Abstract

This book is based on the proceedings of the forum of the same name at the Royal Academy of Arts in London, where the participants discussed Popular Architecture and the various notions surrounding it, especially the ideas of "the popular" and "pop art". Speakers included Charles Jencks, Robert Maxwell, Terry Farrell, James Wines, Piers Gough, Geoffrey Broadbent and many other internationally renowned architects and critics. Examples of this kind of architecture are presented, including recent projects by Robert Stern, particularly his work at Euro Disney, the Chiat/Day/Mojo building by Claes Oldenburg and Frank Gehry, and the work of Basil Bayati and Tomas Taveira. There is also an exclusive interview of Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown by Robert Maxwell.
