The new paradigm of contemporary architecture
Charles Jencks was born in 1939 in Baltimore, Maryland (USA). During his long career he has written about thirty books, whose main theme insistently revolves around the death of Modern Movement architecture and the opening of new avenues of creativity for contemporary architecture.
Beginning with the publication of The Language of Pot-Modern Architecture (1977), he became the leading apologist for postmodern architecture, with all its successes and failures, its glories and its miseries.
Jencks continues to open avenues of interpretation to the architecture of the future that he predicts linked to the new conception of the same that is emerging from the sciences of complexity and contemporary culture.
