Résumé:
This book brings together a selection of 20 works situated in Porto, Gaia and Matosinhos, which aims to propose new ways of interpreting an architecture produced with constructive and material affinities associated with Brutalism. The editorial and research project allowed the development of different levels of critical approach to the object of study. Álvaro Siza talked about Brutalism and certain questions that arose during the project. Ben Highmore visited some of the selected works and wrote an essay from a cultural perspective. Tiago Lopes Dias and Alexandra Areia wrote essays using 10 works selected in each century. Pedro Treno focused on each of the 20 works and wrote small critical framework texts. Francisco Ascensão and Luca Bosco presented a photo reportage on the 20 works, according to a sensibility arising from the Brutalist language.
