Perhaps modernism is a continuing experiment which thankfully leaves some beautiful, some academically interesting and some boringly sterile works behind it.
I don’t think it can be distilled much further can it? Perhaps when somebody places a white box about the size of a coffin in the centre of a site and says – “we’ve finally finished”. We can get back to using beautiful and interesting materials and designs.
Perhaps the time is right for Art Nouveau II.
