William J. R. Curtis Knihy
21. marec 1948
William J. R. Curtis je historik architektúry, ktorého dielo sa zameriava na architektúru dvadsiateho storočia. Jeho písanie sa vyznačuje snahou rozšíriť tradičný „kánon“ o širšie spektrum architektov z celého sveta, čím ponúka komplexnejší pohľad na architektonické dejiny. Curtisov prístup zdôrazňuje globálnu perspektívu a medzinárodné dialógy v architektúre. Jeho rozsiahly výskum a kritické hodnotenie prispievajú k hlbšiemu pochopeniu moderných architektonických prúdov.
