Militant Modernism is a defence against Modernism's many
detractors. It looks at design, film and architecture - especially
architecture -- and pursues the notion of an evolved modernism that
simply refuses to stop being necessary. Owen Hatherley gives us new
ways to look at what we thought was familiar -- Bertolt Brecht, Le
Corbusier, even Vladimir Mayakovsky. Through Hatherley's eyes we
see all of the quotidian modernists of the 20th century - lesser
lights, too -- perhaps understanding them for the first time.
Whether we are looking at Britain's brutalist aesthetics, Russian
Constructivism, or the Sexpol of Wilhelm Reich, the message is
clear. There is no alternative to Modernism.
