisenman, and Philip Johnson.
