Description

In Episode 31 of A is for Architecture I speak with Maristella Casciato, Vikramaditya Prakash  & Daniel E. Coslett about the recent volume they edited, Rethinking Global Modernism: Architectural Historiography and the Postcolonial, published by Routledge this year. The book is a collection of essays and studies which critically reflect of 'other moderns', those spaces, places, people and artefacts which are definitively modern but which, for reasons discussed in the podcast, have historically been excluded from established discourse and the canon. It's a recurrent theme for this podcast, reflecting on the peculiar gatekeeping of modernist architecture that has dominated scholarship, architectural education and public perceptions of what modernism is and, by extension, what it is to be modern.   
I was fortunate enough to be introduced to Maristella, Daniel and Vikram by Fran Ford at Routledge, Vikram also hosts a podcast, Architecture Talk, which you should also listen to. We also touch on another recent book which Vikram wrote, One Continuous Line: Art, Architecture and Urbanism of Aditya Prakash, published by Mapin in 2021, and with an introduction by Maristella. 
Enjoy!
