- Description
- Drawing from theoretical explorations of the neo-avant-garde in recent architectural criticism, this paper investigates a critical and paradigmatic shift that occurred in architectural production in the 1980s. Focussing on the high-profile Deconstructivist Architects exhibition of 1988, and operating within the historical framework set up by Peter Bürger in the same period, the paper engages with reception theory as a model to understand more deeply the relationship between architecture and audience. Central to this is the expansion of the architectural work beyond the domain of physical built works and into a multi-disciplinary hybridised field of creative production, which has its origins in the historical avant-garde.
