Modernism

Roughly 1860-1960 was the modern period


Pre-modern - Traditional
Post-modern - roughly 1960's - turning point

Crystal Palace (1851) year of great exhibition

Joseph Paxton - based on greenhouse

Pre-fabrication - factory produce elements for building so it is cheap and can be taken down and re-built easily.

Modernism attempts to be universal.

1860's beginning of modern Paris. All got re-built to accommodate commercialistation.

• Capitalism
• Commercialisation
• Comodity 

All kicked off by French revolution and industrial revolution.

Modern - about the present rather than the past.

Medusa
