peter eisenman / deconstructavism


...was randomly searching the intergoogle, looking up some of the old architects i used to have a fondness for, and stumbled upon this unbelievable concept model by architect peter eisenman, the master of the often controversial and highly confrontational "deconstructivist" movement of architecture, (of whom frank gehry, rem koolhaus, zaha hadid and daniel libeskind are also considered exponents) which was largely inspired by the philosphophy of derrida, and the geometrical imbalances of russian constravism and minimalism (two of my most favourite art/architecture movements!). sadly, i have no idea what this building is or any other information about it, just two ridiculously amazing images, in his distinctly unique style.
