Back to the City

Joseph Rykwert, Ken Livingstone, Nigel Coates, Denise Scott Brown
22 October 2008

Where early Modernism rejected the typical city, proposing its erasure and replacement by wholly new and different forms, post-war British Modernism celebrated the street life and structures of cities as found, starting a re-discovery of the urban that continues today. Speakers include architectural historian Joseph Rykwert, former Mayor of London Ken Livingstone and architects Nigel Coates and Denise Scott Brown.
