All Things Bright and Beautiful? Aesthetics in Life Today
This mini-series of seminars, run by the Thomas More Institute for residents of Netherhall House and their friends, examined the part(s) aesthetic considerations play in modern life and at the same time pointed up divergences – upon which evaluations naturally differ – between recent/contemporary approaches and more traditional or ‘canonical’ viewpoints.
Below are abridged versions of the presentations.
Architectural Aesthetics and the impact of Le Corbusier
Javier Castañón (Architectural Association School of Architecture, London)
Modernism: Styles and Philosophies
Piers Tattersall (Thomas More Institute)
Charlotte de Mille (Courtauld Institute, London)
