About the Item

Pair of handcrafted wooden pedestal planters. Made out of tree trunk / branch with wooden pot planters. Creates a sculpture. Le brutalisme est un style architectural issu du mouvement moderne, qui connaît une grande popularité des années 1950 aux années 1970 avant de décliner peu à peu, bien que divers architectes s'inspirent encore des principes de ce courant[pas clair]. Il se distingue notamment par la répétition de certains éléments comme les fenêtres, par l'absence d'ornements et le caractère brut du béton. Les premiers exemples d'architecture brutaliste sont inspirés des travaux de l'architecte franco-suisse Le Corbusier, notamment de la Cité radieuse (1952). Parallèle au mouvement artistique du pop art, le brutalisme s'exprime notamment à travers la réalisation de bâtiments institutionnels et d'universités au Royaume-Uni, en France, en Suisse[1], en Europe de l'Est et aux États-Unis. Généralement de dimensions imposantes, ces édifices mettent en avant leur verticalité et la rudesse du béton, constituant une réaction aux courants architecturaux antérieurs (le style Beaux-Arts notamment), marqués par davantage de frivolité. Le terme de brutalisme a parfois servi à désigner de manière générale les édifices massifs en béton, devenus impopulaires à la fin du xxe siècle. Les principaux représentants de ce courant sont Marcel Breuer, Ernő Goldfinger, Jacques Kalisz et Bertrand Goldberg.
