Summary:
Bernard Rudofsky was neither an architect nor a theorist in the usual sense. At the start of his career he completed a number of houses in Italy and Brazil, where he employed the formal language of the Modernists even though his writings appear to indicate he rejected their teachings. From the 1940s onwards, Rudofsky was primarily engaged as a critic and culture(...)

Summary:
Bernard Rudofsky was neither an architect nor a theorist in the usual sense. At the start of his career he completed a number of houses in Italy and Brazil, where he employed the formal language of the Modernists even though his writings appear to indicate he rejected their teachings. From the 1940s onwards, Rudofsky was primarily engaged as a critic and culture theorist who did not just write about architecture and design, but also on topics such as clothing, shoes, eating and bathing. The common element behind all of these activities, though, was the human body, and his lamentation of the loss of sensual awareness. This comprehensive show on Bernard Rudofsky provides detailed information on his life, his travels, his various activities as an architect, designer, exhibition-maker, author and theorist, as well as about the life he shared with his wife, Berta Rudofsky. Bernard Rudofsky made a large number of exhibitions during his widely travelled and cosmopolitan life, however there has never been an exhibition about him and his work. This exhibition, the first on Bernard Rudofsky in the world, has not been conceived as a classical retrospective. The aim is to make the cosmopolitan Rudofsky's complex architectural concept and concept of how to live accessible to a broad public, and to address his relevance for today.

Summary:
En 1726, Lord Burlington, fervent admirateur d'Andrea Palladio, architecte italien du XVIe siècle, entrepris de transformer radicalement une modeste demeure du XVIIe siècle donnant sur la Tamise à l'ouest de Londres. Il a voulu édifier une "villa" dans le sens plein du terme. Dix ans auparavant, Lord Burlington avait entièrement rénové son hôtel particulier à Londres en s'inspirant également de Palladio. Cette résidence, Burlington House, a contribué à lancer, avec Chiswick, un goût nouveau en architecture qui devait par la suite s'étendre à toute l'Angleterre et à l'Amérique du nord. Cette exposition, tout comme le catalogue qui l'accompagne, retrace l'élaboration d'un tout nouveau style architectural.
