Author: Stefano Perego (ed.)
Once hailed as icons of radical experimentation, the concrete structures of the mid-to-late 20th century continue to spark both admiration and debate. Through all new photography from Stefano Perego, this title invites readers to reflect on the era that shaped these brutalist relics, capturing the visionary modernism they embody and the ideals they represent. Whether celebrated landmarks or forgotten outliers, it unpacks their paradoxical nature: raw yet deliberate, unadorned yet evocative.By capturing their permanence in diverse settings, this book encourages a deeper examination of what sustains their relevance – be it their monumentality, audacity, or material honesty.
