Liberty, equality, brutality: journeys into French brutalist architecture
France is not only a land of Gothic cathedrals but also boasts a rich architectural heritage from the second half of the 20th century. A number of architecturally significant buildings constructed during the period of intense post-war growth are now listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites or are protected as historical monuments. Whether it concerns newly built residences in the suburbs of Paris, cities completely rebuilt after destruction during World War II, new districts of major cities, entirely newly constructed tourist centers, or buildings by architect Le Corbusier. The aim of the lecture is to present some of these places and to place their emergence in the context of the contemporary society of the time.
