Supercrit 2: Venturi and Scott Brown: Learning From Las Vegas (March 2004)


Supercrits take major experimental projects that have ‘changed the weather’ of architectural thought and practice and put them back into the design studio ‘crit’ format for open public and expert debate.
Presented by Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown. Speakers include Robert Maxwell, Paul Davies, Sean Griffiths, Sam Jacob, David Dunster.
Publisher, John Morgan
“This was clearly a blast: inviting Venturi and Scott Brown to discuss their landmark work of 1968-72 with some jolly opinionated coves in a roomful of wry laughter. ‘Be sure to recognise what turns you on naturally, and resist liking what you’re supposed to like,’ advises Venturi.”
