What does "modern" mean in today's architectural world? Here to help answer that question this week on Burning Down the House is professor Theodore Prudon, president of DOCOMOMO. Join in as Curtis B. Wayne picks Theodore's brain on varied topics such as social engineering, modernism and the difference between building and architecture. This program was sponsored by S. Wallace Edwards & Sons.
"The more you become conscious of the physical reality, the more it will affect your approach and how you think."
"We are getting older, but our buildings are getting younger."
--Theodore Prudon, president of Docomomo on Burning Down the House
