Of all the arts, architecture
is the most public. By definition, it is the artistic medium we all have to
live with. It is around us and surrounds us. In general, it is the most
expensive of the arts. It’s hard to imagine any sculpture or painting
costing the millions that corporate headquarters or symphony halls cost. And
more than any of the other arts, architecture often embodies the values and
purposes of its sponsors. The skyscraper signaled the modernity of its
corporate sponsor just as a Gothic cathedral pointed to both the importance
of the church and the wealth and pride of the medieval city that built it.
This series of slide lectures
will deal first with Lima’s architecture and then with contemporary
architecture in the western world. Discussion will also be encouraged.
