Product Description

Product Description
Through a set of theoretical drawings developed between 1976 and 1981. Bernard Tschumi argues that the disjunction between spaces and their use, objects and events, being and meaning is no accident today.

So when she threatened to run and tell the authorities, they had no alternative but to stop her. And that′s when the second accident occurred ... the accident of murder ... They had to get out of the Park – quick. And the only thing which could help them was Architecture, beautiful trusting Architecture that they had used before, but never so cruelly or so selfishly ...
