| Inhoud: |
The reciprocity between affirmation and criticism is argued in this essay, in opposition to assumptions about either's primacy. This mutuality is shown to give rise to a conceptual and practical deliberation that proportions what is inherited in architecture and culture to an imagined sense of what ought to be. The former is the subject of criticism, the latter of affirmation. The aim of the text is to avoid the alternative between narrowly regressive or progressive ideas of a better world. When the alternative is avoided 'critical practice' emerges as a mode of participation in contemporary culture that tolerates neither emancipation nor complicity. Architects from the 15th and 20th centuries are examined-Michelangelo, Le Corbusier. and Vittorio Gregotti—but broader cultural phenomena, such as contemporary consumerism, the preservation movement, and artistic autonomy are considered. |
