postmodern (fragmentation)

Postmodern architecture often breaks large buildings into several different structures and forms, sometimes representing different functions of those parts of the building. With the use of different materials and styles, a single building can appear like a small town or village.

Simplicity Isn’t Simple

Despite their simplicity, they’re infinitely complex in their ability to challenge and engage us. As Robert Morris pointed out, “Simplicity of shape does not necessarily equate with simplicity of experience.”

minimalist sculpture

The use of prefabricated industrial materials and simple, often repeated geometric forms together with the emphasis placed on the physical space occupied by the artwork led to some works that forced the viewer to confront the arrangement and scale of the forms. The viewer often faced with artworks that demanded a physical as well as a visual response.

cultural spaces play an important role in the success of a city and it’s inhabitants. They become the foundation to which those living and visiting in the area come together and communicate. They offer opportunities to embrace the history and culture of the area and bring the community together.
