Synopsis of The Space of Appearance
En 'The Space of Appearance', George Baird explora la conexión entre la historia, la teoría y la polémica en el contexto del posmodernismo y la crítica de la arquitectura posmoderna durante las últimas cuatro décadas. El autor revela el fracaso general de estas teorías en el desarrollo de una arquitectura políticamente comprometida y que afirme la esfera pública. La obra destaca la importancia de construir un 'espacio de aparición' público, amplio y diverso, que dé cabida a todos. Baird analiza la historia reciente de las ideas que influyen en este campo, recuperando influencias e ideas omitidas en las historias convencionales del modernismo, ofreciendo una comprensión constructiva e informada de los dilemas actuales.
