Manage episode 374797738 series 2955221
Architectural historian Owen Hopkins has written or edited 16 books on architecture and his stories have appeared in Architectural Design, Dezeen, the Independent, and Blueprint, among many others. A graduate of the Courtauld Institute in London, Owen has served as architectural program curator at the Royal Academy of Arts, senior curator at Sir John Soane’s Museum, and now the director of Newcastle University’s new Farrell Centre. His latest book is about brutalism, those large concrete buildings many people love and King Charles and critics Roger Scruton and Dr. J. S. Curl and Justin Shubow hate hate hate hate hate. Did we mention hate?
As the book points out, Brutalist architecture inspires a passionate response, be it adulation or contempt. There’s lots of both to go around. Later on, music from some great architects, and their IT buddy, in a group called Poinsettia.
