"This book presents unusual projects, techniques and places that seek to materialize a vision of the contemporary city with which to recycle established beliefs about architecture and the role of the architect. Madrid appears as a metaphor of the world.

Robert Venturi, along with his partners John Rauch and Denise Scott Brown, have from the beginning been leading exponents of Post Modernism, and have pioneered polemic stylistic innovations in architecture and design, often combining traditional and modern. Venturi's seminal Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture and Learning from Las Vegas, acknowledged as two of the most important writings on architecture this century, re-shaped the sensibilities of a whole generation of architects and opened the way to a freer, more eclectic architecture. But it is in VRSB's built works that this theory is reified into practice, and their latest commission to design the extension to the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square places VRSB once more in the forefront of architectural debate. -- from book cover.
