- Summary:
- "Eduardo Souto de Moura is one of the world's leading architects. Focusing on 17 buildings and projects (completed, abandoned or unrealized), accompanied by Souto de Moura's writings, as well as an interview with the famed architect and employing Eadweard Muybridge's filmic technique (of shooting only one or two frames per second), Andersen masterfully brings forward what makes Souto de Moura an original: the incorporation of the passing of time into architectural designs, positing them within a history fraught with class struggle and societal changes, in a continuum with ruins - from which they may originate, and the which they will return - and with nature - which they frame, and by which they are framed." -- Container.
