About me:
In the 1960s, the rule-breaking architecture and radical theories of Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown shocked the architectural establishment. Today, they are still controversial, yet scholars agree that their work has profoundly directed architectural thought in the second half of the 20th century.
In their provocative parlance, vulgar is good, tasteful is bad, and the ugly and ordinary almost always triumphs over the heroic and original.
Drawing inspiration from such wide-ranging areas of study as history, literature, sociology, urban planning, psychology, art history and mathematics, Venturi and Scott Brown have worked to broaden the scope of their profession and pioneered an approach that is multidisciplinary, multicultural and in constant change.
The film is the story of their origins, influences, ideas and struggles, and the manifestation of these in their life..s work which the filmmaker, their son, hopes will inspire all those whose ideas go beyond the established parameters.
