"The Emperor Has No Clothes" is an old adage, but, in the sad case of Deconstructivism, it is absolutely appropriate, as Deconstructivism is really nothing more than Modernism in a new guise. Modernists, notably the Bauhäusler, aimed for the clean slate, jettisoning everything that went before. Yet, at times, they claimed links with antecedents to give a spurious historical ancestry to their aims and creations. These questionable links and precedents are now being claimed for the works of Deconstructivists by sympathetic architects and their supporters.

Thinking through object-oriented ontology—and the work of architects such as Rem Koolhaas and Zaha Hadid—to explore new concepts of the relationship between form and function Object-oriented ontology has become increasingly popular among architectural theorists and practitioners in recent years. Architecture and Objects, the first book on architecture by the founder of object-oriented ontology (OOO), deepens the exchange between architecture and philosophy, providing a new roadmap to OOO’s influence on the language and practice of contemporary architecture and offering new conceptions of the relationship between form and function. Graham Harman opens with a critique of Heidegger, Derrida, and Deleuze, the three philosophers whose ideas have left the deepest imprint on the field, highlighting the limits of their thinking for architecture. Instead, Harman contends, architecture can employ OOO to reconsider traditional notions of form and function that emphasize their relational characteristics—form with a building’s visual style, function with its stated purpose—and constrain architecture’s possibilities through literalism. Harman challenges these understandings by proposing de-relationalized versions of both (zero-form and zero-function) that together provide a convincing rejoinder to Immanuel Kant’s dismissal of architecture as “impure.” Through critical engagement with the writings of Peter Eisenman and fresh assessments of buildings by Rem Koolhaas, Frank Gehry, and Zaha Hadid, Architecture and Objects forwards a bold vision of architecture. Overcoming the difficult task of “zeroing” function, Harman concludes, would place architecture at the forefront of a necessary revitalization of exhausted aesthetic paradigms.

"Postmodernism" has become the buzzword of contemporary society. Yet it remains baffling in its variety of definitions, contexts and associations. Beginning Postmodernism aims to offer clear, accessible and step-by-step introductions to postmodernism across a wide range of subjects. It encourages readers to explore how the debates about postmodernism have emerged from basic philosophical and cultural ideas. With its emphasis firmly on "postmodernism in practice," the book contains exercises and questions designed to help readers understand and reflect upon a variety of positions in the following areas of contemporary culture: philosophy and cultural theory; architecture and concepts of space; visual art; sculpture and the design arts; popular culture and music; film, video and television culture; and the social sciences.

Institution Architecture: Building the Avant-Garde takes a terminological, sociological, and semiological approach that develops by tracing the ‘avant-garde’ in a century span of literatures for a textual analysis, unpacking the text, and in a process analysis, interpreting it. The sources consist of 825 well-known, globally influential European, including Russian, architectural literatures of the extended 1920s, and of Anglo-Saxon literatures of the extended 1960s to the 2010s. The book traces the connotations that the term ‘avant-garde’ acquired in them and shows the different notions under the ‘avant-garde’ signifier, directing attention to the term’s early twentieth-century roots and modes; its 1960s rising usage, modes, and function; and its post–1960s to 2010s developments. It sheds light on the sociological topography of the avant-garde, and through the writings, on the ways in which the term and avant-gardism connected, the actors, agencies, and mediators therein, on the terms’ techniques and modes, indicating the reasons for its heretofore limited systematic inquiry. The book aims at unravelling a century-old ‘avant-garde’ mystic function for unlocking horizontal, plural, and transparent conversations about interdisciplinary futures of architecture, cross-disciplinary dialogues, and liberatory dynamics. The book will therefore be relevant to scholars and researchers interested in the avant-garde in architecture, and the avant-garde as a transdisciplinary subject.
