Summary:
"Encounter educational modernism" productively revisits the University of Lethbridge, Alberta, an iconic campus from the late 1960s by Canadian architect Arthur Erickson. The university is recognized for its architectural vision, its linear relationship with the spectacular landscape, and its dynamic spatial imagination of education as an expansive encounter. Designing the interdisciplinary university as a city within one building, including student housing, the campus stages public spaces of encounter to activate the concept of the student as a global citizen in a new world order. This sixties humanist imagination of the student shapes the spatial program of the architecture, a program which clashes with the current neoliberal view of the student as entrepreneur. The third book in Bitter and Weber's series on architecture and the educational complex, Encounter Educational Modernism is an artistic research project on the architecture of the University of Lethbridge and on modernist imaginations of education. It includes photographs and an introduction from the artists and contributions from University of Lethbridge professor Victoria Baster and poet and educator Jeff Derksen. The series Educational Modernism is published in cooperation with Camera Austria and will be continued with a focus on The Workers University Zagreb by Yugoslavian architects Radovan Niksic and Ninoslav Kucan.

Summary:
In this book, Anthony Vidler examines the work of four historians of architectural modernism and the ways in which their histories were constructed as more or less overt programs for the theory and practice of design in a contemporary context. Vidler looks at the historical approaches of Emil Kaufmann, Colin Rowe, Reyner Banham, and Manfredo Tafuri, and the specific versions of modernism advanced by their historical narratives. Vidler shows that the modernism conceived by Kaufmann was, like the late Enlightenment projects he revered, one of pure, geometrical forms and elemental composition; that of Rowe saw mannerist ambiguity and complexity in contemporary design; Banham's modernism took its cue from the aspirations of the futurists; and the "Renaissance modernism" of Tafuri found its source in the division between the technical experimentation of Brunelleschi and the cultural nostalgia of Alberti.
