Pier Vittorio Aureli: Processes of abstraction in modern architecture

Episode 105 of ⁠A is for Architecture⁠ (http://tinyurl.com/mrxusjv4)  is with Pier Vittorio Aureli, writer and educator, and founder and principal of Dogma (https://www.dogma.name/) , the much-acclaimed architecture and research group founded in 2002 by Pier Vittorio and Martino Tattara. We talk about Pier Vittorio's 2023 book, Architecture and Abstraction (https://mitpress.mit.edu/978026254523...) , published by MIT Press. Architecture and Abstraction, so the gloss has it, ‘argues for a reconsideration of abstraction, its meanings, and its sources. Although architects have typically interpreted abstraction in formal terms—the purposeful reduction of the complexities of design to its essentials, [this book] presents abstraction in architecture not as an aesthetic tendency but as a movement that arises from modern divisions of labor and consequent social asymmetries’, and the outcome of emergent socio-technical, economic and political realities. In the face of the AI-ification of the public imagination and, increasingly, material culture itself, this argument has great pertinence for design in and of the contemporary commonwealth.  Pier Vittorio Aureli teaches at Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (https://people.epfl.ch/pier.aureli?la...) (EPFL), and can be found on through Dogma on Instagram (  / dogma.name  ) . Thanks for listening. +  Music credits: ⁠Bruno Gillick (  / user-229193274  )
