The quest for effectively producing broader and more inclusive narratives on the history of modern architecture, considering its manifestations on a world-wide basis, befitting a 21st century perspective, cannot be attained only from a theoretical debate; to put forward such a huge but necessary endeavour it is important to include and (re)consider a wide variety of world-wide examples. With that in mind, this paper will address both theoretical aspects and briefly, a single case study, examining some questions and queries on this subject as a starting point to help put forward a resignification process regarding the concepts and ideas of what should be called Modern architecture, from a broader and complex basis, either historically or geographically. The case study is a multi-cultural, multi-national example reuniting the experiences and peculiarities of two important, non-European, 20th century modernisms: Brazil's Embassy in Tokyo, designed by Brazilian nisei architect Ruy Ohtake. | |
