MOMA- Museum of Modern Architecture

Moma - museum of modern architecture
This exhibition was organized by limkokwing architecture student as part of their architecture culture module submission. well, this exhibition is all about the history of modern architecture whereby as we can see, modernism also known as.. death of religion..meaning the birth of new ideas and individualism. For example, during the gothic period, buildings are designed in such away to show wealth and power, having lots of ornaments and massive huge..u can see this clearly on gothic churches. but during modernism, after world war 2..people started to move from the norm. wanting to be independent, and having own perspectives.. some individual, came up with their own ideas and theory and thus now, we can see different styles or architecture.. such as minimalism, pop, tectonic and lots more. So from this post, u can roughly know some stuffs on modern architecture =) enjoy!
