"The Other Modern Movement charts an alternative history of modernist architecture. Rather than focusing on the Modern Movement's famous figureheads like Mies and Le Corbusier, Kenneth Frampton has selected eighteen less familiar architects whose work shows how extensive and complicated the modernist project really was. Each architect-some of whom are well-known, like Rudolf M. Schindler and Erich Mendelsohn, others far less so-is paired with a key work that is typologically programmatic and inseparable from the progressive nature of the modernist project. The resulting survey yields a diverse range of building types, ranging from town halls to department stores to schools.
