project #6.33 - GLASS HOUSE: on having nothing to say about Philip Johnson by Brett Davidson.This limited printrun book takes a narrative excursion through the hinterland of modern America, architectural dystopia, and the post war European avant-garde as reflected in the author's reminiscences of his southern Texan upbringing. Utilizing the histrionics and problematics of American architect Philip Johnson, Davidson describes a part of America where Johnson's work, particularly his post-modern phase, received considerable patronage. Davidson's dislocated vantage point results in a moral uncertainty, an echoing of the multiplicity that fractured the certitude of the modernist project. This publication can be purchased from the Atopia Projects shop. Further project details here |
