Description

Critiquing the Modern in Architecture by Jaimini Mehta offers a profound examination of the ideological and metaphysical foundations of modern architecture. Developed over forty years, this collection of essays provides a fresh perspective by moving beyond traditional Eurocentric definitions. Mehta examines architectural modernism through the lens of a non-western thought-world, offering a unique way to understand the movement. The book is organized into three distinct themes to guide the reader through complex theoretical territory. The section titled Rethinking Modernity investigates the ideological foundations of the modernity and modernism binary. Additionally, The Idea of Architecture explores the timeless and invariable aspects of the field. This work is an essential resource for students, academics, and professionals interested in architecture criticism and theory, providing a deep look at how modernism functions outside of Western-only frameworks.
