"El ‘símbolo’ frente a la ‘forma’: la influencia del arte en la arquitectura tras el movimiento moderno "

Abstract

When defining spaces for social and community life Modern architecture and later ‘New Monumentality’ defended the synthesis of the arts and demanded a close relationship between architect, painter, and sculptor. However, Team X disagreed as much with the movements’ formal principles as they did with ‘New Monumentality’s’ symbolic principles. Holding a position against these movements’ universalist and autonomous approaches, Team X clarified the symbolic complexity that the second artistic avant-guard movement introduced and that once again influenced architecture.
